"Login failed for unknown reason" error
Missing additional character slot for current/ lapsed Gold Members
Slow patching in the launcher
A bug that involved Romulan Liberated Borg captains and their skills once they chose an ally
The devs can't even fix a simple xchange bug there's no way in hell they'll fix the invisa torps, even if they can, because that's how pwe works- zerg + lottery = money!
When in doubt, (hehe) c4!

Don't complain about heavy plasma torps being one shots, they are avoidable and destructible.
Do complain about Dontra's torpedo spread hitting you, a normal hit you might survive if you are buffed up and full shields, the critical (which obviously don't happen because the patch notes say so) will kill anything with over 140k in damage.
Do complain about the Neg's isometric charge which can one shot an entire group, not to mention insta-kill the freighters in Blockade.
I'd also complain about gates super beam which can take one full shield facing and bring me to 20% hull in a single shot, then it follows up with something else a second later and you are dead, you can't react to that.

We aren't complaing about heavies- its the normal unbuffed ones doin well and away 100k b4 resists that are worth complaining about. No buff can save you. No maneuvre. No weapon. Its the wrath of gozer! Mwhahahaha!

Sometimes being one shot by borg is canon, have you seen any star trek?
This x 1000
The borg can wipe out entire fleets with a single cube. Cryptic is trying to recreate this without it being entirely impossible to stop them.
Just be thankful they never added re-modulation to space fighting against the borg, which would be canon as well.
Besides, think about this for a moment. 95k for a heavy 2 plasma torpedo.
Striking a ship with an average of 30% hull kinetic resist (If you're smart to add resistance consoles for stfs). Plus shields reducing the effectiveness of kinetic attacks instantly significantly lowers the overall damage that torpedo can do. If they lowered it too much, it wouldn't be a high end threat, it would be a tickle that escorts would laugh off and nobody would think twice about taking the hit.
[Unrepentant] Lapo@overlapo: the problem with space STF
is that you can't properly teabag your defeated opponent
Unrepentant is not a fleet or a group of friends, it's a way of life.

Actually... I am in favor of giving the borg more teeth...; but not necessarily one-shot kills... although i don't mind them... they need to have more sustained damage rather than spike damage in their general weaponry... shielding needs buffed, as does the hull.
I also think bringing back some of the old style STF elements (maybe at the Elite Level), such Sphere guardians with every probe spawn at Khito... etc...

The Borg aren't even able to shoot down one Delta Flyer and get defeated by one little ship that is thousands of light-years away from home with no supply or support.
Your turn.
But I have to say: As a tank with decent equip, I never get one shotted (apart from the charged of the Negh'Var and heavy plasma torpedos that I overlooked that is). The problem is, that there are hardly any tanks around. When I play my other toon (Klingon tac in a BoP) I get shot down all the time, because I nearly always get the aggro.
I'm still getting one hit crits in all three STFs and it doesn't matter if i'm in an Armitage, Atrox, Oddyessy, or an MVAM. One Shot and BAM, I'm dead.
