List the five most annoying things in STO.

[Archived Post]

1: Plasma Grenades (specially when trying to ninja-interact with mission objectives)

2: Exploiting an Exposed enemy with a multi-target exploit, just to have four more become exposed after you shoot

3: The scanner picking up every single anomaly on the map when you only got one more plant/alien device/medical crate to scan and finish the damned mission.

4: Boffs who charge at enemy groups you're trying hardly to avoid, a la Leeroy Jenkins.

5: Auxiliary Batteries droping from boss mobs.

Starfleet officers on the bridge of my Bird of Prey. :(

Not being able to tell my BOFFs to holster their weapons.

I don't think I can think of 5 things. hmm..

Oh, then you haven't played enough.. :p

Boffs falling through the ground on away missions!?

Seeing that your exploration mission wasn't properly acquired only after you completed, and thus not getting any SP?!


Although i reckon those are bugs, and not necessarely annoying game mechanics..

Hmm.. you realize that the five people in this thread aren't exactly "in" STO?

well, if you're playing the game, then you're in it. so yes, you are.

if you're not playing the game, then you have no idea what the game is like, and then you wouldn't know what's annoying.

EDIT: i'm just messing with you by the way. i'm not that serious about the game. and to prove it, here's my list:

1. Almost every time I'm sent to "explore" something i end up having to blow something up.

2. swordmaster & targs (i list them together because you usually find them together)

3. wander klingons (or any other fraking alien)

4. no access to a mail station at ganalda station (for sending & retrieving items)

5. when in ground combat and targeting someone, your wasd keys move in different directions.

1- NPC that kill me while i am spawn/reading the scripted transmission & the stopped reactor of course...

2- Sector space is so annoying !

3- People asking where is Zulu.

4- Getting starfleet merit after destroying star fleet ships !

5- I want my skirt, where is my skirt ?

1. Zone chat (Sulu, Romaine & Co.)
2. Gold spam (and no spam-filter add-ons)
3. Blue grid and 'space-highways' in Sector Space (at first I thought I was magically transferred to TRON Online or something)
4. Lack of 360 degree movement so I am forced to climb like a heavy truck on a serpentine
5. Beaming to the bridge of my own starship (at least I have an excuse for poor performance in combat: 'Hey, I am not even on my bridge, it's all my BOs' fault'), and beaming to any friendly place with my weapon unholstered (Starfleet Security sends me hate tells every time ;) )

2. The research nodes spawning a little underground where you can't scan them.

3. No PC/bridge crew fur texture, dog/cat ears tails of any sort. (Yes,I know at least some of it is coming soon.)

4. No ship-wide uniform option for you, bridge officers and the random security red-shirts.

5. Skirts, skants and kilts needed. Long, short, male, especially female, different styles from all generations and new ones.

The useless 'Ask for GM support' option. They never help and only give you canned responses no matter how stuck you are or having a mission that simply won't complete.

7: Fed Klingon BOFFS who duck when equipped with a bat'leth

8: Shield Reinforcement sound playing from everyone to everyone

9: Heavy Plasma Torpedoes! (At least before the Automated Defense Turret)

10: Lack of in-game setable macros.

[Archived Post]

1. Spawn camping NPCs in fleet actions. Why is this even an issue. Hell, I know enough about a map editor to fix this myself. Do I have to come over to Los Gatos myself and take care of this. ;)

2. Unorganized BO ability vendor. I waste a lot of time hovering each skill to see what it is.

3. Food for heals. Why? No really. When has anyone in the ST IP every pulled a fried catfish out of their quantum singularity to heal themselves during battle. Make food long time buffs like some other MMOs.

4. Escort stupid NPCs that constantly stand next to you getting shot. They either need to pick up a phaser and get behind the away team.

5. Barrack Obama. (Yea, he isn't in STO but he goes on any "most annoying" list)

Food are meant to be picked up to feed tribbles! They only have heal effect so that the tribbles can learn to do those when they are born.

