    We are aware of this issue and are working on a resolution for it. We have top men on it (no, really, look!).

    Cheers,

    Brandon =/\=

    So what do the 'Bottom Men' do?

    Insert the BUGS to begin with??
    (must be so that the "Top Men' look better)

    3 things that have absolutely got on my nerves yesterday.

    1. mirror event, map manager 'could not find map'. i have recently had this issue yesterday and had it half a dozen times in a row before it quit playing about.
    2. gorn minefield, klingon invasion force and starbase 24 warp out issue which i suspect is the same thing thats hit 1.
    3. updated public queue system in need of an update, after checking for example the mirror event after its issue in 1, the thing reset itself and i end up accidentally clicking to join another map instead. there should be a feature to save last thing you clicked to join to make it easier to rejoin it if needed.

    1 other thing that is far less annoying but reported on the tribble forum during open beta.

    4. fix the valdore wing texture.

    I've never received one of those.

    Perhaps visiting the sites that offer these "deals" is not such a good idea...

    Those spams picked up a lot in the late weeks of season 7.

    I only ever seemed to get them going to a major hub, like DS9.

    I still haven't got the extra char slot with the release of the expansion
    I'm stuck not playing romulans while both my KDF and FED fleet-buddies play theirs

    sent a ticket to support roughly 2 days ago, a discussion with Brandon on twitter sent me to the same support
    I'm still waiting for a solution, but how much can I wait before I get bored for not even playing :rolleyes:

    ok so your Website and launcher say 14:00-16:00 UTC (GMT i take it) yer the link says 3Pm lol what is it???

    2pm or 3pm lol :s


    We're in British Summer Time (Yeah, that's an oxymoron if ever there was one) which means that we are GMT+1. So launcher says 2-4pm GMT/UTC which is currently 3-5pm for us in the UK. Simple, see?

    Brandon, many of us still can't log-on because, when the launcher tries to patch, the launcher crashes every time; thus a simple log-in is impossible! We've been locked out of Star Trek Online for 3 DAYS and we've had not one minute of game time. So please understand that all this talk of improvements and tweaks is infuriating instead of encouraging. Will this next maintenance fix the patch-crash problem plaguing the game launcher? Because the problem is not on our end -- we've tried every suggestion and not one thing helps.

    Also, without the ability to log-in, we can't make a support ticket through the game. And when I try to go through the support tab here on the website, I'm blocked yet again. Here's the error message:
    "The page isn't redirecting properly
    Firefox has detected that the server is redirecting the request for this address in a way that will never complete. This problem can sometimes be caused by disabling or refusing to accept cookies."

    Just letting you know that, just because support tickets might not be coming in on this bug, it doesn't mean the problem is fixed or small in scope.

    any news on when foundry will be back up?

    That will likely be looked into when the actual game breaking issues are dealt with.

    Thank you :-)
    Patch notes are linked above We're still working on a fix for why players are unable to delete mail.

    Can we have a delete all button please :D (I have a years worth of mail to delete :rolleyes:)

    Please

    Good job with LOR :)

    I have a few suggestions for things that need fixing:
    1) Everyone who is whining about mail should get stuffed in a locker.
    2) Everyone whining about Transwarp should be paddled until unable to sit
    3)Massage artist should be placed in the dev room
    4) FIX THE LOG IN ISSUES

    :mad:
    Sorry, I'm in charge of managing the Starbase, we just moved up to Tier IV, and I haven't been able to log in since LoR crashed upon us.

    For the record, I'm on a fresh wineskin and I get to the first screen (sometimes all the way to the character selection screen), the screen flashes black a couple times, then the whole computer locks up... except for the music.... the music keeps playing.... over and over..... please make it stop.....

    This is really the issue you should be fixing.

    I did put in a ticket. Know what I got? A note saying "We are aware of this" and a closed ticket. Fix anything? No.

    Thanks for the cancel ability. It has been a needed thing.

    Ye its handy to have that but only problem is if you have started something and you go to cancel it if you have put bits in it they you lose all of that which is a pain

    As i started of the Borg MKXII shield and was advised to use the Maco one instead now if i cancel i will lose the Dilithium i have put in the Borg Neural Processors and other bits so that is a shame they cant do it so you can cancel it and you get it back

    Just another why they hop you will spend more money converting Zen to Dilithium.

    So question for Devs who work on this when are you going to get this sorted out i mean how long has it been on tribble now and yet you role out a expansion which cripples you allready over loaded servers people pay for extra stuff and dont get it when they get ingame.

    Have to sit there and wait to get in game again cause you didnt plan ahead and think oh we have new content it might bring in extra people or people that havent played in a while oh well sod it it doesnt matter about them they can wait aslong as we have stuff in the cstore to make more money on it doesnt matter about them.

    It would be nice if you could for a short period of time forget about ??? or $$$ and fix the bugs reduce all the lag problems on the servers fix all the issues that are are going on.

    then when you put stuff up on cstore people might be more inclined to buy it as they know the game is worth it and that they will be able to play it with out being kicked of as the server needs to be patched and performance issues.

    I love this game i have played since Day one of Alpha testing but it gets realy frustrating that you build up all they hype about a new add on and all this great content but it kills everything in the process

    I was talking to other ppl in my fleet saying oh well this LOR is coming out everything is going to blow up in there faces again and what happened it did.

    For the people that still pay to play this game to get the extra bits its evening more frustrating, if you think of it this way if you took your car to get a service and you got it back drove it down the road and it kept breaking down you would want either your money back or them to fix it straight away and you would most likely not go back to them again

    well this is abit how i feel about things sometimes with paying to play a game that is bugged laggy everytime something new comes out you cant play it properly cause of issues and the servers having to keep being taken down to fix stuff

    Ok end of rant but please get these problems sorted out and spend some time upgrading your hardware to reduce lag if you have server sharing resources with another game like never winter move that off as its not fair that it is killing STO

    I imagine that project will be removed in due time anyway, unless they hold another event.

    It seems to me that the problems everyone is having with the loading screens stopping and getting server not responding is not top priority for Cryptic. I hope on Sunday when I get back from vacation that this issue will be settled. I have made some purchases in game and if this game isn't fixed and I can't utilize them, I may consult a lawyer and see what my options are for cryptic not honoring their side of the deal. If this keeps progressing the way it is, I would love to see a class action suit against the developers. Maybe then they will get it into their heads.
