How about a Branflake DOFF that apologizes for downtime when you are hit with Viral Matrix or other System Offline situations?

Hello Captain:
We regret to inform you that SHIELDS ARE OFFLINE for the next 30 seconds. We regret any inconvenience this may cause. Our techs are working as hard as possible to restore service as soon as possible.
I'm kind of hoping the reward will be unique Warp/Singularity Cores which we can claim since they're the main new shiny being introduced. It could be the "Fuzzy-Wuzzy Core" where the item icon is a tiny hamster in a wheel...

That's a little much for an hour of playing. I'm sure an hour isn't worth more then a tribble. Hamsters aren't trekkish.
STO is about my Liberated Borg Federation Captain with his Breen 1st Officer, Jem'Hadar Tactical Officer, Liberated Borg Engineering Officer, Android Ops Officer, Photonic Science Officer, Gorn Science Officer, and Reman Medical Officer jumping into their Jem'Hadar Carrier and flying off to do missions for the new Romulan Empire. But for some players allowing a T5 Connie to be used breaks the canon in the game.
as we all know it has to be a tribble but can we please have some place for that tribble?inventories and banks are too small for the amount of pets and tribbles in this game :rolleyes:
No more freaking tribbles!!! Considering this is an open beta test weekend for a new faction I think it needs to be something different, something very uniquely Romulan. Maybe some time of Raptor (as in a bird) combat pet.

Pets are exactly the same problem as unique tribbles: no storage. Same trap.

yeah but at least it would be something different. Although a serious borg TRIBBLE kicking romulan assault rifle that doesn't have to be remodulated would be nice too. lol
What happened to the second round of closed beta invites, or did I miss the announcement? I wasn't expecting the special test weekend for the reward to happen until the weekend before LoR launches like you guys did with season 7.
Did you bump things up because of all the whiners not getting a beta invite?
I had a Romulan around level 26 and was awaiting the rest of the episodes to unlock, then you guys wiped tribble server lol.:D
Im a little dismayed that us closed beta testers get nothing unless we log in this weekend
But it is what it is and i will do as ive done throughout and log in and test for several hours as normal.
So Branflakes can we get a hint what the "reward" is or is it a wait and see thing
Getting into closed beta and getting to test the content early IS your reward. A quick perusal of the closed beta thread in the Fed News Network should tell you that there are (soon to be "were") plenty of players who wanted that invite (some, like me, who met the qualifications for the invite, but just lost out to the computer's random selection of 1000ish people on the qualified list). Getting to test early is a reward because you get to help make sure the content is good before everyone else sees it (and you get to play it first too!).
I will say this: if STO ties in a reward to closed beta testing Romulans/new KDF and doesn't give it to people who tested the new Fed stuff, I will be severely disappointed. People who love testing the new content (like me; been doing it since before STO went live) shouldn't be penalized for not getting lucky with an invite.

I was not sure were to post this.... but if its on the wrong sub-forum section Please feel free to move it to the correct one!!!
On with the topic... I been playing on the Tribble for quite a while now.. I love testing the update before hand to see what its like... And with LoR I'm out of the roof getting to play the Romulans... but I lately seen this problem in my HUD.. not sure if anyone else has it but on all the interaction windows likes ex. when your in a mission and you Bridge Officer contacts you and you read the message on the left.. its seems like the TOP and LEFT side of the Words are being eaten by the window... Here is a quick snap of what it looks...
Hope you guys can fix this problem as its not only on Rumulans but in all the factions KDF, FED. AND it only happens when I bring down the Interface Scale below 1 (default)....
So far that's all I've seen that is buggy or glitchy.... everything else is Super amazing!!!
Thank you Cryptic for the Close Beta invitation!!!
Keep up the great work Brandon!!!! :P
Again If this post is not in the correct place feel free to move it...
Let's hope poor little Tribble can handle the load.

This will be a nukara tribble with 1 mark every hour and something I will delete or stick in my bank until i delete it for it's space I'd rather just have a reman/romulan doff at least thats useful

This coming weekend is a Tribble Test Weekend, as well as the start of our Open Beta! Not only can you test out the new content releasing with the launch of Legacy of Romulus, but you can earn a special reward for doing so. Read more for full details.
i wish you can define when tomorrow is by the time and its conversion to other zones. im having to check the clock and i do not know if your time accuracy is 1 hour off.
i assume the patch is in 1 hour and 20 minutes from now, as it will be 12am on the west side.

We don't have an exact time yet, otherwise I would have included it :P Once it officially begins (Tribble is patched and available for Open Beta), I'll be sure to update the blog, update the OP, make a post to this thread, Tweet, Facebook and yodel about it from the top of our office building.

The patch will definitely not be in 1:20 from your post. As of the time of this post, it's 10:53PM in California. But they're presumably going to do the patch at some point during the day, while they're all at work.

i assumed it would of been the start of the 10th on your end, as it will be 8am here where i am. and if the update mentions 6am on your end that would be 2pm here so, we would miss half a day in europe :P.

Has there been a decision on what to do about character slots? Does everyone get a new romulan-only character slot?
Also, I currently am a silver member, although I have three characters because I created the third one while I had a gold membership for a month. Will I also get a new character slot?
I'm curious what the answers to these questions are on tribble for tomorrow, and also on holodeck once LoR goes live for real.

I confess I desperately want to try the new romulans

LTS, here since...when did this game launch again?

Well back to my alien rommy to do more testing.

This would be better than another tribble.

This will, of course, be a Nukara tribble we'll see a month after LoR goes live and maybe if we're lucky a rare/VR romulan and/or Reman doff I assume?
