    Star Trek Online Changes to the changes to Reddit Fleets and [RedditChat]


    Changes to the changes to Reddit Fleets and [RedditChat]

    Posted: 05 Jan 2021 03:05 AM PST

    Hey everyone. Big thank you for the mostly supportive and respectful tone from the previous thread. I've tried to watch [RedditChat] very closely during the weekend and it's obvious from people talking there and comments on the subreddit that the changes to the fleet rank structure and privileges are largely well received and that the community values the in-game channel and does not want to see it gone or in private mode. We've therefor decided to reverse the change to [RedditChat]. Expect more to come on how we'll want to handle the moderation issue in-game.

    Also, <3

    Just to recap:

    What does this mean for you and your toons you may have in the fleets?

    • Any and all toons currently in our fleets will immediately be promoted to rank 3 (if your toon is currently rank 4, it will remain so).

    • All rank 3 (and higher) toons will get invite and promotion privileges in all five of our fleets, so you may invite and promote your friends or alts yourself to give them store access.

    • We will no longer be enforcing the inactivity policy. However, we reserve the right to remove any long inactive toons from the fleet should the roster reach the 500 member limit.

    • Since we are unable to effectively moderate our in-game channel [RedditChat], it will be set to private. Everyone currently in the channel may continue to use it for cross-faction and cross-fleet chat but new players will not be able to join the channel from now on. Please note that should you leave the channel or be kicked from it, you will not be able to rejoin it.

    • [RedditChat] is once again open for business. Details on how we want to proceed to solve the issue will be following shortly.

    What do the changes mean for the subreddit r/sto and our official discord channel?

    • Nothing. The changes strictly concern the in-game assets and nothing else. The subreddit and discord channel will both remain in their current form.

    Is cryptic their own worst enemy when it comes to story mission?

    Posted: 05 Jan 2021 09:10 AM PST

    The last few years we have had story missions that is fully voice over with actors and celebrities. Now Cryptic said earlier that they will lower the rate new story missions comes out every year cause of time investment and cost.

    Now we get patrols to fill a bit of the cap of content, but I'm just going to put it out there:

    Do we really only have to get fully voiced 30min story missions? Since the Foundry went away, I would really love to have just ordinary story missions without all the celebrities and voice actors.

    If we can't get exploration, why not get "exploration missions" once every month where we tackle just random issues and enemies that Star trek series dealt with all the time.

    Barbie question

    Posted: 05 Jan 2021 12:11 AM PST

    Rocking the Fek'lhri vanity shield on pretty much every ship I've been cruising in lately and have noticed that the visuals change. Sometimes its the basic grey hues with hints of red, other times there is a layer of ice on the hull. Like, I woke up late for the TFO and didn't have time to scrape the windshield? Anybody else notice this? Why does it switch back and forth? Guess I could try to take some screenies if necessary but can't be the only one who's seen this.

    Are there any good quality (very rare and up) phaser rifles that fit into the 2409-2411 era?

    Posted: 04 Jan 2021 06:54 PM PST

    It just seems kinda weird for my modern federation character to be running around with a Discovery era phaser rifle, even though it's really good.

    "First Complement" did not grant any Duty Officers

    Posted: 04 Jan 2021 12:52 PM PST

    While leveling a new toon and hitting Level 11 i got "First Complement" as always- went to Lt. Ferra and the mission counted as completed, but i wasnt given my duty officers. They didnt pop up after a map transfer or anything either. Not the end of the world, but... yeah.

    [Xbox] New Fleet; Special Operations

    Posted: 05 Jan 2021 05:44 AM PST

    Hey guys, hope you are all well.

    I recently created a new fleet on STO (Xbox version). It's called "Special Operations" and I created it because there aren't enough roleplay fleet's on the Xbox version.

    If you play STO on the Xbox then send a message to:

    "Fleet Admiral Velal@LuckyGrunt"

    You can join provided you're level 10, or we could just hang out and play some TFO's or missions.

    Thanks for your time. Stay safe out there. Peace and love.

    Question for someone with TOS character permanently in 23rd century.

    Posted: 04 Jan 2021 07:40 PM PST

    When I've asked how this is done, people told me that it's redoing the initial arc, then duty officers, then admiralty.

    Questions -

    1. Do I have to buy the duty officers? After redoing the 4 missions in the initial arc multiple times, I reached level 11 today and although it opened up the duty officer system, it did not give me an initial complement, and there are no personnel officers on 23rd cent ESD to do the free missions that result in duty officers. Won't let me claim the lower decks Doffs, and says I don't meet the requirements to purchase the federation doff pack. How do I get some duty officers? No email or exchange in 23rd cent ESD either.
    2. Do you get any more free ships? When I hit level 10 there was a promotion to Lieutenant Commander, but no ship token, and in the ship vendor I can still only see the Walker and the Pioneer.
    3. As a follow on to #2, what about admiralty. With no more free ships, seems like it will take forever to do any of the admiralty campaigns with just the one ship, although it did let me claim the Appalachia I got with my Arc points. But that won't matter if I can't get to level 52.

    Accuracy & HUD Question - Console (XBOX)

    Posted: 04 Jan 2021 04:19 PM PST

    Accuracy & HUD Question - Console (XBOX)

    So I've searched and searched but cannot find answers to these two questions I have.

    1. I understand how hit chance is calculated, but my accuracy doesn't seem to be counting or increasing with gear??? Looking at my weapons alone, I should have at *least* +90 accuracy, but my ship stats always show 25.00, unless I'm in combat and I've seen it hit maybe 35.00. But I miss. A lot. Probably 33% of the time. What am I doing wrong?
    2. As noted in the title, I'm on console (xbox) and I cannot figure out what this HUD element is... next to the XP circle around the map, below rank. I've included an image with the bar in question surrounded by a red box.

    TIA for any help!

    Farming Transphasic Torpedos

    I'd like to upgrade my ship with Transphasic Torpedoes. But they are too expensive in the auction house, does anyone know a good way to farm them?

    Is there a way to block combat parsers?

    Posted: 04 Jan 2021 06:01 PM PST

    Is there a way to block another player from reading my info with their combat parser? I'm thinking no, but thought I would throw it out there in case there a setting I missed. Thank you in advance.
