    Resolved an issue that was causing “Uneasy Allies” to reward kit frames at Epic quality.
    They will now be awarded at Very rare quality.
    Existing kit frames will not be affected.

    Does this fix mean that something has also been done regarding the locked-out low level kit frames?

    Can you explain this change please? Will we lose any items that have expired?

    Old mail sent by the Exchange to the player’s mail inbox will be removed upon logging in.

    The deletion is for old or read exchange mail that does not contain items. You do not run the risk of losing items.

    What counts as "Old mail" from the Exchange? How old is old? Will this removal delete all "Old mail", or are Exchange messages that have items attached safe from deletion?

    Edit: Thanks crypticspartan, for the explanation. I must have hit submit just after you did.

    The following issues are also fixed in the console patch, and I can ask about more if they come up:

    • The issue preventing many items, especially from sets, being upgraded.
    • Romulan characters not being able to spend skill or specialization points
    • The issue causing characters or enemies to be invisible after cutscenes
    • The Turn rate bug.

    Edit: This is the PC thread still. Those fixes mentioned are for console (as the issues do not currently exist on PC).

    Are you guys also looking into characters that are unable to equipped their kits because of an "invisible" item that is stuck in the kit slot, I have been unable to equip any kits for almost a month now due to that issue.
  • whamhammer1whamhammer1 Member Posts: 2,290 Arc User
    I wish Cryptic would fix the fact that my Command Assualt Cruiser code isn't being accepted by the game, even after dloading the Arc launcher, and properly typing the code!

    How about word one what you guys broke with Lighting 2.0 that causing some systems to crash when changing maps? I haven't been able to complete a single mission since this change as when changing maps from space to ground or ground to space I will sometimes crash, then when I get back in the mission has restarted!

    Turn rate bug does exist on PC, hope you will fix it too:

    Will... turn... rate... bug... be... fixed?
    Figured I'd break it down for you simpletons.

    42 days.
    Keep messing with us clowns.

    Your game is "Free to download" tired of you developers hiding behind the label of "Free to play" label these days to legally excuse your incompetence and laziness. If your game was F2P then how are you able to sell Lifetime Subscriptions?

    Get no pity on console, and @LaughingTrendy has already given the impression that someone royally screwed up the 15th, so how about a damn apology?

    Do us a favor and sell the rights of STO to a better company, perhaps Bethesda. Watch how much caring publishers and developers make off of a franchise game.

    MMOTANK will always get my money over yall.

    I really wouldn't sell it off to Bethesda because of how they keep dumbing down their well known game series sequels from RPG's to Action-Adventure's.

    How about fixing my still blacked out items in my mail. There is no reason to remove old mails sent by the Exchange.

    Unbelievable changes, while there are still so many problems and bugs in the game who need attention.

    The old mail still being in the system could be causing other problems - Companies don't tend to make changes like this for no reason.
  • totenmettotenmet Member Posts: 592 Arc User
    I am not happy at all that mail items get deleted without my approval.

    In case storage space is an issue on the Cryptic Servers, an option to store mail locally on the customers PC should be an option for paying customers at least.

    Whether you can play the game isn't important. That's why it takes so long. On the other hand, the possibility you might get an epic quality kit without having to grind for it is a top priority bug to fix.
  • tomoyo247478tomoyo247478 Member Posts: 1 Arc User
    Utterly disgusted by the sloppy fixes and the many days of delays to just resolve some simple yet critical issues, e.g. (kits unable to be equipped, turn rate bug, outfits unable to be equipped after purchase), for your info, there are many people who used their hard earned money on this game, and yet have to put up with this kind of bugs and sloppy & slow support, this is not the way to conduct business, customers are not satisfied and complained and the crisis management is not competent to resolve it efficiently. if STO going to run in the long term, you(developers) have seriously need to do something about your team and the way they handle a crisis.

    The deletion is for old or read exchange mail that does not contain items. You do not run the risk of losing items.

    Thanks for clarification :)
    Also, did you take a closer look at this problem?

    So are two maintenances per week the new rule? Because the one of Tuesday wasn't announced as an extraordinary one, it was Arc maintenance either, nor did it fix anything absolutely crucial, and yet we have another one today?
    Yes I know it's Thursday, but "ordinary" maintenance Tuesday usually mean no patch Thursday, so what gives? Or did they just mix up pc and console or something?

    Not a rant or a complaint, just a question because I'm rather puzzled right now.
    Logic is the beginning of wisdom, not the end of it.
