Yea, we've done that before. Generally the problem we face is time zones making it so we don't have 5 people online at the same time all the time.

 

[Norfleet]

If we can get to 5 people online at once, we should go back to training for No Win, and then doing Defera runs if we get banned.

 

[Vaarna_Aarne]

I'd suggest you write up a post about what people need to know beforehand so they don't have to do preparations when we happen to have five people online.

Well in relation with carrier commands apparently screaming at them and it actually living longer that 1 day in Tribble before going to Holodeck seems to work.

The -4% was dropped so they just get better, they also upped the healing they get at rank up (so we dont end up rank 3 nearly dead ships) and they are addressing the cooldown timers, here are the ones on the latest build:

• Peregrine Fighter: Cannon Rapid Fire cooldowns reduced from 70sec to 30sec (Elite only) -
• Shield Repair Drones: Repair Beam cooldowns reduced from 10sec to 5sec
• Jem'Hadar Attack Ships: Beam Overload cooldowns reduced from 50sec to 30sec
• Jem'Hadar Fighters: Directed Energy Modulation cooldowns reduced from 130sec to 90sec
• Fer'Jai Frigates: Torpedo High Yield cooldowns reduced from 50sec to 30sec
• To'Duj Fighters: Cannon Rapid Fire cooldowns reduced from 70sec to 30sec (Elite only)
• Bird of Prey Raiders: Torpedo High Yield cooldowns reduced from 50sec to 30sec
• Romulan Drone Ships: Beam Overload and Fire At Will cooldowns reduced from 50sec to 30sec
• Scorpion Fighters: Torpedo High Yield cooldowns reduced from 70sec to 30sec (Elite only)

The new devblog details the Romulan veteran ship. It's basically the Pehqu with Singularity features and Romulan flavour cloak.

The Romulan Vet Ship is not as impressive an addition to the Romulan lineup as it was to the Fed and KDF Lineups. In addition to its ongoing lack of a Fleet version, it does not offer a unique layout like it does to Fed and KDF. Instead, it's just a lightweight paper Scimitar that handles better, but has less PEWPEW. And less console. It's no better or worse than the Fed and KDF versions, but it's nothing Romulans haven't seen before.

i thought i found an acceptable form of earning ec in contraband farming, then nerd of prey told me elite slavers are an extremely long term investiment, so i went back to doffing and, surprise surprise, i'm not getting decent marauding missions anymore on any of my 4 kdf toons, almost only the 20h which give crafting materials.
this game hates me.

also i've been waiting 2 weeks now for an answer to my ticket.
some serious customer care.

You're just not looking hard enough. You need to be systematic and hunt with doffships. If you just fly around like a buffoon, of course you won't find anything. You're like the guy fishing with a line on a stick, while I'm laughing at you as I toss in a hand grenade.

 

[eklektyk]

my low lvl klink gets all the marauding missions he can [from 30 min insp thru those 4/6hrs and longer too - i got many slots so i take them all anyways]
its easy to get them trollin for sup col missions anyways

useful as an ass without its hole. congratulations.

 

[Drakron]

You do know assignments are sector space AND/OR inside your ship, flying around in sector space without going inside and checking means you lose a lot of assignments that are in fact available but since you are in sector space you dont see them.

Ahem, past his abrasive sense of humour, Norfleet is also de facto organizer and resource acquirer of our Fleet, and pretty much the key reason why we're about to hit T5 starbases. If you want something, he knows how you can get it, AND how you can get it better.

 

[MadMaxHellfire]

yet, right here, right now, he's been as useful as an ass without its hole.

The key to searching successfully is not merely to search with your alts as you fly by: This is the naive method of searching. To SUCCESSFULLY find the missions you want, you don't do any flying at all. Instead, create about a half a dozen new accounts, plant toons in the sector you want to search regularly (Pirate Alley = EE), and then just invite yourself to those bridges and check the consoles. Buy them shuttles. The shuttle console is just right there on arrival.

Amount of flying involved: Zero. This means you can remain firmly planted in the base of your choice while rotating all of your toons through to pick up the missions.

 

[Vaarna_Aarne]

Just no grudges please, that's pretty much the only rule we've got in the Fleets.

 

[Drakron]

My grudges are for the shitty devs that cannot even make a new uniform without fucking up another.

That and managing to fuck up the shard sword.

 

[MadMaxHellfire]

create about a half a dozen new accounts

half a dozen new account! HALF A DOZEN NEW ACCOUNTS!!! how silly of me! i've been so stupid, so naive, thinking i could just have some fun instead of getting a new unpaid job!

 

[Norfleet]

IKR? You actually thought this game was about fun! This is a PWE game. There's no FUN.

if anyone is interestad ...pretty shit items but whatever

 

[Norfleet]

I ran some new numbers: Change of plans: New calculation indicates that Provision 3, due to the discount from Dev 3, actually has a slightly lower Provision to Vespene Ratio. We will therefore launch Dev3 early, in ~2 days. ONWARD!

Also, you slackers need to show up more so we can get a No Win team going. WE REQUIRE MORE VESPENE GAS!

 

[eklektyk]

recently im just doin doff missions and thats all ... plus i dont think my flying pinata is adjusted to run those without a lot of fuckups

 

[Vaarna_Aarne]

Well, that's merely a question of outfitting the pinata, and that's actually the easiest thing to do.

 

[eklektyk]

so any plans on farming lock boxes before they disapear???

 

[Vaarna_Aarne]

Well, it's not like we don't have hundreds of them stored up already...
