I absolutely love how pubbies can't just be happy and have all added additional requests and complaints to their posts. The devs should know by now that appeasement never works; they'll just find more things to whine about.

You're thinking of autistic dogs. Possibly autistic dog owners - I'm not sure.

The one guy who refused to be an Asian dog got banned for it I think.

http://sto-forum.perfectworld.com/showthread.php?t=1358651

He made a thread when his ban was over saying it was all a misunderstanding because he liked dogs and he liked Asian people, and he meant Asians grind and dogs follow their masters and blah blah that went on for more than 20 pages before the mods nuked it.

Google cache has parts of the thread, there is a quote from him (lystent) preserved on this page

Go beam arrays. AP DBBs + omnibeams works but you want to be running at full throttle for the pedal to the metal trait from the pilot spec and that's a pain in the dick with anything other than beam arrays. Stick with AP though and try to farm up some crtdx4 or crtdx3 pen arrays.

I'll try to get a full build up latter.

Ya, you are right. Cruiser broadsiding is the easiest thing to do in the game. I might build up a DBB boat for when I'm running CCE but I'll stick to my Beams for now. It's my delta alt so I don't have Pedal to the Metal yet but it still makes sense to just circle strafe.

Yeah, so much stuff in PVE is trivialized by just circling around enemies. A lot of the recent targeted debuffs are aimed at your position, so the sit-and-turreting that DHCs or even DBBs encourage is crippling, and the AI of more recent enemy groups is improved enough that they do actually attempt to surround you or get behind you.

Alaska Goon, am usually on later times (between 3pm and midnight pst), could someone pick me up, so I can get on the TheNextGooneration channel? I also have a 43 engineer character, but he's a bit outdated, and I don't use him much other than to do some dailys for dilitium.

I'm just glad to sell it, I bought 5 of them from a guy for like 68 each more than a month ago and figured I could flip them pretty easily, but at one point there were like 20 on the exchange and it looked like I'd be stuck with them or a loss, only have 1 more left to get rid of.

Starting to sell my last stack of sheshar promo packs now, I'm worried they will do another shehar event soon as part of their never ending c-store blitz.

They used to redo bug promos right around the time bugs disappeared from the ex, and she shares are few and far between anymore.

Aren't those Sheshars tier 5-U now though?

They won't sell well to the masses.

They should make a cross faction Caitian furry dreadnought ship that's only in special lockbox packs that cost $10 a pop. Half the chance as regular lockboxes too.

They would make soooo much money from retards.

Sheshars are the big Elachi dreadnoughts, they're T6. It's the Bulwarks (the Voth space dildoes) that are T5u. And still fairly pricy since Cryptic hasn't ever done a rerun or update of them like they have with the JHAS/JHSS.

The rumor amongst in-game traders is that there'll likely be some event in a couple of weeks. Feels like the JHSS was just yesterday, but with how they've been bombarding players with new ships, I wouldn't doubt an updated Bulwark is on its way.

I haven't played this game since it's release but a friend said it was worth Checking Out Again. I rolled an Engineer last night, am I hopeless and should just delete the character (and uninstall and buy a new computer)? OP makes it sound like they are forever terrible.

On one hand it's improved lightyears since release, on the other hand it peaked about six months ago and the new expansion is busy driving it into the ground.

They're crappy for minmaxing in space... but honestly, they're fun as poo poo on the ground, so I don't care.

Roll a tac but keep the engi. You get like 4 char slots to start with now and having a few spare characters at level 11+ is pretty much necessary to get dilithium/zen at a decent rate. Alternatively just play whatever the gently caress you want. You don't need to min/max to play this game and any class can hold it's own in the endgame with a decent build.

Don't listen to this bullshit, please reroll a tac while you still can and don't have huge sunk costs.

Let's be honest, there's no way Cryptic is going to release another 8-weapon ship with Sensor Analysis now that that's been buffed.

I am glad embassy consoles got re-buffed though, the tal'shiar battlecruiser remains a fun underrated gem.

Surprised it took them this long to take out a painless way of levelling to be honest. Grind out levels the Cryptic Approved way or gently caress off.
