    Still no blockage for opening lockboxes for the Belgian & Dutch players, as both governments have concluded that lootboxes/lockboxes are gambling and are forbidden.

    The lockboxes in STO work differently than most other games, they are legal. Even in Belgium and the Netherlands... Stop bringing this up every day.

    Noone forces you to buy Lock Box Keys and open them. It's entirely up to you, actually. Also all 3 of the mentioned games have to be bought. Last time I checked, you dont have to spend anything on STO :P

    Will the 3 hour update be 3 hours solid, or might it be 3 hours or less?

    Stop making up stuff about my country. I am Dutch, accordingly live in the Netherlands, and I can assure you, STO lock boxes are completely legal here.

    Also, this is not the proper venue to be having this discussion.

    Why is there a patch today instead of Thursday? I am confused. As far as I know there is no major holiday on July 18th. So what gives?

    STO's Official Facebook Page post says....all platforms get maintenance today....only PC gets a patch. NO MAINTENANCE on THURSDAY for PC.

    So patch today in anticipation of something from the patch needing patched tomorrow?

    Just a thought but maybe the popper balloons are nocturnal.

    Probably patch today to (hopefully) ensure that there isn't a "skills invalid" problem for all of the Jem'Hadar when the recruitment event ends.
    This is an MMO, not a Star Trek episode simulator. That would make for a terrible game.

    Nice copy and paste as usual.

    Also, why is the Phoenix Box announcement in the patch notes and not it's own announcement? Don't want people to know it's active?

    You just needed to be patient, the Phoenix Box announcement has the info from the patch notes and now is present in the News section. Thanks.
