- Snowball weaponry is unaffected by this change.

Screaming at them doesn't help.
What's my position?
That people should know what they're screaming about!
(paraphrased from "The Newsroom)
Hopefully ToI will finally work now (looking forward to participating - at least on some chars).
And I damn hope those new loadout fixes work, I may even go check them on Tribble as I've just today started having trouble with batteries keeping unslotting at every map change.
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!
Seriously...BEST expansion EVER!
No fix for the countless balance issues?
No fix for the 100% dead space and ground PVP?
Useless patch is useless.

We'll see how this works out. Overall good work and thanks for not making a liar out of me.
In particular for these species.
Current Caitian and Ferasan issues
These bugs have been found by me or reported by other users.
Caitians and Ferasans cannot use feline hands with club wear.
Cats cannot use tails with Delta Rep armor.
Winter hats do not allow female cats to use the slit eye option.
Cats cannot use the Risian sunglasses.
Ferasan heads clip with the Honor Guard fur shoulders while using the stern stance.
Box to change face patterns does not always show up. (Only happening on Caitians at the moment.)
Winter hats cause Ferasans to lose their fangs, whiskers, and eyebrows. Also, it gives them the choice of fur colors such as brown, which is for Caitians only.
Ferasan tails clip with Honor Guard capes.
Could you please consider restoring the knockback to "players of the opposite faction"? It added a nice degree of fun for ground PvP during the winter event.

2) A 'much' bigger task to handle than a season launch, and not profitable (in the short term, or a LOT of the long term), so highly stacked against it being focused on
3) They can't force anyone to play or not, plus PVP was never the biggest focus of this game
And with that all said, small fixes are never useless - they can all make a difference As said above, that's only for lvl 50 and above (which is intended to be take time to max out). A new character leveling after DR will quickly find he gets to lvl 53-55ish before he/she hits the DR storyline anyway, where most of us simply had the 'bad luck' to be max leveled upon season launch
Been playing STO since Open Beta, and have never regarded anything as worse than 'meh', if only due to personal standards.

Just add a "snowball knockback immunity" to the disco ball negator, since there's 100% overlap between the two crybaby groups.
Here's a thought. I still have a stack of those alien artifacts; they're not worth using or selling, so I've held on to them in case a new use for them would be found.
Let us convert them into R&D materials via the conversion window used for old mats.
I say check out Eve Online or E-Dangerous If it's going take a while to grind or skill up. Another game might be better because I think this one will soon go into matienance mode.
People going deal with it. Into spending money on another game.
Seriously. This is the best expansion ever!
You deal with it. I thought this game was grindy before the super nerf but at the rate of which I gain xp I refuse to play more then a quick daily mission each day. This grind is absurd! The solution to people who want to level quick... burn off the xp and while were at it...make them require more to do the same job! Who the hell though that was a good decision?!
No...I am thoroughly sick of this TRIBBLE! I used to love this game back when I didn't have to spend half a year leveling 10 freaking levels! This is not "Fun", and last I checked that was the reason people played games...to have "Fun". I have a lifetime, I can up and leave this game any time, It gets any worse...I'm gonna. This game has dropped quite a bit in my opinion. It is sad to me to watch this game fall to such a level, because I loved it...Because I had fun in it! Sadly since the xp nerf I haven't so much as thought about more then a daily on one toon. I'm done with all I have to do in this game in 10 minutes a day. I don't "Want" to do any more until I see a reason worth doing so!
So finally my rant is over. No, I will not deal with it. I will take action and a stand against it as more players should!
What's the point of unmelting snowballs then? If there's no knockback then there's literally no reason to use them outside of killing snowmen, and free snowballs are always there when snowmen are. Do you guys even think this sort of thing through or just look at the forum, see the same five people whinging about playing with others in this mmo, and just change social items to placate them?
Pay no attention to the white knights of Cryptic. The ques are dead and grinding Argala is awesome!
But seriously, I agree with you.
The devs probably won't change it no matter what you say, because this is the direction they want the game to go. And just because YOU and a handful of other forum posters want to be restricted in a little level 50 box doesn't mean everyone does.
I wouldn't mind to be proven wrong if the devs to lower the grind. I have 45 characters, after all. But I can live without it, and I think that the game will stay like this.
No, you don't have to deal with it. But I wasn't giving you an order, I was giving you a suggestion. This grind didn't even exist before DR. It's optional. I don't want you to go through a boring grind if you don't like it.

I agree wholeheartedly. I've gotten every item from WW on day 1. I literally have no reason to participate in WW now.
So the whole reason for snowballs now, is the 15 minutes new players have before getting their first snowgun? Wow, what a good reason. You may as well have Q give all new players a cheapo snowgun upon entering WW for the first time.
And the unmelting snowballs? You still expect us to pay for them?
It's been a fun 3 years of WW. It's sad this will be the last year of the event, and even worse it being such a short season of less than 3 weeks.
Instead of finding some other game to play instead of STO for 11 months of the year, I guess it'll have to be 12 months of the year now.
I say just go to another game and at least be treated better without the massive name calling <redacted> did to the playerbase.
That really hurt...

Are you serious? The last several messages I have not posted your name period so please do not pull me into some name calling disagreement.
Very mean.

So, saying. "Ignore a person." is mean. Seriously!
Anyway, back to the update.
Yes, I am being serious. And if you mention a certain thread and a certain post, I WILL specify who that person was talking about, and here's a hint. It won't be anyone that hasn't posted ITT. And I might say other things on my mind. Got it? I'm too insecure and emotionally unstable to deal with this TRIBBLE.

Stop it. You could have ignored any of my comments. I've moved on so simply don't respond.

I suppose I understand why they are doing this. We do not want to upset the 200 RPers who decide to indulge in RP the odd time while in public zones and may have an occasional snowball thrown in their direction during the 1 month of the year this event takes place. It is understandable they don't want to upset them.
They lay down big money for their anything but gameplay items such as the standalone interiors released years ago, and the 2 or so 500 zen costumes released every year.
Cryptic knows where the money is and we can't upset these delicate snowflakes.
It is quite sad Cryptic decided to put a lump of coal in most of the community's stocking this year because of a few.
