    You can buy it in game with zen. On launch day I bought it from the Bundles tab for 12,500 zen.

    I tried to get it today but it wont let me? So you could only buy it with Zen on the 14th?

    It is still available in store for 12,500 zen. In the store click the tab which says 'Discount packs' and the item in the list you will see is 'Delta Operations Pack' at 12,500zen.

    If you cannot see it then you may have bought something from the pack already which stops you being able to buy the pack. Not sure if this is like the destroyer packs where buying a single destroyer stops bundles being bought but it is the only possibility otherwise.

    Hrm I am going to go out on a limb here and suggest that the character you are logged into when trying to buy the pack has not got to level 50 yet. Rereading the question and interpreting more directly is suggesting you can see the pack but not buy it. You can probably see red text saying you cannot use it, which means that you are not high enough level.

    Try changing to a level 50 toon or try and quickly level up your existing one to 50 as that almost certainly is why you cannot buy it.

    Thank you for the help but it still wont let me purchase it with a level 50 Character. I just get a message saying that item can not currently be purchased. I don't understand why as nothing is in red saying I can't.

    More thoughts?

    Problem solved. I had to try a different level 50 Character and purchase it. Which is weird cause the first one was my main character.

    Where do we claim the "Three High-End Upgrade Kits*"? I don't see them in inventory or R&D under my main character where I first unpacked the DR pack.

    How do we set the exclusive forum titles "and can also be used on the forums"? It isn't listed when looking under 'avatar' or 'User CP.'

    Is the Talaxian Uniform only for Fed?

    Are fleet ship T5 upgrades account wide once alts also purchase those fleet ships?

    Do the Vestas now properly upgrade or do we need to strip the ship still?

    Thanks

    I can't get it either - says 'item cannot be purchased.'
    I've tried on both my characters (one lvl 50 and one lvl 53). I haven't purchased any items from the bundle yet. Very strange...

    High end upgrade kits are in the C-Store under 'Items'.

    Forum title is changed by clicking the 'Edit your Avatar' link near the top of the forums.

    Talaxian outfits are not only for Feds, however they are 'Off Duty' outfits so make sure you're looking in the right place for them.

    Yes Tier 5U upgrades on Fleet ships will also affect any of the same ships you buy for other characters on your account. (At least that's what the Dev blog said, haven't personally tested it)

    Not sure about the Vesta, haven't tried upgrading mine yet.

    Thanks, I resolved the other problems, except I have no option to select 'Voyager' title on the forums.

    As I mentioned, I have no option to update forum title as the "Title and Display Name Options" still have 'Default.'

    Not a big deal, though it would have been nice to show my support for DR pack here as well as the new ships to me look great in the sense of being an exotic contrast to traditional class, and open up the whole range of gameplay strategies, minus carriers and shuttles.

    Yeah I actually don't have the option for the DR pack titles either. My LTS and LoR titles are all in there, but none of the DR titles.

    Don't buy the pack. Don't buy anything, you're supporting Asian style grind MMOs which suck the fun out of games.

    This has probably been said before and it is directed at Cryptic/STO

    Just wanted to provide feedback on the latest expansion.

    I understand the need to refresh content and to provide different story lines that keep players interested. Though I may not agree with these lines because I like Star Trek I play the game. So when you revamped the settings on the PVE missions you created a train wreck. For example in order to get Borg Nanoprobes (only on Elite PVE) you need a serious upgrade on your ship. You will not be able to get the various sets (shields/deflectors/Impulse) without those. Maybe you can get them somewhere else? This is also the case with some of the others as well.

    Second while I can afford to spend money on stupid things - my choice. However my son brought up a valid point. It is ludicrous to spend the amount of Zen (i.e. dollars) on ships like the Bortasq, Scimitar or Odessey....especially the packs only to have to buy yet another upgrade to 5TU..THEN to have to spend dilithium like it is going out of style to upgrade your equipment, especially when there is a cap on the amount you can refine - SO again you have to spend Zen to convert to Dilithium in order to do this. I get the need to make a profit but this is really gouging and screwed up.

    Maybe I missed something.....

    Lock boxes are for catching gambling addicts for key purchases at the z store.

    Ship/character upgrades are like getting your next fix from the guy with the trench coat at corner Z store.

    It's a program designed to catch addicts who don't have enough self control and make lots of impulse purchases. The game part is only the icing which lately is a bit stale not from lack of fresh updates but design choices for some things as well as bugs not being fixed. This lets you see the underbelly of what is really going on easier since the fun isn't as distracting as it could be.

    So, I saw the Last Chance Discounts notice (and no GNN thread) and my only thought was, "Well, now there have to be 5 ships in it that I really want." I'm not sure raising the price, ever, is a good plan. It's so grossly imbalanced that it really only appeals if you spend enough time on the Fed side to warrant purchasing/using so many... and all the synergistic Starship Traits are on the Fed ships. So, with only 2 KDF and 2 Rom ships, maybe two of which I really want... you raise the price?

    Look, if you don't mind, could you at least release faction-specific 3-packs for 5K Zen? Once you release more T6 KDF and Rom ships, of course. I'd be more likely to buy all three of those than I would one Ops Pack at 15000 Zen, even if they unlocked the same number of ships in total and the same secondary perks for each faction. There is next to no chance I'll buy the Ops Pack at 15000 Zen...

