May contain spoilers, stop reading now if you have not played through the new content!

I have just finished the Nimbus III set of missions and figured that now would be a good place to list what I have found troubles with so far.

1.) After aligning with a faction, your warbird takes on the warp trails of the faction they are with. Red for KDG, Blue for FED.

2.) In several missions with complex terrain, the away team has a tendency to get stuck either behind or INSIDE of various terrain features and will not return on an autospawn regardless of how far away you get from them. This happened for every mission segment of Nimbus adventure zone outside the walls making it extremely difficult to complete.

3.) During the mission Smash and Grab, when being transported between the freighters, your away team does not transport with you, causing you to be alone and needing to die to respawn to correct it.

4.) Several of the new specialty mission rewarded weapons and equipment items require better descriptions to clarify what it is that they do. Only a text issue, they all work as expected, but when attempting to choose a reward it is quite difficult as some items give vague descriptions of overall dps, recharge times, or function. I am referring specifically to the new torpedo launchers.

5.) The animation for "hailing" Law is a bit much... The guy is supposed to be in hiding and doesn't want people to know he's dealing with you... I would think a military officer would have more tact than screaming his name and fist pumping outside of his front door for all to see and hear!

6.) Some of the dialog, especially concerning the Hirogen and Nausicaans during the mission for hunting Hassan seems a bit childish and "weak" for those species. These are thugs and hunters that have the most "Gurumba" and guile out of all the species and shouldn't be approaching you as "Hey buddy... would you mind if we give you a hand? Would that be okay with you?" Not a direct quote, but I am trying not to spoil it more than I already have!

7.) The Tal Shiar dialog is a little weak also. These people were always well-spoken and cold, not whiney and emotional in the various series. Just a few tweaks to the dialog would help with the immersion and sense of impending doom that you should get when about to have to face them down.

8.) Finally, when returning to sector space, the ships are given a warp in animation like you just warped into a star system rather than the fade-in effects that we all know and love.

That's it for now! Most of them are all just minor inconveniences with the exception of the away team pathing. Thanks!

    I have noted several General Errors that Started around the Mission "Memory Lane"

    1. Weapons that are purchased for ground combat from the Flotilla (unsure if this is anywhere else), do Not seem to work when equipped. The graphic for them is in the character tray, but the graphic for them does not appear on the character nor to the seem to work when drawn (buttons appear to be active.

    2. Unable to change facing in ground combat. The camera for the character seems to pick a spot at random and gets stuck there. after this you are able to travel, but unable to rotate the character or associated crew. Also, this seems to affect ground side crew at random.

    3. Unable to equip other than basic uniform selections in the costuming section. I have managed something of a work around for this by hitting the randomizer button until it comes up with the uniform type in question, but this is only somewhat.

    4. for ship costuming, some of the colours do not appear to work. I'll inventory them when the server is back up

    hoping this was helpful.

    1. During an early voiceover, right after you get the ship IIRC, text says commander while actor speaks captain...

    2. "glitch" of leftmost (first) letter of every line in the dialog box is 1/4 "cut off" at 85% scaling. I think (didn't pay attention) that the glitched sides of the powers boxes in the toolbar is fixed.

    3. First runthrough of "crateris space" - after escorting shuttles to the nav point, I was within the circle of the nav point and the game "hang" - Echani battleship warps in, starts scan animation, but I couldn't get the text boxes to advance the chain. Exited sector - reentered immediately (did not log off/back in), made sure I was outside nav point circle when blasting the last warbird, text boxes fired appropriately when I entered the nav point's range...

    4. Text box for acquiring Tovan has "boilerplate" BOff acquisition text (including immediate ability to redo outfit) though I could not do so until I brought him to the flotilla's tailor as the modify box was greyed out (intentional at that point as I had not unlocked tailor, boilerplate could be confusing to newer players)...

    5. I might have missed this during echani battleship battle, wasn't that battle where we learned about "all power to shields"? I still think that that battle would be best for teaching power transferrals, all to shields for when in forward cone of enemy / needing to recharge shields quickly, all to weapons for quick damage...
    Detecting big-time "anti-old-school" bias here. NX? Lobi. TOS/TMP Connie? Super-promotion-box. (aka the two hardest ways to get ships) Excelsior & all 3 TNG "big hero" ships? C-Store. Please Equalize...

    One that I've found because I'm stuck in queuing still:

    The queuing numbers will randomly jump from 400 to 22,000. And then sometimes will crash my modem.

    Right now one issue I've noticed today is I'm in a planetary system after visiting a Starbase or am in Sector Space and I'm getting the sounds of a starbase still playing in the background.

    Here's an interesting little problem I'm currently having while testing the Legacy of Romulus expansion for Star Trek Online.

    The "Ship Tailor" won't let me customize my KDF ship until my KDF toon buys a STARFLEET ship from the C-Store, but KDF toons CAN'T make STARFLEET purchases in the C-Store.
    Hence, I cannot customize my ship at all, and I seem to be the only player having this problem, so far.
    Does ANYONE know a way around it?
    Does it only work with certain selections in the Ship Tailor?

    I have to head out to work, now.
    So I unfortunately do not have time to investigate it further, but it seems to be like this no matter what I pick in the Ship Tailor, so far.

    Here's a picture of the problem.
    I'd link to a video capture, but I can't find any video-capture software that will actually work correctly.
    So I do not have any.

    "Join Date: Jun 2012" Says Cryptic's "new" forum system. I've been here since a week before launch, but SOME stuff just didn't carry over through multiple system changes/updates. :rolleyes:

    1. Tovans GF keeps showing up as Mogi in some cut scenes and Valdore in others but is flying the opposite ship in space.

    2. Missions showing one set of mission rewards but granting other stuff.

    3. Radiant Plasma Torpedo is gone, please bring back our green Hargh'peng

    4. Valdore wings showing white texture until your practically right on top of her then the textures snap into existence, happens regardless of map so seems to be a problem with the model itself.

    5. Dhael still missing its hull texture.

    6. A lot of VO still seems to be missing.
