Ask Cryptic (October 27, 2008)

10-27-2008, 12:04 PM

Ask Cryptic returns with answers on ship controls, melee weapons and Craig’s goat. Thanks very much to our development team for taking time out of their busy schedules to answer these!

Quote:

Your skills will determine how effective you are with melee weapons – a Federation character may be able to pick up a bat’leth and use it, but without training he or she will be less effective than a Klingon who has studied the use of the weapon. And certain martial arts may be limited by faction or race – not everyone can perform a Vulcan nerve pinch.

In the new Ask Cryptic we have been given some new information and one piece we've all been waiting for. The name of Craig's Goat - Snowflakes!

Also it appears there will be many many options on the custom species creator.

A few questions answered, yes. Nothing of interest to me, so no "WE" do not have an answer.

At least something was given though.

Yes, thanks Razor.

Each time i read the new game info i still need more, but hey something is better than nothing.

QNaz · 10-27-2008, 12:34 PM

Interesting. It looks like I'll have to include Federation folks into the first Bat'leth tournament. Heheh but sounds like the devs are gonna give us the upper hand....or at least we better.

I'm a bit disappointed in the choice of questions though. I remember a lot more in the original thread.

New Ask Crytic = Good times
No new gameplay vids/screens = Bad times

Awesome, my ship control question was answered! That was the main one I was hoping for.

SAMEET · 10-27-2008, 12:57 PM

Nothing really exciting there. I have no interest in the goat. Question could have been used for something relevant.

I really did not get anything out of this Ask Cryptic. Guess I will wait another month and a half for a new one.
