DancingShade posted:I wonder if the XMPP removal is being done for another reason. Perhaps they want to un-link STO and champions online so they can finally sunset the latter. There is some speculation that Neverwinter is the real cause since it has no LTS: https://www.reddit.com/r/sto/comments/ct9gof/xmpp_is_being_removed_from_all_cryptic_titles_and/ As far as sunsetting Champs, they actually just started adding new content again. Since Cryptic owns the IP and the game has lockboxes, it probably generates enough money to keep it running indefinitely if just a few whales play.

Upgrade weekend starts tomorrow but I bet you anything there will be a ship sale or something like that during it. They don't want the dilithium exchange to drop below 400 ever.

There's no reason to speculate on the reasons for them taking away xmpp, its because they are lazy shiftless talentless hacks, you redditor

I keep finding references to characters or quests that aren't in the game anymore. I get this can happen sometimes but the frequency is making this game look way more sloppy than it would need to. Meanwhile, I hit level 65 on my Fed char and that unlocks like a dozen quests?? Uh, great pacing there, game?

Probably terrified of Hong Kongers using xmpp to spread pro-democracy messages  E:^^ there used to be a whole mission about halfway through the game where the floor ceased to exist 4 years ago

I'm sad current players will never get to experience the wonders and joys of that fire cave mission which was mostly walkways over death lava. It had absolutely zero pathfinding baked in which meant your entire away team would commit suicide by falling into lava or simply get stuck on everything. You had to solo the whole map, which back then was a lot easier said than done. Got you a sweet not-a-stargate floor trophy though.

Neverwinter online does have a pretty big gold seller spam thing going on but i'd lean towards "end-of-life'ing a tech we have no idea how to operate anymore". occam's razor

I get this can happen sometimes but the frequency is making this game look way more sloppy than it would need to. The new method of forcing you to accept a dozen quests all at once isn't that much of an improvement. It's faster to get to the missions you want to run on alts, but you end up with a horribly messy quest log.

There is an option somewhere that stops the quest spam from everything that's available.

I tried neverwinter during the closed beta. It was incredibly boring and played like poo poo. Somehow worse than STO.

If we're getting reliable leaks again, the least you can do is put them in the Wiki so that pubbies can get mad about it again. Also, some interesting notes from the weekly stream: In a few days there'll be announcement regarding romulan ships and allowing non-roms to fly them. Cooperative is likely to be new faction, but not soon. Setting to reduce space visual effects clutter is possible. He wanted to announce it last week when power went out.

Some colony visuals, some invasion simulation junk, and the privilege of possibly buying the Lukari Space Boomerang for 5 FSMs & 20k fleet credits. Note that the sorta freebie FSMs you get from tier 6 reps work for this. https://sto.gamepedia.com/Lukari_Dranuur_Scout_Ship

They were mad that we had a few devs. It was nice knowing when to sell off all the old bugships two weeks before the T6 bugship was announced

It's been a long time since I thought of myself as a competent player. (maybe Delta Rising, all the players love it?) I'm almost afraid to see how badly I'll parse.

PWE is having a 15% buy Zen bonus + sales for stuff in all their titles until 9/3 apparently. STO got a 20% ship sale. Lovely timing as I have both the T6 freebie token and 3k zen laying around but I don't have any free ship slots but now I can buy slots AND ships . https://www.arcgames.com/en/games/star-trek-online/news/detail/11242933-2019-end-of-summer-bonus-currency-sale

Fired up the launcher, this is one of the adverts in rotation, clicking it gives a 404 on the Arc site: No idea if the word order is intentional or a case of Engrish  .
