    Agreed. Fortunately, for me, it's only my weapons batteries that are keep being unslotted from the tray. But even *that* makes the game hardly playable. Go into STF -> Press F10 -> Unlock Tray -> Put batteries back in -> Lock Tray again. In that time others have already killed the first Cube.

    As it stands now, I only do a bit of pew-pew in the Undine zone (and make sure I don't leave it). Honestly, nobody gives a flying rat's *ss about a spare Borg Cube in Defera. Tray issues, however, like I said earlier, are amongst the most egregious in the game, though. Cryptic would do well to make fixing those a high priority in the next patch.

    I understand, for me it's even a reason to stay away from the game, more and more. Just had the same with my fed alt. Orbiting around space dock. Swapped to my Reman alt for a quick STF elite, came back to my Fed alt, and guess what : Power tray screwed up again. I have 15 ships on this alt. To be honest, I can't remember the lay outs of all those ships.

    Ow lol, people keep saying this. I guess some of you are really supporting this game.. lol. They still didnt fix the most important bugs of the game, and it is "not a bad patch". You guys seriously need to be more honest and stop being condescendent to cryptic. They are not going to gift you just for saying that.

    What about the overheating issues and the bad graphic performance of the new season 9?? nothing about it??? lol...

    Well, i guess cryptic doesnt care anymore, they are doing all these fails on purpose..

    Free ship slots??? who fak1n cares?? of course, its the same story they gift you the things they cant sell. Because NOBODY uses more than 4 or 5 ship slots, its stupid. But since thats the reason they cant sell it, they gift it. I suposse they already know the 65% of the player base are little kids.

    Because this post just oozes maturity.

    Seriously, you should either take a break or just stop playing altogether. Bugs are bugs, and Cryptic should fix them. But when you're moaning about them giving away something free - and I mean genuinely free, no grind involved - then perhaps it's time to take a break. Because seriously, every post I read from you gives the impression that you're playing a game you hate.

    In which case, why play a game you clearly don't like?

    I noticed one thing in the patchnotes that made me wonder. is there going to be a fix soon for the NPCs at locations other than ESD that use ESD backdrops?

    'Occasionally, Boff and captain powers are removed from tray after transitioning maps'

    Not to mention all of my duty officers are not on duty, and gear is missing after logging in. But sure, fix some text that used to say 'run speed'.

    And just enough time for an epic badass 3-minute ISE PUG before the patch.

    I kid you not. 3 minutes. Me in my DHCmitard, a Kar'fi, an Undine tentacle ship, what I think was a JHDC, and a prommie of some sort.

    3 minutes. Someone, probably carrier guy, even grav welled the spheres. My DPS was like 20k.

    Epic. :)

    And now the Patch of DOOOOOMMM!!!!! cometh...

    Time to finish that latest chapter of my collab fic...

    This is going to be a good day.

    I just bought the mogh for my Klingon toon, but if I have to fix the tray lay out EVERY SINGLE TIME I log on, or change maps or zones, what's the point of playing until this is fixed? This didn't happen prior to season 9, so there is no excuse as to why it happens now.

    I think that if you have that bug, the temporary solution is to discharge and reclaim the ship in question.

    OFC, that only works for C-store ships. Fleet and lobi ships, you obviously can't do that.

    They should fix it before the expansion hits, at least.

    I'm sorry but that's a bull **** work around for a problem that didn't exist before the new "season"

    Eh, any content release inevitably comes with bugs.

    You see this all the time in DDO and WoW and LOTRO. God, I stopped playing LOTRO because the Helm's Deep release was so bad...

    So now the Voth NPCs in The Breach and Storming the Spire are fixed!? AFTER the Dilithium bonus ends? I mean, some people might not have been able to complete their Voth reputation because of that, which would have mean't much more Dilithium. COINCIDENCE!?

    Dude, just play the Voth battlezone if you want Dyson marks or dil.

    3 runs of that even without the bonus equals something like 20k dil if you're lucky and can convert your marks to dil.

    2 hours in BZ is enough for a week of refining.

    Right in the middle of the European afternoon AGAIN.

    I take it here in EU we now have to assume everything will be done at a time that is convenient for muricans ?

    Getting a bit tired of all these maintenances right in the middle of my playtime. But I suppose some customers are more important than others. Please dont give us a knee jerk reaction by having a single maintenance that is convenient for us, we wouldn't want you to trouble yourselves.

    Would be nice if the company we supply with money occasionally did a late maintenance that was inconvenient to them maybe ? You lot can stay late you know or even god forbid get into work early, like the rest of us have to sometimes, honestly it wont kill you. It means you have to inconvenience yourselves but hey you do it to Europe all the time !

    As a european player, I completely disagree.. sure they always do maintenance during the european afternoon (starting at 4pm for me) and I don't know what you do for a living, but most of us are still at work or school when they start their maintenance. I'm not even home yet most of the time when the server comes back online..

    Doing maintenance 1 or 2 hours later, now that would probably in the middle of most european's evening playtime.. Right now it always falls in the middle of your usual playtime and you are european, but that doesn't automatically mean it falls in the middle of most europeans playtime..

    And this is the reason i call people like you kids. You will never understand that those "gifts" are not really gifts. But people like you and so many on these forums will never understand. Me as any other people wants this game to keep living, but seriously you guys are making that really hard to happen. You will never realize. Cuz you are kids. Everytime cryptic gives you something for free, even if its only because they cant sell it, you are happy and everything is ok. Suit yourself. I only i am asking for a bit of honesty, but it looks like nobody on these forums even knows what that means. Too bad.

    "Occasionally, bridge officer and captain powers are removed from the power tray when transitioning to another map."

    This happens with normal skills as well, sigh. Cryptic, are you still doing nothing about the loadout system??????? :confused:.. unbelievable.

    Is this the latest trend? Someone complaining about the time of maintenance that has been the standard for how long now? My goodness it's like the first patch notes they've read, or else they would notice someone makes this silly post fairly frequently now.

    Oh and to l30p4rd, classy remark about Americans. I can only imagine your QQ if an American made a similar remark about your nationality on here...

    What ^^ said. Seriously, I'm in the EU and well and seriously don't care. It's not about caring for the Americans, it's the moment with the least amount of players online.

    Nerf is OP, plz nerf
    That's quite the paradox, how could you nerf nerf when the nerf is nerfed. But how would the nerf be nerfed when the nerf is nerfed? This allows the nerf not to be nerfed since the nerf is nerfed? But if the nerf isn't nerfed, it could still nerf nerfs. But as soon as the nerf is nerfed, the nerf power is lost. So paradoxally it the nerf nerf lost its nerf, while it's still nerfed, which cannot be because the nerf was unable to nerf.

    I call it, the Stoutes paradox.

    Er, no, try again. I think you will find it is when these lot start their working day !
    ANd we the customers have to fit into their working day it seems. Funny for a game that runs 24 hours a day and crosses many time-zones. Staggered maintenance would be a start, but I expect it asking too much of the Cryptic/PWE employee's.

    Its good you dont care.

    It actually is bacon. I originally decided that when I'd do maintenance, I'd treat myself to a nice well made breakfast. This became a tradition every week when I took over. :)

    Hope you fixed the missing conponents in mission trays 1 and two. I use two extra shield batteries and holo turrent both always disappear with each start of the mission. No matter where I start from they're gone. I have to add them always. Traveling to a mission they're there. But not in mission.

    Thanks for the update and thanks for the improvements!

    But the grapes have been absolutely superb. There was a mixup and we got Smirk's shipment of peeled grapes. Absolutely divine. Sometimes I forget how splendid Risa grapes are.
