    1 hour and 30 mins left XD

    With the current speed i doubt i will be done patching by then. I went to tribble on the test weekend, and after that had several aborted pre-patch tries. Now i started when bran told us to. The first 50% went wihtout downloading anything.. then it took like an hour from 50 to 79% and now it took another hour from 79% to 87%. Seems its getting slower VERY fast. 373 MB of that had to be downloaded for that so far.

    Can everybody still wait with their patch until i am done? Thanks. :D

    Wow. I knew it was going to be extensive, but didn't think it would be this extensive. I'm really looking forward to seeing the changes of gameplay, UI and the Tailor. Even if I do have to wait till the weekend before I can patch it up and play.

    Will this expansion finally allow me to delete my crystalline entity shard that had been clogging up my inventory. I so don't care about this expansion. I play and a Star Fleet Officer and only and Star Fleet Officer.

    I believe that one of the last couple of Tribble Patch Notes indicated that you WILL be able to.

    When I first saw that movie, I was sooo hoping that Donkey was going to break out and do this song after I heard his first pop.

    Sadly, he didn't.

    The 10GB patch took about 7 min for me to get and then it was another 5-6GB when I restarted the launcher.

    So, all set here!

    There is a correction I am making to the patch notes, under the "Systems" category.

    • Updated "Emergency Power" Bridge Officer Abilities:
      • The Emergency Power category of abilities has been tuned so that all four abilities are closer in utility to one another.
      • The duration of all Emergency Power buffs has been standardized at 30 seconds.
      • The shared cooldown between two Emergency Power-type abilities of the same type has been standardized at 30 seconds.
        • Example: Emergency Power to Shields I and Emergency Power to Shields II
      • Emergency Power to Engines:
        • Increased the Flight Speed bonus of Rank 2 and Rank 3 of this ability.
        • Increased the duration of the Flight Speed bonus from 5 seconds up to 30 seconds.
        • This ability now also gives a small flat added value to Turn Speed.
      • Emergency Power to Auxiliary:
        • Modified the tooltip to display the actual amount of Starship Stealth Detection given by this ability.
        • This ability now gives a skill bonus to Starship Particle Generators, Starship Graviton Generators, and Subspace Decompiler for 30 seconds when used.
        • The Stealth and Stealth Detection attributes of this power now last 30 seconds, up from 5 seconds.
      • Emergency Power to Weapons:
        • The Energy Weapon damage bonus of this power now lasts 30 seconds, up from 5 seconds.
      • Emergency Power to Shields:
        • There were no changes to this power.
    • Space - EPS Manifold Efficiency:
      • When you use Emergency Power to Auxiliary, Emergency Power to Engines, Emergency Power to Shields, or Emergency Power to Weapons, this trait causes all of your other power levels to gain a moderate subsystem boost. When you use any Battery, this trait causes all of your other power levels to gain a large subsystem boost

    Cheers,

    I'd wager it's because everyone knew this coming. When the servers crash or an emergency maintenance pops up it's usually the "OMFG I was in the middle of an ESTF where we were doing SUPERAMAZINGGOOD and I was right about to realize ALL OF MY DREAMS EVER when you BROKE IT. FU Craptic I haet u 4evars!!" posts that clog it up. In this case we all know the good stuff is coming, save for a few people who can't do timezones correctly lol.

    Don't forget the guy that thinks he has to pay for LoR and is just going to keep playing Episode 7.

    Same here unfortunately. Got 66% done in less than 10min without receiving anything, left my computer for 1 hour, now at 78%.
    At this rate the server will come back online and I will still be patching:

    Patched: 4812.6 MB / 6074 MB
    Received: 711.2 MB 78%

    Well, well, well... It would seem that, for me, in Romania, the 'terrible' launch of LoR will be on the 22nd May, and NOT on the 21st! Because 19:00 PM PDT means 02:00 AM GMT +3 here. :).

    who told you maintenance will be done at 19:00 PDT? will be over at 19:00 UTC, that mean GMT+3, 22:00 in Romania.

    does anyone use EptE? I try to minimize engine power to give most to shield, aux, and weapons based on the situation. What am I missing that I completely marginalize engine power in pvp and pve

    Done and done, took me about five minutes to patch due to testing last weekend :) just awaiting the servers to go back up.

    Having a party incidentally tonight for it. Beer, takeaway and Star Trek Online. I just hope I can buy my TOS Romulan costume straight away from the C-store.

    they need a handy dandy countdown for the maintenance to be over, like they did to announce the announcement for announcing when LoR's release was to be announced.

    Yes, Brandon has confirmed everyone gets 1 Free character slot (somewhere in the beginning of this thread).
    Hasn't this always been the case or am I getting something wrong?

    Not on Tribble, for a moment, the shared CD was 20s, as well as the powers' durations. Since their CDs were kept to 45s and different EPtX abilities' shared CDs at 30s, it created one enormous mess.

    Hopefully, such a mess won't happen again.
    TOIVA, Toi Vaxx, Toia Vix, Toveg, T'vritha, To Vrax: Bring in the Allegiance class.
    Toi'Va, Ti'vath, Toivia, Ty'Vris, Tia Vex, Toi'Virth: Add Tier 6 KDF Carrier and Raider.
    Tae'Va, T'Vaya, To'Var, Tevra, T'Vira, To'Vrak: Give us Asylums for Romulans.

    Don't make ARC mandatory! Keep it optional only!
