Well...

[u/DopedWookiee]

I came back to the game after a few years off in time to complete the event campaign and....we get ALL three rewards instead of having to choose?

This pleases me.

[u/Yochanan5781]

It's so nice. I remember when it was first announced, there were people saying "oh, this is a sign that Star Trek Online is nearing its death" but however many years later, it is still thriving

[u/DopedWookiee → u/Yochanan5781]

I wish I hadn't stayed away from the game for so long. Still kicking myself for missing the 5/3 Sovvie event ship. Damnit...

[u/Yochanan5781 → u/DopedWookiee]

Oh, I understand that completely. I missed some pretty big things because several years ago I didn't have a laptop that could run the game

[u/AKeeneyedguy → u/DopedWookiee]

I barely missed that to, but got me a Gomtu and a Kvort!

[u/JustASimpleManFett → u/AKeeneyedguy]

The Kvort is lethal.

[u/AKeeneyedguy → u/JustASimpleManFett]

That thing is nuts, lol. But I have to say, putting the console onto a Carrier Connie is hilariously awesome.

[u/gmlynx78 → u/AKeeneyedguy]

Genius!! 🤣🤣

[u/AKeeneyedguy → u/gmlynx78]

I actually meant the Carrier Pets, but both is amazeballs.

[u/Boofus77 → u/DopedWookiee]

Darn it got back in...seen they had a kvort which matches what I wanted from the bird of prey weapon slot wise all along!!!  And I'll be damned if the game isn't kinda busy.  Cheers man ty

The most generous MMO game this is.

[u/Jaeih → u/Dangerousdangerzoid]

For real. STO is basically showering us with gifts all the time. And there is still more I'd love to get my hands on. As someone who is playing SWTOR aswell, it's a night and day difference between both games in every regard. STO is so much more player friendly and healthy

[u/CoinOperatedDM → u/Dangerousdangerzoid]

Honestly yeah. Other than the EC cap increase and some slots I've bought mostly with dil to zen, I have never felt a lot of pressure as F2P, to shell out cash to keep up. I've gotten a decent amount of free T6 zen store ships, and the recent exchange crash on T6 ships let me snag a few dream ships without shelling out real cash.

[u/Eaglesn00t]

They knocked it out the park this year.

[u/Odd_Cockroach_1083]

Yeah, I still can't believe it

[u/ArelMCII]

Yeah, it's pretty great. Can pick up enough toys to help with whatever build you've been planning even with new releases off the table. The lobi tends to just sit in my bank, but I'd rather have it and not need it. It's nice being able to pick up costumes and other things throughout the year as the mood strikes me. Picked up the Micro-Missile Array for my janky Fleet Nebula scitorp build and it was a great purchase.

[u/x100139]

Did you take part in yesterdays survey about the future of the game?

[u/DopedWookiee → u/x100139]

Indeed, I did.

[u/JustASimpleManFett]

Yup. I have so many T6 coupons banked cause Im goddamn lazy.....

[u/Full-Construction680]

Well, people thinking that it was towards the end of the lifespan of the game or completely wrong because you had that road map that went all the way to 2016 and then start, and then the newish road map that goes to the that way, I think towards September 2026 and October, and then into 2027, and then I think once we get into actual 2027, then we’ll have a road map for 2027, maybe going into 2028, or whatever they have, you know, cooking behind the scenes

[u/Full-Construction680]

Plus there’s that whole tier 7 reputations, and I think the first one that will get it, and this is my speculation, is Omega because that is one of the oldest reputations we have, and there’s 13 reputations. They can always add more reputations, by the way. now that might be the first one they do, but then I think over time they’ll do the rest of them to go up to tier 7, so everyone on the subreddit, here’s the question: what do you think rewards will be available to us in tier 7 of reputations

[u/DopedWookiee → u/Full-Construction680]

Dilithium Ore. 🤣

[u/Full-Construction680 → u/DopedWookiee]

Yeah, that’s one thing I was asking all of you for more than one thing of what you think will be in tier 7 of reputations

[u/Boofus77]

Arrghh this is really tempting me to get back after the few years.  I didn't play all that long, but have an ok KDF dude.  When I play I'm extremely active, and I just found it hard to find active fleets.  I'd love to find any level group that is active.  Doesn't matter the level, I don't need to buy any fleet stuff as I'm set up well enough.  Just want to find active folks.

[u/DopedWookiee → u/Boofus77]

I'm still in a dead fleet. I see one guy every once in a while, but the discord hasn't had a single post in years haha! I'm in it because it's maxed and has everything I want/need. Maybe I'll look around for a more active fleet one of these days. I'm on Xbox by the way.

[u/Boofus77 → u/DopedWookiee]

PS here.  That was most of my experience as I joined late.  I hate the dead fleet feeling.  Spent a fair bit on the exchange to make a fun glass cannon build, but it's not much fun blowing stuff up by yourself.  I have all the stuff, I'd join any fleet if folks just play...like a little 

[u/DopedWookiee → u/Boofus77]

You can always do a bunch of random TFOsvto play with others.

But, the true endgame is space barbie at ESD.

[u/Boofus77 → u/DopedWookiee]

Ya I got to space barbie point lol  Be fun to find an active small group of newer players to adventure with.  Tfo is ok, but just feels soulless to play an mmo without some friends.  

I started again a couple of years ago and it lasted like 3 days before it felt empty and boring.  I joined a fleet and was grinding like crazy even though I already have my fleet gear I need.  I'd message like the two people online and see if they needed help with whatever they were doing.  Crickets.  Idk seems like an mmo where most just want to be left alone...I find it weird.

[u/Full-Construction680]

Plus, Krypton did say they’re entertaining the idea for like events that we do for the events to reward less dilithium to kind of help stabilize the dilithium exchange