In no particular order:


Automatically being transported into Deep Space Encounters while just trying to travel across the map.
People who can't be bothered to read the quest bestowal dialogue properly and then constantly spam zone chat with questions like "Where's Memory Alpha?".
Arrogant English speaking people moaning about people not using English in the chat channels - it's a global game with one server, people can speak whatever language they choose.
Gold sellers.
People with immersion breaking or offensive character/ship names that clearly go against Cryptic's naming policy - may you all be renamed ASAP.

[Archived Post]

1. Boffs puling whole rooms!

2. Turn rate of Galaxy Class and above cruisers and their lack of AoE aggro management.

3. Direction keys not working when targetting on ground missions

4. Ships getting stuck on asteroids and becoming untargettable but still firing back.

5. Starfleet bases being in every system in every empire (guess the Federation conquered the Alpha and Beta Quadrants and the other races just don't know it yet) No sense of borders or danger when in enemy space.

I can handle every annoying aspect of STO ... except Zone chat

to me, it seems 10x worse than than Trade chatter in Wow.

It is unbelievably stupid and thoughtless.

It must be a room filled with 10 year-olds trying to recover from ritalin addiction.

Thank you Cryptic for the Zone chat toggle button!!!

3. There is no Gamma Quadrant beyond the Celestial Temple.
4. The vendor selection of the promenade on DS9 leaves much to be desired.

Whoooooaaaaa there, lets not get silly now. That is a pretty big thing to say :D

1. Boff's aggroing an entire room with several Swordmasters in that seem to automatically attack me even though I havent even looked at them.

2. Joining fleet actions with 97 enemy ships waiting for you on the spawn point.

3. The 127,000,000 Batteries that have dropped for me.

4. Idiots spamming mines in fleet actions (Crystaline entity comes to mind, used to be a fun fight where people actually had to do things, now its a mine spamming fest where the fight last 3-5 secs).

5. No death penalty

[Archived Post]

1) Ships getting stuck on asteroids and becoming not targetable but still firing back.

2) Weapons/Abilities not firing after cool down only to go back on cool down.

3) Filter system (or lack of) on Bridge Trainer.

I am finding one thing highly annoying about STO

Players who think because I play Star Trek online that I play dress-up in a Klingon outfit in real life, speak klingon, and think I give a damn about "honor".

I like Klingons because I PVP, not because of maybe some deep psychological scars from not being picked first in kick ball, or not being what daddy wanted. I don't need to assert my manhood in a video game, it is asserted enough thanks. It's really on my nerves the people who can't separate fantasy from reality, fun is fun, but they need to get over it.

BOff pathing (excuse me first officer, would you care to join us on our mission, or would you rather stay here and hump this pillar?)

BOffs not firing their weapons! (or Exposing an enemy after I had already used my Exploit shot... brought on by their lack of firing!)

Trash drops (Oh boy, another Aux battery!)

Viral Matrix (rogue stun lock... in space!)

Targ Handlers (we need more targs! Scotty, beam down more targs!), Romulan Medics (it's ok, I can resurrect you while being shot in the face!), and those big Gorn guys who make you puke your guts up every 2 seconds. OK that's 3 things in 1, but we'll file them under "annoying mobs"

I qualify "annoying" as something that bugs me, but does not affect game play. So here are my top 5 annoyances that I'd like to see eventually addressed...

1- Beaming onto my bridge with weapon drawn.

2- Beaming into a non-hostile starbase with weapon drawn and seing all kinds of other people running around with their guns.

3- Not having a "usable" bridge chair. I should be able to just sit in it without having to jump up, turn, wiggle, backup, wiggle turn then emote. Sure the bridge serves no real purpose atm, but at least I would like to sit there quietly while I read information, my journal and plot character skills rather than just sit in Sector Space.

4- Blatantly stupid ship and character names.

5- "Diplomatic missions" that require me to diplomatically destroy over 16 BOPs and diplomatically kill over 100 Klingons.

Bonus ... Props to Quinto. I liked him in Star Trek and I like him in Heroes but his voice over is awful for the tutorial hologram.

Cheers!

3. Not being able to shoot fire from my hands. I thought this game was based on Champions?
But you can have mind bullets if you take the right traits.

