It’s also possible that “Nova Squadron” is just one of many (as Value Subtracted mentions herein) and that there are many other Nova Squadrons without any issues in the intermittent years between the incidents. It’s possible that, like most things in the Star Trek universe, we only see the times when something interesting/dramatic occurs, not the boring day-to-day.

Said another way, just because you periodically have a rowdy graduating class from primary/secondary education, doesn’t mean you stop having graduating students.

From March 21st at 8am PT to March 25th at 12pm PT on PC, every Tech Upgrade used will apply twice as many Technology Points toward your next Upgrade

Looks like Pahvo event stuff (no changes, just the addition of it to the game) and general fixes related to the recent anniversary bundle.

The Defense of Pahvo Event will begin on PC on March 18th at 8am PT and run for 3 weeks before concluding. Meanwhile, it is expected to appear on Xbox and PlayStation starting on April 29th.

This Featured Event will be the second of a series of upcoming Events that will participate in the seventh installment of our multi-event system known as an Event Campaign. You’ll need to participate in six events in total in order to earn the Grand Prize: A Tier 6 Infinity Promotional Ship of your choice, two free T6 Zen Store Coupons, AND 1500 Lobi!

• Players may earn 50 Event Campaign Progress for each day they participate in an eligible event.
• Buying out an eligible event will include up to 700 Event Campaign Progress.
• Each event’s buyout only grants as much Event Campaign Progress as is relative to the amount paid, after pro-rated discounts are applied. This means that paying half price, (because you participated in 7 out of the 14 required days so far) will grant you 350 Event Campaign Progress. Essentially, you get what you pay for.

I would think that any object (including the ship) is traveling at a sub-light speed within the warp bubble and therefore would only keep that same velocity when (catastrophically) exiting the warp bubble. Unless by exiting the warp bubble in an uncontrolled manner creates some other force which slows the object somehow.

My understanding is that the warp bubble is moving space around the object (including the ship) rather than accelerating the object to FTL (faster-than-light) speeds, thus we really only have to consider the relative velocities within the warp bubble.

Edit to add: Oh, also, I should add that (IMO) the object cannot continue to travel at FTL speed since it has no warp drive of its own to maintain the warp field.

I really like their thorough patch notes and how they seem to quickly address player concerns/satisfaction. Better to have the game be fun rather than set-in-stone, IMO.

From March 11th at 8am PT to March 18th at 12pm PT on PC, all of our Red Alert events will be returning at once

From March 11th at 8am PT to March 18th at 12pm PT on all platforms, your Admiralty missions will give out bonus rewards!

I second many of your points. And, also…

“the purple D”

Had me immediately thinking, “Well, STO vanity shields are canon now, I guess.”

The mugato was an excellent choice!

The intent behind my original reply was to complain and hope for a change in how dark recent Trek shows have been, except SNW. I know we all have our favorites; I’m just not at all a fan of this trend of the bad guys being cool in Star Trek. Again, in Star Trek. The casts, the acting, the production are all great and I’m glad more Trek exists; I, personally, just wish it was a bit more shiny.

Do I want those shows not to exist in the first place? No. I just don’t rewatch them like I do others, thus I don’t care to make pumpkins about starring characters who are not the characters I’d want in humanity’s future.

That’s great! My original en-edited reply congratulated you, but then I thought, “This is the internet. Burrito Trucks can’t carve pumpkins…” LOL

My favorite is the Mugato.

Fair point and well done (to the artists)!!

How about we carve a Spock or Picard or Mariner or really anyone else who isn’t a genocidal dictator? Hmm? Maybe?

No? Perhaps my dream for Star Trek has too much hope for humanity’s future? Not enough grit, tears, and flashy booms?

Agreed. I would have loved to have that kind of callback to the story.

That was a lot of fun to watch. Thanks for providing the links to the various segments!

Groundhog Day

Groundhog Day

Agreed. I’d say that Nemesis theme with Blue Skies is a close second. “A New Ending”

Now I have the ahhh ahhh in my head again. I like the OG opening, but hate the choral part.
