Hmmm weird to respond to myself but for some reason when I beamed off planet to restart it yet again the mission unlocked and I was able to complete it. Very, very, annoying though. I think a group must not be spawning properly or something.

Thanks for the advice, I'll try this and see if I can make it work. I also filed a ticket, so if I can't get past it this way hopefully they will fix it at some point.

I rarely post and am just looking to get back into STO again after a bit of a hiatus. I wanted to respond to this, but neither "Yes or No" really covers my opinion of The Foundry. To keep it as simple as possible I think the idea of player-created content is wonderful, and done correctly it can address the biggest problems…

Leave Tarsi alone, of if she MUST be changed give her at least one trait that is space-usable. I'll be miffed after turning her into a temporal officer if all of a sudden I need to replace her on my bridge crew (in space) due to not have a talent that contributes anything in the long run. She's supposed to be your…

I just wanted to sound off myself and say I've run into problems as well. At first I was going to donate $10 for the T6 ship bundle but the site hung up and wouldn't let me order them. I tried again yesterday and the T6 ships were gone but I figured it was a worthy cause (being a victim of bullying myself) and an awesome…

Well, all exaggeration and satire aside (even in my solutions) I'll be brutally honest, this isn't a new idea. A couple of other MMOs have tried similar things over the years a few different MMOS have come up with the idea of formal guild alliances and vassalage systems like what's mentioned here, as a way of formalizing…
-
I confess I feel like I'm being toyed with given that the event starts on the 4th and we still haven't gotten the stats. That said I am hoping that not only will the ship have a fully featured interior including Dabo and such like the D'kora but also places to put the Latinum trophies from gambling. I will also take this…

I've been playing on and off since launch my main Phoebe is probably one of the first joined trill to ever be rolled. :) That said, I'm a paid player, and frequently donate to the game even when I don't want anything specifically to support it and keep it running and new content coming. I strongly disagree with some things…
-
Well, despite the thread I just wrote I think part of the problem is that the stats for some of these are now balanced around lvl 60 characters using Mk. XIV gear. Also remember you have *4* ship trait slots to fill which will probably make your characters a lot more powerful once you fill them. My issue hasn't been dying…

I'd point out that the Kazon are SUPPOSED to suck to a legendary degree. These guys had trouble with one tiny science ship using entire fleets. They are so pathetic they are a species The Borg refuses to assimilate (7 of 9 actually said so). If they gave this ship parody it would sort of defeat the purpose of Star Trek's…
-
Well, I think the idea is to get people to buy the new ships. I'm guessing they are probably planning on asking more than the $25 a pop the T5 ones are going for, or at least the same price. They pretty much want a rush where all the regular players run out to pay top dollar for a new tier ship, as opposed to just keeping…
-
Which pretty much means if you fly a T5-U ship, your not going to be able to use the specialist Boff abilities, thus cutting you out of the new Boff system. My understanding is that those seats that allow the use of the new Boffs are an additional thing to the normal complement of slots. That's how it reads to me. You…
-
Actually my pessimistic vision involves them adding a new fleet holding "Delta Stardock" (or a similar name) or a T6 level to star bases, and then having fleets sink a ton of Dil and resources into the ability to make Fleet T6. :) So basically, people upgrade their ships to grind with, so the results of that grinding can…
-
I apparently read it differently than you did then, and it seems like I'm not the only one with that impression. It seems to me that "Hybrid" seat they are talking about which will be on all starting T6 ships (but might not be present on all of them) is supposed to be in addition to whatever else it had. It also mentions…
-
How did you wind up paying that much, I thought the 3 pack was a straight $50 US (5000 Zen) unless there is some game being played with currency conversions. To be sort of fair, while I can see how this sucks, the game has been selling ships with the expectation that they would be replaced at rank up. For example if you…
-
I'm not sure about that, the way it sounds to me is that it's a a whole new system with a set of abilities that will need to be filled with a Boff that has those abilities, with details on the new Boffs still to be revealed. The impression I get is that you'll have your regular crew doing your regular stuff, but then need…
-
KDF has no right to complain about their flagship being a garbage scow, I mean look at the Fed version which has two "pet" consoles which can't be used together at the same time. I mean at least each of the KDF's flagship consoles does something distinct and they can all work. Not to mention they don't make you guys worry…
-
The basic problem comes down to the new Boff slot and ability sets, where the T6 ships get access to that and the T5U ships do not, basically meaning those who captain them are cut out of the new space upgrade. The trait issue is less of a problem because as this has read, the trait you get from leveling a T6 ship is…
-
It won't happen but I've actually wanted to see some unaffiliated ships show up in the game. I can't remember the episode name, but they had this one cool ship used by a crew of mercenaries Picard went undercover to infiltrate. I'm kind of hoping this cool new ship is something a bit more unexpected than say a…
-
Well from my perspective I thought the Voth Bulwark was cool looking (so ugly it sort of inverts on itself and becomes appealing), and makes me feel sort of like the pilot of a Captain-Harlock type space blimp.... I spent real money and a *LOT* of in game resources to get one of these with all 3 consoles (requiring the…
-
Not sure if anyone at Cryptic is reading after 51 pages or cares, but I wanted to say this doesn't sound terrible except for one important point: I think certain ships should get a full Tier 6 upgrade. To put things into perspective certain ships like say the Voth Bulwark or Jem Hadar attack ship are supposed to be "the…
-
Actually it *IS* useful feedback. Just by using a term like "Power Creep" and letting it slip unchecked into the vernacular of this kind of conversation, it's becoming apparent that this feedback is both necessary and has been held back too long. If the "reasons" for the changes are accurate, then it seems Cryptic has…
-
My basic attitude is this. The Reputation system and it's traits were put into the game in lieu of more levels, given how it would be problematic to add more skill points, or come up with higher tier ships. The "power creep" here is simply the effect of "leveling up" and advancing a character. Just as say an Admiral is…
-
I just caught this, and without reading all 650 pages going back to January of last year, I'd point out that they are trying to be *somewhat* canon with Star Trek despite how far they stretch things. In the overall scheme of things the "Galaxy Class" ship is pretty weak, it's not really optimized for combat, and in several…
-
I like some of the things done with Season 9, the new Kit system for example is great, and graphics updates are always a good thing, though to be honest a bigger problem has been some of the voice acting. That said I am going to say flat out this new Trait system has to go. I understand WHY it was done, but understand that…
-
Well, for one I do think they should be required to follow "gear tiers" and do things like the Borg grinds before being allowed to grind for even better gear. However my major point here is that when you provide the token short cuts for rep grinding alts it kind of hurts veterans who were putting in tons of resources on…
-
Oh and please be careful not to trample my space lawn too badly while milling out to criticize me (waving cane) this post will probably be unpopular, but it still took a lot of effort to get just like I wanted.... (pours prune juice into his beer hat and waits to see if there are any responses).

RG almost 100% I used to be a RP in other games like WoW (wipe the raid until we get it right... we won but our time sucked we should have been faster with our one shot kill... etc...) and kind of burned out with the whole hardcore attitude even while I was playing it. I say almost 100% because I still maintain some degree…

When I just opened the PVE queue to do some missions for the marks event, I saw all of the names of the missions (Colony Invasion, etc...) re-write to be replaced by the title "Pornstar's Game", it happens in about a second after opening the queue/mission list. This is not being done through private sessions (it's the…