4. Gold spammers. When will they learn that the future has no need of their material currency?
I'm more annoyed they actually call themselves gold sellers when they don't actually sell gold.

5. How do swordmasters get twice as much hp as me? And able to two shot my away team through their shields? How can I do that?
Eat your Wheaties.


Mine
1) Not being able to plot a course to something not on the current sector map.
2) People that want to take away my rainbow phasers.
3) Not being able to use Tribbles as anti-Klingon weapons.
4) Not being able to use the replicator while on starbase (don't they have one?)
5) Not being able to wear a Risa Bikini.

3) BOffs getting stuck on simple obstacles like crates in a hallway and you not finding out until you jump into a battle only to have three out of four several rooms behind you, and you get to fight ten NPCs with a single BOff for backup.

4) BATTERIES. Why are these the ONLY loot I come across? EVER?

5) Getting sucked into a deep space encounter, then ambushed at the warp-in by twenty angry Klingons so I can't warp back out in order to get to my actual destination.

Holy Annoyance batman! 7 pages of annoyed people..

STO must be the most annoying game ever designed..

Some more:

1: Deep Space Encounter AFK'ers

2: Fleet Encounter AFK'ers

3: Door blockers

4: Tier4 exploders

5: People spam-telling higher tiered players for group invite.

See? There are also some annoying things in STO that the players themselves make

[Archived Post]

1. Go find four things in this circle. What I can fly at beyond the speed of light, scan God knows what at some amazing distances, but I can’t have electronic support to find four energy emitting objects within 200 yards?

2. Being told what to do by my subordinates with zero choice! Who’s the Captain?

3. Either do a walkabout or kill everything.

4. Memory Alpha- Grrr, make crafting crafting not hide and go seek and seek and seek and seek and then guess quite a bit.

5. My keys losing their function in PVP ground combat. Geeze, they work ok for the first 30 seconds to one minute and then they just go to bizzaro world, I can’t turn around, just run sideways, then I can’t run forward just run sideways but of course its in any direction except the one I want.

And actually, beyond those five above, I am good and really REALLY enjoy the game regardless!

Exploiting an Exposed enemy with a multi-target exploit, just to have four more become exposed after you shoot

Boffs who charge at enemy groups you're trying hardly to avoid, a la Leeroy Jenkins.

Auxiliary Batteries droping from boss mobs.

Not being able to tell my BOFFs to holster their weapons.

This one.

And getting pulled into DSEs with no option to cancel or anything.

1. Pistol wielding enemies closing to point blank range and firing directly at your face.

3. The skill cap

4.Cant decide between a gorn or a klingon. They are both so cool! :P

5. Did I mention the skill cap


And an honorary mention. There are two npc's RIGHT in front of you when you first beam onto the station that say where sulu is. Use your eyballs! Stop asking! ;P

[Archived Post]

1. lack of offline info to direct newcomers to so that they can break the "where is Sulu" urge

2. People complaining about others star trek names when they called themselves capt kirk picard. I'm looking at you kirk pichard you cheesy douche!

3. Server down time :(

4. Batteries, by the ears of spock man! the only reason they have such a prolific drop rate is because not even the enemies will use them.

5. IV level drops that don't suit your ship and could never have been mounted on the ship you just killed. What, did I get this klingon on his way to market with all the useless drops he couldn't use?

not in order of priority or anything but...

1. Beaming in should always be with you and your officers with weapons away. Only by drawing it or by making your officers go into aggressive mode should they pull their iron.

2. Need more missons without blowing things up. I understand that there's a war on, but the Federation is basically causing the extermination of life wholesale in the quadrant.

3. Sector space needs to be visually tweaked. Or at least give us some options as to what is shown in sector space such as... removing the grid on the "floor" of the area. Remove the little white stands that the solar systems are standing on. Put in a visual effect of long streaming stars ahead and beside the ship so it actually looks like warp speed and not just full impulse.

4. Eliminate enemy contacts from pulling you into encounters so i can sit back and sip on my earl grey and enjoy the ride.

