Yes they were Female and I believe it was 2014. One was an Orion and one a Klingon. This was also the time that many Klingon/Orion females slotted swimwear could be worn on any map. Those slots were permanently borked. Those Characters can still wear swimwear anywhere (but mine don't).

I remember the swimwear thing! I, luckily, did not have the floater/legs disappearing thing at all, that year.
I don't care to wear swimwear off Risa, either.
I spent too much time getting together their uniforms for that.

Saw a epic "W-T-F?" glitch on Risa last night. Started the Biathlon when someone streaked in front of all of us running on the water. Yes, they out ran the hoverboards and beat us all to the flyer part.
Apparently his hoverboard didn't summon properly so his movement animation defaulted to running. Wish I could have recorded it, the blurr on him made him look like the Flash
Did you see the one where a player site-to-site transports out on the powerboard course, then reappears in the floater course going into the second to last ring ?
Ya, some peeps need to stroke their win-peen by whatever means possible, so I just change instances.
Summer is here on Risa, and there's another year of fun in the sun? What do you think of this year's Summer Event? Leave your feedback here.
Honestly, i don't care about the temporal artifacts thing. Its tedious. I wish you had replaced it with the Horga hunt, at least i get Eggs from that one.
The most fun activities remain dance and horga hunt, because they are not only engaging, but also feel like they are appropriately rewarding.
I really don't care for the races. I got my 1st place achievement for the Biathlon, so its not that i suck at them, i just don't enjoy them. I do them for the tags, so i can get Marks. That is really all i care for, since the event (summer and winter) give me the ability to get Marks without having to go through the tedious PUG PvE missions. I've always disliked them. I don't have the time to invest into a proper Guild, i just don't play regularily enough for that, and i really don't like being forced to do the PvE ques for the marks so the Summer and Winter event are idea for getting me marks.
The Temporarl Artifact Hunt is tedious as hell, especially since you have to be close to the ground to see the triangle to know which direction. You also have no indication as to distance. And then you get 50 lua marks for all the tedium. The thing should at least give you a box with marks or an item to upgrade your items or double the lua marks for how tedious it is. Heck, building sandcastles was tedious, and poorly rewarding, but that at least was more fun than these temporal artifacts. I'd place the hunt for temporal artifacts on the tedium scale about on par with the scanning of Omega Particles, but at least for the Omega Particles i get an item enhancement.
Horga Hunt also seems to be dropping less and less bird eggs. Used to be that i would get 3-4 of them per Hunt, now i don't even get one in 3 hunts. And i really have no desire to wait out an hour for the thing to return.
My ideal summer festival would do away with the shedule entirely. I would put an NPC for the Dance Mission next to the dance floor, put that mission on a 30 minute timer.
I'd put the Horga Hunt on a 30 minute timer. Sand Castle is still around, i would double the rewards for that... for all i care keep the temporal artifacts, but double the payout.
Keep the shedule for the Races, alternate between them. Add two more race tracks in the opposite direction.
Add a 1000 lua Mark reward to buy item upgrade boosters, let people buy 8 Monkey Research tags for 150 lua's just like the bird eggs.
And make the first mission every 20 hours give the Event Markers. This way people can not only pick the activties they enjoy the most, but also if i come on... and have say an hour.. i am not dependant on the shedule in the game.
I think giving the option to buy an item that can improve your items, would mean more people would want to be in there. You could even put it up to be bought with the race rewards. You could make the enhancement cost.. say 20 research tags. You'd have a good incentive for people to want to do the races.
If the item you get is the same as the one you get for the omega particles, i have no doubt the summer event would be packed.
And removing the shedule for the activities would make the event a bit more chill and relaxed. I don't have to sit there with a clock and be like "damn i missed horga hunt, welp guess no horga hunt for me today". I could just go do the thing i enjoy the most...
Oh and by the by... i'd do the same for the winter event.
I don't do the race, I've "finished" first before but had trouble hitting the button for the flag, don't know why you can just click on the flag, but I guess with latency you don't know where you are clicking. In any case, I came 4th in that race, I've never really cared again since then.
summer event is ok.....but since i missed too many days due to illness I will not have what i need for new ship. Which kind of sucks, I mean you get 40 vouchers for doing the flying thing which is fun but its onces a day you would need 25 days and since it ends on the 20 i missed 5 days. Oh well such is life. The Kobiashi Maru thing is ok I finally did it on one of my characters and got the weapon but now I have tried to do it on other toons and I never get the voucher. So I take it its 20 hr cool down per account. Again does not give you too much time to enjoy things. But all in all this is the first year I have joined in on the events. I have been in game from the beginning so i was more on leveling now I am more about exploring what sto has.

You can always get some vouchers for Lobi in the event rep store. It is pretty expensive, but depending on how many vouchers you'll miss, it can be worth it.

The Kobiashi Maru Weekend Event is an ACCOUNT Unlock. If you got the weapons on one Character, all other Characters on the Account can claim them from the Reclaim Tab in the Event Reputation Store.

