Ok so I have been leveling up a new character working my way through the story arcs and I have now got to the last mission in the Borg arc "Fluid Dynamics" however it is totally unplayable for me as soon as I enter Fluidic space its all black cant see anything the game is still running fine my UI is still showing its just all black.

Ok as I was making this post I figured id try turning my graphics down so I turning everything right down to the Minimum which fixed the issue no more black screen in Fluidic space.

So to clarify running my game with everything on MAX setting's I get a black screen in Fluidic space.

Running everything turned right down the MIN settings its fine.

Before you ask turning lighting 2.0 off made no difference with my settings all set to MAX.

**EDIT 1**

So I started the mission with everything turned down, worked fine when it Fluidic space I wanted to see what would happen if I turned everything back the max settings and again it worked fine until I tried turning off the option "Cinematic Focus (Depth of field)" then everything on screen froze the game still running just froze, turn it back on games works fine.

**EDIT 2**

After further testing of entering this mission with Cinematic Focus on and off I have found this mission is totally unplayable as is the game becomes non functional with Cinematic Focus turned off.

    The same has happened to me, but on PS4. Instead of getting a black screen with UI still visible, the entire thing crashes out. My character is now unable to even log in because it tries to load me in directly into fluidic space. This bug's gotta get fixed. I had to create a new character now just to be able to play!

    I'm having the same problem. Except if I wait a few hours my character will load in the sol system when I turn it on. Is there any where to go to let them know what is going on?

    Had the same issue on PS4 as well, it also prevented me from logging back in for a very long time. The chat support agent who had to move my character back out to Sector Space submitted a bug report ticket with the error code I supplied.

    @trekonlinegame: Console captains: Best to skip the mission "Fluid Dynamics" for now. There's a technical issue, but we're working on a fix.
