A Gorn Ate My C-Store Purchases!

So I got everything downloaded. It's been two years, right? I had to make a new toon made so I can experience all of the new from the ground up. But I'm not so enamored of the new that I didn't want to play with my Connie. It's the Connie. The ship that will never see top tiers despite being so SF iconic it make the Millennium Falcon look like lego.

Which wasn't available anymore when I got to the shipyard. Same with a number of other items I got for myself back in the day. Playable Federation Klingon? Joined Trill? NX? The game wanted me to pony up some Zen. Again.

Before you suggest I put in a ticket: Way ahead of you, partner! I look forward to the reply from the tireless support staff.

My question to the forum mob is this: Has this happened to anyone else and how did it get resolved for you?

    I was (Pretty sure the Playable races are consumed when you create said race, so if you buy and create a Fed Klingon, if you want another, you need to pay again) but it looks like I was wrong?

    Not sure about the Connie, but the C-Store doesn't show that I own the NX because I bought it as part of a bundle, so I can get it on new toons by reclaiming the bundle. Hope this helps.

    Also, I believe is the Klingons who introduced all the ridiculous things to eat, so if you want to blame it on someone consuming stuff, I'd go for a Klingon. I think the Gorn are a bit more discerning.

    There have been some issues with the races that you can purchase through the C-store. The developers know about those issues and have been working to correct them. Until they are fixed, they have pulled them down as selectable options. This does mit affect already created characters... Just new ones.

    Have you checked if you can reclaim these ships in the store?

    As for the races, as was mentioned here they are bugged for new character creation. However, once you do buy them you can make more without additional cost.

    C-Store Boffs are one-a-purchase. Playable races don't get consumed. For example, I've gotten Joined Trills a good while ago. That allowed me to create two or three Joined Trill chars and I could make any amount more. BUT, C-Store unlocked species got recently bugged and unavailable. I thought it had gotten fixed, but maybe it didn't just yet.

    As for the Connie, it afaik isn't part of a bundle like the NX. So if once unlocked, it should be available for reclaiming.

    I'd have to ask, twg042370, whether you're sure you're looking for those C-Store items on the right account. And no, I don't have knowledge about the disappearance of all previous C-Store purchases.
    TOIVA, Toi Vaxx, Toia Vix, Toveg, T'vritha, To Vrax: Bring in the Allegiance class.
    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!

    This is my only account that I recall. Though I might have made another one way back when. Hmm... I wonder if I have some info about that somewhere?

    Thanks folks

    1) some c store playable aliens are not available for, newly created toons right now. It is a known issue (has been for a while) but frustratingly no fix yet.
    2) If you had a ship via a bundle, you may need to reclaim the whole bundle instead of the single ship. That happened with me recently when we all got the free NX bundle. I couldn't just claim the ship alone; had to claim the NX bundle even though I didn't want everything at that time.

    Yeah the problem with the NX, is that it gets unlocked after purchase of the Enterprise Era Bundle but they never change the standalone version to Available and leave it as 500 Zen.

    If you purchase the Legacy of Romulus Expansion or Delta Expansion, all Ships contained therein are unlocked in the Store.

    A stupid oversight for the NX, I had posted in the Bug Report Forum about this.

    Only a week or so ago, the C-Store species were bugged (ALL of them), and were temporarily removed. Seems the fix was not finished after all.


    As for the ship being taken away, I have never heard of such a thing happening.
    I completed a 2-man CSE, ISE, and KASE, Optionals included. And I soloed Winter Invasion.

    Wait wait wait wait.......

    The NX registry is unlocked with the Enterprise bundle??? Are you absolutely positively 100% undeniably sure my friends????

    Because when they gave the Enterprise bundle away awhile ago i specifically checked to see if it was selectable when changing my fed ship name/registry and it was not available. And in the Cstore, legacy tab i think its called (the last one), it appears there but for sale and is not claimed or free.

    I know it was a part of the Digital Deluxe edition, is that what your refering to? Or maybe your referring to the NX class enterprise?

    Lil' help please. I would like the NX registry

    It is not included. You'll have to fork over the 100 (I think) Zen for it. I did it, and after 3 years still no regrets. But then 100 zen today is 23000 dilithium, so 1 day of work only on a standard 3-char account.

    Yeah, not the NX Registry, the NX starship.

    I've gone through my email a bit and the earliest email I have from Cryptic about STO is months after I'm certain I started playing the game. This makes me think that maybe Toiva was right and the c-store stuff was on a different account. (This one started as my Champions Online account)

    Whatever that account was, the email address is long lost to the depths of spacetime so I'll never be able to find out for sure. It was all just cosmetics anyway so I'm not worried about it.
