I can't speak about the lag because I don't know how they could fix it, But the TFOs are few and far between and there isn't any real endgame...
Power creep they obviously don't care about fixing because they like the money it brings in, the last time they tried to fix it not only did they fold like a steel chair, they ironically ended up making the power creep even worse in the process.

I do see the complaints about the lag but I experience very little of it myself and never in any actual missions or TFOs, usually just at ESD or DS9.

What is the issue with TFO's? Randoms pop right away and the ones I direct queue into are with in 5 minutes which to me is reasonable. The only ones that take some time are the ones that require more than 5 players.

I mean I can still sit there a half hour or more to get into the less desirable queues...and when I do random TFOs all I mostly get is Starbase One (Which is nothing but a shooting gallery for FaW/CSV).

I've had a bit of rubber banding in TFO's...it hasn't affected me to the point where it caused me to die but it has slowed things down for me a few times.

Thx for sharing the behind the scenes.

So the RA suit can be used as a ship to explore sector space or what's happening? Lol.

Been asking for Kelvin ship for awhile. Good to see it finally delivered.

Any insights in terms of content itself?

The Kelvin stuff came after a screenshot that said Star Trek Online: Legends coming in 2020

So this Sep will be 2410 story ending the whole J'Ula arc. And next year will be episodes/season for Legends.

Ok something to look for then. Hope some real end game content too.

And here I am just wanting a S31 Sci-Int Destroyer still so I can play a Tactical Officer again (don't wanna make one until I get ship haha)

No,NO, NOOOOOO!!!!!!!

Seriously if its R&D I will be livid!!!! I would rather they be Lobi or Lockbox, still expensive but a lot cheaper than R&D.

So I guess they're going to make all the D7's in all of Trek except the Romulan D7 playable

Was there a Kelvin D7 in STO before this screen shot?

There is a Romulan D7 but I don't know if it has the bird....it's the Khenn class. I'm just saying it makes me sad that they're making all of these D7's but they don't want to give Romulans their take on the D7. If it wasn't clear that Romulan development is almost at the bottom of development priority I would say maybe they could make a unique Cruiser, for KlingRoms the D7 and for FedRoms some kind of Romulan/Vulcan hybrid.

In TOS the D7 used by the romulans had the bird of prey on the belly of the ship.

I know, I was saying I wasn't sure if the Khenn class has a bird on the bottom or is just a standard D7.
