Why Everyone is Mad About the 14th Anniversary Bundle | Star Trek Online

Ойындар

Star Trek Online announced that the premium ship for the 14th Anniversary bundle is going to be the Tal Shiar Adapted Destroyer, which has made a lot of players unhappy. Since we didn't get a Ten Forward Weekly tonight, let's talk why, for those of you who don't understand what all the fuss is about.

    Except the Sagan isn't actually that popular and also has little to do with Wolf 359. Wouldn't have hurt if they had simply added a completely new and exclusive to this bundle ship. Like a new Legendary Sovereign that's better than the one from the 10th anniversary bundle.

    Adding the Parliament to Wolf 359 was inspired by the fan book We Have Engaged The Borg by the Wolf 359 Project. While the Parliament was first introduced in Lower Decks, that doesn't mean the ship is brand new for the shows time period. In fact, if you look at the registry numbers for Parliament class ship seen in Lower Decks, their registry numbers line up with ships that would be active around the time of Wolf 359. There's no existing canon that discounts the possibility of the Parliament being active that early. Same with the Akira class.

    The "premium" ship being a 7 yr old ship with a locked to ship console & warp core is disappointing. If/when Cryptic decided to go this route I think Cryptic should've included both TS Adapted ships with unlocked items. Besides that, I think earlier today/night Cryptic deciding not to even give notice of cancelling &/or rescheduling the 10 Forward livestream exposes exactly how Cryptic thinks & respects the STO player base. I think the sentiment is more disappointed than mad. I'll raise my pitchfork by not using my wallet.

    I appreciate the point you're making and I get your perspective, but there are some things you should keep in mind? 1) Not all players, even serious players, are concerned with the DPS meta. you can make pretty much any ship *viable* for PVE content even if it isn't optimal, so a lot of people, myself included, just want cool ships that look cool. DPS chasers are probably a very small fraction of the overall playerbase. New players can't do it yet, casual players may have reconciled themselves with never being competitive, and a lot of others just...don't give a shit? You're plugged into the DPS build community, so you're surrounded by people who are focused on that aspect of the game, but Cryptic has to consider what's going to sell to more general audiences. Which leads to 2) What is good for the DPS community *may not actually sell as well* as a bundle targeted at a broader market. Sure, the DPS chasers have some pull in the community and help shape perception of certain ships, but a lot of people might just think the spiny swoopy destroyer thing is cool looking? And if there's enough people like that to offset the people who are upset at the lack of useful meta build options, then it makes more sense for them to go that route. Short version: Cryptic's marketing may just literally not be aimed at you.

    I also think that the Adapted Battlecruiser is faulty in design by having a warp core as opposed to a singularity. The loss of things like plasma shockwave, singularity overcharge, singularity jump and quantum absorption (I don't care about warp shadows) is a big loss for the Tal Shiar ship. I feel like we get hosed by it having a warp core, particularly one that doesn't offer any extra features. It's part of a ship set, but we can't even get the Enhanced Shrapnel Torpedo Launcher anymore.

    Given the team's cooperation with project wolf 359's story, the tal Shiar ship fits for ships that tailed the borg and was lost. So it fits the theme but the ship is not desirable for the reasons stated. I'd like the mirror warship since a connie is burning in 359 but that ship can't even use the refit skin so we might get the parliament or the Talshiar Battlecruiser at best. They could always hope that the nonship exclusives that will be added will push people towards the bundle instead of adding another premium ship which imo would be a mistake

    Well, problem is in that fact - premium ships in bundles are themed or QoL improvements. Or, in ideal case - both. Now we had that "adapted". Its not themed to Wolf 359 at all. Yes, I can see its connection like "wolf359>borg>adapted", but its quite loose. And as for now - that ship isn't QoL, and isn't themed, so skip it. Maybe extra floof will make it more appealing, but...need to look on other ships there.

    Personally, I don’t care about the premium ship, my big problem is the actual main content of the bundle. Yes we’re getting a bunch of new ships, but they’re the ones that are most well known for being the hastily made debris field that didn’t have to much thought out into them. Yes I think the 25th century versions look great (I’ll probably get the challenger), but I feel like they lack the hype behind them that previous anniversary ships had. Hopefully their stats are good, but I wouldn’t want to pay 135 just for starship traits and consoles.

    I'm not particularly bothered about the inclusion of the Tal Shiar Destroyer, even though it doesn't make much sense. What really annoys me is that not all the Wolf 359 ships are included in the pack. If they were, I would've considered buying the pack, but now I'll just pick up a couple of the ships individually. These packs are way too expensive, and I'm not going to waste my money on them.

    I don't know if I am the only one but none of this ships do anything for me visually. So I am a hard no. I already have more consoles than can equip and a tough time deciding what traits to not use. So i am out on this one. If they had put in the mirror warship I would have paid for that account wide. I already have it on 4 or five of my character's but it is my favorite ship to fly.

