    I've noticed that if the Heralds vanish, you can wait for a couple minutes. They'll come running in from the entrance to the room. I think somehow the game is throwing them back to the beginning of the map, and they have to run back to you the long way.

    It's nice to know that no matter how advanced they are, or how they are able to come and go as they please, that sometimes they have to get around like the rest of us :blush:

    if you goto the room with 4 consoles you only can activate 3 consoles but the iconian doesn't come.

    Really? I just did the mission and didn't have any trouble activating all 4 consoles and defeating M'Tara.

    (ground)1 room before you get the 4 consoles, if you put mines on the ground and she spawn on the mines you can't activate console 2.
    Did you put mines on the ground before she spawned and then did she spawned on the mines ???
    Don't quote me out of context.

    I actually think the bug ties into the order you activate the consoles in. I could be wrong about that but I THINK it's either caused because of a broken link when you activate them in the wrong order or something that pushes one of the reinforcement enemies through the floor/wall, blocking the next step from opening up.

    Possibly could be an issue with order, but I've deliberately tried to change which consoles I chose during my runs. I'm sure I haven't tried every combination, but it would be weird as heck if that was it. I haven't had any major issues so far.

    I'm glad to see this FE doesn't suffer from the bug with the weekly rewards not resetting on Thursday.

    Quite enjoyed the mission.

    Opening the Reactive Armor Catalysts Pack did not add the Armor Catalyst crafting option in the Engeneering R&D. Just sayin'

    A possible fix to the annoying respawn mob would be to maybe have the enemies target some of the other Bridge officers instead of just homing in on the captain always.

    This has always been a problem in this game.

    Probably because you as the captain generate a lot more offence, and the AI is setup to target the guy that is capable of doing the most damage to them.

    Enormous difference between lying to/tricking the Romulans - which was Sisko's intent, not murdering Vreenak - and genocide of an entire species, isn't it?
    ​​

    Potato, po-tah-to. One could argue semantics til they're blue in the face.

    Point is. There's a threat that exists with little to no chance of peaceful cohabitation. We have only one choice, even if it means going against our ideals.

    Assuming that's all you can do with the time ship--and I'm not convinced it is the only thing. If we can use it to scramble some Iconian brains without killing them or erasing them from the timeline entirely, that might be doable (remember that Annorax could beam people through his temporal shielding), that might be one way to do it.

    Also, a less disgusting option than genocide--though still not a great one (and one I would only consider if the option above fails)--would be to remove a certain troublemaking individual from the timeline: J'mpok. Eliminate him, and potentially the Undine infiltration matter is solved peacefully by Martok or an ideological successor of his (Worf?) without forcing the Federation into a war that helps destabilize the quadrant. Also, with the Federation an active part of the solution instead of responding with understandable anger at what would look to them like a BS excuse for a war just like 2372 (remember the Klingons' invasion of Cardassia on FALSE claims of Dominion infiltration--which directly led to giving the Dominion a beachhead in the Alpha Quadrant!), their full diplomatic faculties could be engaged, and we might well HAVE the chance to talk the Undine--and their firepower--onto our side.

    Boy, that is a fantastic idea that will absolutely never happen. Cryptic seems perfectly content to let the Klingons be Karma Houdinis.

    WOW! So what's the the final reward for “Broken Circle" ground or space item?

    Space. From the description it is similar to the nimbus distress call, but with DQ ships.

    As for this week's reward, is this module aimed at ground PVP because i don't see any other applications.

    This program, though reasonably normal at times, seems to have a strong affinity to classes belonging to the Cat 2.0 program. Questerius 2.7 will break down on occasion, resulting in garbage and nonsense messages whenever it occurs. Usually a hard reboot or pulling the plug solves the problem when that happens.

    I have had enemies spawn behind the wall, which caused the second console to not be available to activate because I couldn't kill the enemies. I had to restart the entire mission, which is boring and repetative enough as it is.

    I have never had to re-start the entire mission, just from the beam in point. Still kind of a pain, but not as much of a pain. If the game ask you to pick Safe Mode, skip that one on the first try getting back in to any mission. If it jams you up on 2 or more tries, start from safe mode or drop a Miss and begin as if new.

    Skipping Safe Mode has worked for me nearly every time a mission gets cranky.

    I wasn't going to take the chance of that causing the same to happen. If it had done it again from starting over, I would have just given up on ever doing the mission.

    That's a regular mission reward I think.

    jam subspace transmissions is about as useful as a chocolate kettle, doesn't seem to work against iconians or heralds. an utter waste of time choosing this as a reward
  • tinyfistedtinyfisted Member Posts: 193 Arc User
    I quite liked this mission. I didn't like that Paris and Korim were put in charge of it. "Yeah, we're losing this war, so instead of waiting the week it'll take to have a fighting chance, let's try a full frontal assault on their strongest point!" *slow measured clap* Brilliant, boys. Brilliant.

    Besides. All of that is not how you defeat Iconians. With Krenim tech, shift them into the broken moment where the Krenim have been hiding, then out again. The Iconians can't survive time travel with intact minds. So shove them forward in time a quarter moment, then shoot 'em in the face, a lot, while they're busy drooling. War over, and no significant ramifications to the timeline.

    I feel like the intention was 'okay, we have a temporal thing that might work but isn't, so let's do one last try to win this conventionally first'. But it didn't quite come through the dialog properly.

    It would be nice if the spec point reward reset when the new weekly doodad became available. I saw the reinforcement beacon was available this morning and ran the mission, but didn't get the spec point. I would have just waited til tomorrow.

    So what's the word on the new distress call? Can it be activated in your inventory just like the Nimbus Distress Call?

    Interesting suggestion and ive no doubt it would work, but you are forgetting with whom you are dealing , now cryptic cant go off and end the war without milking us players, for every possible dime they can milk and squeeze from out wallets.

    Now can they after all thier chinese overloard would not stand for it now would they.....now hang you head i shame :D

    Good, now we can see what the next FE will bring. I usually wait until they get done releasing the rewards per week. So when I go through it. It will be 1 time per character, unless the rewards are worth it.

    Nice! I'm definitely going to pick this up for all my toons. It'll probably take 5 hours but it's well worth it. Thanks!

    Unfortunately it puts your Nimbus Pirate Distress Call on 15 minute CD so it's basically just a visual choice. :(
