    My AoD Fed level 65 character STILL cannot see the "Spectres" missions. This was as of yesterday. Waiting to see if it changes after the emergency maintenance today.

    We can only wait to see if they decided to combine the usual weekly maintenance patch with today's emergency down time.

    Today's emergency down time was because a lot of players were having problems accessing the servers. I was seeing posts about it start last night before I turned off the computer... I guess it got worse as the day progressed.

    where is the option to skip missions for these? I hit up lost dominion to open it up... you see 2nd wave or whatever the 1st mission is... you see the hail button on the screen/window... but no skip? I just want to get to the prison so I can get my purple doff.

    Just click on which ever one you want to do.... they have them in alphabetical order in the "Available" listing under the header of the main story, not in order of completion...they shouldn't be showing up in Episodes at all, any more.

    (BTW....the Episodes listing is where they have all that "hail" "skip" "replay" stuff..."Available" is whatever there is that can be done at the mo',)

    P.S. They are still trying to get the "Episodes" listing to allow all players to play any mission without being blocked. But they had to add more details so they reverted it. It seemed the new players were getting hails for ALL the missions once they got their Faction Mission Giver opened up.

    it's not there... only 1 mission listed under that female cpt npc... dont see of bajor or operation gamma... dont see any of it... only the very 1st possible mission to do the diplomatic conference at DS9. my other toons who has done this arc before they revamped the mission structure still sees all possible missions. this problem is also effecting other missions like the wasteland for nimbus 3... only seeing the 1st mission with no options to skip to fist full of gorn. or the Spectres/Dividian Arc etc...

    Yup...as far as Specters/Breen/Lost Dominion...depends on your faction if something shows up.
    Federation characters were having the most problems with those.

    Those three "story arcs" got removed from "Episodes" and moved to "Available" with the revamp that came in with Age of Discovery and, then locked to Level 65 in 1 November 2018 patch. Which did not fix it.

    They did another patch to "fix" mission journal stuff on 10 January 2019...that did not fix these three "story arcs", either. Then they had to take everything from that patch out because of the issue I mentioned before with new players and auto hail on missions.

    Then I got bored of waiting so....I have not looked on any patch since. LOL!

    +++++++++++++++++++

    Now, Nimbus/Wasteland stuff is a different problem all together. That got fixed, though.

    I would say DO the first mission...that should be a introductory mission where you talk to Horace Jones...
    and see if you get the rest of them "unlock" and show up for you.

    Although, a new character may still have to do a first time play through.


    OK, verified Nimbus/Wastelane was noted as fixed...so I was remembering correctly.

    It's funny you mention that. I had no trouble logging into STO until AFTER the emergency maintenance.

    Same here.
    Maybe this will help troubleshooting... SNR appeared on Argala and since then can't authenticate so can't relog.

    BTW if any of you know the official post for that authentication issue, please tell me as since I didn't know I posted in quite a lot of topics which seemed to be related.


    An answer here to where21 to not spam the topic more:
    Thanks :) it was already merged (with accidental double posting of me which I asked to delete), BTW, problem was solved for me late yesterday after many tries, two restart, and one successful force verify - unsure which one did it (proxy change didn't made a change at least on start/AFAIK) -I added the updated info there too by edit.

    LOL!

    Well....not going to try to figure out what is going on with the Server connecting, or rather, not connecting...on this thread. The rumor is: it is effecting a lot of games by PWE, not just STO.

    But there is like 2-3 other threads in Bug Reports about it, I think...plus a couple on General Discussion. You could try troubleshooting with those guys.

    I am off to do my e-mails. :)

    Did you check to see if Any of the other missions were showing up listed under whomever is the mission giver? I think on the Fed side it is under Franklin ("my Klingon is gonna punch him in the nose one day") Drake. Look for any of these:

    “Spectres” • “Skirmish” • “Spin the Wheel” • “What Lies Beneath” • “Everything Old is New” • “Night of the Comet”

    ++++++++++++++

    I was looking for a freebie transwarp to DS9 on my Ferengi today....for Omega Dailies.
    I noticed my Ferengi has "Lost Dominion" prompt under that Quinn guy. Hey, cool, right....I might be able to get those missions unlocked while I am on DS9 doing Omega.

    I queue up "Lost Dominion" intro mission...it tells me go to DS9. I get to DS9. Then it cleared off of my mission journal. It was like: OK....what the heck happened? LOL!

    I went and looked for Omegas....because I don't have much time in the mornings and the cat was howling incessantly.
    I will have to hunt to see where the mission prompts went later...or if they show up. Because they are not in the mission list.

    “Lost Dominion” • “Second Wave” • “Of Bajor” • “Operation Gamma” • “Facility 4028” • “Boldly They Rode”

    I am downloading Tribble today to see if anything is changing over there. Nothing is listed so....

