Do not waste your materials and purchase this item as it will not show up in the store...a few others have now reported the same thing that happened to me which is a blank window.

    Ah, glad it's not just me. It's the only Store project I've done so I just get a blank window with 'Exit'.

    Seeing things like this and the Romulan BOFF not working right makes me think that there are a ton of things they roll out and probably think "We will eventually fix it" and it never gets done. Same thing with the exchange. I mean seriously. Can we not get a couple of people to just bear down for a week or two and get it working correctly with all viable options? What am I paying you for besides sitting on the game and getting angry that things aren't working right.
    No, I am not who you think I am. I am someone different. I am instead a banana.

    i think they actually didn't make it and like u said...they'd get around to it before anybody got to that level.

    After seeing this for almost three years with every update, I doubt they will start anytime soon ;)

    I hate to say it, but Cryptic is absolutely horrendous when it comes to fixes.

    Just look at the recent WW PvP race, where they took too long to implement a fix and now there is no more point to it. Or the still bugged Season 6 content <cough> cadet inspection <cough>. And there is no sign of them fixing those major UI Bugs that came with Season 7.....

    Yes, but its Mk XII. I am hoping it actually replaces your arm with a borg arm instead of being a minigun. I would even accept a borg arm with handles and trigger.

    I'll cut to the chase. I don't believe you. Put up some pics with the "store" window and the borg XII weapons showing.

    Wouldn't be the first time that something was available to only some players and not to others due to some annoying bug.

    Considering how long they originally planned for all these projects to take, I can certainly believe they were going to put off the fixes for a month or two. Tier 5 alone will take minimum of 17 days all on its own.

    So you have the Borg Prosthetic - Tactical Drone Mk XI not the Mk XII?

    Seems I fixed my issue of the MKXII not showing up. I had to do the MKXI store unlock, now both are there. Strange, but there you go.

    I'll try it, because I know the dev's aren't going to do anything about it.

    Talking about Tier 4..XII prothestic arm. If you have not done that project, then you don't know what I'm talking about. Hopefully it wont happen to you.

    I did the Mk XI project first, then the Mk XII and I have them unlocked. Turns out the prosthetic arms share the same store tab, so yes you need Mk XI unlocked for the window to appear. Weird...

    Apparently the Anti-Borg Consumables work like that too. Unlocked the ones at Tier 4, but no tab. Just the Mk XII weapons. So apparently it is set up so that you need to unlock the first version to see the better ones. And I was hoping to avoid those projects.

    I unlocked Tier 4 last night and managed to open the MK12 Rifles without buying the MK X or the MK XI and still got the store. The consumables, wasn't paying attention and see there was 2 tiers. (BTW, what's with the consumables asking for Dilithium when some of that stuff is free drops in the missions themselves? :confused:)


    BTW, the Omega Reputation Shield Buff and the Omega Torpedo, well worth it! :D

    And going to be nerfed eventually. There is dev confirmation on that.

    Dont know what you guys talking about...I saw people already playing with it...most recently at Mine trap. The guy who was using did not have any problem with it. Did you ever complete the project? or could be an individual glitch rather than a massive panic error. Looks like a cool weapon but just stating what I saw;)

    It looks like the version of Tier 2 is required to unlock the tab while the version at Tier 4 only adds items to store. People were going for the Tier 4 version and bypassing the Tier 2 version which is apparently necessary to get the Tier 4 items.
