Hi Captains,

We will be bringing down Star Trek Online tomorrow, Thursday, June 26th, at 7AM PDT (click here to view in your timezone) for our weekly scheduled maintenance. There is no patch being applied. We expect this maintenance to last for 2.5 hours. The test server, launcher and access to manage your account may also be unavailable during some portions of the maintenance.

Thanks for your patience and understanding,

- The Star Trek Online Team

    Priceless. :D

    However as there was no patch to Redshirt, there's no patch to be applied to Holodeck. Simple. Though some bugfixes probably wouldn't hurt, eh?
    TOIVA, Toi Vaxx, Toia Vix, Toveg, T'vritha, To Vrax: Bring in the Allegiance class.
    Toi'Va, Ti'vath, Toivia, Ty'Vris, Tia Vex, Toi'Virth: Add Tier 6 KDF Carrier and Raider.
    Tae'Va, T'Vaya, To'Var, Tevra, T'Vira, To'Vrak: Give us Asylums for Romulans.

    Don't make ARC mandatory! Keep it optional only!

    With my luck, a stealth nerf'll probably involve reducing the chances of finding Tropical Bird Eggs on Risa during a Horga'hn Hunt...

    No, "No Patch" is safe. Since nothing is changed, you don't actually have to download a patch at all. It's when it says there IS a patch, but that NOTHING ACTUALLY CHANGES in the patch, that you should panic and freak out.

    Agreed...

    When we are told that there is a patch that is 'Stability Update only' - that is when to panic that things are due to break due to stealth nerfs.

    Yup.

    Patricularly the "Stability Updates only" is scary, since the servers have a bad history of imploding afterwards, plus it's not uncommon to expect stealth nerfs happening during "Stability Updates only"...

    There are always a ton of stealth nerfs that they never mention and do not want to discuss. The most annoying one was probably when they brought out the new kit system. I remember my old MK X engineering kit hitting really hard. After the new system came out that old kit was nerfed like crazy. I used to be able to go to Defera, law down some mines and take out 4 borg. Post nerf, only two of them would die so I was having to finish off the others. Now that I have the newer version of the kit (MK XII) I am doing the same damage I was doing before with my old MK X. This was a power creep nerf.

    I think they never mention things like this because they know players are going to make noise about it. I wish they would at least own up to it.
    No, I am not who you think I am. I am someone different. I am instead a banana.

    Mines were nerfed in general because they were one hit kill wonder weapons in PvP, and still are despite it. Other than that, kits have had a flat-out upgrade across the board, because we have access to more powerful modules, in addition to the new rep, fleet and lockbox modules, and the ability to combine them in ways we could not before.

    And I had totally different feeling with my Spire MK XI after I converted him I Crit killed several Borg groups on Defere with my grenades (like first 3 groups on Temple). It never happened before.
    Never done any numbers, throw a grenade and watch what happens.
    After 21 crafting assignments and burning 1575 dil to bypass 2h building time to build MK II dual cannon I got:
    0, yes zero very rare AP MK II dual canons
    p.s. I will execute my rare Jam’hadar who is serving under me for 1,5 years for incompetence it’s just a MK II dual canon, he is Energy Weapons Officer not a Doctor.

    Hi Captains,

    for our weekly scheduled maintenance. There is no patch being applied.

    Maybe the devs are so excited with the now Transformers movie airing,
    that they decided to completely abandon the plan for this thursday patch :D

    From the notes I've been reading, it's only a server restart and hardware check today. I don't believe there's any futzing with new builds on Holodeck.

    My Elite Fleet Jaffa bacon slavers have such a poor bacon drop rate too.. My Ba'con carrier pumps them out at 125 aux yet even though they find live prey; they refuse to give me delicious bacon worthy of their costs..
