So I've been a bit of a lurker around here, first time poster as of today. My main is in REDdit alert but I keep being told by a goon buddy of mine (who bought me the sub here) that I should ditch reddit and become one of you. So here I am. Teach me your ways, o goon overlords.

Asimo posted:I'm positive the sole decision making at PWE was basically... All those old ships are now useless, especially for the price. They were pretty much useless before too, but at least most of the T-4 ships were similar make to T5 ships so that even if they didn't have a decent console maybe you liked the skin. Now that all the T6 ships are unique in appearance (and you can buy each to unlock new appearances!) the only reason to spring for any of them is like, plans leech and maybe that one romulan console? There isn't even a valid reason to drop cash on the Legacy of Romulus pack anymore. Its pretty bad marketing.

It gets even worse when you realize the massive grinds makes leveling alts insane, and by extension, makes those big cross-faction packs way less appealing. Who would spend sixty extra bucks getting ships for klanks who do nothing but doff for contraband?

Asimo posted:DeltaRising.txt That's exactly where they lost me. I've never been one for buying the ships individually but played enough that the big giant ship packs made sense to me. I've hardly touched my alts since delta rising and have no desire to upgrade the tons and tons of gear between them, making the purchase of anything but fed ships a bigger waste of money than it was already.

All new goons fresh off of the boat are required to post an introduction thread in the "FYAD" subforum below "GBS". Content should be a thorough, well-read post, including a detailed history with previous forum groups, and game guilds. This is a basic requirement that we are all required to do and no one is excluded. I look forward to learning more about you!

I'm sure that there are some deeply thought out intricate builds, but my suggestion is to load it up with that A2B build and do about 10 Argalas to finish the mastery and get the ship trait. Then, delete that poo poo before it eats into your brain.

So I was bored and decided to do a Tovme. As in, do a terrible foundry mission and write a running commentary. Foundry mission: Homage to Galris Time: tl:dr This mission is like listening to an old person talk. Some ambassador gets assassinated, the culprit is obvious. Between all that, is seemingly the complete history of this fictional race of cactus people, their caste system (very bijoran), the typical go to backstory of their population recovering from the borg, etc, etc, tl:dr. I tried. I tried to read the dialogue, the massive blocks of text. Railrokh had a better time teabagging the corpse of the dead guy. It's like an old person telling a story about the good old days, then going off on a tangent about something completely irrelevant. It's so bad, even a member of xtern1ty gave it a bad review. Conclusion: Since the UESF has been removed, this may serve as a new method of torture. Alternatively, if you're having sleep problems, this may help send you to sleep.

The more baffling thing is how "exploration missions" are winning by a commanding lead. While no sane individual willingly played them before or is looking forward to whatever half-assed procedurally-generated crap Cryptic pisses out. The only thing I can think of (beyond the usual incompetence and autism of the playerbase) is the usual nerd problem of getting this dream of some feature (explore infinite exciting worlds!!) that has no relation to how said feature would ever work in reality. But even then there's the prefect counter example in recent memory...
