Yeah I leveled a Romulan without any issues during the delta rerun, so it's definitely a new bug from jury rigging the Dominion faction into the game.

Is the google translation being weird or does it really have 3 fore weapons and 5 on the rear end-end? That would certainly be a unique feature.

Kazoo Reverb posted:I feel like Phased Polaron ship weapons are going to go up up up. They look cool, they are thematically appropriate for JH chars, they have the far superior phaser proc, and no one will be opening Dominion lock boxes anymore. They drop from the infinity boxes, and the phaser proc doesn't replace the shittier polaron proc it replaces a mod and like all proc's it's still shittier than the [pen] you're giving up by not using crafted gear. They do look cool though so the demand may spike from virtually none to mild. If you want cool polarons and have upgrades to burn (and hate yourself enough to get a full set), the Boldly They Rode beams are pretty great now that you can re-eng them for [dmg]x4.

STD can't really include the Romulans either without loving up the timeline since it's set like 10 years before the TOS epsiode where they actually see Romulans for the first time.

Yes but they explicitly state that it was fought purely ship to ship and without visual communication and they'd been no contact since the end of the war. There's a whole subplot when they finally get a visual of the bridge and everyone is shocked that they look like Vulcans.

Iymarra posted:What's the actual performance difference between T5-U and T6? About one console, one extra lt level boff power, and a smidge of extra hull/shields The actual power level difference between tier 5 and tier 6 ships come from the ship traits. Each t6 ship comes with a ship trait that is unlocked by earning xp from space combat while piloting that ship. Once the trait is unlocked you can use it with any ship you fly with up to 4 slotted (you can also buy a fifth slot with dil/fleet credits). So you're looking at a pile of zen/EC to get the 4-5 traits you want for a build to really get the benefits of tier 6 ships the game remains piss easy though so you don't need any of that poo poo.

The t6 Scim works good with aux2bat as well. It's got a command tac boff seat and a lt universal you can use for extra sci powers or more tac powers if you've got kemo/distributed targeting.

It was expensive because pubbies hate money and kept popping boxes with feds. They switched it to a choice box instead of locking the faction on opening when they added it to the infinity boxes though so it's currently going for regular lockbox prices (about 290 mil) It's good, flew it for like a year on my romulan before I got bored of it.

Coq au Nandos posted:Jem'Hadar Carrier. Intel specialisation, science seating, two hangers, wingmen and a deployable buddy for 7 combat pets active at once. The downsides are it doesn't have a secondary deflector or sensor analysis, it's light on engineering seating so you need to get creative for cooldown reduction and the turn rate is low because it's massive. It's boff seating is just straight up loving terrible. The pets are nice though.

You also only get 3 tac powers unless you go tac with the one lt. universal they give you; which would leave you with a single eng power which is a total non-starter. So if you want full uptime on your attack patterns you either need to lose tac team and settle for faw 1 or just ditch faw altogether and settle for surgicial strikes. It's just classic "way too much loving sci" in a way they haven't really done much in years (for good reason).

Yeah it's the best story content they've ever released and the best use of VO talent. The dominion faction poo poo is an afterthought at best though and they had wrapped the storyline up way too fast.

The main take away is that rather than being an actual randomly chosen queue it's gonna fill whatever queues are in need of players. This means you can troll it by just starting the shittiest/easiest to sabotage queues over and over. We can make IGA great again guys.

Rhjamiz posted:I wish I had casual access to recording software or recorded myself regularly because I just did one of the Cardassian arc mission where both versions of Weyoun-10's voice actor's lines played simultaneously. It was like talking to a lovely video game ghost, with what I assume was Combs' lines playing quietly in the background while the original Weyoun's dominated the foreground. The original voiceover wasn't even supposed to be weyoun. It was original character they replaced with Weyoun once they got Jeffery Comb's to sign on. They've replaced a bunch of original characters in the older episodes over the years. Geordie and Nog show up a bunch in the fed arc now for example.
