The 12th Fleet: Starbase Valhalla

I smell another Doff Nerf incoming....

This would be a good move if you could be pulled out of warp by another player or random NPC and attacked. Instead of being a boring journey system to system it would become a completely new level to the game where you have to plan your journey and set a proper course through the sector rather than just setting your destination and going AFK. Kinda like Elite but tbh i was hoping for completely 100% open sector space like Battlestar Galactica Online, Kerrat basically.

only thing i liked about bso was the rcs skill.

Yeah that's awesome.

Husker/Sysil you guys hit it on the head in a nutshell....Fix the that's broke, and if we mean so much to you give us something we can REALLY use and enjoy instead of spending time on workarounds!

It wouldn't last 5 minutes on Tribble before the STO forums exploded from the player outrage. Cryptic will NEVER do this.

That's the problem, we have children playing.

so cryptic would do it. just like federation was to never ever have carriers

Well honestly I am hoping for some more realistic travel time; right now I have a ship that can get from one side of a sector to the next before slipstream finishes. Currently there is no real advantage with ships that can fly faster and stay in slipstream longer.

You will always have transwarp and some quick travels (and they may even sell quick travels things like the diplomatic transwarp thingys) but having things spread out to make it seem as if space is a lot bigger then it currently feels would be a welcome to me.

We can only hope that now that theyre knocking down the walls that theyll increase the distance between the systems.
