Hello everyone ! I have a problem with the STO game launcher . Every time I open the launcher , it appears that it has to patch 3098 Kb and after it patches aprox 256 Kb, it suddenly stops and it says that it's ready to "Engage" .
The same problem after I exit the game . After a few seconds it sudenly appears the launcher all by itself without me clicking it , it starts patching again aroung 256 Kb and the same problem persists .
Any ideas ? Please help me ! Thank you in advance .

doing the same thing to me, since the patch 2 Thursdays ago.
Trophies for killing FEDS ahh those were the days.
This is happening to everyone, and appears to be normal behavior. Probably downloads a index list of new files, then compares it to what you have, and if you already have it...
I have been patching between 0% and 7% for days when I login and logout of the game. Is this normal? Or do i need to change something on my pc to get the whole patch. Thanks in advance to whom ever replies.
This usually indicates your pre-patch is complete/ up-to-date. Have you been staying up-to-date with Tribble patches? That may have reduced your pre-patch size.

I have the same problem.. only that I did not go onto tribble this time and have done any tribble pacthing. I can see that there is some downloading to do.. but it just closes.
I am actually waiting for the mac version of the game, but I guess that one will not be available until the 12th.
Patch just ate another 6gb of my hdd space, will I be getting this back because I find it hard to believe a patch is 6gb.
STO Folder is now 26GB
btw, why the hell is this site so slow.
My STO-Folder is 27 GB and it divides as followed:
11 GB Playtest (aka Tribble)
16 GB Live (including a 5 GB prepatch folder)
So everything is just fine with you. And if you watch closely at the prepatch-process you should notice the launcher actually NOT downloading whole 6GB if it was done before. It Says patching 5-6 GB but downloads just some 30-100 MB depending on the bugfix added.
Its the same with nearly ALL patches: an amount of x MB/GB is to be fixed and it only needs to download y(<x) MB/GB because its all packed data or changes/adds some lines of code to the files directly.
If it really downloads the whole patch everytime it might overwrite the current data - so there might be an issue. I recommend watching closely at the 2 lines of patching (the second line indicates amount of downloaded data).
Just to mention: I disabled on demand patching for it was to troublesome for me waiting to get that done whenever I enter a changed zone. I prefer having an up do date game just from the start. I don't know if that raises the size of the S8 patch, but honestly I don't care for above reason.

I have been having a look at the new stuff on tribble and while I find most of it first rate my one disappointment is to see that you have not added the early missions from the fed tutorial as available for current fed characters.
when you updated the kdf tutorial mission you added `empire` with about 5 new missions from `dutys of command onwards that started basically just after the kdf character had taken command of the ship for all current kdf characters to play through.
now as I see it you have the mission `field promotions` and `assimilation of the innocent` not sure how many more yet that pick up in about the same place yet there is no opportunity for current characters to play these missions.
this means that most existing players will miss out on all the extra story line you have provided unless they have the space to roll another fed or if they can be bothered.
I think this is a real shame.
When I think about everything we've been through together,
maybe it's not the destination that matters, maybe it's the journey,
and if that journey takes a little longer,
so we can do something we all believe in,
I can't think of any place I'd rather be or any people I'd rather be with.

Is that also related to graphics issues within game, as tribble I do not have these issues!
Thought I would let you all know, its holo that is messed up, but you all knew that already, right!
