Is It Safe To Start a New Klingon (Tutorial Bugs Still?)

I have an empty fourth character slot and was thinking about creating another klingon to fill it, but with all the bugs surrounding the new beginning missions for klinks, I was wondering if it was too buggy or not to bother. Should I wait for more Season 4 bugs to get fixed?

    I´d go with yes, unfortunately. Until all the bugs are fixed, I would just wait. The kill this or that "dailys" have vanished from my mission log, my LG characters can´t get into BG Azlesa, the Zaria Breen Daily is broken and so on. :(

    I can't speak to anyone else's experience, but I had no problem running a new KDF character through the starter missions, if that's what you mean. I also parked a high-level char in the Warrior's Hall to see if new characters were having issues - I didn't see one that did (as evidenced by the fact that they could all leave the Hall after two fights).

    It is a bit annoying that the Foundry is down and that the FE's got pushed back from Lt 6 to Lt 10, though.

    Wait, for real? The season update/patch touted as "a great time to start a klingon character" went live with bugs that made starting a klingon character unplayable?

    That's ...

    wow.

    glad to see some new faces and players in the KDF forums. sorry it's about bugs, though.

    Keep in mind, when you do come across one, PLEASE take the time to report it- in game, or on the forums.

    Some times, you run across something that seems so obviously bugged you'd think it would be hard to miss and you might think to yourself "surely, the devs must know about this..." (guilty myself a couple times on this)

    But there's been bugs with pve, pvp, the foundry, that have all slipped through the cracks and remained in-game a while, on account of them not being reported. IT's best to take the initiative and speak up /report.

    And once again, welcome to the KDF :)

    The only bug I heard about was in the Warrior Hall, and I've heard conflicting reports. The story goes, it wasn't obvious that you had to talk to the contact one last time, and until you did you couldn't leave the Hall. But, again, I didn't experience that last night, and I didn't see people having trouble Sunday night either.

    There may also have been an issue with that "greeter" guy standing right outside the Hall, but as of last night you can bypass him completely.

    There's that, which did not cause a problem for my Captain level klink because I followed the advice on who to talk to first from the forum. What worried me though was the one topic where someone said they had no available missions at all for their new klink: http://forums.startrekonline.com/showthread.php?t=223554

    If that's not an issue, I can probably start a new one, making sure to take the necessary steps to avoid the Warriors' Hall bug. If not, it's not a big deal, as I still have to finish leveling my other klink & my fed alt anyway. That gives me plenty to do already.

    Thanks guys.

    Thanks, one question then: For my existing toon, I made sure to talk to that guy in the barracks standing in front of the door to the warriors' hall and get the mission from him first to avoid the bug. For new toons, I heard you start in the warriors' hall. In that case, do you speak to B'Elotja in there first to start the tutorial mission, and just ignore the guy in the barracks near that door? Or do you get another part of the mission from him, telling you to speak with that police chief woman sitting at the desk in the barracks?

    Never having really played a Klingon character before, I created one after S4 went live. Played the tutorials, the run around Qo'nos missions, played some PvEmissions, played some PvP missions, just made it to LtC, and have not encountered a single bug or problem, aside from the foundry being down.

    Just a comment on your title about a tutorial bug, what you are doing in first city is not the tutorial but an introduction to the Klingon fist city like you see on Fed side when you are running around the starbase after the fed tutorial.

    The Klingon tutorial is not in the game yet and that will be done later.

    Not sure what to make of that one, to be honest. It's been confirmed that some missions won't unlock until you complete the Qo'noS run-around missions. That includes sorties and exploration, and the featured episodes also require you to reach Lt 10 (dumb dumb DUMB move on Cryptic's part (IMHO)). I think you can still get Empire Defense and wrapper missions, though (not entirely sure).

    I did find out last night, however, that you can share missions with anyone at any level, so if you're stuck, you can always ask people to throw missions at you.

    Ok, thanks guys. It seems to look safe for the most part, so maybe I'll create another klink this weekend.
