in PC Gameplay Bug Reports
So, "Bonus Mark Weekend" event according to all sources was scheduled to begin on 13 Feb, at 11am. How's that working out for yah .,.,., because for me, I played a little on the evening of the 13th, and well into the morning of the 14th, until about 4am and received nothing other than normal from TFOs.

Submitted a 'TT' ISO same; however, just making you aware of the issue here too IOT show some Love on V-Day! :)

    It doesn't work on the bonus mark box from random queues, only on the primary reward. There's no indication that it's working, you just get something like 100-150 from most instead of the usual 50-90.

    Wrong, according to this "Bonus Marks Weekend!", the advertisement specifically states: "this bonus is available for all content that reward marks..."

    Bonus Marks Weekend!

    Certain Mark-boxes don't award bonus marks, but they almost always state in the tooltip if they don't benefit from the bonus.
    The prime example would be the boxes from any of the various recruit events that have run in the past.

    Generally anything you can earn outside of the event and then claim during. The core rewards are increased, the bonuses are not.

    You do not get marks for bonus rewards, only for the Marks awarded as part of the Main reward for that mission. This has always been the case.

    Presuming absolution(s) from a couple of you contradict what I've been rewarded from previous events such as this; otherwise, I wouldn't had wasted my time raising the issue. Also, even if some of you are right in assuming the methods for the bonus mark rewarding ~ your assumption and my issue both are contradictory to STO's advertising message in support of this event where it specifically indicates, "this bonus is available for all content that rewards marks..."

    Note: It doesn't say normal content only nor does it specify only for Marks awarded as part of a Main reward for a mission.

    Lastly, my point is clear and I'm sorry some of you are unable or unwilling to understand what I've tried to convey regarding this matter. Bottom line, either reword the event advertisement IOT alleviate the misunderstanding & say what you mean / mean what you say, or reward everyone for all content that rewards marks as it currently states.

    It's not Rocket Science.

    The RTFO Bonus Rewards are not and never have been eligible for the Bonus Marks weekends, same with the Bonus Marks awarded for hitting T5 in a Rep. The RTFO boxes are already a bonus reward for choosing to play a random queue. Asking for a bonus on top of a bonus is a bit entitled. They are not going to change this because you are unwilling to accept that RTFO boxes do not count.

    Boy you're a trip! Do you just post to see yourself post ~ because why you talking about RTFOs as part of this issue I've addressed? At what point in this thread was this issue ever associated with RTFOs? You see because now I'm beginning to think it's "Trollers" like you who apparently like to jump on threads such as this presenting a viable concern & possible issue and twist an entirely new narrative facilitating a potential irrelevance causing Cryptic to blow this off entirely.

    Anyways, my issue has been resolved so NAFR! ::Dueces::

    Well, we're trying to figure out what you're posting about, because the standard rewards are definitely working from queues and open zones as multiple people have confirmed and has been discussed elsewhere in the forum.

    The boxes were never included and it's even noted in the tooltip, which is the part you took objection to in your last two posts.
