That is a load of crap! the Lance at its current rating is not a good "5th" frontal weapon because its wasteful. It uses a lot of power with little punch. Do you get what I'm saying.? So what, the ship is a cruiser. That should not marginalize its weapon's power. I am a Tac Officer, and have my Dreadnaught to top specs as I can get it. I use the Lance as a first strike weapon but after firing it, I'm drained down to 50% or less power to weapons, and I don't have anything left to do damage to target's, exposed hull or weakened shields. It is a shame that my heavy cannons do more damage to shields and hull, with less power, then my Lance does with full boosted power. Fix it! Don't bring a teaser weapon in if you don't make it work like you advertised. Right now, its just a power wasting flash of light.

Look, man I'm here for the long haul. People are leaving PVP because my complaint is valid. People are tired of getting slaughtered like cattle just because they can't communicate due to the lack of free vioce chat. If you are fixing that that great, so when do i try out the voice thing? How does it work? Do i just put on a headset and start talking to teammates? Another reason people are ticked off about PVP is that we are tired of the same old arena style battles. We are tired of having those warp gates behind us telling the opposing team where we spawn in at. We want PVP to be more flexible like Star Wars Galaxy and easy to challange Klingons, like on WOW, minus losing your gear.

Per the latest Engineering Report (http://forums.startrekonline.com/sho...ighlight=vivox) the voice chat will be Vivox. Here is their website: http://www.vivox.com/

I agree that there needs to be more styles and maps for PvP. That's a universal issue. The slaughtering issue is also a problem, I experience it on the ground quite a bit. My opinion is that getting slaughtered is better than waiting in a queue with 2 other people, but it does get old. There are 2 options: Cryptic can create a teams-only PvP queue system to add (given their lack of PvP development, unlikely) or those that get slaughtered by premades can team up. That's why fleets and channels like OrganizedPvP exist.

Any plans on fixing the problem of the PvP community disappearing?

need new playable races added other the defaults. this would be really awesome but if not still love playing the game anyways

In the future, is there a possibility of seeing more customization options for sets for like the Borg set?
