  How about instead of adding new projects, you add the ability to cancel old ones. For Fleet and Reputation systems.

  To the best Fleet in Starfleet € LGBT Of STARFLEET 9th Order. I want to dedicate this comment to those Officers and leaders for their hard work and dedication in making our fleet great.

• wilbor2 @ Feb 14th, 2013 11:03AM

  i wont a little vid for embassy shuttle

• kirimuffin @ Feb 14th, 2013 10:48AM

  Oooooh, I really like both of these. Especially the KDF one.

• vnexus @ Feb 14th, 2013 8:29AM

  Sooooo.... where's the Dabo Table ? Im jus sayin though.. fun factor.

• walt04 @ Feb 14th, 2013 8:20AM

  The special Projects are nice...if a guy can finish them ...I have had a bad accident that prevented me from getting on..unfortunately my teammates were unable to finish the breen orniment fleet project. so therefore theres no possible way for me to finish the project. and will not be able to do any further projects till next year. I tried buying the orniments on the exchange but none are available at the exchange. (Bajorin Beads) There was a promise that there would be a way to finish this and we would not be stuck with this that as far as I can tell has not been fulfilled. there should be a way to drop these projects. even if theres a penalty for doing so. (loss of resources already contributed. Like the concept. just not well thought out and no support if u find yourself in a bind.

• camryboy

  All you had to do was ask. I just deleted alot of those like 2 days ago, but I still have some on my other fleet's banks. I will be happy to put them on the exchange for u

  LGBT of Starfleet 9th Order

• kineticimpulser

  the fleet leader can cancel that project now... it's in this week's patch notes

• kemumaki1 @ Feb 14th, 2013 7:11AM

  I was wondering when they set an animation or a movie for inter starbase-embassy shuttle.

• commanderkassy @ Feb 14th, 2013 6:00AM

  Wow, KDF getting the shaft.

• zerobang @ Feb 14th, 2013 3:31AM

  first cosmetic update to the base that seems worth the Dil imho in a long time.

• warbird001 @ Feb 14th, 2013 1:52AM

  Looks like I was right about the Foundry... There is no real way to Fleets to get the Fleet Marks needed with going through the PvE Queues now. I raised concerns about Cryptic attempting to promote Foundry missions that only they found worthy and not anyone elses. Looks like I was right... again. This game is slowly getting worse.

• captaind3

  Yeah that really cut deep. I was playing lots of great foundry missions. Now I it's not good for time management. Still this is a fantastic addition fed side.

• captaincarsten @ Feb 14th, 2013 12:26AM

  Me and a friend knew about that window for the shuttles down below, as we glitched out of the map once, and saw them by accident :D

• tazurensavulen

  As did I once.

• blznfun

  Same here. You could go through the wall between the transporter and ops. I loved being able to do that.

• cyberpunkfalcon @ Feb 13th, 2013 9:08PM

  Cool the Klingon pic is the best!

• silverfaustx @ Feb 13th, 2013 7:49PM

  u can join my fleet, we get these features done instantly..

• dessniper @ Feb 13th, 2013 7:25PM

  Special projects are nothing more then Dilithium sinks. I tell my fleet members if they want to work on they feel free to do so. I'd personally would rather put the effort into something that actually improves the fleet.

• samsonhalfzware @ Feb 13th, 2013 6:18PM

  well that explains when i glitched through the floor on the first day in our starbase all those months ago why i could see walkways and parked shuttles and the saucer section of a larger ship poking in

• leoll2

  Yeah, I got that glitch once and my friend said: "I'm pretty sure that they'll release a project soon that allows us to see it." Finally!

• usskeystone @ Feb 13th, 2013 5:30PM

  Hhnnnngggghhh!! My fleet is so dilithium-poor right now! Everybody's having to use all theirs for reputation projects and we're in the middle of a tier-upgrade!

• trinalhydra

  Nobody's making you or your fleet do this project, it's entirely by your fleet's choice to do them.

• blznfun

  Oh come on trinalhydra, lets be reallistic here. Of course no one is "making" them do it, but with only 8000 (9000 if you do the doff missino for vets at the academy) a day refinement of dilithium and the only other way to get refined is to exchange ZEN (Real life money) for refined, is a joke. I feel sorry for the smaller fleets who struggle with this everyday. Cryptic needs to increase the refinement cap for gold members to about 20,000 a day. Especially with fleet provisions through the roof on dilithium prices.

• foundrelic @ Feb 13th, 2013 4:35PM

  Yeah, 200k dilithium that we need to actually advance the base. Pass. Maybe if they rerun with a discount like we've been told they will in the future.

• scififan78

  Actually they said they might discount on re-runs.....never said they would.

• baudl @ Feb 13th, 2013 4:24PM

  and if these weren't just cosmetics, but gave some buffs to all fleetmembers...what a great game this would be...

• kdawgenigma @ Feb 13th, 2013 3:53PM

  It's a shame my fleet doesn't feel the need for cosmetics. Would like to have some of these things

• sentinel64 @ Feb 13th, 2013 3:03PM

  So the KDF get large Bat'leths for their starcase and Feds get see-through floors so that the guy on the floor below can look up the skirts of the unsuspecting femal ensign standing on the glass aluminum floor. Very naughty STO.

• jcp26

  That is probably why skirts were phased out of the uniform code in the mid 23rd century.

• erei1

  KDF have Orions, they don't need to trick unsuspecting femal.

• kolarkortar @ Feb 13th, 2013 3:00PM

  Another week another boring news cycle

• wilsonkline @ Feb 13th, 2013 2:53PM

  All these lovely additions/projects and fleet ships for starbases yet still no algorithim to link the material required to the number of members in a fleet. Small fleets will constantly lose out to the massive fleets. CCP can do it in EvE for Wardec fees and incursion rewards so why cant Cryptic.

• mattachine @ Feb 13th, 2013 2:38PM

  Instead of the transparent aluminum I would liked to have seen the fleet logo in that spot on the floor.

• scififan78

  I agree with this 100000000%

• usskeystone

  Right!!

• captaind3

  Why not both?

• turbomagnus @ Feb 13th, 2013 2:17PM

  At the risk of sounding like a whiney little petaQ; fleet starbase projects, fleet embassy projects, fleet ships... How about showing some love for us non-fleet players every once in a while?

• darkjeff

  Studies haves have shown that players associated with guilds stay subscribed longer to MMOs. Obviously STO isn't subscription based, but the concept remains - players who are in Fleets stay around longer, and are thus more susceptable to spending money.

• blznfun

  Join a fleet. After all this game is an MMO...

• fubbe @ Feb 13th, 2013 2:12PM

  Still waiting for a project that does something to the interior of the other floors.... :/

• splitboy

  On FED side the Security Personal and the Exocomps did that.