I just sent one of those KDF Characters to Risa and equipped the Floater. It works but is still invisible in the Bikini Slot. In no other Outfit slot is it invisible. You do, however, see the thrust plume coming off the back of the Character. That slot is borked forever it would seem.

I wouldn't bother with it if you don't play on Risa or with your KDF characters, though. And mine are not using the two piece bikini...because: they are ugly.
I know the jets on the male floaters are borked....no matter what faction you are in.
I didn't know until Frtoaster told me about it. I only have the one male character, and I don't use that one enough. (Ferasan, fashioned after my crazy cat, of course).
But, now, when I DO use that character...I can not unsee the messed up jets.

One of my characters has it work weirdly, invisible floater and the jets seem to come from a point beneath her feet. She's wearing an Iconian variant.

Tbh kael it was lack luster loosing the night /day cycle really hurt the ambiance of risa, as for the newest even the biathalon it needs work like removing the speed buff right before the transistion to floater.
If the devs could fix the day/night cycle and the biathalon then you could get the ummer event back on par, as it is its just lacks the ambiance and alure that risa had in the past due to looing the atmospher and ambiance of the day/night cycle.

Boring...extremely boring and I'm doing it just out of boredom? Why was the dance off nerfed? By that I mean who needs a surfing race very 10 mins...overrated IMHO. Put back the dance off every 30 mins pls.
I know some dont like dancing but should be more balance. Also would be nice to create sandman or the salt vampires PvE on risa to battle them as we do in Winter event. There is no incentive to be on Risa and PvEs greatly needed.
as for the newest even the biathalon it needs work like removing the speed buff right before the transistion to floater.
It is completely useless, agreed, but it doesn't hurt, does it? Yes, you jump a little further, but with a jump stop it really isn't much of a difference, especially since it affects all the same.

I wouldn't call it a "nerf" if the event plays out the same just comes less often. But yeah, some rescheduling would be okay. And while I like the races most of the events (both of them) I agree that 4 of them on a 90 minute rotation is a lot. Then again, the two archeologic hunts take the most time.
And I for one am happy that there is absolutely no PvE on Risa - it is a welcome change once in a year, just relax, do what you feel like doing. I especially wouldn't want a snowman uprising alike event on Risa which is all over the place (although I love the snowman fighting in QWW), if any PvE at all, keep it to a specified location (though which one?). But as it is, almost everything in this game is PvE, and you can PvE your heart out even during the Risa event - just not on Risa itself. Something different every once in a while adds to the variety.

My ladies need some sneakers to wear on the sand with Risa outfits. Is there any way that option could be added in the future?
yep, or I'd love some peep toe wedge heels as well.
Definitely, for the dance floor and walking the boardwalk....
OOOo and how about some window shopping?
It would be nice to have a store front for clothing at the Promenade.
With a window display so we could see the swimsuits and summer clothes.
You know, like a real mall... they did one for the Powerboards, Birds and monkeys.
The tailor hanging out on the dock is...unfinished looking.
BUT...something I am missing is: playing with my Tropical Bird pet.
It was the only thing that was with me in my floater AND the power board.

Too bad Risa doesnt have a once daily powerboard or biathalon race after the summer event.
Would like it, but at what time? Would be late afternoon for one part of the world, midnight for another, so different people have very different odds of liking it. Also, I doubt too many people would go there regularily. Nice way of getting marks, but the competition would probably be lacking.
But yeah, Risa is always a nice respite, would be great to be able to use it if you felt like it.

In addition to the Summer Store Items being much more expensive than the Winter Store equivalents, here is another item to indicate as such. Training Manuals, regardless of level, are the same price in the Winter Store, whereas, in the the Summer Store Level 2 is 166% more expensive than Level 1 and Level 3 is 233% more expensive than Level 1 (300/500/700). The Winter Store Training Manuals are Lt/Lt Cmdr/Cmdr, whereas the Summer Store ones are Ensign/Lt/Lt Cmdr.

I like Planet Risa and come back every year, my crew takes a well earned rest, doing all the mission running,
But what happens when I do the high Flying get it up to 880 then 20 hours later after a far few kick outs From STO them finally gets back into the game and I see that I have not done any 0/1000, I put in a ticket, hope I get back so I can fly that new ship, all my crew mates are sweep staking for the best rooms,
All I know is that I stopped playing for a while (when they stopped supporting the Mac version), restarted on the PS4 last year, stopped playing for a while *again* when I started having weird issues with my TV, and then re-rejoined the game earlier this week, too late to get the ship. If only I'd come back a month earlier. Or even a week earlier.

At least on PC - and I would suspect it will be similar on consoles - you can slot and start (i. e. put at least 40 vouchers in it) the ship project and you will be able to finish it next year. You can then either start the probable new ship project after you finished this year's or use another character to run them in parallel. So up to now you are able to get any ship, even years later (somebody mentioned having finished a Nandi), as long as you get in at least one run in the year it starts.

The boff that was looking after the floater for him over the winter, has been executed for incompetence.
Fortunately, the Space Magic is so strong in him he can still fly just fine even with the thrusters pointing the wrong way.
