If they want to make boarding parties better, they should make them go faster, and make boarding parties cause hull damage while they're affecting you.

I kind of like the direction they were going with the boarding party doffs. Double the amount of shuttles, give them point defence weapons. Make them a swarm of super light fighters instead of three useless targets.

^^^ They were good conceptually, but they're ineffective. Also, I can't look at a single one of those kind of bios without thinking of Preechr's bio anymore.

Can I get an invite to the chat channel? My ingame handle is the pinnacle of all my imagination and creativity, Fewd@Fewd Is there any reason to join a guild in this game? Or fleet or whatever. Re-joining SFD would perhaps generate more disgust towards me, but any other good reasons? Also why are so many dudes vigorously living their slave girl fantasies through this space game goddamn

A great deal of the best gear in this game is bought from your fleet with fleet credits, which are earned by contributing to fleet projects. Credits do at the very least transfer if you change fleets and will work on another fleet's base anyway, so if you don't want to join Dental in particular you can join another fleet, earn your credits there and then get an invite to Dental's starbase to buy the top-end gear we've unlocked.

Oh, I see. Are the fleet credits gained via solo or group activities? I've been in enough goon guilds to know most mmorpg goons are playing around US prime times and the guilds are usually deserted during Euro evenings.

You get fleet credits by donating various materials to the fleet projects. These can range from basic commodities like provisions, common doffs, refined dilithium and fleet marks. Fleet marks you mostly get from running group content (you can pug this, don't need to do it with fleet members) but everything else is just stuff you'll have to hand/be able to pick up from a vendor/exchange.

I've been in enough goon guilds to know most mmorpg goons are playing around US prime times and the guilds are usually deserted during Euro evenings. Fleet Marks, which are the most efficient way to get Fleet Credits, are mainly gotten during STFs - this game's equivalent of raids. But this endgame is super casual - most STFs are five-man and take all of 15 minutes. MikeJF fucked around with this message at 12:01 on Aug 7, 2014 |

May want to drop that APB for an APO just to get a tractor beam immunity. If a vaper comes after you you've got no way of countering the number one defence killing power. Plus most people will have their tac team running 24/7 so your APB won't do a whole lot.

http://pastebin.com/5rb6SxG3 You told me to post something funny. Look at the reaction I get out of this group of pubbies by saying "morning." Oh wait, they are goons. As I said in the chat log, I am not even doing a puppetmaster thing. It's hilarious how bent out of shape some of you are getting because I dared criticize lovely trolling.

I was going to ask whether Cryptic deleted the bio/gave Preecher a warning, but I remembered PWE only takes punitive action (and grudgingly) when someone makes literal death threats or casually mentions AutoHotKey in local. Edit: Or if you kill Branflakes in a pvp event.

Well I never, it's a lull so what does Cryptic pull out? Bugship promo time! And a few slight tidbits in this expansion announcement. quote:The expansion features a level cap increase to 60, the first level cap increase in over four years. As captains progress past level 50, they are allowed to train in specializations, picking up additional skills to broaden their capabilities. The areas of specialization, and how captains progress in them will be revealed in future postings as we work our way toward the expansion launch in October of this year. So a return of release-era specialisation skill trees and stealing the BoP universal seating.

Doesn't that rom doff pack come with the legacy of Romulus pack? Could someone just flip alts for unlimited survivor packs and lobi/bugships?

# ? Aug 7, 2014 19:05 |

No it's a different pack of preset Reman doffs in the legacy bundle. You do get 30 keys but that's a once/account claim.
