Dootman posted:I guess what this boils down to is that I cannot defend this game any longer in any way. I still gently caress around with it more out of inertia, but Delta Rising basically killed this game as badly as Voyager killed the franchise. Every decision Cryptic's made in the past seven or eight months has been horrible, incompetent, or player hostile, and there's no sign of it changing anytime soon.

There will be no need for your alts to play the event mission, no hoops to fly through other than picking up the ship from a store. Hopefully taking this extra step will address any lingering concerns you have with the overall change. Thanks for reading this far, and I look forward to seeing you on Risa soon! Huh.

I love how he effectively blamed anyone who pre-farmed pearls one year for next years ship for causing event participation metrics to go down:STO dev posted:We initially assumed people were using the Lobi bypass option to speed their way through the events, but after digging deeper into the numbers that wasn’t the case either lol @ "We assumed people were spending something like actual money on these things".

Edit: ^ Even more laffo, why would they automatically think that people were spending money on that poo poo? Yet more evidence that they have no idea what goes on in the thing that they have dedicated their professional lives to.tacofangs posted:We will be making every event ship you’ve ever earned and every event ship moving forward total account unlocks.

The Romulan Pilot ship was lifted streight from Concept art for the Scimitar Edit: Oh it says that right in the blog. Still it wasn't an original design.

Lagomorphic posted:Yeah it also that any new players they actually managed to pick up are now screwed in terms of actually getting the older ships forever. True. It does have the advantage of giving new characters access to older ships though. I've missed a lot of these events but my main'll get instant access to both Risian ships and the freebie Obelisk carrier. New characters like my Deltalt in turn get access to ships like the Samsar.

I like some of their modifications of existing designs. Like the Sao Paulo variant for the Defiant, or the Armitage Though I am also quite fond of the Avenger. I think their Romulan designs have been top notch so far. But their Klingon and Fed ships could be better. MikeJF posted:I'm much happier with them lifting unused screen designs than with them creating their own. Parts of the Regent class were taken from Sovereign Class Concept art done for First Contact. Hell I wonder how many of their ships were taken from John Eaves sketches for the shows/movies. He was also conceptual artist on Star Trek Online back when Perpetual was working on it.

Both of the D'Deridex updates have been abominations. The early romulan stuff, the Ha'poo poo, was terrible but they've gotten a lot better since they figured out that the ships need a proper beak.

Based on the tone of that "rargh look what other people are doing!11" email, I would suspect that he broke the only rule that NoP PS has: don't sell poo poo.

Yeah, snagged the tachyokinetic for the deltalt. I was originally saving up the lobi I'd gotten during the lobi events for that T6 battlecruiser, then they were all, 'Hey guess what the T6 ships cost way more lol', and I wasn't gonna hand over money for lockboxes just to get that ship for one character.

I don't know what it is with STO (or the Star Trek franchise) that attracts ERPists who do that poo poo so blatantly. Like, I played Tera Online and that game has an entire player race which is literally just lolicon pedobait and I never once came across that kind of poo poo in game.