5. People who level up to Admiral in less than a week and complain about no end game less than a week after launch.

1. the color hue threads on the forums

Five more things that annoy me in game:

1. Batteries. Why do I need all these batteries? I don't use them!

2. Food. Why am I going through the pockets of dead Klingon's looking for my lunch?

3. Lack of space monsters. We need more space monsters. And not just the giant space crystal. I want like a Denebian Horror Squirrel that is like ten feet tall and shoots nuclear acorns at me.

4. I need a sword. A real sword.

Five more things that annoy me in game:

1. Batteries. Why do I need all these batteries? I don't use them!

2. Food. Why am I going through the pockets of dead Klingon's looking for my lunch?

3. Lack of space monsters. We need more space monsters. And not just the giant space crystal. I want like a Denebian Horror Squirrel that is like ten feet tall and shoots nuclear acorns at me.

4. I need a sword. A real sword.

5. I should be able to filter bad names out of my Star Trek. Have the names replaced by some generic stuff.

Batteries are awesome. I use all but engine batts (although i always sell some as i'm overloaded lol). Food is for your Tribble, not for you silly. But I agree with the rest, especially 3 and 5 :)

new one for my list, all the daisy dairies running around. All of the silicon valleys are ridiculous worsened only by the completely screwed up shape. Even the default bust size is a fair shot above the norm. Are our avatar's animie or comic book characters???

None of those cups can hold a candle to the default STO size. While deanna was endowed her's did not point outward at a 45 degree angle from her shoulders. As for #7 well...Klingon DNA wasn't the only part of them that some had augmented. :p

The most annoying thing for me is when I am booted out of the game without warning.

[Archived Post]

1. Klingons level so slowly.

2. Daily missions are daily. Personal annoyance, heh.

3. Science Team doesn't remove Viral Matrix like it should - either when used before or during. I've tested both.

4. Not enough Klingon players (because of #2, and no PvE content) meaning that its basically impossible to get into a PvP match above Lt. Commander.

5. No Fed vs Fed PvP (yet).

[Archived Post]

1. Oversized Rooms
2. Remans that spawn camp and spawn **** with Flagships, Battleships, and escort ships all at the same time and that all of them has the turn rate of a sport motorcylce.
3. No non-combat classes which are part of canon (traders, crafters, entertainers, relegious ).
4. People who cant read a map or read a mission log ingame.
5. Lack of decent social aspect of the game (chat, hubs, clothing, events)

Boffs not being able to Path properly in Fire Caves, they'll start to go in a direction as a group then if one of them touches the other stop dead, meaning you have to guide them all manually through that instance the majority of the time.

The amount of grief people shouted out before they fixed the borg war zone. People wanted you to not kill the repair hubs and wait for these Mysterious Repair Hulks that NOBODY EVER SAW, and if you shot at a repair hub which coincidentally adds a point to the mission goal you'd get alot of rather derogatory insults.
Funny thing is now that mission is fixed you do indeed shoot the repair hubs to finish the mission.

Players saying they know best and calling others noobs for having a different weapon loadout than their own "UBER SPEC".

High level players farming fleet action zones intended for lower players. Admittedly I have done this a few times but only in retaliation, I have a couple of lowbies that need gear and having seen Rear Admirals lord it over a fleet action, it was the only way i was getting something.

The amount of intolerance for people who don't speak English as their primary language. Gene Roddenberry would be turning in his grave sector chat is anything to go by. The amount of nastiness I've seen just because someone asked a question in their own native language astounded me. For a game based on Star Trek where Earth is peaceful and mankind works together there sure was a surprising amount of Xenophobia

[Archived Post]

1) in game trolls

2) PvP queue wait times...waited 2 hrs to fight a battle that was half way thru Feds 2/15 Klingons 12/15

3.1) incomplete mission objectives.

3.2) unclear mission briefs.

4) lack of detail in what items and powers do.

5) PvE respawn points guarded by enemies

[Archived Post]

1. Spawn camping NPCs in fleet actions. Why is this even an issue. Hell, I know enough about a map editor to fix this myself. Do I have to come over to Los Gatos myself and take care of this. ;)

2. Unorganized BO ability vendor. I waste a lot of time hovering each skill to see what it is.

3. Food for heals. Why? No really. When has anyone in the ST IP every pulled a fried catfish out of their quantum singularity to heal themselves during battle. Make food long time buffs like some other MMOs.

