    Notes look good, Cryptic does listen to us.

    Is the T5 Excelsior going to get the same treatment as the T3... as far as the BO and Console slot change?

    That was my thought as well. Of course since it is a test server why waste time to see if the update took or might crash the system before giving access back to us?

    To clarify:
    Is the console enabeling the Multi-Vector Advanced Escort to split apart a T5 console in this regard?
    Can it no longer be installed on the Read Admiral Advanced Escort (for the maybe more desirable BOFF slots depending on playstyle)?
    Or is this still possible?

    What happens to the console item if it is installed on the RA ship when F2P is patched in on Holodeck? (Possibly bugging into oblivion then?)

    All this asked in case the MVAE was bought with emblems and not unlocked in the C-Store.
    As it is no account unlock a possible bug (loosing the console item as in the scenario above e.g.) does not leave the option of dismissing the ship and claiming it again.

    Yeah ^^this^^, I use the MVAM Console on the RA Prometheus, since I prefer the BOff layout. What's gonna happen there?

    extra console slot, not consoles huh? i think you meant to say extra station slot, not consoles. but the patch notes says consoles. the retrofits have as many of their type of station powers as they can possibly have already, they couldn't push that any farther. i doubt these ships will have 5 of the same console type, that's a bit unprecedented. no, one of the consoles that they currently have 2 of will get a third, and if the galaxy retrofit doesn't get a 3rd tactical console like the negvar has, i will be VERY disappointed.

    these VA ship consoles couldn't be interchangeable, they are too unique to the ship that comes with them. plus, your already at level cap to get them, so you wouldn't be using lower tier ships at all.

    Prepare to be disappointed: the Galaxy retrofit got a third science console instead. :( The Defiant and Intrepid, however, ended up as predicted.

    I'm just hoping that they don't make the same mistake when the Galaxy-X goes back up. It virtually is an assault cruiser...it needs its third tactical console.

    Ok, so still no bridge officers for kdf toons, confirmed now that things are up again (thanks for all the dev responses to the threads on this issue) but on top of that we no longer have access to the EC vendors on Qo'noS. Thanks soooo much Cryptic for turning the kdf experience into the "most awesome faction ever".

    2 kicks to desktop in first ten minutes. great patch. Cure cubes healing like crazy, probably not that big of a deal with a solid well equipped group, but right now a pain.

    I wonder this too.

    So the Galaxy Retrofit now has 3x Sci Console Slots? Ok. What was predicted for the Defient and Intrepid, please? What did they get?

    I`m kinda ****ed, First, I had to pay a month subscription to get on the F2P test, now I had a little over 30,000 in refined delithium collected and after this patch suddenly I`m down to just above 10,000 what is up with that?!?

    I just tried getting onto Tribble and it says it's Closed for Maintenance

    So will this incoming maintenance we were just told about in game be a fix for the fact that when we rank up right now we get nothing in the way of dilithium, a discount token, or a free ship, at least for KDF hitting Commander?

    It's being taken back down for emergency maintenance. Not sure, but could be something to do with lots of people losing dilithium.

    They upgraded the healing? Why in the world would they do that for the normal difficulty level. I thought the change meant they were lowering the healing amounts, silly me. Normal difficulty was meant to be easily puggable last I knew.

    I had 26,000 or therabouts, a modest sum, but still, yeah.

    One thing I will say though: The prices are INSANE now on tribble. In a good way. MK XI Phaser arrays for 22,00 dilithium a pop? Yes please. Tons of doff assignments handing them out? Awesome. Small amounts, sure, but it all adds up, and all you have to do is sit on your ***.

    Problem is that the regen spheres heal themselves as well as the cube. A single ship can not overcome one regen spheres self healing and if too many assist the cube gets topped off and the regenners get shielded again.

    I think it`s very fitting as the Galaxy was always a big exploration ship. Now, who´s gonna tell us about the other two ? :D

    That's good to hear, I didn't get a chance to do much besides notice my refined diltihium went "poof" before the emergency maintenance message popped up.

    The shard was taken down due to a dilithium conversion error. We were converting all merit or honor you had into dilithium and it replaced it instead of adding to it. We shut down the shard to prevent any more people from being affected. For everyone that was effected, we're looking at our logs to see what we can do for you.

    I apologize for the inconvenience.

    All in all I am happy about the direction they are going with the new changes.

    Did anyone get a chance to see if the military tier in the DOff system got a fix?

    At least my KDF char now has Boffs with decent skills, it got very annoying to run around with crappy powers. :D

    And why exactly does my Marauding count say 0/-1 ? I had over 700 xp there. :(

    lol, i managed to get in one fed mirror just before it went out. it still gave the same amount of dilithium too, just ore as opposed to refined.

    Not a problem. I'd rather wait to have it fixed than not have it fixed at all.

    Mistakes are what this server is for Salami. Your people are looking into it and trying to fix the problem, that's all any of us can ask for. Nobody should be upset over the loss IMO since it's all eventually going to go poof when F2P goes live to Holodeck anyway. Thanks for keeping us informed though, It is greatly appreciated.