    Uhm...so has anybody been able to claim the forum titles that are supposed to be part of the pack? I do not have that option, I can only set to default title.

    Cryptic. Wouldn't it be nice, if people could actually show off their support for the best expansion ever? :p Please fix.

    so the Delta op pack says it costs 15k. but the button to purchase is grayed out and i cant buy it. i have 15k. it also says in red "your character cannot use this item." but then it ALSO says "thank you for purchasing the Delta Rising Founder's Pack" RIGHT BELOW the red words saying i cant use it.

    some details to know:
    i dont have a lvl 50+ character, nor have i ever.
    ive been lifetime sub since release (i know, pretty contradicting things, but lets just say life rly gets in the way and so do dead PC's preventing me from playing)

    the character im on is starfleet.

    the Temporal pack says i can buy it just fine, so i dont believe my level is an issue.

    and as for the whole "having items from the pack preventing you from buying the pack" thing goes anyways i have the mirror outfit thats in the temporal pack, among a few others, and the pack is purchasable with no issues. even if it were, i dont actually have anything from the delta pack except for the intel outfit. which i bought on its own AFTER the delta pack wouldnt work.

    im not really sure what to do at this point. my memory is bad and i dont remember buying this in the past but it clearly says ive purchased it. i might have gotten it back when it was 12.5k? i also know i havent claimed this because of the intel outfit having been bought seperately (again, after i discovered this problem) AND i dont have the talaxian outfit or titles or anything else easily findable to check just in case. its starting to really bother me.


    (there is also no claim button. )

    any help i can get is appreciated, and sorry for reviving a dead thread i am not allowed to make my own support thread yet and since im only allowed to respond to them this seemed like the best place to do so.


    unrelated help request: i won a guardian cruiser ship out of the lobi case thing. and i didnt get anything in my inventory.

    Things to know: some above, not lvl 50. same issues where it says its 3k. but the button is greyed out and the red says "your character cannot use this item" - this one im more inclined to believe it being due to my level. but someone said that i might have a box in my inventory that i have to use in order to have it? not sure if thats true or if it was a troll, or maybe i get that box ONCE i hit 50 and unlock the ship in the z store? again any help is appreciated :D <3

    When i see your screenshot, I see the Zen cost and not the word "available".
    Atm i have no new lvl 10 char, so couldn't check if new chars have still the zen price behind accountwide unlocked packs.
    The delta pack has T6 ships, no lower level ones. Each faction has intel ships (fed 3, rom 2 and kdf 2 also), furthermore u get iirr 2 non intel t6 fed ships, a galaxy cruiser, and the spearheaded sci ship.
    <60 chars cant claim these due their level, however, u can check under personal for the faction intel boffs, and the delta doff package (3 purple doffs always same ones, delta raceial ones). Each faction also gets 3 intel boffs: eng/int, tact/int and sci/int.
    I also vaguely remember that delta pack has a limit to romulans, since it also has a doff package, which needs to be either fed or kdf, so finishing arc and choosing faction also determines for Romulans when to being able to claim stuff.

    Otherwise also try restartign STO. I hope it helps, the delta pack has really fun stuff packed in it, especially it has a bit more rossfction claim stuff in it.

    i appreciate the help, (unfortunately ive been painfully aware of the issue for about a week, so the in and out of the game doesnt help :/ )and nope the only thing in personnel are playable fe caitian joined trill and fed klingon atm. im gonna go with the whole, not leveled thing for now and hope when i get high enough. and far enough story wise etc. things will fall into place. if anyone else has thoughts on the matter please feel free to continue helping. if i get to the end game and i still cant touch the thing i will send in a wtf ticket :P (if we dont reach a 100% sure answer here ofc)

    I can't be 100% certain, but I believe the Delta pack IS level restricted since all the ships are T6 and the content itself is lvl 50+. While you don't need to buy the pack to play the content, I can see them locking the pack out so those without a lvl 50 wouldn't feel "ripped off" when they can't use everything in the pack right away.

    With the temporal pack, there are several ships of all tiers so being able to purchase that at level 1 was something they needed to do.

    Also, this is a nearly 3 year old thread and I think you may have been better served creating a new thread. Some folks will come in here and rage over that fact, but I'm not one of them. :)

    Here's hoping you get this sorted out.

    Characters below 50 can still claim stuff like the Doffs and Boffs, so it is not fully restricted. The ships you get from this Pack are boxed and cannot be opened until 50 but you can have them in Inventory before then. The Legacy of Romulus Expansion worked the same way.

    one of the reasons i posted here is because for some reason it says i cantcreate posts or threads yet i can only "reply" to others. i think its because its the first time ive ever been active in the forum so its rly new account even tho ive had it for like ..5+ years? whenever beta came out lol but yea even if youre uncertain its still closer to an answer than ive been, so thank you.

    and as for the 2nd post:

    thanks for your intake as well and glad my necro posting isnt a salty maker for ya <3 lol like i said i am hoping that i get an answer when i hit 50.. do you think that may be why i dont have my guardiasn cruiser yet from the lobi box? like i said before someone said its in a lock box sorta thing when you unlock it but never mentioned if you still needed to claim it from the z store or not.so i wasnt sure if they were trolling or just didnt know if i had gotten it from the store yet? either way the item still says 3k zen in the store and the red words saying i cant use it..so i dunno what to do on that one. also wait to 50 i guess?
