and give out the ship for free.
thats the only apology you can make. just give it out for free instantly. you screwed a damn simple collect minigame, now give it out.
im really fed up with this quality of programming. you cannot programm a simple thing thats in line with minessweeper, so just dont try it.
put 1k qmendations into the dust mission and give it out for free.
i just cannot get how someone can be so INCOMPETENT at all to be unable to programm a small minigame.
again give out the ship for free without grind, and we are even.
until then i advice everybody not to spend a single cent in this game anymore until this madnes ends that there since DR now.
you released 5 features, NONE OF THEM IS WORKING.
NONE
you even had to make seperate threads for all the reports ...

Had they done this from the start I wouldn't be logging into swtor all the time. But they don't understand/care that their grinds suck the life out of the anniversaries in the first place.
The ship is an OK looking space-TRIBBLE - we just want command slots. We're going to do the daily because *we have to* but no one wants to, no one enjoys it, and NO ONE completes and it goes "that was worth it".
Its like queuing up in the wrong line at the DMV. you sigh, you get back in the other line, and you pound sound in your head.
All in all - Way to limp-noodle the 'give away'.
And to top it off, players are unable to do the daily, so we lose day-one credit. High-quality.
That, and my ships are resetting their trays and unequipping officers by themselves. AGAIN. And the server rubberbands worse than ever.
Guys, devs, seriously. Can you apply an update that doesn't break EVERYTHING?

That's the thing...It doesn't work. Its all Go Live QA. Ship it and let the customers find the bugs.
This ^ is exactly why I don't play this game anymore. Its not that I don't like the game its that the devs feel some bizarre need to TRIBBLE me off withwith what I can only assume is a misguided attempt to cash in on greed.
Really the system should instance each molecule once an individual tags it so nobody else can jump in (as is always seen at start coordinator for winter race).
Still waiting to be able to use forum titles
When I think about everything we've been through together,
maybe it's not the destination that matters, maybe it's the journey,
and if that journey takes a little longer,
so we can do something we all believe in,
I can't think of any place I'd rather be or any people I'd rather be with.
There are so few particles this would make for an absolute nightmare.

I will not let the childish acts of a criminal ruin this game for me.

Do the suits in charge understand what "testing" is? Do they not believe in testing because it would cost too much money?
no rewards beyond that one trace on esd, the red trace. in all but one of my scans have i only reached the grand score of 15 points.. before another player took it off me.
its much the same out on k7, players run in steal it away by accessing the part while another player is doing it. a result is that players are running through queues to get at it.. only to learn that the first come first server is the way its being played...
more curious then anything over those hours, shame i had no corn for popping though, the k7 chat is pure gold is popcorn value.
Been around since Dec 2010 on STO and bought LTS in Apr 2013 for STO.
I am still wondering if the devs are foreign programmers locked in a little room or cannot count past two particles (they could be Navajo which would explain a lot and make it forgivable). I ran Dust to Dust with some difficulty but made it first try. Warped to Star Fleet where the lag was horrible but finally got the mini game. Tried the party crashers with no luck since lag kept me from chasing them. Tried the omega and after a dozen tries finally found an isolated particle in an unused holodeck. 10 tries in Vulcan space even with two unattended particles, finally got a score but no credit so decided to leave it till last. Went to DS39 where every particle had a dozen people around it cutting to the front. Finally got two (yes two) to spawn where I was the first one there and still got zero.
Four and a half hours for a mini game and couldn't do it. I have deleted a couple of toons so down to 5 which all need to run the game. That is not going to happen. I am NOT spending 20 - 30 hours just to run 5 mini-games that I should be able to run with all 5 each day in a couple of hours.
So, explain to me how this is a celebration of 5 years of programing.
I have been here since beta and a lifetime subscriber since pre-release and I do not see where this is much of a celebration unless it is celebrating years of buggy minigames.

Would have been so much easier. Instead someone had the bright idea to add a new minigame and not bother testing it. It's like the three stooges are in charge of development.
Never thought I would ever say this, but.......I do miss that one, at least it sort of worked
Come on Cryptic..
Heh, if you told me last year, I wouldn't believe it. But yes, I do.
Anyway, launching Elite Dangerous and instantly I feel so free. No grind, no one is forcing me to do anything...
Guess who closed it?
I expect this one will get the same treatment, despite the fact we were TOLD to discuss it here.
So, anyways, yeah. Wicked frustrating how it seems there was no real testing done on this before it went live. Are they really just trying to tick people off? I just don't get it. Broken Anniversary Game, Incomplete BOff Training System... Are there any major portions of this patch that are working as stated? Notice I didn't say Working as Intended, since I wonder more and more if he playerbase is just being trolled.
There's a saying about history, mistakes and learning that comes to mind.
They have a beta testing server for this very reason: TO TEST **** BEFORE THEY RELEASE IT.
Yeah, Cryptic? You know that little server you like to call "Tribble"? Why the HELL wasn't this tested on it?
I think it would have been glaringly obvious that the minigame isn't working, at least not in space.
The definition of insanity is doing the same thing over and over again and expecting a different result.
That was happening to me all this week BEFORE the anniversary patch.
What I did (because it's become such a headache) is used my in-game personal log to make detailed notes of which BOffs are in which slots (starship, shuttle, DOff department heads) so that when this inevitably occurs again I can look it up and re-slot them quickly without trying to remember which BOff I was using for what. Usually if I re-slot the correct BOffs on the first try, the toolbar goes right back to what it should (without having to move abilities around, it actually remembers to a point).
Just a suggestion...but it still sucks that it happens in the first place.
