Greetings 44th!

Here is your 60th Sunday Supplemental for August 29th 2021.

First up is the traditional welcome to the newest 44th Fleet Members. Thanks for choosing the Mighty 44th!

Welcome back good captain! Let us know if you need anything!

Welcome aboard and feel free to ask questions! Again, thanks for flying with the Mighty 44th! Also, don’t forget to join the 44th-diplo channel by typing: /channel_join 44th-diplo

This is how we communicate between our (4) Fed and (2) KDF fleets. It isn’t a rule or requirement, but things will seem very quiet in the fleet without it.

Also, here is a way for you guys to track the promotion schedule: https://trello.com/b/caMTvkl3/44th-fleet-promotions

It is viewable by anyone and you don’t need to sign in, create an account or download an app.

Fleet Housekeeping

First I want to wish everyone in Ida’s path safety and good health now and in the days to come. Ida isn’t making that easy I’m sure. Anyway, be careful out there. We are thinking about you all.

Its a pretty good bet that the Agents of Yesterday is coming back to PC on Sept. 8th. 2021… aka the 55th Anniversary of Star Trek. My advice is to create a Temporal Agent as soon as you can and get them past the tutorial. The rewards are too great to pass up! Here is a Link to the wiki page detailing the original event that took place back in August of 2016.

That being said, we are going to need some space for all of those characters. The truth is, even if the event doesn’t happen, we are fast approaching the roster limits on Fed side once again. So yep! We are likely going to need to make another fleet at some point! As usual, we will have a Name our Fleet Contest / Poll once the fleet is officially created. Anyway, more on that later.

Thanks to all who took the time to swap characters around the various fleets over the last couple of weeks! It certainly helped the roster situation out some. Remember that once you reach the Fleet Rank of Commander you can move characters around to the other fleets.

If we had our way, we would only have a 44th Fleet and a 44th Assault Squadron. But since we all love alts and Star Trek Online only gives us 500 characters slots per fleet we just keep having to make new fleets as we grow. Its a wonderful problem to have! 🙂

Federation Fleets	Roster Count	Max Character Limit	Roster Needs
44th Fleet	385	2	Can Take More Characters From Delta and ‘Especially’ Epsilon
44th Delta Fleet	417	3	Need To Spread Your Characters Out If Possible
44th Gamma Fleet	393	3	Can Take More Characters From Delta and Epsilon
44th Epsilon Fleet	425	No Official Limit (Yet)	Need to Spread Your Characters Out If Possible (Filling up fast) Hence the need for a new fleet to put new members into. 🙂

 

Lastly, I just wanted to mention that our Discord News room Bot is broken / not updating in a timely fashion. Unfortunately this is a Discord issue so there isn’t much we can do about it.

PC Patch Notes for August 24th 2021

 

Reroll and Pass With Dilithium!

I am aware that this ‘feature’ isn’t all that popular with a lot of players. Personally, this doesn’t have much impact on my game since I usually torture myself and take the Endeavors and Admiralty missions as they come. But for those who aren’t fans of paying Dilithium for something used to be a random drop, I certainly understand where you are coming from. Judging by the tweet below, Cryptic is also now aware that this is not the most popular gaming feature.

Hey folks – we hear you on taking the free re-roll and pass tokens away. Discussions are happening internally, you'll here something from me as soon as we know more.

I would also like to throw this in as a reminder (not that I think 44th Fleet members need a reminder) that each of us represents the 44th Fleet through our actions and how we treat others. Please don’t do what these folks did….

Hey folks! Love you all, you know that.

Whenever there's something that's legitimately upset the playerbase, there's always a few folks who take it on themselves to try and find me on a non-official or personal account to attack me further.

Please don't be those people.

Special Phoenix Prize Pack Event!

Don’t miss out on free Phoenix Prize Packs! They cost 4,500 Dilithium each or 40,000 for 10. So it is worth it even if you do only get a green token. Simply head to DS9 or Drozana once per day to pick one up. Plus, the Starship Upgrade Tokens are returning to the prize packs!

Do you Believe in a No Win Scenario!

Wrap Up

I just want to say thanks to everyone who chose to fly with the 44th Fleet! You make the 44th Fleet what it is! And I want to thank everyone (these wonderful people here) https://startrek.44thfleet.com/fleet-officers/who keep the 44th Fleet running smoothly.

Take care and have a great week!

Note: If you have a topic you would like to see in the Sunday Supplemental, feel free to let me know and I’ll see what I can do about including it.

Thanks everyone and cheers!

Your 60th, seeing some grey in the fray there Akula 🙂

And yes fleet, thanks with helping spreading your alts around – finding a spot for all your characters is becoming a bit of a chore but we try very hard to give all of them access to the good fleet stuff without any one getting ‘orphaned’ in a smelly damp corner on one of the lower decks of an “alt fleet”. We are several fleets acting as one, so there really is no difference if you are in Main (44th Fleet), Delta, Omega, Gamme, Assault, or the 44th Space Potato Division.

Agents of Yesterday does give some good extra’s and account wide goodies so create a new alt during this period: you don’t have to max it out all the way to level 65 even, just have it complete its tutorial and you can get back to it later.
A good way to avoid burn-out trying to level all your alts and ships is just switch them around and play a specific alt/ship a certain day or even just every (other) week.

Remember this is all for fun, not another job!

HEY! I resemble that remark LOL 🙂

Thanks for the update Shark Boss.

I am not sure if I will make a Agent of Yesterday, since there will be no Klingons. I still have not finish my other Recruits, I love TOS so it’s possible, I was researching Andorians before my computers GPU crapped out.

Well you could just create an Andorian and level/finish it later. Just get its initial/tutorial eps done and park it in a corner with a bucket of icecubes, as I’m told once they are like popcorn for the blue aliens.
