It's great because the frequency that we were flashing colors is the same exact rate as in-game effects, meaning that anyone with true epileptic seizures with frequency triggers isn't actually playing STO because the game itself would trigger seizures. But this fact won't stop pubbies from crying about it.

DonDoodles posted:GUARANTEED to give people seizures. Jog my memory quick: what's our confirmed seizure total for all of our flashing images? You'd think it'd be in the hundreds or thousands by now the way some people bitch about it. From the posts on the forum I'd expect the posters to get a epileptic fit from seeing the rainbow flag in the wind. Maybe we should just cut down on the colors.

Yeah, must be colors. Same reason why forum pubbies get so mad when the Stonewall fleet advertises their annual pride event. That never fails to rile them up.

Got one too. Wonder if it's just random or if they noticed I basically haven't played in a month+. Also they're doing a giveaway thing again for Season 12. It's the formal wear costume today.

I got the same "Free T6 Intel Sovvy!" email, and I also haven't logged in pretty much since the I got the Winter Event ship. Sadly, I already bought the T6 Intel Sovvy during the last big sale (with dil->zen, natch). In my defense, it's one of the best-looking ships in the game.

Extra stuff: the NX refit with the secondary hull will be a lobi ship, so the price should be good. And the Pulse Phasers have a chance to reduce the target's damage resistance while increasing your own. Very nice.

If you signed up to get a code, make sure to thank PWE and Cryptic for the hookup: http://forum.arcgames.com/startrekonline/discussion/1227395/special-thanks-to-pwe-for-the-soverign-codes-from-starfleet-dental#latest

If someone has a code for a ship or whatever, that they already have, mind if i grab it, unless you can sell it, then sell it I guess, I'm just gettin' back into trekkin' or maybe i got it too? who knows...? i'll go check.

Got that email too. Is it one of those different ship for each faction or straight up Fed ship?

I spent many spacebux to upgrade from a blue inhibiting secondary deflector to a purple one, then noticed I suddenly have 40 less control. Turns out blue ones randomly give you an extra unlisted 40 for no reason I can surmise and purple ones don't. Goddamnit STO.

Think it's just "hey here's an enterprise and if you don't play fed then lol" situation. Fortunately that means most of the playerbase is happy since that's exactly what most play. Hmm, the trait on it isn't terrible. I guess.

Anita Dickinme posted:Got that email too. Is it one of those different ship for each faction or straight up Fed ship? I think they should start giving away KDF ships as an incentive to play the other factions. Actually, they should just outright give fed ships to kdf players, as a captured bounty. Preferably the ship should come with a auto-generate name that it grabs from a random role-player's bio. staberind posted:If someone has a code for a ship or whatever, that they already have, mind if i grab it, unless you can sell it, then sell it I guess, I'm just gettin' back into trekkin' I've sent you an invite to TNG, instructions are in the OP.

If I was trying to increase KDF or Rom populations I'd maybe give out some free T5 (non account bound) ships for reaching max level for such characters over a month long event or something. You'd still make money from people buying upgrade tokens if nothing else. Then again maybe gamble boxes make so much cash none of this matters

DancingShade posted:Hmm, the trait on it isn't terrible. I guess. The problem with the trait is that it's competing with other much better traits, and the only eng powers who's cooldown matters are EPtX and A2D with both have cooldown/duration doffs already. Might be nice for a newer player but that's already kind of a shitshow anyway. That said, the ship itself is pretty alright and it kitbashes better than other Cryptic offerings. Thankfully the version they're giving out is the Intel variant.

It seems they're definitely going to attempt a PvP revamp but it's going to fail miserably, of course. Specs and poo poo are too broken for anything other than randomly exploding out of nowhere.

We've been hearing talk of a PVP revamp since uh.... season 5? Earlier? gently caress I don't even remember. It won't happen because the sensitive crybabies who just want to gently caress their bleached orion bikini girls or have mary sue Kirk adventures can't stand the idea of getting "griefed" by dying to another player so PVP bad. Because dying in a PVP zone is exactly the same as getting griefed according to the many pubbies who we used to gank in Kerrat and not-Kerrat.
