EDDS@EDDS and Buffy@EDDS

Done

Anyone else?

CaptainRAVE · 11 Feb 2010 at 22:10

Just ask in the fleet chat channel - there members at all kinds of levels (and many of us starting again with alts), so there should be people to team with most of the time

Unlocked Tier 3 crafting of Tactical Items. Giving me access to all these babies.

How much did you actually spend/use to access that. It just doesn't seem worth it when most of the gear is temporary while levelling - then from level 43 onwards from a few daily exploration missions you can get purple Mk X gear. Hell, even 5th order exploration badges give you better stuff than that. Hopefully they have a 4th or 5th tier at hand - and dont make it so difficult to unlock them. So can you now access all of the people in memory alpha?

I've created a forum for the fleet, since it will be better to have multiple threads on different things rather than one huge ass thread here you have to trawl through

www.gimpymoose.com/sto

Should be useful

. Bookmarked!

Anyone else need a sign up for the fleet or info added to the front post here?

Supposedly the number of light sources cause havoc on ATi cards.
Leave it at 2 as opposed to 5 (assuming you have turned it up).

Yes, has fixed it for many of us - annoyingly, perforamance for me is much better with 5 lights in space. So whenever I do an away mission I have to turn it down. Hasn't crashed since I found this fix.

I stopped playing after open beta, same crap over and over, boring.

And this coming from old Eve-Online player, who happens to be a huge Star Trek fan, but this game sucks and theres no way i'd pay monthly fees for this.

lol

lovin that everything is speaking more positively about this game. Was a little worried comming out of OB.

Yes, there is no doubt the game is still slightly buggy and a little messy - but it is a lot of fun and the recent content patch was quite re-assuring...I also like that the lag has gone, finally!

Just a reminder about the new fleet forums - http://www.gimpymoose.com/sto/

Everyone welcome to join our OcUK STO fleet

Add it to the Opening Post mate, might help direct people to it and spam it in Fleet channel a bit. I'm going to a add a bit of content tonight.

I've made you a moderator as well.

Done and thank-you - have also added it as the MOTD in fleet. Should add visibility to it

Can we have a general chat section in there?

CaptainRAVE · 12 Feb 2010 at 23:32

First post has had a tidy up

Working toward my new cruiser with my alt now.

Yes, the shipyard just behind where to customize your ship (up the ramp).

Will add you when I get back in. Server seems to have bummed out.

hlw86 said:
Appreciate that, thanks

Done

Edit: We now have a new bank tab and have split them up depending on level.

server down?

Seems to be...just got kicked. Oh well, shower time

Thanks for everyone's help with getting more bank space. FYI, we need about another 500K for the next tab.

I have also posted it as the fleet MOTD. Also, we have 3 bank tabs now (bought another new one earlier) - we have different levelled gear split between them. Much easier to find stuff in there now! Only another 500K needed for the next one.

Thanks Furbs and CR. Bank tabs don't really interest me too much, when i switched to Fed from KDF a few of you were farming Crystalline for blues and selling them for extortionate prices and i saw some getting sold to each other in the fleet which is something i would never do. Look up the guild Genesis on games like Archlord or AoC (US) tied with the name Kabaal and you'll see i'm not a fan of selling to each other. Quest and PvP gear did me fine for getting admiral again.

Everything in the bank is free. We just have a sort of common sense policy - take something you need/want, but when you can, replace it with something that you think someone else might need/want.

The blues were useful for getting early credits of what can only be idiots on the exchange (must be the same people paying 100ks for endgame gear), but I have put all of that money earned and a lot more back into the fleet to give us all more bank space (which imo makes it worthwhile).

Just to clarify, this isn't about selling to each other

- I too wouldnt like that. Only did it once with a turret early in the game, but it was for a token amount because the other member insisted on paying e.g. 20K whereas I could have gotten another few hundred Ks on the exchange.

Dont want anyone to get the wrong idea
