    Can't wait to get back in and get started. The new zone should be exciting.

    Just so you know, there's a bug with the Fleet Patrol Escort Refit that causes the Tail Gun to vanish.

    Apart from that, good patch notes.

    Still don't see anything in known issues about ship specific consoles not being usable when you upgrade your ship. I have both the Xindi ships and when I upgrade them i can no longer put the Cascade Resonance console or Xindi Weapon platform console on the ships.

    We are aware of the issue, and working to resolve it. I'll see about getting it added to the Known Issues list.

    I'm in the same boat but I just ported over another toon to run through it all again... It's been bugging me the last couple days with the skill tree and seeing the rep stuff.

    Yeah.. I actually got Tier V of Delta too, to see all the perks, but then I couldn't really test the traits or anything, due to 'respec' bug, as the Delta traits weren't showing for me to be able to slot them...

    The Galaxy Dreadnought Cruiser model is bugged when using the Galaxy parts. they are slightly missed aligned on the saucer and center pylon. There is the same problem on the Tier 2 Constitution Class model with the right nacelle is almost of the pylon on the model.

    Can this possibly be added to the list of problems please. I like my ships symmetrical :)

    For those having trouble with the ship-specific consoles, I think I have a workaround. Just load up whichever loadout you're looking for (with the console, of course) and you're in business. But it only works if you already have that loadout on Holodeck (removing the console helps as well, because then you have something to put in said slot), and just removing the console doesn't do justice regarding the problem with being unable to equip the console even if you have it.

    Don't hold your breath. Foundry is routinely turned off at the beginning of testing cycles. Half the time it's to prevent leaks. In any case Geko said on twitter that there's no new Foundry features coming, but there's likely to be some new assets (I'm assuming we'll get the ships and the new combat NPC groups).

    I know. Was just a little joke. But would be nice if it ended up being true

    And how do you exactly propose for us to gain ... 124,000 xp when mission replay gives 500xp at best?

    I am sorry but if this is your proposed leveling 50-60 pace and all new missions from Delta Rising being +50 level I have to seriously considering if I shall continue to play this game or not.

    Are we back to the days KDF had to level using PvP only?

    I agree. I mentioned this almost a week ago as well as many others and still nothing on it. more content I won't waste my time testing. would love to but I refuse to spend a week of my life rerunning the same mission(s) over and over to get a level. Fix this Please!

    To reiterate a couple of things from the previous patch thread. Can we have some more information on what is being done to the infinite leveless Lobi space and ground items, please? The Hirogen helmet also does not match the lower parts of the costume. Being a premium item, I have been hoping this would have been fixed months ago. The helmet colors do not have the metallic shine that the rest of the costume does.

    For testing purposes, please fix the respec bug OR make it so we can level A LOT quicker. I have only so much time to spend on my characters on Holodeck, much less on Tribble where nothing counts anyway.

    For the Holodeck, I don't mind it being harder to make 60. I still think the beginning ranks are too easy to make. I always tell new players that trying to get better equipment at the beginning ranks is a waste of time. On the other hand, most of them end up focusing on what will level them the fastest so they can play with the rest of us on the PvE queues. The auto leveling and non-gated missions are missed in that sense, but that's another issue...

    IT is already a known issue, how about a fix for it. My Dyson Science Destroyer T5-U is now a useless pile of junk because I cant use the 3 unique consoles.

    The said they are working to resolve it right in what you quoted. Did you not expect issues on a test server?

    I agree that for the purposes of testing, XP should be turned up. You can reset it to the normal levels when it goes on holodeck. People come to tribble to test. So they want to do what needs to be tested, not grind a ton just to test something. The slower leveling curve will be fine on holodeck because we'll be doing all kinds of activities on there, instead of grinding just to test something..

    I think that might be a UI issue. I have had issues where my tray doesn't respond unless I completely click off the target and then retarget the enemy.

    I completely agree! This is why i completely avoided the Dyson Rep. I only realized this when it came to Tribble as I needed to complete Sphere of Influence and the Dyson Rep tutorial before I could even start the new content. Honestly, leaving things like this will just keep me from bothering with the new content entirely.
