    Captains can now access and begin playing the first episode in any story arc.

    Hmmmm....they just said TRIBBLE it and removed all restrictions to all mission???? Whooo Hooo! LOL!

    I should probably look to see if that change is on Tribble....but having mucho fun on WW...probably wait till it hits Holodeck. LOL!

    Some of these are actually pretty funny
    Resolved an issue that prevented minimum height characters from be able to a "Scan Continuum" and "Activate transporter" Console in the mission, “Stormbound”

    or... interesting in that I don't see why anyone would be interested in it :p
    There is now no limit to the number of flashlights you can own, but you can only have one equipped at a time during Starbase Incursion TFO.

    Now that that's made clear... on to the next issue: when are playable Voth coming, and where's are my T7 Vesta and C-store purchasable real life shuttle? :)

    Updated ground weapons to list knockback distances in meters instead of feet

    Aww... but I liked that distances were expressed in banana's... I mean, feet. ;)
    Resolved an issue that was causing the Universal Endeavor, “Participate in a PvP match” to not respect losing in addition to a victory.

    More seriously: glad to see this being changed.

    Hey... all 3 of my "mini" toons really appreciate not having to hop up onto the console (or jump into the air while simultaneously pressing the F key) :smile:

    I am thankful for the type 7 shuttle getting fixed, I just hope I still own it.

    I wish we could get a claim all button for admiralty.

    Looks like I'll be hitting the TZ Battlezone tomorrow, been a long time since I have been there.

    Thanks for all the fixes, they're greatly appreciated.
    Insert witty signature line here.

    Would be nice, there's a lot of promotional stuff that was lost in an event horizon.....

    *Hopes for fix for accolades for Discovery captains in the ship rescue mission (the first 2410 mission)*

    Every time a new Federation faction comes along (i.e. Star Fleet, Delta Recruit, Agents of Yesteryear, Age of Discovery), this bug pops up... :worried:

    Still no fix for the Jem Hadar not able to wear the knitted winter hat? My winter jemmie has a serious lack of sillyness! :)
    We want to keep the foundry.
  • sukhothaisukhothai Member Posts: 276 Arc User
    So we will not be able to replay Atlai, Vastam Peaks, Epohh Fields, Hwael Ruins or Paehhos Crater?

    I won't get an official answer to this question but.... The landing page is it being addressed where its appearing on every login and character change or is it appearing on every login and character change now the norm ?

    Hello rubber banding my old friend, time to bounce around the battlezone again, where are all my bug reports going?, out of love with this game I am falling, As Cryptic fail to acknowledge a problem exists, Shakes an angry fist, And from Support all I'm hearing are the sounds of silence.
  • casualstocasualsto Member Posts: 672 Arc User
    That's a large bunch of fixes. Give these men and women at work a round of applause.
  • postagepaidpostagepaid Member Posts: 2,899 Arc User
    Fixed for midgets hopefully means that its also sorted for normal (default height) characters. Maybe in future they'll make sure maps are tested and suitable for how the game plays before pushing them live.

    Timer in the BZ is a step in the right direction but if the spawns are still set with the arrogant assumption the zone is full and clumped then jury's out on how much better it'll be.

    The lander will continue to appear every logout and character swap because it got attached to that menu. Using a keybind to hit the selection screen is the only way to avoid it.

    I once made a yoda character for fun for a short time, LOL He couldnt activate any of the consoles, I had to make a combat yoda for missions that was min 5 ft high.

    That is a pretty lengthy & impressive list of "Resolved"s. Well done, Cryptic. Looks like a nice job upon cleaning-up a lot of back-burner stuff.

    Cover Shields now only have a 60 second duration.

    That's pretty awesome for new players. Say your bridge officer deploys cover shield blocking the doorway of an early ground mission.

    How's about returning to the old setup where we can see how big the patch is instead of the vague "baby's first launcher" approach?

    The Doomsday Device has received brand new cutscenes and animations!

    That exclamation mark makes me think that this is huge. Any chance we can get a cap or a short vid showing this change? :)
    If anyone plays this in the very near future, post a cap, please.

    YES - THANK YOU!

    Improved rep ui and access to all mission are really the most amazing changes in a while!
    With 12 reps to fill you had 8 clicks each so 96 clicks to start all the daily rep missions. its was a truly annoying experience so far.