    +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

    On Romulan (KDF Level 65)....I see "Cold War" and "Lost Dominion" intro missions. I see Replays for "Lost Dominion" missions she completed...nothing for the ones she did not complete. Hmmm....
    No intro mission for "Specters"....but all the Replays for it are listed individually under the header "Specters Mission Replay".

    On Ferengi (Federation Level 65)....I see the introductory missions for "Lost Dominion" and "Specters" but no "Cold War".
    Along with the Introductory mission for "Specters"....I see the Replays for individual missions under "Franklin Drake". Strange, not under a separate header "Specters Mission Replay".


    There doesn't see to be any uniformity in the Available tab between factions, yet. Or not sure if they are even trying to be consistent in the Available tab.

    I am going to call this as not being completed, yet. Will wait to check another time.

    Lost Dominion is the opening wrapper quest... you get to DS9 and mission autoclears.

    You can now do 2nd wave... either npc autohails you and tells ya about it... or you need to search thru available missions to find npc to start mission. for my JHD, no options to pass/skip mission to next one.

    none of these missions that have been moved can be skipped for my JHD who of course has never done any of these missions before. Once they play thru it... they show up at the top of the available list for replay.

    of my other toons who have done these missions, they are all listed for replay at the top of the available list.

    And there you are....while I was asking in that other thread.
    Thanks @tigeraries THAT stuff I did today was on Tribble.

    So, looks like we still have to wait for the final product to show up.

    On that character, absolutely nothing shows up under Drake's name. So far, he is the only affected.

    Yes. They are working on removing the blocks on the missions so we can play them in any order.
    So, you can follow the Episodes list...or hop around to your favorites, if you want. Or to get to a set.

    But there are more hoops to jump through than expected...especially after the last try, they figured out they have to change the way Mission giver prompts work.

    The new players would end up with ALL the missions popping up at the same time. For example: they unlocked the missions from Quinn, they got, like 10-15 mission prompts from everything Quinn gives out...etc.

    So, we just have to remain patient.

    probably not... since it's not "broken"

    this is the new reality.

    you need to be L65 to do these... for new toons... none of the missions can be skipped.

    you need to personally start up the starter mission. once you get to the npc/location it autoclears and you then get autohailed or you need to search out the mission. once you finish, you do the next one etc etc.

    it all works... it's just a pain due to the level restrictions and that you can not skip to the mission you want.

    It is the reality, for now. They are working to remove all the level requirement stuff and restrictions so we can play missions the way we want.

    Just not there, yet.

    I am just waiting dying to see the next version. Then we can give them our criticisms and concerns, hopefully in a constructive way.....because, yeah, getting painful and impatient to see it.

    This issue needs some attention. It's blocked some progression for delta recruits who didn't get these done before they were removed from the story progression.

    Honestly, I don't see why these missions were moved like this in the first place. Many of them have an impact on missions that are still there, at least as far as the story goes. This change makes no sense to me.
  • where2r1where2r1 Member Posts: 6,054 Arc User
    Well...I just leveled up a Romulan-KDF, a Discovery Federation, and a regular Federation character on Tribble.

    Discovery Federation and Romulan-KDF both look fine.
    Regular Federation is missing Cold War, still..... This is on Tribble.
    Which is the same thing I see on my Level 65 Ferengi on Holodeck.

    So, nothing news worthy over on the test server, either. Sorry...the wait continues.

    NOTE the update on TRIBBLE Server : 9 April 2019.

    Sounds a bit wonky but makes sense.

    You have to play ONE character on your Account to Level 65 (in other words: learn to play, first).
    Then the program should unlock all the missions for the other characters.
    Content:
    Mission journal update:
    If you have at least one level 65 character, all of your other characters should now be able to start any mission group they want - you can start the first mission in any section of the journal.
    This applies to 23c, Century Fed captains after they reach the 25th c. and to Jem'Hadar and Romulan captains after they choose an allegiance.
    25 c. Federation and Klingon captains gain this update immediately after the tutorial.

    NOTE: THIS IS INFO ABOUT WHAT I SAW ON TRIBBLE SERVERS!!!!

    Here is my post from the Tribble Patch Notes of 9 April 2019.....
    https://www.arcgames.com/en/forums/startrekonline/#/discussion/1248240/tribble-maintenance-and-release-notes-04-09-19

    SUMMARY: All tabs on Mission Journal is unlocked for all characters; provided you already have a character that is Level 65 (at least, that is "the deal"...I had a Level 12 character change to Level 65 when I first signed on Tribble).

    No changes to the AVAILABLE TAB listing. So, missions you were missing previously, will still be missing on your characters after the patch hits Holodeck today 11 April 2019.

    You will still have to get your low level characters to Level 65 in order to see Specters, Breen Invasion/Cold War, or Lost Dominion.

    Nimbus/Wasteland is missing on some Factions...even though I have characters in other Factions with it unlocked at Level 12.

    NOTE: THIS IS INFO ABOUT THE STUFF I SAW ON TRIBBLE SERVERS!!!
