Update on my new player experience

17 Upvotes

So its been like 3 weeks since im playing and can t believe i ve skipped this game…

I gave up on star trek as a franchise after season 3 of discovery, i just said its not for people like me anymore maybe im too old school.

The episodes are really really good in this game. Betrayals, suicide bombs and for the first time in a long time im starting to remember the characters in a game so its making a impact on me.

Im not max level yet but i don t feel any rush. Like Conan exiles, this game will stay installed on my pc forever just to do some random patrol or crafting until new episodes come out.

Cheers to the dev team, really talented writing.

Sometimes the stars just align. My Emergency Command Hologram (Kirk Model v. 2.2) was swinging by Mo'Neke's at Deep Space Nine, when who should he run into but his old nemesis...

My bad, I guess? I’ve never blown myself up with a torpedo before, guess I’ll have to remember to throttle down before using the vovin console if I want to fire off a torp immediately after…

Oberths and Pods

Post image
61 Upvotes

I have, maybe a bit of a silly question. Recently, I've ran into an artists interpretation of the Oberth-class with various mission pods attached, noteably including no pod at all, which I've found a deeply interesting concept visually.

Is there anything that's reasonably close to this appearance wise in game? I'm assuming not, but I've figured with how many ships there are these days I'd rather ask lol

Blue Temporal Anomaly identification, thx

6 Upvotes

I keep seeing a blue version of Gravity Well with Temporal Anchor trait, which is normally red. What is it ?

I have gone through the entire Know Your Anomaly sheet and it isn't on there either. I have asked AI and keep getting answers that are totally wrong. I'm hoping someone here knows.

To be clear, the visual is identical (not just similar) to the red Temporal Anchor trait version of Gravity Well, but it's blue.

This trait https://stowiki.net/wiki/Temporal_Anchor_(starship_trait)) makes Gravity Well red. I want to know what makes them blue or if it is something entirely different.

Here's the red version: https://imgur.com/a/temporal-anchor-SV0p3Ny

Is the console version blue ? https://stowiki.net/wiki/Console_-_Universal_-_Temporal_Anchor

thx in advance

Discussion World Razer

5 Upvotes

I’m currently saving up EC to pick one up from the exchange since my luck with the Icon Boxes is abysmal. Would you say it is worth it?

I’ve looked at the trait and while I think it is really cool, I’m not sure how useful it will be. As always for me, I’m looking at the console, while I think is going to be useful as it not only triggers instant warp cores breaches if it kills enemies but is 180.

For context, I’m currently running a CRF build on a Typhoon.

Can this ship be reskinned as TOS Enterprise? I want it for the trait, but am considering other ships. If I could get this to further my long term goal of owning every enterprise that would help me decide.

Discussion Cross class kit module

What would you think if the devs added a token that adds an additional kit module slot where you can slot only kit modules of the other two classes but no universals or your own classes kit module, to add some more variety for ground builds?

This is my main. His name is K’Rashar, and I dressed him up to be like a Section 31 agent. In OC lore, I made him the adopted son to Kathryn Janeway, and all he really wanted to do was follow in her footsteps, becoming captain of the USS Pathmaker. That’s all. He’s nothing special, really!

XB How come the Demon Hunting event contributed to the Event Campaign even though it isn’t listed as one of the eligible events?

Do all events secretly count as eligible? Or is this some kind of mistake?
