    Pics or it didn't happen.

    But seriously. I went onto Tribble last night and wow. It looks freaking awesome. Still not sure about the way the whole traits system works, gonna need to look into that some more.

    Romulans are still invite only?? Look folks. I came here to test.. not flutter my eyes or go goo gah over everything. i want to know that my romulan character when i create her next week is going to work at the best possible as she can. Wipe a character i create today, i dont care, but I just cant fathom how i'm supposed to test something ( even in open beta ) that i have no access too..

    Interface: TNG color scheme appears washed out and flat.

    Ship customization: Previously purchased Z-Store ships ( Armitage and Thunderchild ) not being recognized or listed in any section of the customization window.

    Tailor: Previous costume purchases not being recognized by tailoring window.

    Opening screen initially displays character and crew with an image of the ships fighter or shuttle above them. Image changes to ship after selecting second character and reverting back

    Open Beta has not started yet. There will be an announcement in the Tribbles forum when they have the patch ready and after that you will be able to make your Romulan.

    So like when does this open beta start? Because I patched but still unable to play a romulan, so what gives?

    If you'd go back and read the actual annouciment, the LOR beta only opens to the public AFTER tribble get's a patch, which hasn't happened yet. Come back in about 6 or 7 hours and you'd have all the green blooded goodness you could want...
    Everywhere I look, people are screaming about how bad Cryptic is.
    What's my position?
    That people should know what they're screaming about!

    I want open beta to open up, that way the rest of my fleet can enjoy what I have been experiencing in closed beta!

    I have to say, I am fairly new to STO, I do have a 50 Sci captain. But tbh even i have read the announcement - and it doesn't give a specified time for testing.

    Idm tbh, it will feel so rewarding to have a look at the romulans before the 21st, and I'll give any feedback I can :)

    p.s kamenriderzero1, i love the signature, such a typical RNG outcome :)

    that is because there isn't really a specific time. Any time between when Tribble is patched and 10am PDT on Monday is considered part of the Test Weekend. And if you are on for at least an hour during that time, you will get your reward.

    No mention of 10 PST today, only of a patch, which if you look in the patch notes has not happened yet.

    go back and do some real reading please. it Never said what time Open beta would launch. it only said the Tribble Test Weekend would END at 10AM PDT on MONDAY.

    Chances are that patch is from the last couple days; still no notes for today.

    Hi Captains,

    As a reminder, the announcement states that the Open Beta (i.e. Romulan and Klingon Gameplay unlocked) and Tribble Test Weekend begins once Tribble is updated today -- we are still a couple to a few hours away from this, at minimum. Once it's updated and available, we'll be sure to update the original announcement and this forum post.

    Thanks for your patience, and we can't wait to see you on Tribble later today!

    Cheers,

    Brandon =/\=

    Yeah that is what I'm saying. I know there isn't a time yet.

    What I'm getting at is I bothered to read the announcement, where as a lot of people see ''shiny'' and seem to overlook the contents of what has been said :)

    Sure he screwed up the time but don't get all upity at people for being EXCITED about these changes.

    If people are upset it isn't up yet I see that as a GOOD thing. It means the stuff coming actually matters to them.

    Its going to be patched, when its going to be patched. I was hoping to patch before I went to work, oh well, I can patch when I come home.

    What's the reward? A Demon-Class Tribble that craps a Nukara Mark every hour?

    Reading comprehension is important. It keeps people from making rash judgments.. and anger.

    C-Store purchases have never carried over into Tribble, only what you buy on Tribble or copy over on your toons. As for the TNG theme being flat, have you even watched an episode of TNG lately? The style was very flat there too, I am not a fan of LCARS in TNG, but I like the way it looks in game. And I have the same bug that if my shuttle/fighter is listed before my ship in the character select screen it has the shuttle/fighter.

    Sounds like it.

    I'll get my romulan tactical to level 50 from 49 and test end game content in a mogai refit!
    Let us wear Swimsuits on Foundry maps or bridges please! I would pay zen for that.

    Gods and goddesses. Does no one read the fine print? Do they get tunnel vision and go "it's 10am, why isn't it patched yet?"

    Eesh. I thought MY eyes were bad.

    Yeah I am not following. Could all announcements be done as YouTube videos with puppets for a clearer message?

    Also, how much is the expansion?
    Should I start posting again after all this time?
