You should really emphasise at some point that there's no necessary link between player class and ship class, because even amongst new goons lots of them seem confused by the fact that just because they have a science toon doesn't mean they should try to go figure out a science ship, and that if they like cruisers that's just as valid as the escort on the tac they did because we told them to.

Kind of hard to aux2bat, when the other two techs are hanging out idle. I actually logged in to my ship being fitted out to a few weeks ago, too. Maybe it reverted me to my saved fit, though?

Which renderer are you guys using? I assume pressing minimum graphics won't change the renderer type, and that might be relevant.

Regrettable posted:There are some bots but that's all I know of. Is SweetFX an ENB? Not quite as involved and deep into the engine as ENB; it works as a post-processor after a game has rendered, doing fullscreen operations like colour curve adjustments, vignetting, antialiasing or other filters, including some alright HDR fakery. It's similar in concept but more generic in implementation.

Huh, so you can see the big Sensor Analysis target put down by other people? This makes it... significantly more useful in pubbie PvE groups in places like the battlezone, if only because it gets everyone (okay, a few more than used to, at least) focusing their fire on the same ship. It's actually really handy.Lorak posted:Like this. Okay yeah Borg+Breen is loving awesome looking. If they ever let you shift shield graphics you know what you gotta do.

Step 1 to enjoying STO: binding the throttle on your ship to either the mousewheel or the browser forward/back keys. (Hey, I prefer the latter, but to each their own)

Looks best on Rommies, and pretty much looks like it's the proper skin on the Tal Shiar ships. I'd like to see it on a Klingon battlecruiser at some point, I reckon that'd work pretty well. Also probably work pretty drat good on a B'rel.

Yeah, basic Tier 5 is 9-console, and from there you upgrade to 10-console ships in the form of Fleet/Lockbox/Lobi/C-store ships. Or possibly summer/winter event ships, which are free once a year.

You're flying a Ha'feh so I assume you're good with an escort too? If you want an escort, you want a fleet Ar'kif. For a cruiser, yeah, either a D'Deridex or a Scimitar.

All you'll have to do is some bullshit one person race once every 20 hours, 25 times and the ship is yours. And FYI the corvette is ridiculously fun just zipping around everywhere, no matter if you play it as a beamboat or cannonboat.

It's pretty useless in PvP, but honestly in PvE it's kinda nice, since you have big bosses that don't move that much and the singularity powers aren't that awesome in PvE and also given it halves your singularity charge time it's not taking much away from the normal singularity powers anyway. Also it makes bits of your ship open up and glow with sparkles, and gives you an excuse to equip a quad cannon which looks pretty cool shooting stuff. Pew Pew Pew Pew.

Unless things have changed from S8 (and I do recall some talk of nerfing the gun...), the recipe for ground gear is basically EVERYONE GETS A DYSON GROUND SET! YOU GET A DYSON GROUND SET, YOU GET A DYSON GROUND SET, EVERYONE GETS A DYSON GROUND SET! It helps that the Dyson battlezone shits marks. Of course, the Dyson battlezone is ground in and of itself so you may want some advice for whilst you're earning those marks... MikeJF fucked around with this message at 14:14 on May 12, 2014 |
