Rear Admiral Underwood and his ship, the U.S.S. Adelbert Ames NCC-103135-C (I've had three earlier ships by this name; a Miranda variant at Lieutenant during the beta, the same at Lieutenant during the live servers, and an Akira. The registry corresponds to October 31, 1835, General Ames' birthday.)

 :eek That's scary how much he looks like you, assuming that's you in your avatar pic.

I just realized how out of proportion my guy's head is to his arms, right now he looks pretty spider-like.  Time to change that...

Indeed, 'tis I..April 2006, I believe that pic was taken, at Buttonwillow Raceway in California. I've not changed much since then. Well, the hair's a lot shaggier (haven't had a haircut in the two years I've been in New England, lol), but beyond that...

And in my opinion, for the admirals, they need to bring in the TNG film admiral's uniforms. I like that outfit.

I feel sorry for you guys who are already at endgame, it must get pretty boring.  I'm still a Commander and I'm loving every bit of it.

If only I could figure out what causes the game to crash when I'm doing the ground battle missions. scan this rock/kill occasional enemies usually succeed when they're on the outside, but while in a starbase or building, game will crash within minutes. And it definitely shouldn't be overpowering my computer for pete's sake..  :bitch:

I keep thinking it is a gfx issue for you... try reducing your options just once...
Canon is what people argue exists on ships that don't exist.

So a bug that was in beta and no doubt reported wasn't fixed? That's hilarious.

if 1000s of others can play the game with no issue... it can't be the game alone...

Lionus you never did tell me your comp specs.

It's obviously an issue on the user's machine. They can't fix everything. Most likely drivers or a RAM overflow. The worst case would be to update and reinstall the game.

Eh.. STO is less RAM-hogging than Bridge Commander, despite of being newer game with higher base requirements. :lostit: And if I'm not the only one suffering from it, it's probably not in the computer only. Perhaps a fubared update or something from Cryptic?
