O_O Wow! I never thought I would see the day when OP was so taken with a game that he would make such an investment! I have no idea what the "red matter capacitor" does or why it is an advantage, though some STO veterans seem not to want to play without one; so it's hard to say whether it is worth the search, let alone the cash. As you said it is a "free" game (though I have invested 300euro/year for many years in CF, another free game). I had done a calculation of the relative a la carte costs…

(Quote)Yes, but there are players on the STO forums who are satisfied that a satisfactory build can be done by other means, and unless you can get one of the UK Gold Editions, you're looking at $100+ US for the remaining Collectors' Editions. Pretty steep for a "free-to-play" game (yes, most veterans admit that it's also "pay-to-win").

After some more searching, I found there are a few Gold Editions still available in the UK, and more than 20 Collectors' Editions in the US (most of these are offered for $150 US!). So if you've just GOT to have it, they will likely be around for a bit longer; start saving today! Meanwhile, I added up the a la carte C-store costs of the stuff OP listed, and it comes to ~$103 US (not even counting the RMC), so it's not really such a bad deal @ $100. EDIT: With a new wave of medical debt coming a…

If only ARC/Cryptic were not so inept, I might have got my red matter capacitor! I got the Collector's Edition, went to the activation page (based on a link posted by another player - https://my.perfectworld.com/redeemkey/sto), entered my code. This began an unhappy re-route chain that has resulted in ZERO benefits! I was sent to a different activation page, where I entered my code sucessfully, but was asked for my "computer name" (what I call my comp). I entered this, and checked all the availa…

@OP: Thanks for the tip; I tried another path to the correct activation page (from inside the game) and now the legacy unlocks are all there! So the benefits (with Zen values - I'll verify later today): (2) extra rows of storage slots on account bank (2000 zen)(2) inventory storage expansions per character (2400 - 3 char's)(1) extra character slot (425)(1) month Gold Zen allotment (500)(4) extra BOff slots per character (3000? -3 char's)(2) uniform sets (850 - still need to confirm this)(1) Red…
