Star Trek Online

Well I've removed a lot of chaff from the fleet banks.. I mean really white phasers and photon torpedoe launchers are available at most NPC merchant's for not a lot, same goes for Disruptor's for the KDF side.

I kept the non-whites and most of the whites that aren't so common, and moved items around so they are in the right banks now. I'll try and put some more non-whites into the bank but I gotta earn them first and I just failed the Borg incursion I was in...

And to top it all the darn Dev's took away my duo TOS Connie phasers that I was running on my Excelsior.. so now I'm firing on 1/2 my cylinders.. and they said they'd fixed it to, unless I read the update notes wrong.
 
I also recommend with Free to play on the horizion that we allow people to credit the bank with items from other players accounts if they have multiple accounts/char
 
I know but a lot are on about creating new chars but might have the credits/kit in other "gold accounts" to fill up what they took with new silver accounts
 
I get really fedup when foundry authors cant put a decent mission together. You get to the top level of the game and the only thing to do is foundry missions and then after hours of game play, the mission doesn't add up or finishes suddenly or a button doesn't work.

I wish cryptic put some QA control on them!
 
I've actually been enjoying the Borg Alerts.. They are a useful source of skill points. I went from Capt 1 to Capt 4 last night. Although beating the Sirius one is kinda hard as most people there are only Lt Cmdr, which doesn't make it easy.
 
Randomly spawning Borg DSE's with timers (don't destroy 4 groups of borg in time and the boss borg doesn't show up)

Provides a bit of amusement but can be seen as a joke with a content shortage the likes of STO's current state.
 
But the nice thing with Borg, Red Alerts, is they they award x5 normal skill points, and you get a 15 minute +20% boost as well. So if you are levelling a toon to VA, the Borg events are a good way to do it. Added to which there's about 40 accolades to go with them.

The foes don't drop any loot, but if you complete the mission, you get the choice of a level appropiate item or badge.
 
Who knows.. but the announcement from DS, 'seems' a little to neat for me. We have some interesting times coming for STO. F2P is being ramped, a lot of backend changes and upcoming game changes are going to make it better.

On the flipside Perfect Worlds have just taken over and although the buyout has apparently been 'amicable', I can well imagine that they would want some changes that maybe DS didn't like.

I can't help but think either DS has bad timing, or ... Then again I may just be paranoid.
 
Even tho im not a fan of some of his decisions Dan did a great job well except for most of this year but that probably couldn't be helped with the content drought. Be sad to see him go. Hope the next guy is as good or better but i somehow doubt it.

DStahl, has announced he's stepping away from STO and Cryptic.

Annoucement post on STO Forum

Now the question becomes, did he jump or was he pushed?

Sad to see him go and hope he goes onto better things. I had a number of chats with him after he took control of STO. It really was a mess when he took over and he pushed it in the right direction. At the end of the day, he was incredibly limited with what was available to him, and whatever he did one half of the community would give him grief over it. Not a job I would have wanted tbh.
