Our new Indie Games subforum is now open for business in G&T. Go and check it out, you might land a code for a free game. If you're developing an indie game and want to post about it,
follow these directions. If you don't, he'll break your legs! Hahaha! Seriously though.
Our rules have been updated and given
their own forum. Go and look at them! They are nice, and there may be new ones that you didn't know about! Hooray for rules! Hooray for The System! Hooray for Conforming!

Yes ground pvp. And yes, I already use the "Switch between split beam and the sniper rifle" tactic. But there a little thing I have called weapons malfunction that makes those 2 big weapons mean jack for one person. And from my exp, after the late open beta ground pvp "fixes" they put in, the 2-shotting is gone unless is from expose/exploit. Anyone with decent sheilds can last the secondary fire of each. What gets me most of the time now, aside from the expose/exploiting, are all the fucking holds. I wish the "anti-hold" character traits had additions of "descreases the amount of time you are held" to go along with +resistances.
Man. I really enjoy this game when it works. But I think this head-start weekend has proven beyond any doubt that the game is simply not ready for launch.
I've submitted about 5 or 6 bug reports. I'm guessing I've had a fairly average experience so far. Assuming everyone reports as many (or more) than me, Cryptic is probably overwhelmed right now with issues.
That's why I have 2
ironically, both times the server has gone down have been while I was rearranging my tribbles. wouldn't it be amusing if my tribbles were breaking the server.
Server crashes would be out of game issues for sure though.
Also, can we still add a poll to this thread? I'm curious what career path people are picking.
Yup he showed up in the Star Trek: Countdown comics as Captain of the Enterprise which was leading up to the new Star Trek film that came out the other year, it tied things together like the destruction of Romulus after Spock/Picard tried to stop it, Nero going nuts, Geordi having created the Jellyfish(the ship Spock used) and other stuff like that.
It also had a lot of people thinking Worf got killed in one issue since he kind of got impaled in the gut aboard Nero's vessel.
There was a website which had a detailed list of all the things it references, but I can't find it anywhere now.
EDIT: Eheh. Thought it would've been Memory Alpha or Beta, but it turns out TVTropes was it (under Sure Why Not).
Oh trust me they are there. Just not to glaring on the Fed side. Over here in Qu'nos, we have a few:
Klingon PVP vendors in Ganalda dont work.
When joining a PvP queue, the game MUST kick us from other queues! Since we can't join a game while in another game, this is causing matches to start short handed or even empty
Klingon 'officer candidates' that show up via those periodic pop-up quests are always "alien engineers". I understand that on the Fed side it's random, but we ONLY get alien engineers.
PvP is rewarding damage but not support.
Still have the "waiting period" at the end of the PvP matches.
And I'm an Eng, btw.
Oh you silly goose I want my last two hours back.
Edit: And it was my own fault, from a google search.
Ed & Larry : "Doesn't matter."
I recently was gifted a thing in Steam. If it was from you, thank you very much!
Don't worry man it's just the beta. It'll all get fixed in time for release.
Here's my main: Captain Luke Charter of the USS Horizon. I picked engineering/cruisers because using turrets sounds fun on the ground, and I'm in love with Enterprise ships.
Here are my alts:
Captain Lydia Shran of the Escort vessel USS Banshee (heh):
And for my science captain, it took me awhile to find what I wanted to do, but then I decided to make a sectoid. He still needs a bit of work, namely his height, but I'll do it later. Captain Grim'Sen of the USS Olympus:
One cool feature is that you can save the costumization of your characters, and reuse them with your BOs by loading the costume. As long as it's the same race/gender, they end up looking identical. So in any game I play I have all three on the bridge.
Looks that way. I got booted too.
PSN : Bolthorn
They REALLY need to communicate better.
"STO Server: Going down more than your mom"
You were having WAAAAY too much fun with the boobie-slider on Lydia.
And yes, the servers are down again. I was in the middle of a NICE ground fight versus klingons. I drew too much aggro, and I was losing. It was so much fun I forgot to play ME2 today.
hm wait a sec. sever went down after I logged off to eat? oh joy.

Lighter gravity makes everything bigger.
Agreed. The headstart is being judge 1000x harsher than beta, since people now have the notion that since these characters aren't getting wiped, THIS IS LIVE. And rightfully so.
It always says maintenance when it goes down. Odds are it crashed.
......shhhh......
!
It was very much fun grouping. And hectic at times when everyone decides to shoot something different. :lol:
At least we were the Miranda fleet that could!
say what
You'll never guess.
