Actually you'd be surprised how many so-called P2W ships in STO are actually utter garbage. Don't get me wrong - they absolutely exist, but just because someone spends hundreds of dollars on lobi doesn't mean they won't decide to buy an overpriced swirly dog turd.

STO is and remains unplayable due to the sheer choking lag. Tried to run a Bug Hunt right now and was alterating between twitching in place, hitting buttons in the hope that something connects, and dying of something I didn't even see. And then afterwards I got promptly booted from the game. At this point I don't know why I'm still trying.

Lag actually seemed improved for me this weekend. Was even able to actually start consistently succeeding in pugs, maybe people are back for the dil week and quality of pugs got better. BHE is still a crap shoot. We even had a goon group fail over the weekend running it. Honestly if they're going to keep making ground and space more and more demanding were going to need separate trait loadouts specific to each. Having to swap out nine traits anytime I decide to want to go to ground or space leaves me just sticking to one region over the other and I bet a lot of terrible pugs on ground are just people not bothering to change traits.

Maybe after a few months of play I'll be bitching with the rest of you, but right now I'm having fun So when do I replace my starter ship as a Klingon? (just killed a bunch of rommies in a farm)

I dig the look of the Rom ship that didn't get a solo shot, up-swept wings are always cool. Most of the KDF stuff looks like generic cargo transports from X-wing, just a slight bit more detail. I almost hate to say it and give anyone an excuse to be lazy but most fed ships go way too far with the idea, I'd be happy with it all being slight variations of the Galaxy and Excelsior but I can understand people want ships that stand out. I was going to make a joke where I posted ships from wing commander and x wing and said they were new KDF ships announced but even despite the 1992-6 graphics they all looked kinda cool. Even when I looked up descent I was like, nope, those are actually kinda cool.

Just delete the Luna class and re-release them as the Command Ships, nobody'll notice and it looks way less dumb.

MikeJF posted:Just delete the Luna class and re-release them as the Command Ships, nobody'll notice and it looks way less dumb. Honestly with Command, thematically, you've got two options. Release upgraded versions of the flagships (Odyssey, Bortas, Scimitar) as actual command flagships, or focus on fighter command and make it a pet specialisation, releasing carriers to support. Naturally, Cryptic did neither.

I like the rom one with the really swept forward wings. And the blocky retarded kdf one.

That's not Cryptic's fault though: That's already a bad Klingon design The other ships look very Klingon Academy era Klank designs, which are awesome. Especially the Quad Nacelle with the two tighter together ones top and the traditional winglet ones bottom.

Also the Qu'Daj. But I mean it could be argued that the Battlecruiser originally lifted a lot from Klingon ships in TNG and DS9.

I like all the klink ships to be honest. They look klingon, they look plausibly star trekky. Compare and contrast with the fed intel poo poo.

So are these all going to be cruisers or what?

# ? Feb 10, 2015 15:58 |

I'm wondering if the reason there's no command carrier is that they're planning a specific "Wing Leader" or something specialization that buffs fighters specifically.
|
# ? Feb 10, 2015 19:41 |

I guess what I mean is since command is so torpedo focused (from what I can tell) aren't crusiers pretty lousy for torpedos?
|
# ? Feb 10, 2015 20:08 |
|
Yeah all the good torps have a 90 degree arc and are awkward on any beam array build. The other issue is that cruisers don't really have enough tac skills so running a torp effectively almost always means giving up an attack pattern.

Whats the nazi episode? I bet I could make one that is based off of it, but without nazis. Maybe Andorians.

There's actually at least three Nazi episodes. The Original Series episode, a two parter on Voyager with Hirogen running a WWII sim on the holodeck and an Enterprise two-parter. So you got plenty of canonical reasons to have aliens running around in SS uniforms.
