    first I want to thank you all at STO for everything you do great job on LOR and the game in general, I got to play for awhile after the first maint. cycle until the emergency maint. and I love it you all did great I have no issues with the game, look forward to getting back in game in about an hour or so. The only thing I would like to see is the ships in the boxes be available in the c store because for people like me I have opened about 200 different boxes and get goodies but never get the ships lol luck of the draw and thanks again for all you do for us and yes even the people that just complain because theycan even though they have no reason to it is the best game out there and they can play for free

    This is normal. I expected some problems (expansion or not) after this big patch this morning. So, hopefully, tech support will fix the problems and everyone can go and play, soon. :cool:

    What do people think of the idea of revamping the dabo / latinum system to where the trade-ins could be say lock box keys? make it so people want to play dabo. maybe have it so you could bet lock box keys to win more? just curious to see if anyone has any comments / ideas about this.

    I really like that idea! It would give us a reason to play dabo, and something to spend our latinum on.

    Imagine "sweets" as "STO" or "LoR"

    Thought it would be funny to post.. yeah whatever I whined.. well they built it up for like 2 months, i don't remember how long honestly.

    I was NOT a beta tester, nor did I play past level 10 during open Beta.. so I havent experienced as much as many of you who are okay with the down time.

    So, relax yourselves on hating the upset people.. you arent helping us.. and quite frankly your comments arent needed.. cryptic isnt supplying you with a "defender of Cryptic" title lmao

    and you know this how? i can 100 percent guarantee you the hardware has been swapped out at least 4-6 times since the game went gold. 100 percent promise as that is SOP in every major server farm to do bi-annual or quarterly hardware inspection/replacement.

    Inspection/Replacement is not upgrade. If Cryptic/PWI hasn't specifically stated they want their architecture upgraded, it won't be.

    when will we know when there done please take note before you answer this question that i'm a console gamer and this is the only MMORPG i play so this is my first time dealing with something like this
    Some little words of advice for dealing with patch days:
    - On patch day; never expect to play
    - Day after patch day; expect at least 2-6 hours of downtime cause of emergency patches
    - Week after patch day; expect at least a patch every other day cause of emergency patches.
    - Two Weeks after patch day; expect forums to be full with people who are still complaining about the last patch day and promising/threatening to leave. Unfortunately, they never do.

    Cheers,

    Because I can. Now stop complaining and stomping your feet before your mother takes away your computer for a week.

    its amazing how ignorant you people are by just calling someone a child or an age range. Can you truly not think of anything better? Better get enrolled into school.

    So, Lapsed Gold Member is what we're calling it now? Will this be recognized in an official capacity, to avoid any confusion for the future?

    Silver: Hasn't paid a dime
    Lapsed Gold: Past subscriber (at least bought the box pre-f2p or subbed for 1 month)
    Gold: Currently paying subscriber
    Lifetime: Subscribed forever

    This already happens to a point. People who have subscribed before don't lose their benefits. Anything they got before going F2P is carried over after you switch.

    lol at all the whiners in this thread. This is why I hardly ever post on this forum despite being in STO since day 1.

    Just wanted to say thanks for a quality product Cryptic and for all the hard work you put into it (not sarcasm). I look forward to spending my money and playing STO for years to come.

    I've been here since beta

    hey TRIBBLE.....i asked him a question and he kindly answers that's his job, he's a communicator not an engineer.


    btw the BOP turn rate is nerfed so please fix that, thanks. Can't wait to see D'Tan and the gang with the BSG musci pumping, i've never said this but great addition with the itunes thing so can play the opening theme.

    I have only one criticism, and that is the "Login failed for unknown reason" message.

    It is perfectly obvious to even the casual programmer exactly what the reason is:
    too many people logging in to inadequate hardware, and the software timing out too soon.
    Hardly "unknown" ... lol ... it happens after every major patch! ;-)

    perhaps better wording would be, "unable to log in due to high server load"...
    [that we should have anticipated but obviously didn't]...
    "working as intended".

    /end sarcasm ... lol
