A bit annoying though when it becomes a pre-requisit for any kind of involvement, gamers did without it perfectly fine with in-game chat before discord became a thing. It's cool that others find it useful, I understand its benefits, but its not for me - which is fine.

    Nice Video MC Stu! \m/. I just wanted to let some people know just how important Fleetmarks can be as it's a 1:50 ratio as far as donations go.For example each fleetmark you donate,you get 50 Fleet Credits!.Everything else is a 1:1 ratio including Dilithium(which i think should be a 1:50 ratio considering a 20 hr refine rate,and is a very precious commodity needed for many things in the game).You get extra FC(Fleet Credits) when using Fleet Credit Bonus Pools.These will be especially handy when you need the extra FC for weaps,locators from the spire,and offset the 20%FC loss incurred during buying Doffs from starbase to fill projects as the fleet hits 75+(As opposed to not using them)

    I have an issue with this game. I'm not an english native person, I struggle to speak english, while I'm very comfortable with typing it. Entered some fleets and the requirement is to join Discord and talk to them. I avoid it, because it would be problematic for me, including my social anxiety freaking me out. If your fleet do not have this requirement, I wish I could participate in it.

      I got invites from random fleets which I accepted... but all on my 'new' characters I'm just grinding up to 65 before doing all the meta mission playthroughs.. I don't want to play them again for Mk Xii gear which is much cheaper to get to epic level for a cheapskate player like me.
      I don't feel I could contribute much even on my main character, I been playing for 3 months and I'm spending all my efforts into trying to rank all my reputations, I want to unlock everything even before I'm going for all the actual content. And only after that, I would feel like I 'need' a fleet so I can upgrade from there with fleet gear to which I can dedicate grinding for fleet marks instead of my rep system unlocks.
      But I'm only halfway through the video so maybe I will change my mind.. ?
      edit: ow, reason I wanted to comment was actually that the fleets some of my sub characters just added a new chatsource, but it's not really that active I suspect everyone is on discord. Which I don't run since I'm running on a potato from >10y ago so I'm already happy the game runs 'decently'. I used to be on teamspeak all the time when I was active in other mmo's like World Of Warships / Tanks, but since I quit those games I find it hard to find a good starting point in STO. It's like, there is so much different flavors of players, I'm enjoying watching spacebarbie video's but I also like the roleplaying aspect to an extent certainly in a universe as STO which is easier for me to 'get into' as with D&D which my son knows much more about. The only thing I decided from the start is that I'm NOT going for PVP since I can see that getting all the meta gear and traits would mean investing ( to much ) money into the game, I bought the Dahar Master package when I leveld my Kdf toon to 65 because I wanted to support the developers and I like the look of the Raptor and I got some more inventory space here and there but I'm not going to buy ships just for competitive meta traits.
      So, I would like a fleet, at a time at which I feel I can contribute to it. But I also admit I only played missions with my son a couple of times, all my other play time has been solo so maybe just the group PVE thing would be fun enough to participate.

      @@thomdeoliveira The crit stuff is the best available upgrade since they are drop in replacements, but as I said I'm not even on the level that I have access to all the weapon types and rep system consoles and I think having those is much more important at this stage since you need those for diversifying builds.
      My phaser build Matha runs advanced content no issues and I know I'm often messing up order of clickables and positioning so it's definitely not me being decent lol, it's got all mkXV gear ( though not everything epic yet ) and I got a decent holographic officer build to keep my firing modes up. But that's because phaser is the easiest to get a decent budget build for with space sets and weapon/console set's offering usable buffs in combination.
      I don't have a polaron build I like, and I want one for my T5-U Bugship.. it can run almost the same phaser setup as I have on the Matha, but that's not fun for me.
      Why would I need access to specific competitive gear when I haven't even been able to make multiple base weapon / platform builds? I have 5 toons at level 65 and a new one which I'm playing with my son at lvl23 but that are all different race/affiliation and specialization, the thing I'm missing is my Romulan dps build which will be the next toon..
      But on my main character I want to have multiple builds for ships I like, because that's also the character which has the most trait and gear unlocks to make that possible.
      The only real benefit at this stage of my character development would be the social side I guess. I must also admit I don't care for ground stuff, I never upgraded any ground gear I just don't feel that part of the game. Not that the fleet costume unlocks aren't something I would want access to at some time, I seen some video's with those and they do look good ( don't know the name but it's an armor + shield set which gives a really nice looking futuristic tailor unlock ).
      Anyway, maybe you feel different because you're developing your characters differently. Heck I'm not even saying 'm doing it the right way, I don't really know I just play for fun ;)

