My patch notes for the afternoon of 11/13/12: Subscription: Canceled (Gold subscriber since day 1 of Launch, 33+ months) Adjusted Perfect World revenues as follows: Pre-Nerf - $15 US Dollars per month paid by me Now - $ 0 US Dollars per month paid by me Purchases: In the past, I had made numerous purchases of Cryptic…

The sad thing about canceling your STO subscription (I know, I did so yesterday afternoon after seeing the garbage pushed live with Season 7) -- you push the cancel button, the green "Active Subscription" text on your account page becomes red noting the cancellation and the cancel button becomes an "activate subscription"…

The one true currency in Star Trek Online and the only currency that dstahl and the PWE overlords are concerned with is the currency they receive when you use your credit cards to buy Zen points. Everything else is to distract the players so they will enter their credit card info...

I canceled my gold subscription (since day 1 launch, 33+ months, 1015+ days uninterrupted, not grandfathered in during the $200 LTS money grab) after seeing all the garbage that got pushed through in Season 7. It was a real sad decision because I had wanted to see the game's third anniversary in Feb 2013, and was content…

I took it to the next level of "not logging on". I ripped the band-aid off and canceled my gold subscription yesterday after seeing the dismal state that the game is currently in after Season 7. I have been a subscriber since day 1 of launch, uninterrupted 33+ months, 1015+ days -- the old fashioned way, not grandfathered…

LOL. This comes less than 8 hours from the SEVENTH anniversary (November 15) of the infamous release of the "New Game Experience" patch for Star Wars Galaxies -- not to mention the imminent launch of Star Wars: The Old Republic going free to play. Well, too little, too late. Dstahl and devs should have listened to the many…

They lost at least one long time, used to be loyal, gold subscriber since day 1 of launch (33+ months uninterrupted, 1015+ days the old fashioned way not grandfathered in during the $200 LTS money grab promo). Yep, I canceled my subscription after seeing the mess that Season 7 is. Sad, really because I wanted to play…

Pre-Season 7 I've been failing on some alts doing the confiscate contraband mission regularly using TWO purple quality Security Officers (the required DOFF for maxing success), none of these purples have negative traits, some even had 1 or 2 positive traits.
-
I agree with OP 100% The situation is worsened if you enjoy playing alt characters, or Heaven forbid, take a walk on the wild side and play your KDF officer(s). Since they charge for extra character slots, maybe they'll see a direct impact in their profits from limiting or killing the progression of alts. I had sick…

I voted with my wallet this afternoon and canceled my gold subscription (since day 1 of launch 33+ months, 1015 days the old fashioned way, not grandfathered in by swiping my credit card for $200 during the LTS promo) this afternoon. Guess I wont be seeing the 3rd anniversary after all. To prove they don't care what you…
-
I voted with my wallet and canceled my gold subscription this afternoon and will no longer buy any C-Points (or it's ugly cousin Zen). I doubt that I will even log into the game anymore. Season 7 has just left a bad taste in my mouth between the constant player complaints and the lack of developer/management responses, I…
-
They dropped it on Tuesday because Star Wars: The Old Republic goes free to play on Thursday. Ironically, the 15th is the SEVENTH anniversary of the notorious NGE fiasco in Star Wars Galaxies. I'm just saying.
-
After 33 uninterrupted months of being a gold subscriber, I canceled my subscription this afternoon. Want to know how I figured out that the devs and management don't care about what subscribers (or f2pers) think? There was no survey asking why you are canceling your subscription, no way to leave feedback, nothing. They…

* The Doff grinder price increase is now in game on Holodeck, the prices are as listed in patch notes with the General NPC charging up to 5000 dilithium to swap 5 x Blue DOFFs for 1 x Purple doff (up from 250 dilith. as recently as Monday night). * I saw no increases at the fleet vendor who sells the common DOFF boxes,…
-
I know!!!! I have never been one to complain and have always been a real advocate for Star Trek Online, usually deflecting the complainers at ESD who were whining about the most recent real or imagine slight to their F2P lifestyle. Along with the uninterrupted subscription fees (do the math 30+ months @ $15 versus the $200…
-
I logged on one of my Klingon officers to look at stuff (was checking fleet Duty Officer vendor to make sure Cryptic didn't jack up the prices, which was a rumor I read in ESD chat) and decided I'd set up some Marauding missions since my feds needed contraband. Well, the way the rewards are listed in the results window…

Not worth the time and very disturbing in light of other dilithium sinks added in Season 7. I've never been so disappointed in an upcoming content release as I am with S7. I had really hoped to be around to see my third anniversary (gold subscriber since day 1 of launch, yes, I did the 1000 day rewards the HARD way, I…
-
Their Database must be borked... I saw the email go down. I tried to ask in chat, no chat. So, I went to fleet base to buy some DOFFs from the vendor, it took like 5 minutes to purchase 8 boxes of common DOFFs (very slow, sluggish performance). I tried clicking on the box(es) and it would take 30 seconds for the DOFF to…

Yes, this was (conditionally) good news and a relief for small fleets hitting the brick wall of upgrading to Tier 3 and above. Conditionally = it doesn't mean that 240 green DOFFs needed to upgrade to Tier 3 base now becomes 24,000 or 240,000 white commons (it could happen). The dilithium costs for tier 2 to 3 and above…
-
I'll still take a wait and see approach but this is the first good news from the DEVs on the DOFF changes at SFA. I hope the trade off relieves some of the harsh grind that small fleets were/are feeling. The dilithium costs of projects upgrading to Tier 3 and above are still troubling, but if you don't have to squander…
-
The dilithium costs for Duty Officer actions at Star Fleet Academy are a huge mistake and will impact small fleets and solo players. These changes will drive casual players away. The reputation tab will further dilute material you might donate to fleet projects and adds two new marks you'll have to grind in order to…
-
Reputation tab on character sheet: Yes, I will call it more grinding because that is what it is. And since it uses the same items (except for the two new mark varieties) it is another way of diluting the materials that would be donated to fleet base. The dilithium costs early on (first two projects of each reputation) seem…
-
Now we know why they extended maintenance from 4 hours to 8 hours... Sigh.
-
I've noticed on the common Tactical Personnel box you buy for 750 fleet credits from the base vendor that the drop rates drastically changed about a month or so back (stealth nerf or stealth bug, unsure of which). Before this time period, you pretty much were guaranteed a common Security DOFF of some variety at roughly…

When I run out of DOFF missions to fill the 20+ slots (and I've maxed 10-11 of the categories on most of my level 50 characters), I usually do the following: I view the main window and note the amount of CXP I have in each category, then I go looking for missions that will reward the most amount CXP in the categories that…
-
Then I'll predict a lot of players will follow suit (and be gone -- leave the game). With the S7 dilithium "tax" on Duty Officer exchanges and other dilithium sinks being added to the game, I see a disturbing trend by the developers that I don't like. I've been a gold subscriber since launch day (uninterrupted, just hit…
-
You missed my point -- I'm not saying that the amount of changes or the scope of the changes approach those in the CU/NGE -- I'm saying that the clueless stupidity BEHIND the changes is similar and the aftermath could be similar (people quit playing a game that they once loved because of the changes made by devs who…
-
^^ This I've had the upgrade to Tier 3 base project active for over a week and my small fleet hasn't even been able to get HALF of the 648k dilithium donated. We do continue to complete 3x Tier 2 Military projects since we're close 50k exp on that grind, but again, that opens up the upgrade Tier 3 Shipyard project which is…
