One thing that does disappoint me about the consoles of the T1-4 and even some T5 ships is that while they have really cool consoles (Picard Manoeuvre from the Constellation, Anti-Matter Spread from the Venture, etc), ultimately since they don’t have passive traits it makes them impractical to run on anything higher.

Example, let’s take the Warp Burst Capacitor from the Constellation:

Picard Maneuver
Create Warp Mirage Decoy
Become Untargetable for 5 sec
+15% Damage Bonus for 5 sec
Creates a duplicate at current location for 5 sec
Teleport 6.0km straight forward
1 min recharge

This is currently how it works. I like the ability but I think we can add a passive to it.

Here’s my addition:
Passive:
+5 Maximum Weapon Subsystem Power
+5 Maximum Engine Subsystem Power
-10% Weapon Firing Mode Ability Cooldown (applies to all firing modes, FAW, CSV, THY, Torp Spread, etc)

If you guys have any other ideas for how to expand on the T1-5 Consoles please post comments. Also I know this isn’t likely to happen but it would be nice to be able to use some of the flashier moves from the shows/movies without basically sacrificing a console slot.

Just the question in the title

Greetings,

I'm a new player looking for general advice from the legends around the community. I'm trying to outfit a Farragut Temporal Cruiser to be the best beam shooter it can be. My character is a TOS era character now in the current time and I understand I should be able to get TOS era equipment from Starbase K-13. How do I gain access to this base?

I also collected some other ships from the 60th Anniversary Prize Pack tokens based on other recommended equipment I have seen for phasers. I got the D.O.M.I.N.O. and the Dynamic Power Redistributor. I read I should look at the NX Refit console as well, does anyone have any thoughts on what I should be working towards to reach the goal of outfitting the ship with an epic quality TOS era phaser build that can tackle elite content.

I can't decide what to use my t-6 ship token on. There are so many cool ships! Im really torn between getting a new fun t6 Science vessel (like the Lexington), the Rhode Island/Equinox t-6 (cause the Quasar and Nova class is one of my all time favorite ships frames and Id like to have an actually flyable one), or the Dauntless class. Im rp'ing a science officer and trying to get back in. Right now I have a Vesta Class variant as my primary, and I want to save up energy credits for a Protostar if I can manage it, but im not likely to manage that before they're off the market. Any thoughts?

Vulcan Suurok, NX material, Black Vesta/Corvus pattern, Pink Vanity Shield, Baleful Herald Vanity Deflector, Aegis Engines (not shown, but they are the main reason I went for the NX material - gives the ship blue impulse engines that match the blue aegis trails :-D)

In the conference at Khitomer why is this group of Caitian officers wearing uniforms with baby blue, periwinkle, and pink colours instead of the standard red/blue/yellow?

Note on today's maintenance: This was just a restart, and there are no patch notes on any platform.

Done nice and early so I just need to decide what to spend my fortunes on now....

Having recently run "Facility 4028", part of the "Lost Dominion" arc, I noticed the dev team had updated Amar Singh's appearance in that mission to match the revised version we see in the new "The Ultimate Klingon" duology.

So, I decided to check out "The Doomsday Device" and I was a little disappointed to see that B'Vat hadn't likewise been updated there. He still has his old model.

This seems all the more incongruous when when considers that The 2800/Lost Dominion plot had been all but relegated to the ancillary "Galaxy At Large" side mission set, whereas "The Doomsday Device" is still a part of the mainline Klingon War story, the first one a new player will encounter.

His shifting appearance can be quite jarring, and I imagine it is especially so for a new player.

Are there any plans to update B'Vat's appearance in "The Doomsday Device", does anyone know?

Thanks.

A Red Alert Event is up until the 23rd on PC. Complete 5 days to get an Ultimate Tech Upgrade and a Spec Point.

We've temporarily blocked the Neotype Omni-Directional Cryonic Beam Array and the Neotype Cryonic Torpedo Launcher from being reclaimed due to a technical issue. We plan to turn them back on as soon as it's fixed!

Don't get me wrong, I love the ease recently of getting daily event progress with the DSEs, but does she really have to introduce herself every time? Assuming you grabbed the mission to do 3 of the DSEs she will introduce herself 3 times in the intended gameplay loop like we have never met.

Good morning, carrier Captains!

I am working on a personal fan project involving my latest ship obsession, the Ark Royal-class carrier. I want to model the fighter bays, perhaps with an animated launch procedure. Maybe I'll even try making an MSD. Who knows!

I know the red circled doors are the fighter bays as there is the alternate skin that has these open with forcefields.

What are the blue circled rectangles? They seem too deliberate to be meaningless decoration. Are they recovery bays?

Has anyone come across an internal schematic of the Ark Royal either official or fan-made?

Hey folks! If you noticed the auto-loot feature that went live today on PC, enjoy the free preview! It was never meant to go live today, and isn't functioning as it's supposed to, so we'll be disabling it if we haven't already. If it seems partially-finished, that's why. :)

UPDATE: IGNORE ME! Whether we disabled the feature or not, the option was still there in the Options Menu. Thomas made the call that, since the option is visible, that we're going to keep it on. Please keep in mind, it is not a finished feature, but have fun and give us your feedback. :)
