    Incessant whining is disrespectful. Pointing out that incessant whining is indeed incessant whining is not disrespectful, it is a simple statement of fact.

    And we can continue back and forth for some time.
    Personally i would like to see these time vary so it is not always Europe which bites the bullet.
    This program, though reasonably normal at times, seems to have a strong affinity to classes belonging to the Cat 2.0 program. Questerius 2.7 will break down on occasion, resulting in garbage and nonsense messages whenever it occurs. Usually a hard reboot or pulling the plug solves the problem when that happens.

    As to "proof," none is needed - it is simple common sense.



    Actually if you think about it, the Maintenance always happens on wed or a thurs at 3pm gmt to about 5pm gmt...... as you lot keep saying it is an American server, im not saying its not i think what people are pi**ed about is all every1 saying this is a good time to do it. its not a good time, its in the just coming in to where every1 is on their way home and want to play STO! as it is a "American" server the down time "should" be on your times not this times, that way the programers get to go over the patch and see if it works and they did not make any unintended bugs. many many of you wont read this, i dont care....


    ITS STILL A USA SERVER IT SHOULD BE DONE ON YOUR TIME ZONE LIKE MIDDAY!! YOUR TIME NOT WHEN PEOPLE ARE COMING HOME TO PLAY STO!!!!!!!

    Tuned down the difficulty of the elite Crystalline Entity encounter.

    Excellent! Glad this got some priority, given all the trouble that went into fixing it and reintroducing it into the game. Any ETA on a patch to address the general lack of Romulan Boffs?

    i read it and see your point, but the engineers need REST. less rest= more downtime to fix a fix that they screwed up!

    It isn't about what is a good time for you or me - it is about what is a good time for the service overall. In other words, one that affects the fewest players.

    thank you.... 6am server maintenance is not good they should rest and look things over when they get to work not be rushed in to a fix that might work or might not, a longer time from when they start on a wed or thurs should give them the time they need to re check the code and make the game alot better for every1 .

    You can respec right now. I had this issue myself but if you click the "undo all skills" (or something to that effect) button, it will allow you to do the respec. I tried multiple times and the game kept saying "there was a problem with your skills" until I clicked the undo button

    The downtime has nothing to do with geography.... even if the servers are in America, if the majority of the playerbase was in Europe, they'd adjust the time to inconvienence less people.

    This is just proof that there are more of us playing in America then there are elsewhere. Welcome to the minority, Europe. All this time proves is that there aren't as many subscribers in the Azores as everywhere else :)

    I bet 100+ are replies to whiners and the rest to people like you and me who actually understand at least briefly what the reasoning is for the downtimes etc!

    What part of "vary" do you not understand.

    I'm not asking for downtime to be scheduled at times inconvenient for players in the US timezone, but i am asking for the downtime to vary so it is not always the European players who are hit by this.

    Carry the burden through the whole community and not just Europe.

    In response to the quote you quoted, he's kind of proven the point, this is when the majority of EU players are "on their way home" to play STO, not already home, I'm affected by 8/10 downtimes if not more but I don't mind I can't understand why anyone would, are these the only hours that these people can play?! If so I'd suggest getting a different game!

    but then more players are inconvenienced.
    talk to Branflakes or a community manager for more info.

    Maybe they learn to fly, or stop parking. If u don't move u get hit for sure. IMHO it has nothing to do with elite to park somewhere in space. Elite means u Need to be very good at a Mission to Claim the reward. If 1% can do it, it is working as intended. Elite. Per description a very small Group of all Players. Also all other Elite STF Need to be more challenging. Infected Space Elite has nothing to to with elite. It is so easy any Level 50 Player with some idea and green mk V equip can do.
    nice u wasted so much time in your sig - i do not see it anyway :)
