Next Feature episodde re-run?

willamsheridanwillamsheridan Member Posts: 1,189 Arc User
I was wondering if there will be a feature episode re-run soon. the last one was May 2014 and October 2013. I expected that there would be one for the Delta Rising release but there was not.

I know that they don´t have fixed dates (between May 2012 and Oct. 2013 there were no reruns at all) but they are a good opportunity to replay old missions, get some interesting rewards, unseful BOffs and also Lobi

    There was one in may 2014. There have been two a year the past few years, I think either I'm forgetting one or we only had one in 2014. I agree, it'd be nice to get one soon.

    You're correct ... my guess "it's gone", probably "too much" free Lobi (people can't have nice things these days) ... remember the "Free Lobi Weekend" back in October, I guess that's the "replacement" ...

    Yeah and the one in May was way shorter than 'normal' as they used to run for about a month and you could get about 450 Lobi from it.

    Thats not quite correct. There was only one in 2012 (May) and one in 2013 (October) so we had about 1,5 years without any re-runs. Buth thats no reason that we can´t have any now ;-) We had 2 in 2010 and 2 in 2011 i think.


    But if they really cancelled the re-runs they should at laast make 2-3 free lobi weeks a year. The game is already expensive enough and too much about grinding.

    And also there needs to be a way for new players to get the Reman and Breen Boff or get them again if discarded

    I guess the 2014 one is just a glitch in the matrix?

    That happened exactly once. Originally there was the lobi scavenger hunt for 15 lobi max per character, ever in that character's lifetime. Then they had the big change and gave lots of lobi. Then they had two shorter ones for like 50-ish I think?

    they have limited the re-runs anyway... last time they did it they did not include any episodes that awarded a free ship... would be nice if they allowed it so where you can run the dyson ship this year again for new folks... or the oblisek carrier.

    The rerun isn't related to the anniversary ship. Those are separate events.

    featured episodes... those are featured episodes. just cause they timed it with the anniversary does not make them not featured episodes.

    Well technically the FE Reruns were always about the "FE Series" (Breen, Devidian, Romulan, The 2800) and never about the later "one-off" FE's

    I wouldn't at all be surprised if they decided to stop doing the whole Feature Episode re-run thing as of Delta Rising.

    Could be right. Nw that they are revampting the Romulan Storylne ba shortening it to 4 Episodes afaik, there is a good chance that those episodes, inlcuding our chance for the Reman Sci officer and the Lobi will be gone. But that would be unfair. First they make almost 100% of the Game only about Grinding stuff for anything and then they take away anything that will reward something for free? That not a nice gesture towards the players.

    According to Tribble Patchnotes:
    The Romulan Featured Series chain starting with “The Vault” and ending with “Darkness Before the Dawn” remains unchanged.

    Not really ... while they're removing 11 Episodes, "Cutting the Cord" or any other FE is not on the list ... but who knows what the future might hold, they seem to be in a habit of butchering content, these days ... given the Breen FE has no fancy VO etc, It wouldn't suprise me if that's something next on the list of being removed ...

    They are still figuring out how to monetize them before bringing them back.

    I really wanna see some replays too, im still quite new to STO and would love to be able to get the Breen officer and a few of the others too

    If there not going to replay the rewards they should stick the Breen and a few more "Special Officers" into the Zen store im sure a few people would buy em.

    STO may actually get some of my real live cash if they stick the Breen Bridge Officer in the store. If, however, they put it in the Lobi store then they can jump off the Empire State Building and land eye-first on a javelin.
