Account Name: dcaton
Character Names: Lance (Fed) and Notac (Klingon)
Your Current Rank: Admiral Fed - and I think captain for Klingon
Time Zone: Eastern
How did you get into Star Trek Online?
Since I love Sci fi movies and games I started hunting for a cool space game. I couldn't believe it when I found STO and that it had been out for a couple of years without me knowing.
How long have you been playing for?
Almost two years, I started on an under spec-ed laptop and had to take a break when Delta Rising wouldn't play on it.
Eventually got a better graphics card and been playing ever since.
What would be your best piece of advice to a new STO player?
Get through the missions to end game, get connected to a good fleet, ask lots of questions and most of all have fun and be yourself. Someone else's ship build make be awesome but might not fit your style of play.
What’s your favourite career type (Engineering, Science or Tactical)?
Never been anything more than Tactical.
What’s your favourite ship?
Advanced Escort Prometheus - but currently digging the Fleet Phantom Escort.
What’s your best and worst STO moment?
Best
Got a nice compliment from someone in my previous fleet for using some well placed Gravity wells and high dps with phaser cannons. It was a moment that I felt like I was finally getting the hang of things.
Worst
Entered into a Advanced or elite borg PVE with a friend who had no business being there. We were accompanied with a higher ranking fleet member but it was a blood bath. At some point we were almost getting spawn killed by the game. We put up a fight for a few minutes then realized it was hopeless.
What are some of your other interests?
Spending time with my wfie and kids...I waited a long time for them to come into my life so game time happens when they don't need my attention. I also work with my church teaching the teen class. Video, tech, and I am picking up some gardening this year.
What’s your favourite band?
Skillet, Audio Adrenaline, Thousand Foot Crutch
Anything else you want to say?
Happy to be in an active fleet again. I have spoken with more people in this fleet on my first night in than I did in the past two months with my old fleet.
