List me as one of those thankful for the Tal Shiar redeployment in the Mountain Pass - hopefully that means that the Mountain Pass area will actually be worth visiting now during the Vastam Peaks daily and Red Alert instead of just going circles around the Peaks so we aren't risking two or three squads of Tal Shiar at a time ganging up on our little two-person away teams.
I hope I don't sound like a whiner asking this, but does this mean that you'll also be looking into some of the other problems found on New Romulus, like say... the 'River Troll' and 'Brave New Waterfall' accolades being almost impossible to get?
Don't get me wrong, I like New Romulus - I feel that it's the epitome of what an adventure map should be, not just go in and wander around shooting enemy after enemy and never really feeling like you've accomplished anything. I'm thinking it's the Red Alerts provide a sense of urgency and import, you're walking around and suddenly there's a situation breaking out, you need to get there and solve it, do something.
Or maybe it's the Epohhs.
Yeah, I think it's the Epohhs.

I know its not a big thing at all, just kind of wondering if the visuals for the omega autocarbine, all the marks, were going to be fixed at some point. Kind of wierd that its the only gun that doesnt show up on your back.

Wake@phoenixrw, Supreme Chancellor of Roughneck Alpha Fleet.
do you guys have any plans to introduce a fleet odey at some point in time?
i ask because when a fleet excelsior flies up next to me with higher hull and shields its relay annoying considering they are 1/4 the size and about 200 years older. ''The pinicale of star fleet design'' the flagship... shouldn't it be more than a whale flopping around with less capability than a 300 year old star ship refit for fleet use?
As for the programming , I think Cryptic writing in the patch notes : "General software (or hardware) updates" is something that is both short but informative enough.
As for a night shift team... I would rather have more modellers and texturers to make new ships, outfits , and so on, then just to have maintenance at a slightly less annoying time.
But I doubt PWE would spend money on either.
Let us wear Swimsuits on Foundry maps or bridges please! I would pay zen for that.

Size doesn't matter :P... Well, you posted in the wrong sub-forum, if you don't want your comment to be lost, then open a Thread in the "General Community Feedback"-forum.

If Star Trek Online was an Open-Source (GPL) Game, we would have a low-grind fork.
Its a shame that all the servers go down all at once, surelly Cryptic doesn't have all the servers in one place? If they dont and have say 3 groups of servers ie.. US, Europe and Far East I cant understand why they cant bring it down one at a time during night hours?
Moot point even if they did. It's all part of the same shard (or "server") and yes, most of the server computers are located in a DC in the East coast if I remember right.
Cryptic/PWE do have a network team on call 24/7/365 But if something blows up with the patch it's not like said network team has the ability to alter the code last moment :P

Not if your retired... or disabled.. or on a day off... or ...
I would imagine the population of retired, disabled, day off, etc would be pretty small for the whole game population. The good of the many etc etc.
Not that I don't feel your pain, commonly I report to work in the afternoon on Thursdays (US) and this often precludes me from playing during my off time. So I catch up on the forums, ensure I have clean underwear for the following week, and make the house look less like a targ runs the place. I am in that small number of people impacted by their routine, but in the end it is just how it has to be.
I just hope for the the 3rd birthday they "reinstate" some of the launch bugs for nastalgia overa weekend. I want to fly my reliant around on the starbase and walk my captain through sector space again. Just for kicks and screenshots. Call it a Q thing or a spatial distortion.

Sorry but 2PM isn't exactly "Prime Time" in Europe either ... most Europeans have to work at that time ... people in Siberia or Kazakhstan are the real victims here :P
Agree...How come 2pm is EU primetime.....I'm sure Europeans do work as Americans do
2pm should be primetime but for work not for playing STO...unless you do work for Cryptic....
You guys get a 4 day workweek...enjoy but the rest of the world still have to pay subs/bills including DEVS :cool:
The team just got back into the swing of things on Monday, so it's understandable since this just went to Tribble yesterday
Maintenance times vary depending on what needs to be completed.
The team is investigating many of the Foundry issues that have been posted about in the Foundry Bugs forum. We're hoping to have many of them resolved very soon.
Its a shame that all the servers go down all at once, surely Cryptic doesn't have all the servers in one place? If they don't and have say 3 groups of servers ie.. US, Europe and Far East I cant understand why they cant bring it down one at a time during night hours?

Your statement is only partly true.
There are 3 versions of the Excelsior and 2 versions of the Odyssey:

There are 3 versions of the Excelsior and 2 versions of the Odyssey:
T3 Excelsior: 26000 hull, 100% shields
T5 Excelsior Retrofit: 39000 hull, 100% shields
T5 Fleet Excelsior Retrofit: 42900 hull, 110% shields
(Free & C-Store) Odyssey: 42000 hull, 115% shields
So yes, the Fleet Excelsior has slightly more hull (2.1%) but the Odyssey has more shields (4.6%). Obviously there are other factors to consider.
