Probably the best part of the game design. Not enough games let you have the freedom to mess with your character to that level.

You do realize you can go balls out insane and don't have to make do with the budget of the TV show when creating aliens which I believe was roughly the cost of a sandwich. Because that's what Darth Maul would've looked like on that budget. Actually scratch that, Darth Maul is what Darth Maul would've looked like on that budget. Which is pretty sad if you think about it. Still though, go nuts with your aliens. Be a Butts or whatever.

I was thinking about it but I just really like the idea of making a dude you'd actually see on TV

Comes back two days later to prove just how little he cares.

Edit: For those that can't see, he made sure to leave all his comments under his toon name "Sera Ivey," but he liked all the posts using his real "Treavor Calkum" account, meaning he must have been regularly checking that thread on two different facebook accounts.

Editx2: And this. Remember: He TOTALLY doesn't care at all, guys.

The borg in that mission weren't adapting to my phaser pistol. I think they just don't adapt to the player.

One of them adapted to my iconian rainbow rifle once.

I think it's just that they die so fast they don't get a chance.

It took me a while to figure out the ground mechanics and actually put together a good ground thing to make the iconian FEs not extremely frustrating and time consuming, and I think it's OP for normal content like Borg.

Anyway while the run from console to console part of the mission sucked, it was cool to fight and steamroller actual star trek stuff.

They were adapting to my weapons last night. Had to use the frequency modulator like I would in any Borg stuff.

No, the box that was left contained a klondike bar every time you opened it and cost nothing. Distinguishing it from a real lockbox.

One of the cryptic devs is friends with oats and invited them as his guests.

He flew to California and met up with butts, and the two of them went to the studio and gave the devs dental supplies such as floss, tooth brushes, and tooth paste, as well as the Klondike bars, and got to meet everyone and see everything.

Pretty sure shield is Rep 5 so you should build the warp core or singularity core if you have enough, as when upgraded it can get amp which is good. I believe you just want the entire Iconian set but I may be wrong about 3 or 4 piece.
