Looks interesting. Going to be fun watching a pubbie use dual cannons on a 6 degree per second turning carrier.

Are Klinks getting their carrier finally updated to T6 too, or is it yet another bad day to die?

It's the more useful pick, but yeah I'm really surprised they didn't go with command. Seems like a good candidate for getting the fleet version instead of the c-store one though. Console's not exciting, you aren't losing out on any skins, and the trait seems more a gimmick than anything.

I'm in love. It looks like this amazing mix of carrier command and sciholery, my two favourite play styles. Potently pubbies are bitching and moaning that it doesn't have an extra fire weapon or tax console, but it's not a dreadnought. I do wonder about a secondary deflector and sensor scan and hope they make it in, but either way I'll be happy.

I'm curious if it's better to mix the Callisto light escort frigate pets with the Peregrines, or just go straight Callistos. Also, sci or tac captain?

I guess the trait is interesting, but are there people that know what they're doing and are still willing to fly a ship without even an LTC tac slot?

You lose APO but gain GW3, Surgical Strikes and some potentially very interesting semi-frigate pets. Might even out? Running the universal lieutenant as a Tac (naturally) you get TT, 2x FAW and APB, which works fine on the Bastion.

Decent turn, so I've got it set up with DBBs and I just Grav Well 3 stuff right in front of me and pummel them into oblivion while my frigs zoom around doing their stuff. Kesper North posted:I'm curious if it's better to mix the Callisto light escort frigate pets with the Peregrines, or just go straight Callistos. The answer is basically always frigs, unless the frigs really suck. Smaller stuff dies fast, frigs hold in for longer enough that it actually makes a difference.

the sperg who was saying romulans not getting more ships was the same as the black lives matter struggle got banned from the forums right? it was that one that was insane and would translate stuff into romulan and tell people it was a 'logician' right? drat shame, i bet it would have had some juicy stuff to say about the SLAP IN THE FACE of the carrier.

Extremely banned, yes. Edit: Really good work with the Drug02 stuff, guys. I had written that file off as irrelevant months ago, but glad to know some of our eyes and ears have been hard at work putting all this together. The photo gallery is by far my favorite addition -- Does his mom dress him or something?

I might shake the EC out of the piggy bank to get the fleet modules for that carrier to gently caress around with on my old Vesta captain. Honestly I preferred the Omega to the other designs; I liked the huge launch bays on its flanks. I was also okay with it having four nacelles, just wish that two of them weren't weird little gimpy ones. Hopefully it'll come with other nacelle options, though I doubt it.

It's nothing like the catbus and holy poo poo you complain a lot about this game you don't play EDIT: On the topic of the suboptimal sci-whale, there's enough fun sci options now that can almost make up for the lack of meaningful attack patterns, so it isn't too much of a loss. Grav well is still pretty potent, and supposedly that resonance beam is pretty nasty as well. Besides, 4 Sci consoles combined with Radiant Det Matrix and Kemocite is more than enough damage for anything, nowadays. Psycho Landlord fucked around with this message at 09:04 on Nov 24, 2015 |

Huh, so they decided that this was going to be the new Jupiter before running the competition and then happily the one that won the contest happened to be the one that looked just like the original Jupiter's saucer.  I don't believe it was rigged, but only because I don't think Cryptic has the coding skill to rig a poll on their forums

And I still say Science boats (and science carriers) could probably stand to have 4/3 weapon slots across the board, but that's my personal pet peeve. They'd sure sell a lot more of the loving things if they did that anyway.

The bathtub has +1 turn http://sto.gamepedia.com/Fleet_Caitian_Atrox_Carrier so I guess it's amazing and we denizens of somethingisawful dot com should queue up to fellate the ship designers, because we are well known for our harmonious and positive atmosphere.

There was a post on the reddit.com sto page about inflation in STO. I posted my beneficial proposal to add a device that costs 1b ec and forces nearby players to turn and salute you when you activate it. About an hour later I got this reply  https://www.reddit.com/r/sto/comments/3u0ktd/thoughts_on_sto_inflation_can_we_fix_it/ His previous reddit.com posts include [–]SirFragula -4 points 20 hours ago Space Barbie isn't a selling point to me. I mean gently caress it, I'd pay Zen for the option to never see other player's customisations. They nearly all loving suck. Put your Feds in 2410 uniforms ffs. hakimashou fucked around with this message at 10:56 on Nov 24, 2015 |

The cat bus did sort of have its place since back when it came out it was the only fed carrier option. Not good but all you got. These days there's tons of alternatives. Honestly the look, the stats and the price tag place this way the gently caress down on my list of things to pick up when I get around to actually doing anything but idling while playing another game. Edit: drat it Druk, you're a loose cannon in a meta that heavily favors beams, get with the time.
