They rewrote the post after realizing that they were wrong... I think. I'm not sure what they're actually trying to say, beyond that they were wrong.https://coffeeborg.wordpress.com/2016/02/20/skill-revamp-grounders-overview/ posted:I’m not above saying ‘I am sorry, I overreacted/was mistaken’ and as such, that’s what I say & mean. I am sorry. Being a person of passion can turn me into overzealous idiot at times. I’ll go sound the fail-horn for myself.

The downside is that people tend to get bored with those who don't say anything at all.

You know, if they have the Battle of Procyon V in a mission it would explain why there are 24th Century Ships in the 26th century outside of the Enterprise production staff being lazy. The Na'kuhl have a stylized iron cross as their species icon. Someone at Cryptic took the Space Nazi thing a little literally. I'm aware the Iron Cross isn't just a nazi thing.

What's that Bort ? There's a bug in the new skill poo poo or something in the underpinnings that's loving with anything that uses Aux power level to determine how much dmg/heal/buff/whatever effect it does ? And the bug is a single misplaced zero ?  http://www.arcgames.com/en/forums/startrekonline/#/discussion/1212332/aux-scaling-bug-2-23 Bortyperson posted:I'm here to confirm that the current scaling effects of Auxiliary Power are very not correct in the current Tribble build. At least he was nice enough to own up to it. So many people screaming "ZOMG ALL SCI STUFF GOT NERFED JASDJAUJHSDJHAISDKASJKLGMNC!!!!!!"

Made a minor calculation error, was found on the test server, going to patch before release. I'm actually impressed, that's how things are meant to work.DancingShade posted:Hey now, compared to a lot of pubbie builds a single Grav Well 3 is seriously high DPS. Hmm, my Grav Well 3 has the trait that gives it kinetic damage, the secondary deflector that gives it rad damage, and the aftershock doff. It probably would outdamage some pubbies.

Remember how he flipped out about 12 hour doff missions, because clearly anything that isn't part of a linear sequence is a bug?

I was going to give him the benefit of the doubt and say that oh maybe the abilities are written in an interpreted language like Lua or Groovy or maybe even a roll your own solution with xml or some custom scripting but if he's admitting that it is (a) in code and (b) has lots of copy pasta than... well, I can't say I'm surprised I guess.

Cutedge posted:But it is now so make it a god drat constant. On the other hand, it's possible based on his statements that he's not actually fixing every single instance, but simply running a global search/replace without actually checking each change that gets made. Which would partially explain why every time they fix something, something else breaks. And sci users better hope that all the places that scale on aux actually use identical code so they get caught by his find/replace fix.

XEAN UPDATE: So I convinced a pubbie to join Xtern1ty, and, after talking to a few of the remaining members, actually got a fleet invite. Though Xean never logs on anymore, he still tries to control every aspect of his dying fleet, and apparently he threw a poo poo fit that someone was invited to Xtern1ty without his personal approval. He created a list of fleet members to kick for insubordination, and a high-ranking member got pissed, stole from the fleet bank, kicked a bunch of members, and left the fleet himself. The legend continues Edit: Apparently Xean only logs on to remind everyone he's still in charge, and he usually kicks a member just to prove his point.
