Star Trek Online

The current batch of episodes are doable by anyone of Lieutenant Grade 6 or higher. The Defra episodes are doable by Lieutenant Grade 10 (Lieutenant Commander 1).

The end of series reward for Defra was a Very Rare Breen Tactical Officer, which you can no longer get (although it may appear in the C-Store later).

So far there has only been 2 episodes in the current Devidian episodes, with the next episode appearing on Saturday.

The next question is, what will the final reward be for the Devidian episodes? So far we have had a ship device with brief defensive resistance and a ghostbusters style ground weapon. Apparently there is a time travelling mission coming up? I really hope we get some good action soon since not much has happened so far. Do the devidians have ships? Will certainly be logging on this weekend (and hopefully sooner).
 
At first I didnt like the Defiant - but it was because I couldnt get the right layout with my BOs (I basically hadn't assinged them corrently). I now have my awesome rapidfire/everything facing forward build - works like a charm and I have started playing my main again :D. Just wish Cryptic hadn't stolen all of my purple MkX items :(
 
Well maybe something to do that the ship was doing more damage then sovereign class LOL.

I still have not refit my VA Fed player, not sure I like anything on offer. Tactically everything is pants at VA level as most ships don't have dual Tactical officer slots.

The Refit Defiant does :D

I still have to respec my BO's a bit as I have Cannons:Rapid Fire 1, 2 and 3 on the same BO.

Loving the refit defiant. 3 Tactical slots, 1 science, 1 engineer :) -

Front -
2x Quantums
2x Dual Heavy Cannons

Rear -
3x Turret

1 science BO with 2 lots of science team (supported by consoles and deflector dish)
1 engineer with Emergency shields and weapon damage into shields
3 tactical officers with lots of high yield torpedos, cannon rapid fire etc

Have also respec'd to fit these abilites. Have now increased the difficulty to advanced and still finding it very easy, so seems good so far.

Wondering if we should combine some of the level VI/VII bank tabs to make more room for MkX and MkXI endgame gear? Shame we can't buy more :(

Having a fantastic starbase 24 battle then BLAM "maintenance server clsoed" and kicked my bottom out now warning at all. Pretty annoying way to do things! and thats me putting it mildly
 
Annoying when that happens - although at least there was warning of it on the launcher. I remember it happening in Champions Online after a long mission - just a minute after the "10 minute" warning the server went down. Cryptic said it was a "server crash", but it was hard to believe. Hopefully this is for the new episode tomorrow.


Edit:

General

* Deep space encounters with the Hirogen in the Psi Velorum sector block were leading to encounters with the Terran Empire instead. This should now be fixed. (The Terran Empire is no longer sending disguised ambushes into Romulan space.)
* Groups of Undine no longer tend to stand in a straight line.
* The Synchronic Proton Distortion Rifle now has a more appropriate icon.
* Fixed a bug that caused mouselook to get stuck on forever when leaving/entering the gameplay state with both mouse buttons held.
* The sprint animation has been updated.


Ships

* Blinking navigation lights have been added to Sovereign class ships.
* Blinking navigation lights have been added to the Nebula.
* The floating node issues have been fixed on the vorcha C-store variant.
* Typos have been fixed in customization for the Vor’cha.
* The size of the Vor’cha’s shields has been fixed.


Missions

* By Any Means: The mission tracker now properly directs you to Station Alpha instead of Beta.
* The USS Nobel is now the correct Olympic-class ship in the Cirini Prime system.
* Devidian Weekly Episode 2: Spin the Wheel
o Belan is no longer quite as ornery before asking the player to fix replicators.
* The surface of Hotep IV is now a little more refined. Of note, there is no longer a pit to get stuck in.
* Textures on certain buildings on the surface of Defera now show textures at all distances.


UI

* The icon for Photonic Officer is now properly red if you’re part of the Klingon Empire.
* The icons for the various Marks have been adjusted. They now contrast more with their backgrounds.
* The chat window no longer minimizes when resizing it using the upper right corner.
* Master Loot UI works properly once again.

I stopped playing this time around bos I kept crashing on ground missions. I could forgive the fact that most missions were move from group to group of bad guys and kill them all in turn, but not when I had to do it over and over because of crashes :(

Turn Dynamic lighting off. Fixed all of my ground combat crashes (and has for lots of others).
 
Is everyone looking forward to the extra special scary mission at the weekend? I think its also part 3 of the current mission arc.
 
I've been watching DS9 lately, and have thought about resubbing. Plus from what I've been reading, it seems things have improved somewhat.
 
STO any good?

I ain't played it at all. I wanted to buy it at release but coupled with the high price at the time, I didn't like the reviews it was getting.

It is a lot better than it was at release. Email me in trust if you want a demo key (although the demo is VERY short) - but if you do decide to buy at least you have it all downloaded ready. I think the game can be picked up for around £15 now - not bad for a months "free" play and not a huge amount lost if you don't like it. Plus, season 3 is on the way soon (can't find details of it atm - will post when I do).