    My fleet is very active, is always maxed out at 500 members and all the Holdings are complete. The problem I see is that new members seem very reluctant to join in Fleet chat. We welcome them in a totally friendly way but I think it's cos they are overwhelmed with trying to level up on everything and just don't have the time to chat.

    I play this game because I want a Star Trek game, this -apart from being a mmo - is *the* best Star Trek game experience by lightyears. I just have fun with my captains, bridge officers and ships. I have *zero* interest in playing or talking with others while I do it - *especially* if that includes audio. I don't mind a chat or a team up now and then - but under no circumstance will I install discord or turn my game time into a job to grind for the collective.

    What I don't much care for is that it requires a group of at least 5 players to make a fleet (when it can be done). That was the reason for me making 2 other accounts... so I'd have at least 3 in a team then only have to find 2 other players to assist by joining the team. (I was actually going to make another two since I was not really find anyone, but a couple other players wanted to make a fleet also. - I had other characters on the accounts so I went with it. - I think that only 1 other of the players kept their fleet. The other I had a character in (Rangers of the Galaxy) quit his fleet within 2 days of not getting others to join so I dropped it and moved all my characters into my fleet. About 3 months ago someone requested to join and I approved, but that person left after 2 weeks.) Yes, my fleet consists only of my characters over 3 accounts. - I only really use my main though. (Very much like on DDO. I have my own guild there. - I do have one Ranger in another guild though. I'm surprised the leadership doesn't kick him out though since I typically only log into that toon once every couple months. - That's on the Thelanis server, btw.)

      Each fleet establishes its own settings. It's one way to determine whether a fleet is a good fit for you by checking their settings. Some fleets are run in a different language -- kind of hard to communicate. Some are more authoritarian than others. You kind of have to join a fleet to find out, but don't be afraid to leave to find a better fit for you.

    I am on the Xbox and have my own fleet which i am still building up and its currently on 34 which me and a friend have been doing most of the work which is very slow going and takes lots of stuff to get a fleet going so my contribution so far is 6000000 million fleet credits .
    but my problem is no one else is donating anything to the fleet so makes building this fleet hard work and i normally fill all jobs expect and try to put fleet marks in which you would of thought would be easy for anyone to donate to the fleet but they do not .
    I have even lifted the ranking prosses so when things come unlocked they can buy stuff .
    fleets are hard work and take a lot of commitment and not easy to run .

    I'm in probably the best Fleet in game, sadly it's Fed only since the game have faction restrictions, and I'm on PS4 by the way, so I don't even know how that works across platforms.
    The most annoying thing in Fleets now a days is the restrictions to buy from the fleet stores. Of course if someone wants to buy something from the store, they need the currency, and to get the currency they would need to help invest in the fleet, so the restrictions are garbage because they require a certain level to be able to "BUY" from the fleet, but of course there are no restrictions on investing in it, "conveniently", meaning people might do the most contributions to the fleet and never be able to buy from it without the required level, which is why I don't care for joining a fleet other than the one my fed characters are in.
    By the way, my comment may sound salty but it is in no way meant as a criticism of the video creator, just another point of view for the regulations people implement in their fleet now a days, that might make people feel like sheep for the leaders
