    I had planned to level a Cardsssian character but with what they seem to be doing plus another new starter area, I’m going to wait and see what happens. I’m at a bit of a loose end in-game currently as I feel I’m in a bit of a rut with content.

    Also with Temporal Recruit coming back being a definite maybe, i'm pretty tempted to just wait and see.

    Not soon enough!

    Age of Discovery will be launching in the fall. Best guess is late September/early October.

    The Anniversary event will be January/February.

    The Crossfield has got exceptionally expensive in recent weeks, effectively doubling in price more or less. I've heard tell that there was one player, I forget the name, who is something of a major whale and is also rather anti-Discovery, that they bought up a huge number of the Crossfield packs and simply deleted them to stop anyone else getting one. Somewhat extreme behaviour, but that's allegedly the reason behind the price hike.

    Wow, if that's true, then that whale needs a Gibbs style NCIS slap upside the head. That's some screwed up priorities right there.

    From Priority One podcast on Monday:

    Task force ops (STFs) will be unlocking at lower levels (will use the new scaling tech from ViL)

    a random queue button is coming

    no cooldowns on randoms

    people who queue random get large bonus

    As far as stories go they will be building new stories in both 2410 and 2256 and will just insert the stories where they belong as they are made
    He also said they are now viewing the account as the player on not the character so everything they are doing moving forward is about helping players share things account wide as much as possible.

    WHICH makes so much sense. This is a QoL favoring the community.

    There has been speculation that the Tier VI mastery on the Jem Hadar vessels is/was a dry run test to see if it could be applied to the lockbox and lobi ships.

    If there’s even a shred of fact to that speculation, I’m all for such a change. I can’t see it doing any damage to the game economy as someone still needs to find/buy the ship to start with and I’d imagine the average player isn’t in the habit of paying millions (if not billions) to buy duplicates for alts, so the market should stay roughly the same. That aside, SWTOR has had a system like this for years for mounts, cosmetic items etc and it hasn’t hurt their economy any.

    Doing something like this - letting a player grind or purchase a non-zen ship as an account wide unlock would throw the community a major bone and probably help restore some goodwill. That said, even if they do it, I could see them still keeping the likes of the Temporal Light Cruiser and such as a one shot deal as those are major marketing items and are still quite rarely seen despite the demand for them.

    If they actually made lockbox/lobi ships account wide by unlocking a VI tier (like the dominion ships), I would be more inclined in trying to purchase more of those type of ships. I own two, and only two currently because I can't share them across characters. Preference is always C-Store ships over lockbox/lobi ships.
