    It's also enabled there, and I've never checked that page before so it must have been enabled since... well since I created this account three or four years ago.

    Okay, hold on...

    Is it an email, or is it something that was at the bottom of the "Artifacts" launch announcement?

    Can anyone who actually got the email let us that haven't gotten it know what it says please? There seems to be some confusion that could easily be cleared up with that.
  • jcswwjcsww Member Posts: 6,821 Arc User
    Yep, same here: 'Please input valid code' with the code copied directly from the email they sent.

    That is exactly what I get as well. )=

    it is an email... big graphic type like they love so much... doesn't say much of anything except 'NOW LIVE' and click below to get goodies... then goes on to remind us about the sphere builder lockbox ships

    Well when i checked the blog just after the server came back up there was a promo at the bottom of this page:

    http://www.arcgames.com/en/games/star-trek-online/news/detail/10225563

    And i was able to redeem the code shown there through a link in the code text itself.
    Clearly that page has been changed since that time. I have no idea what the email thing is about as I've not received such a message and I've checked and all my options are turned on.

    It was on *both* the bottom of the blog post, and in an email, that gave the same code of "6rS0U3ES", as well as attached to the FB post this morning about the release.

    The email stated "Redeem the code below and receive: 1 R&D Pack, 1 Fed/KDF Doff pack, and 1 Large XP Boost", with the code stated as having an expiration date of "11.01.2016", which was also stated on the bottom of the blog post, before being edited out.

    Thanks, Midnite, for your attention to this; hopefully we can get an update soon!

    Ridiculous.. almost everything has a micro-transaction (most not-so-micro) and when they give something away for free they TRIBBLE it up so spectacularly that unless I another issue (can't equip any kits) *AND* come to the forums I would never have known about it. No email, no code anywhere that I can see. It feels like they're trying to make his difficult.
  • phenomenaut01phenomenaut01 Member Posts: 714 Arc User

    it is an email...

    Thanks for the confirmation on that. Much appreciated.

    ... big graphic type like they love so much...

    Sadly, I've never seen one. :(

    THANK YOU SO MUCH!!!

    Sorry for shouting...but would it have killed the OP to include that info the first post? Knowing it's basic worthless junk would have saved a lot of people (myself included) from getting a bit huffy about the whole thing. Not that I'm not still peeved off that I never get the emails...but at least I know this is something that I could live without if I missed out on it.

    Thanks again!

    Calm down. They're giving away enough things and you don't have to pay for anything if you don't want to.

    I do agree though that they need to better think things through with promotions though. So far most of them have only made people angry because many were excluded without any good reason given as to why.

    It's both. The code was in the launch announcement before, but has been now removed. It was also emailed to people. There isn't any extra info in the email, just "redeem this code to receive <list of items>" and that it expires 11.01.2016.

    I can confirm the code in the launch announcement did work when it was up, I entered it and got the stuff. Presumably it was the same one as the email, but I can't remember for sure.

    Yep, np! Although, I'd disagree with it being 'worthless junk': my AoY toon could certainly use the R&D pack *and* the Doff pack! :)

    Got the email Tue, Oct 25, 2016 at 12:25 PM and its DOA today.
    Positive thoughts.

    I am perfectly calm. Apparently TRIBBLE is a bad word.

    the code i got is very bad :O doesnt work and says it expired
    date of expiry is 11.01.16 ...
  • tigerariestigeraries Member Posts: 3,492 Arc User
    used it this morning... seems they edited the post to remove the code. there was probably a bug with it... maybe unlimited use? and not one per account. maybe someone spammed the code like 100 times or more and they caught on and killed code for now.

    That's certainly a possibility as to why it was edited out of the blog and FB post...I hate this forum not having a damn Dev Tracker, so it looks like there has been no response outside of a mod...
  • bobbydazlersbobbydazlers Member Posts: 4,534 Arc User
    I had the same problem, I raised a ticket and got the explanation for the code not working I will not quote the response but only say I wasn't very happy with it.

    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.

    Some folks also saw it posted by the devs on Facebook, and it was carried over to Reddit by STOBot. It was pretty much being "spammed across all channels" (though, in this case, by the dev team), so it might've been hurriedly modified; such things have happened before without good internal communication, making it harder on those dealing with us directly.

    Also, @midniteshadow7, Support appears inaccessible (at least for me) to report the issue, both within the Arc Browser and via internet login. Thank you for looking into the code issue for us, it's appreciated.

    Code worked for me just fine a few hours ago. R&D pack, 10,000 XP boost, and a Doff pack, all once per acct so choose carefully.

    Glad I'm not the only one who cannot access support. Chrome says infinite loop error, other browser just simply says cannot load page. Happens as soon as you click on support and login. Thus how I ended up here in forums.

    Hopefully they simply email us a new (and working) code. I cannot say I feel like hanging around forums to see when fixed to 'try again'.

    Safe flying all! :smile:
