    Congratulations! I still love the game as much as I did years ago when I first started.

    Two years already? Thanks for being here, you field this peanut gallery pretty well!

    I just sent a link of this to several of my RL friends. Every Anniversary I remind them that this game is here and every year I get back crickets. Maybe this year they will finally join.

    Not until it's green-lighted. This is an MS/Sony issue, not Cryptic's. The announcement will be made on the web and social media.

    The few times I bother wanting to get back in the game and the launcher is taking an eternity to patch. And no, it's not my connection, everything on my end works just fine.

    That's because there are thousands downloading at a time. Speeds are always slower. It's not like they have TB's of bandwidth available.

    Two years? Wow... and you had some pretty big shoes to fill after Trendy.

    Anyways... congrats on 8 years. Hope this game continues on for many more.

    Welcome to day one of an event. The Patch Server Hamsters are really earning their food today.

    i have played every year... every event but even i have never known it to be this slow. i appreciate the level of traffic increase for this but surly temp increase in there bandwidth wouldn't hurt.
  • zedbrightlander1zedbrightlander1 Member Posts: 14,782 Arc User
    Still at 90.7% . Good thing you guys decided to start the Anniversary on Tuesday and not Thursday.

    Smart move. :p

    Is the daily busted? I got one with 3 ground locations, none of which display those things for the mini-game.

    Check the mission markers on the mini-map - the omega molecules only spawn in those marked areas. (And the areas change over time.)

    This game won't last 6 months after launch.​​

    Congrats on the two years

    Anniversary has a very familiar feel after my first omega scan got hit by the bug that stops it seconds after starting.

    I've enjoyed this game for what seems like many years, but I know it isn't as long as some of you. I'm still enjoying it. It took my little laptop three hours to patch, then got to do the mission with Jhanell and the Q-game before I got a ten minute warning that the server was being restarted. So will take Lilly through later this evening.

    Kael, you've done a superb job filling Trendy's shoes, hope you stick around for another year or three :)
    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

    8 years, that's one heck of a milestone.

    Congratulations!

    I started playing in the summer of 2010 and I can't imagine leaving anymore. :p

    It has nothing to do with MS/Sony. The STO devs obviously taking on too much along with this Anniversary event that they have not had time to deal with console. The PC version was borked day one, had slow/huge download, and patches to fix things keep breaking more things.

    The Anniversary even is not showing up in the event calender forJan or Feb, and will be pointless after Feb, it will be like celebrating Christmas inFeb when others will be celebrating Valentines day!. The console anniversary has been cancelled this year or moved to September when it released on consoles.
