You offered some criticism and asked to not be taken as a troll. I offered some explanation of my point of view. You come back with hyperbole and insults. I don't think you are trolling but I feel you haven't made a good faith effort to understand my perspective. We've both shared our opinions and I suppose we'll leave it…
I don't think some folks understand that, at least for me, if I were really negative about the game I wouldn't spend hours a week podcasting about it and even more time than that reading, researching and writing for it. From my POV it feels like we complain about the things that bother us -- lag, loadouts, crafting mods to…
To be fair Diplomacy 4 already rewards way more than any of the others, given that you get a Title and Doff as usual plus a transwarp, cross-faction Boff and costume. Then the Diplomatic Immunity perk and (broken/nonexistent) voting privilege. Compare with say, Espionage. That said, I'm curious too!
Hey dahminus, I'm not on the Shipyards as much as I used to be but I have seen your stuff for sure (I'm really the main person anything like a build monkey in the group, such as it is). Actually, maybe you could help me out with a request from one of our listeners and we could post it to the FB page et. al. as he is doing…
Taco that is one of the creepiest things I've ever learned in this game. Thank you forever. What should we call these invisible horrors that beckon us to their laps? Rearenderman?
I couldn't agree more. I've mentioned before that I've moderated forums in the past and thus empathize that it's a challenging task, all the moreso when you are potentially "policing" paying customers. The default structure of forums doesn't serve the average player in my opinion, and I think the responsibility for finding…
I'm sorry that it came off offensively, that was certainly not our intent in any way. Our reaction to that specific comment was simply our surprise at the content as not all of us had read each piece of feedback prior to recording that segment. I'm not sure why you would be more offended by us finding it amusing than by…
The only discussion of the forums in this weeks episode came from listener feedback that was solicited in the previous weeks episode (#186) due to our discussion of an article about MMO forums. I know the quote Vestereng referred to comes directly from a post made by a listener. My apologizes if that was not clear, we try…
I just finished the Overture series by KineticImpulser. Great story, humor, and encyclopedic knowledge of Trek lore. Probably an hour+ each for the 6 part though I found 5 and 6 somewhat longer. He also his previews of each part on his YouTube channel under the same name that are pretty good and worth checking out!
The Constitution-class is proscribed by CBS/Paramount from being used beyond certain guidelines. The Defiant, which we also have a full interior for, is not, and we have had an upgrade path for that. The Intrepid and Galaxy also have upgrade paths from T4 and Refit, to T5 Retrofit and Fleet. Sufficient grounds to call it,…
Fantastic independent fan production! I was lucky enough to see a midnight screening during STLV in a full sized movie theater which was awesome! I am looking forward to the full film that comes of this. They are clearly on their way.
Many people have asked for a canon Intrepid/Voyager interior over the years. I don't think putting the time and resources into making it at a point where it can serve a dual purpose is bad at all. And I do also think it is a data point suggestive that existing ships will be upgraded to a level where people who want to fly…
No worries. :) And look, we all play the game and have invested large amounts of time and/or money into it. While I'm keenly interested in finding out in what manner ships will be updated, I simply cannot believe that they will NOT be brought up to par. Heck, if anything they have brought many more ships up to T5 level…
No, you're right, though they didn't seem at liberty to go into greater detail yet it was stated multiple times that existing top tier ships wouldn't be obsoleted. It doesn't sound like ships will be upgraded via crafting at this time but I got the impression that some existing Mk XII gear will be upgraded that way. In a…
Haha, he's had that sig for a long time. Standing joke that when some new interesting feature comes up, Elijah would often say, "I'd pay 60 dollars for that!" We appreciate donations but the Indiegogo campaign I think has some genuinely awesome pledge rewards on top of that! Jayce Jae'sien@xeperi P1 Peon
Hey FPN, this is Jayce. Enzo and I seem to have missed each other Friday night. Sorry to disappoint but we will reschedule as soon as possible! We are excited about having him on the show just have been running into issues coordinating for which I apologize. Jayce Veladorn@xeperi
Yeah, this is a silly question. I'd be happy to have Chevron Sep console work on the GalX when they patch in Saucer Sep as long as I can put my Saucer Sep console on my Odyssey Star Cruiser and get Chevron mode. : )
Well I'd love it if they did something, as the upgraded Assault Cruiser right now makes the Dreadnought Cruiser look much less impressive. The Dread doesn't need much! It's just not quite on par, just like the other Galaxy variants aren't quite on par with some of the other comparable cruisers. I'm not a proponent of…
Yeah all your tac consoles should be damage boosting. I'd swap the cloak to a sci slot and use the other one for a Field Generator of as high a quality as you can. DPS will be increased by a lot of factors in actual play, don't worry about what the tooltip says. My tooltip damage is 2026 total but I've parsed over 7kdps…
You know, it's been so long I don't even know what I'd use Saucer Sep for other than probably increased turn rate. I'm pretty happy with the build I'd been using on my Gal-X, I almost exclusively PVE (plus some Ker'rat) and I've never had a problem in STFs or anywhere else. Still, more fun out of my favorite ship is always…
Hah! "Yes" is a great answer. Though I've never actually doubted it was still coming and am more concerned with the 13 month delay so far. :D Thanks, altechachan, for an incremental update.
They tweeted a pic of this working last Feb. 9th. As recently as November we were told it was still slated "before Season 8" which is now coming up. So I see no reason to think it is not happening, I just am hoping for a concrete answer as I think it's about time for one.
It's not so much that this is desired for the proc but so that we can slot other energy weapons on our Dreads as well as consoles to support them that will also boost the phaser lance. As it is we generally all run phaser weapons and phaser relays on our Dreads so that it all synergizes. This energy module concept would…
Some of you folks are truly setting yourself up for rage/disappointment. Based on everything that has been leaked and said/hinted at over the last month or two, it is almost 100% guaranteed that the Wells/Korath will be related to a new temporal lockbox. All the people saying, "But they've always been neutral ships so…
