Smoke Grenade's baseline chance to generate an Expose effect has been substantially increased, from 2% up to 15-30% based on Rarity of module.
This chance is computed separately from the Expose chance generated by the Situational Awareness trait.
This allows them to stack for a ~50% chance to expose on Very Rare Smoke Grenade modules with Situational Awareness slotted.
This seems incorrect. if the expose chances are calculated seperated, shouldn't that mean they stack up to 1-(0.7 x 0.8)* = 0.44 = 44 %? Or do I misunderstand what this is supposed to mean?
*(0.7 * 0.8 is the chance that neither the 30 % proc nor the 20 % proc trigger, so it's the chance of no exposes)

I more worried about things that aren't being shown on the known issues list, because to me that pretty much amounts to, "we are aware of it but don't plan to doing anything about it". That are a lot of really obvious bugs that have gone unfixed for way too long and I for one don't plan on sitting around saying nothing and hoping for the best.
LOL. Cryptic already are aware of all the other bugs. They just only show us in the list the ones that they are willing to make an effort to fix or the ones that will be easy to fix. Thats all. And even then, those ones marked as "known" are not used to be fixed so.. lol.
But this is happenin since eons ago, please wake up.
Already 14:00 and the patch didnt even started. Thanks again cryptic for making me to miss hours that i could be playing because i though it was on maintenance already. Always the same story. Cryptic didnt even know what time are they living.. seriously.

It's not scheduled to start for another half hour. It's currently 5:30am PDT. It starts at 6:00am PDT.

I know exactly what time is it. Right now it is 13:00 UTC or 14:00 UTC. So, even that , they should've started 1 hour ago. But well, what can we expect from cryptic lol.
4 hour planned maintenance
Extented by 2-3 hours
1-2 hours of laggy gamepaly
Server Crash
Emergency Maintenance for 4-5 hours
Emergency Patch
"Normal" gameplay starting tomorrow, with obligatory daily patches
Did I miss something?
Sounds about right, but I'm hoping the first crash hits eight or so hours after s9 hits so I can win the fleet 'when will the server explode?' sweepstake!

You're forgetting the server Armageddon that collapses the entire game for two weeks of frantic fixes and hourly posts on what's been fixed and how many fuses have been replaced.

Not the point. They start at 6 PDT, which is 9 EST. My clock says 8:37 EST. Therefore, 23 minutes until the patch starts.

You never learned to have patience, eh? It's just slightly late, and there you go, whining that it's late.
Our scheduled maintenance has begun! We expect downtime to last for 4 hours and Ill post again once it is complete. Thanks yall!

Hail to Thee, my Mistress!
How's the pleasure palace? Are you and your wife enjoying the massages and servants? Is the fresh fruit fresh enough? Is the plumbing still working? Kind of concerned about that last part, as we built a whooooole lot of those pleasure palaces really fast.
Hail Ba'al!
Also, can we please get the new LC up while the patch is going? It'd help ease the boredom.
If I recall correctly, first they'll need to bring the servers up with the new Season 9 build, then it can start patching. Not entirely sure, but that's from fuzzy 6AM memory. :P
So what are you all going to do first once the game is back up?
First, I'm going to run around new ESD like a mad man and just take it all in. Then I'm going to go run the new Borg/Undine mission arc. Then I'll hit up the new FE. After that, probably hit up the Undine BZ and then maybe some of the queue missions.

The new pleasure palace is wonderful! Though the servants did not bring grapes which was a little disappointing, frankly.
Also I'm not sure if Smirk Smirk has the new LC to be posted. I'll find out when I go in this very early morning. :P

I really wanna see about the Undine Fluidic Space mechanic and how it feels flying in!

- No secondary deflectors.
- No Fleet holding.
- Final ESDestination.

Yup you forgot the other emergency patches to fix seroius bugs that will appear after the maintenance.
And after that, be ready for more "never going to be fixed" fails.
This is the way its always been.

Get the Forums Enhancement Extension!

Also, Smirk, any chance that we can get the new LC up while the patch is running? IUt'd really help pass the time.
~LaughingTrendy
when can we start patching

Sounds like a plan.
What, no peeled grapes?
Grrrrr. Lemme just call the Sovereign's Minion&Servant Service and yell at some people, and I'll get that little SNAFU all fixed up...
Hail Ba'al!
Also, thank you!
I'm probably going to hit ESD, then rerun the Undine/Borg arc on my main, then kick some Undine rear in the new FE.
In all seriousness, looking forward to getting back in game.