4. Escort stupid NPCs that constantly stand next to you getting shot. They either need to pick up a phaser and get behind the away team.

5. Barrack Obama. (Yea, he isn't in STO but he goes on any "most annoying" list)

1. Posters like this. They're infuriating both in the game and on the forums as they insist on trying to drag politics into everything. (And I'm always confused why a conservative would like Star Trek anyway. It's very nature is anathema to them. You know, what with its emphasis on civil rights and all that?)

2. The constant shouting in zone chat, whereever it may be. This is especially prevalant against the Crystalline Entity, where the appropriate tactic--destroy the shards with your weaponry--is shot down by so many people because they think that shooting the shards is the same as running into them with their ship or hitting them with mines, when it's not.

3. Broken quests. There are several quests at the moment that are broken that I would like to see fixed.

4. People who moan and whine about how this MMO is doomed and its a waste of money and Cryptic is going to fall. No. No it is not. Cryptic was handed an extremely short development time because they were the only ones who could take up the IP from Perpetual after Perpetual was revealed to be wasting their time and scamming for money. They agreed to honor the original release date which was set assuming the company developing the game would get five years to develop it. They had two. We should thank them, because otherwise we'd probably not have an STO at all. I

5. Lack of appropriate developer communication with the community. Despite my defense of them and the job they've done I am getting increasingly frustrated with their lack of real communication. They need to speak more to the community. I know they probably have their hands full, but surely they've got at least one representative who can spare a few minutes each day?

[Archived Post]

One rep for a few minutes? They need 3 paid reps to spend 8 hours a day each doing nothing but chatting on the forums.

I'd just like to point out how stupid this thread is. The majority of people having issues with gold spammers. Never bothered me and i think your all a bunch of dummies if this is your number 1 concern. Especially since you hit 'ignore' twice and your problem is solved.

Personally:
1. Bos getting stuck, falling through planet mesh, not following you properly
2. People: asking dumb questions, giving dumb answers, needing carebares, not reading quests, not looking at map... ie. 'where's sulu' Every ******n NPC will tell you where Sulu is... how dumb are you?
3. Not being able to fly 360 degrees in every axis
4. Report as Spam button (i've had to turn of zone chat as it seems I am considered 'SPAM'... again i refer to #2)
5. 8 year old out-dated engine.

Excellent point. I was one of those peopel constantly being yelled at to not shot the 'repair facilities' lol.. bunch of idiots if you ask me. Anyone could have told them that the mission wasn't working properly'. Mysterious hulks my ass LOL.

Don't blame players for this... blame cryptic.
1. Items aren't BoP
2. No end-game content for Admirals (boredom)
3. due to #2, creating alts and 'farming' for them

I always do this but i also always pick out one or two 'noobs' who I see are struggling and unload most of my gear on them (stuff that i won't be using on my alt).

Plasma Grenade DOT damage still ticking after respawning.

Camera "Autofollowing" your target.

Watching the hold timer go UP instead of down and essentially being held for 30 seconds until dead.

Ridiculously long "expose" state.

Damage being applied at the end of the shot, but cooldown starting at the beginning of the shot, so even if your phaser beam is pummeling their face, there is no damage if you're knocked back before it's over, but you're still in cooldown.

Shields disappearing on enemies.

The buggy bridge on the Assimilated Cruiser map.

Queue times

Being spawned into a PvP engagement 5v1 or 5v2 and getting rolled for half the battle until the game puts more in.

When steering with both mouse buttons, sometimes your ship will become locked into flying one direction until you press a directional key.

Special attacks auto-targeting turrets, generators, inanimate objects.

Space has limited movement- no loops, barrel rolls, etc.

No ability to sort by Name, Mk, or Price on the Exchange.

Being automatically pulled into deep space engagements... while in warp?

But all of the above- all of them pale in the comparison to the completely uncalled for and stupid "Space is like.. sooooooooooooo big" auto text for the Tricoder emote.