    Meanwhile I'm ignoring the bundle as ALL the Wolf 359 ships look like crap to me, and I'd rather buy ships I want to fly(I did break the trend and use my coupon on the Gargarin. Had everything else I want to fly after my first year-long campaign.) Although way back when t6 ships were locked at 50+, I did enjoy flying the Heavy Cruiser with the Stargazer skin with it's sleek swept FOUR nacelles...but now I have the Sagitaurus for that aesthetic. Nah, instead I'm trying to figure out what I want to do for the KDF recruit event. Since coming back last year, I only did the TOS recruit, and while some might enjoy creating tons of characters, I already have an KDF alien turned Orion Science Carrier pilot, an Orion pirate Tac, and a Klingon Engineer flying a T6 Mogh. I now have the LTS, so I could do a Talaxian, but the problem is still, what career and ship? Maybe the Destroyer and lean in on the LTS, but then, do I REALLY want to make ANOTHER engineer? I have one per faction PLUS my only JH and TOS alts are engis...but being able to be tanky in any ship is super nice and who can say no to turrets and drones? For the Loyalty trait, does the 'Incoming healing increased by 5%' work on summons and BOFFs, or just player teamates?

    Borg ships dont really work that well in my opinion see the assimilator, I think why some are not happy with that romulan ship is becasue its a 2013 lockbox ship that finally is account unlock its dated unless they updated it to better its too dated for end of game stuff, can be good for a newcomer but plenty of better ships. Borg ships dont work for players becasue its all corridors a borg cube or sphere has no bridge. I think people would want that romulan ship more if it wasnt too old and its updated with how STO is now its different than when it came out as a lockbox ship.

    Coming from someone who dosen't care about starship stats at all, I have several toons that are still flying around in T5U ships, I think it's even worse. I bought the 12th anniversery bundle basically for those stupid Terran Empire/Inquisitor uniforms (whose real world value is probably around $10). It was objectively a waste of money, but I really, really wanted to make a Terran Empire Ferasan. This bundle has nothing from a fluff prospective. You get a phaser rifle. Who cares!

    I know it's a Wolf 259 themed bundle, but with the Guardian having a TNG era skin and it being the first T6 ship it would have been a perfect opportunity to give it a much needed update, skin remaster and possibly even a legendary version. I feel like it would have made a better addition to the bundle than the Adapted Tal Shiar ship. They already proved that not every ship in the bundle needs to be with the full theme of the rest with the Tal Shiar ship which, yes, is a "borg-adjacent" theme but then the Guardian is a TNG-adjacent theme with it's TNG skin. I mean yeah it would have been technically a 5th "new" ship, but it would really just have been a skin revamp and a stat update (maybe a new console to go with it as well), and sure a new trait but that's about it, hardly a ground up design. You are correct, that stuff doesn't happen over night... but it's not as if they don't plan for this type of thing in advance... at least I hope they do. Technically they have an entire year to work on these things. Now a last minute change is just that, but I do think they could have picked a better ship... literally _almost_ any ship would have been better than the Tal Shiar Adapted Destroyer... key word there " _almost_ "

THEN KICKED OUT OF THE ANNIVRSARY MATCH 90% of the way through with another 'SERVER NOT RESPONDING' error. Finally allowed to log back in, but now back at Spacedock, NO PROGRESS REWARDS, have to play the DAMNED STUPID Event A G A I N! No other problems with ANY other mmo or MP title. Just STO. Always just STO. Half ASSED STO can suck it. So very not spending $$$ on STO. Going to use up my coupons and wean off or quit cold turkey.

    I can understand why you'd be upset at this but FOR ME I just don't get it. I don't chase the meta. "Oh look at me! I can melt the biggest toughest enemy in the game in 0.68 seconds!" I find that completely boring, honestly. With me personally, if I can do something and it's a little challenging to survive and win then I'm satisfied. Most of my characters use theme builds. for example my main Romulan character is in a Laeosa using mostly Romulan Plasma weapons and the Romulan space set from the Reputation in a DEWSCI ish build. Is it meta, probably not and I just don't care. (Just letting you know I don't go for Elite TFOs or for PvP. I know my limits and I never liked PvP in any game. I honestly have too few hours in the day to put the effort required to survive in those.) Me personally I'm only mildly disappointed with this bundle as announced mostly because of the lack of the Parliament due to me not having that ship and wanting it for a theme build and not really having the excess cash to just throw at the CHANCE of getting in a lockbox, but that is just my opinion

    I think people are being very, very, very over reactionary about this. Gotta remember, the vast majority of STO players are NOT min-maxers, they are not people with 20 ships, max rolled equipment, and looking to push a little more DPS out of their ships. The vast majority are "this ship looks cool, im going to blast." And those people can find value out of bundles like this.

    No. You know why I know? Cause I’m one of those people. My main runs on a Protostar purely because it’s cool. This promo ship is garbage. It’s not only terrible for min-maxing, it’s terrible in general. Even in terms of liking its niche theme the battlecruiser is superior to it! People reference the meta of the Engels and Styx because they sold bundles whether you like it or not. Yes, they could add a ship to this bundle which is just cool. That’s fine too. But the adapted derpstroyer ain’t it.

THAT is what pisses me off not some mmo ship build crap. I have to rely on stuff like Bridge Commander to fly that ship.
