(xbox1) Second Wave Main story mission

thanatos1113

Here is a copy of the data presented to support. Below that is the support response

I will present it again here in a better format, even though I also sent an e-mail. Realize this means the MAIN STORY itself is broken and cannot be properly finished for 2 of the three major factions. And am I supposed to waste my time discovering that the third faction has the same problem? Sorry about your luck responses aren't appropriate in this case, and I am finding nothing in the news or the forums about this particular Mission despite it being a "known" issue

Mission "second wave"

With Romulan tactical captain allied to federation
Cannot complete mission properly for multiple reasons
1: Diplomacy and Maurader skills not available on console release so unable to convince factions to join anti borg alliance by skill
2: "OPTIONAL" side missions required as THE ONLY ALTERNATE METHOD do not work
A: "optional quest" diplomatic distractions cannot complete as captain Va'kel Shon won't buy the self sealing stem bolts as he is supposed to
B: "optional quest" crew assignments cannot be started as captain Va'kel Shon doesn't seem to recognize you as federation ally

With Federation Science captain
Cannot complete mission properly for almost exactly the same reasons
1: diplomacy and maurader skills not available on console
2: "OPTIONAL" side missions cannot complete
A: exact same reason as with romulan
B: too busy bragging about how facing borg gives him and you a better perspective than diplomats to launch quest

I can get over the turn rate bug. I can get over the Wardrobe issues. I cannot get over a broken main story line on a game. If I wanted PVP I'd be playing World of Tanks or Warframe, they have less bugs.

P.S: I finally found more posts on the second Wave Mission in the Forum by searching the archives. This Mission has been broken for 4 years. WTF. Asking for developers to ban my account and refund all of my money

In response to my request for a refund, I was informed they could not, because the zen was purchased from xbox. Arc did not offer to refund my zen, would have been ok with that. They gave me a sorry about your luck, now scram response. Thanks be that I have really good standing with microsoft, because their normal policy in these 3rd party currency cases is also, "sorry about your luck." I have to say that if you very politely report your issue to support, and very politely ask if they could help, they might. You must have a good rep, you must have a good history with support(if you have a history of being a whiney brat or being abusive might as well forget it). So, now I have my money back, and I say to Arc and PWE/Cryptic, "Sorry about your luck." If enough people complain to microsoft support about the game(and remember you get better results with the carrot and not the stick), they will have to do something about it. This is a better option than the "class action" some players think they will start.

also, the "science profession objective cannot be completed while escorting deligates to hangar bay. Played this quest today with my federation Romulan science captain, and both the "injured security officer" I'm supposed to help, and the map waypoint to their location are missing entirely, making the objective a 100% fail. PLEASE FIX.

he is behind some tables just past the tactical option, doesn't show on the map. also, I haven't been able to just hit A to activate him, I had to go into the captain commands to do it. hope that helps
