One welcome side-effect of the endeavor system: bug acknowledgement

So, the current Endeavor is about rescuing ships in the Azure nebula, and it turns out the queue is broken, only respawning ships to rescue at only one place and veeeeeeery slowly.
And that's not the first Endeavor that can't be/can barely be completed due to a bug.

Since Endeavors are global to everyone of every faction and are about various parts of the game, including some neglected ones, that means more people to realize the devs screwed up and more incentive for them to fix the related bugs.

Though at this rate, I'd suggest them to add a button to each endeavor leading to a feedback box, kinda like what was made for the Foundry.

    I could have sworn they were spawning in a few different spots when I did it today, and we finished the Endeavor with a couple to spare. We didn't get enough for the second optional, though, and no 5 point ships.
    This is an MMO, not a Star Trek episode simulator. That would make for a terrible game.

    I played twice today. The first time we had ONE ship spawn. The second time we got 9. The mission also has rubberbanding. I played several other missions just now with no rubberbanding.

    I've been getting severe rubberbanding​ everywhere in the game for a week now

    Apart from a filthy leech I had no problem seeing enough ships to rescue. The rubber-banding was as bad as I've seen it in a long time, though.

    Out of 2 runs I barely completed the endeavor with 1 character and the 2nd run I was running with a fleet mate and we only had 6 spawn with 2 that we couldn't do anything with. Also to note there is a thread in the bug reports about it.

    Cool, another Endeavor I can skip, then!

    We had one of the spawns bug our run (no ship there but the beams were still holding something?) and the others were only dropping T1 ships so the actual optional objectives were impossible. Also a lag fest and it may be suffering from that lack of animation now present in the undone space bz? Ships just seemed to vanish once free not warp out.

    It took 2 attempts for me to complete the Endeavor. The first time, I was rubberbanding very badly. The NPCs spawned only once. The second time, the NPCs spawned everywhere else but where I stood. I feel like the spawning issue might have to do with ships sticking around area, which may prevent the NPCs from respawning. Either way, the Endeavor is definitely help bringing to light those bugs left unfixed by the Developers.

    I haven't played it myself yet, but since nobody is mentioning it, it seems they've finally fixed the weird NPC scaling then.

    NPCs were 10 levels below the player for a long time. Making the entire queue very boring.

    Today's Endeavor is bugged as well. Completed the first mission in the Solanae arc, phoned command, selected my reward, but the endeavor was not completed. Stupid, buggy systems... Fix the problems!
  • jslynjslyn Member Posts: 1,784 Arc User
    Yep. Today's did not work for me, either.

    Today's Endeavor description is a mess. https://arcgames.com/en/forums/startrekonline/#/discussion/1235247/endeavor-solanae-dyson-sphere-broken

    I didn't have any trouble with it. Ran "A Step Between Stars" and completed the Endeavor.

    The dyson sphere one worked fine for me as well.

    I think the only Solonae missions that worked for that Endeavor were Sphere of Influence, Step Between Stars and Surface Tension.
    Now a LTS and loving it.
    Just because you spend money on this game, it does not entitle you to be a jerk if things don't go your way.
    I have come to the conclusion that I have a memory like Etch-A-Sketch. I shake my head and forget everything. :D
  • ltminnsltminns Member Posts: 12,569 Arc User
    I ran 'Surface Tension' on a Character that had run that already (looks like it may have been the only one I ran in that Arc). The funny thing is I had none of the Traits or the Console on that Character, so I have no idea what I could have possibly picked as the Reward the first time around.

    That Episode is very good for leveling up Ship Masteries.

    Sphere of Influence doesn't complete the endeavour.

    It tells you the THREE Episodes in the Solanae Arc that are eligible for this Endeavor in the In-Progress Tab.
