And I can't wait to see how much of my old gear/game currency is useless on my old characters!

He also threatened to sue Cryptic in order to force them into releasing Dental members' private info.

And for your max tier ship, you probably can just grind out that anniversary event freebie ship once that becomes available. Generally the freebie ships are pretty decent for endgame content.

I'm still sad that to this day they haven't added an option to admiralize your starter ship. Mirandas were in the original STF at Wolf 359, MY CANON

CBS is so fuckin' weird about this game, like it actually matters one whit to anyone worth listening to. Star Trek is an extra special case since the rights are split between CBS and Paramount. There's a bit more to it than this, but basically CBS has the television show material and Paramount has the movie material, with TOS kind of shared between them. It's why we haven't seen anything from JJTrek in STO yet (outside of blatant ripoffs like the Avenger, or strange loopholes like the Tal Shiar destroyer/Narada), and I have a strong suspicion that CBS is trying to focus their brand on TNG and the other series they have a better claim to while downplaying TOS material. In the case of the STO Excelsior, I suspect CBS only gave in about allowing it to be endgame-viable because it was seen onscreen at a few points in TNG and DS9.

At this point, I think CBS is probably just happy anyone is still paying them (instead of Paramount) for Star Trek licensing.

Its always mildly amusing to me that there is some suit at CBS whose only job is determining canon authenticity in STO.

Asimo posted:Yeah, one of the devs (Geko?) actually personally lobbied (begged) the people responsible for it at CBS until they gave in, and apparently it took a fair bit of effort that was only done because it was his personal favorite ship. The bolded is...notable. Consider the thing's layout. It was one of the only 'Pure' cruisers to have access to Attack Pattern Omega for a very long time.

Since there's nothing in today's patch, probably next Thursday. It's probably a big patch, so they might push it up to Tuesday, but they haven't said anything concrete yet. I think they said the anniversary was coming this month, but they could push to the first week in February. Based on the devblogs posted so far, yes, it will be a Kobali cruiser. Since we're getting a new primary specialization, it'll probably be the first Command ship in the game.

Oh hey, new tribble patch! With massive needs to CCA, the only space queue pubbies still do.  20% less marks or so, the optional is now 5 minutes, they fixed the close safe zone, and the hard failure condition is now three dead so you're reliant on pubbies not having shitboats. It probably will still be one of the easier queues, but it's pretty clear that PWE just wants to make every queue a tedious grind with non-zero failure chance, huh? Don't forget that the bosses for BHE and trans dimensional whatever are being massively buffed too.  I know this won't be read by anyone who matters, but seriously, get hosed Cryptic. I've gotten bored of ground queues again already and all I really do now is log in, doff a while, and maybe roll CCE if I'm lazy or bored. At this rate there won't be anything worth bothering with in a PUG. I really pity the poor pubbies who were struggling even before these "fixes".
