    Can confirm. Both the in-game's event info and the event calendar say that the anniversary event is supposed to end tomorrow at 20:00, but Q is nowhere to be found in the Earth Spacedock

    Was very diligent to schedule my time as to not miss the event disappointed it ended early... what happened?
  • jaguarskxjaguarskx Member Posts: 5,945 Arc User
    It could be a typo.

    The event officially ends on the 16th according to the link below. Did the console experience any unusual downtime where Cryptic announced the Anniversary Event was going to be extended by 1 day?

    I see, the console version clearly says March 17 though, so hopefully they can give everyone an extra 40 anniversary vouchers to make up for the lost day. After the 400 credits you get from Echos of Light that still leaves another 600 vouchers to go... so that's what, 15 times, once per day you have to complete Q's missions... that's a lot of time invested. Now, with only 40 vouchers to go its pretty disappointing to have a typo cause me to miss out.

    If the voucher boxes are still in the lobo store you can buy and open them to get the last 40. Otherwise you're screwed.

    I'm not a console player but I have to agree...as not many people check the website (Heck even the devs don't much...like to post on reddit and twitter more than here) if it has said the 17th the whole time and they didn't fix it this is kind on them.

    Granted assuming it's like the pc version you have more than enough time :p but if it said the 17th it should be to the 17th.

    Thanks for the tip! I didn't know about the lobi but was able to open enough Tap Shiar Lock boxes to collect the anniversary reward! Thank you!

    The Time was extended by one day from the 16th to the 17th due to Extended maintenance a few weeks ago. That is why it showed as ending on the 17th, but apparently the devs didn't program it for that extra day. It wasn't a typo, it was announced in a patch note located here http://www.arcgames.com/en/games/playstation/star-trek-online/news/detail/10405663-playstation-4-patch-notes-for-2/20

    Someone needs to make a report on the BUG REPORTS-Xbox or PS4 area, not here in General Discussion, they may actually SEE it over there....

    Right now, General Discussion is a mess with the PC balance changes.

    Hey guys - as you may have expected, the in game calendar is not correct, and the anniversary was always meant to end today, as it stated in the blog. Apologies for the confusion.
  • cybersport2011cybersport2011 Member Posts: 2 New User
    I got screwed too. 960 out of 1000 collected. I'm done playing STO for a while. That really ticked me off!!! Tell me I have time to finish but no!

    However, according the following PS4 patch notes from February 21st, the event is stated to be extended by 1 day (from March 16th to March 17th).

    Wow denying the truth

    You are very good at lying Kael, especially when the patch notes state otherwise

    if I am not mistaken that post was written on February 20th that's 6 days after this link http://www.arcgames.com/en/games/playstation/star-trek-online/news/detail/10380393-anniversary-on-xbox-one-and-playstation-4!

    Your team needs to do better about updating the calendar to the correct dates *and* ensuring the events run as long as they need to. Being on consoles and supposedly unable to update as often as you need is becoming an excuse for leaving shoddy work in the console version of the game.

    I also honestly don't think you're checking for what's already been said before posting your reasons why something is the way it is. You can't be posting this haphazardly as our Community Manager.

    Give us compensation or the extend the Anniversary event. We have missed the 16th and 17th. You owe us and you need to take responsibility for your mess ups, that is what a adult does

    Wow, some entitled stupidity here.

    I'm generally one to complain about console players presence ... pretty much every time they show up. However, on this topic they do have a point, as it was specifically stated in a patch that the event was being extended by 1 day.

    You can seriously read this thread & the idiotic demands for "compensation" by people who should have finished the ship 2 weeks ago like I did on my kids console account & not just facepalm?

    While I, too, would not have waited until the last minute to finish, I do recognize that some people aren't able to get it done as quickly due to real world responsibilities, and the fact is a one day extension was announced. Now, if Q had disappeared tomorrow as suggested by the extension, and a thread like this was created at that time, it would be a whole different story and I'd be posting pictures of musicians playing the violin in response

    yikes that's shoddy. if you didn't get the ship due to real life responsibilities. and where relaying on the extended one day.

    I would email support with the link that states it was supposed to end on the 17th

    No, you did not miss the 16th and the 17th. Events typically end at 10am PST on the day it is supposed to end... unless of course you can prove that Q disappeared before 10am PST on the 16th. Therefore, PS4 players only lost one day because the event was not extended by 1 day per the patch notes on Feb. 21st.

    I think Cryptic should patch the game where PS4 players who still have the Anniversary Event project slotted will be able to simply go to the Lobi Store to do a one time claim of 40 anniversary vouchers for the shortened event.

    Hey guys,

    I misspoke earlier - I posted without having all the information, and that's on me. I apologize.

    The event WAS meant to end this morning, which means you guys lost a whole day. To make up for that, we're granting all Captains on PS4 and Xbox One 40 vouchers in a future update.
