    Are you guys going to put on burst resources to handle the load of additional players ingame, or are we looking at two weeks of rubber banding and lag? (as is usually the case with new content drops)

    I'm sorry, it's all my captain's fault for the temporal mess we found ourselves in. :'(

    I'm surprised this story gets its continuation only just now, given that quite a few other arcs and events have taken place in-between.

    It's a nice angle for the next story though, and based on discussions a couple of years ago I'm pretty sure it's going to be appreciated by many players.
    Hopefully this is the first of many returns to older events and content, where we try to set things right with former enemies.

    I'll probably have to update or change a few bio's of my characters though, given that some of them led or took part in the resistance against the temporal agents... :)

    A conflict ensues with the Tholians, who reveal that constant use of time and dimensional travel has caused these vortices
    Not seeing how that has anything to do with the ending of the terran arc, nor the borg, nor whatever new race that was said to be involved

    That said, I second doing some kind of server prep work to handle additional player load, its not a good look to have the servers inevitably crash a couple hours after launch and everything lag out for a week or two after

    I feel like TOS Captains didn't do anything wrong, TLF started it and Daniels just drafted them into their Temporal Shenanigans, TOS Captains are just as much as victims as everyone else.

    The Enterprise F looks great in the video, and extra nice to hear Captain Shon do the lines for space the final frontier.
    Glad we finally get to adventure alongside him and his crew again.
    Looking forward to this next story arc, Thanks cryptic.

    Glad you took the blame on that one, or else fingers may have been pointed my way. lol

    I forgot what precisely was said (perhaps I don't WANT to remember) during that mission their sun got snuffed out as its been long time since I played it, but I remember agreeing with others that it was annoying how incredibly stupid that mission made our captains out to be running their gator mouth to the Nakuhl about the tox thingy so they hate us.

    I hope something like this doesn't happen again... And that prior dialogue is also eventually retconned it was sooo bad really. Golden rule of mission design, don't ever make our captain look like a total simpleton, especially when being one starts wars!

    Anyway, hopefully that isn't going to happen again, and I look forward to seeing where this goes otherwise!

    Constantly dimension-travelling-for-any-possible-reason giant spooders who open rifts to the Mirror Universe when they blow up say what now?

    AOY does add more Context to that mission, the Sun getting snuffed out is a result of a Bootstrap paradox that the Na'Kulh started,

    1. The Na'Kulh goes back in time to TRIBBLE off the Tholians,

    2. The Tholians get revenge by snuffing out the Na'Kulh's sun

    3. The Na'Kulh repeats step 1, which in turn causes the Tholians to repeat step 2. over and over again in a never ending loop.

    The new Odyssey model looks good.

    I just hope that the other varieties - and especially the legendary one - will be updated too.

    Does this mean AOY captains can finally go home? I miss that purple map.
    Regarding the Enterprise-F, what bearing does the series finale of Picard have on the continuity of STO and the fate of our Va'Kel Shon?

    I might've had a hand in creating the Temporal Mess in the Console Universe, Temporal Agent Spock reporting for duty.

    If we never bult the Annorax and fouled up the timeline AND never build the Tox Utat for the tholians to steal, maybee none of this would be hapening :).

    We never built the Tox Uthat, Kal Dano was the only one who had a hand in building it.

    We never built the Tox Uthat, Kal Dano was the only one who had a hand in building it.

    And Daniels insisted that things should play out the way they did. It had to be stolen, Dano had to be killed etc.

    And, I must add, the Lukari also benefitted from this. They wouldn't have become a part of the interstellar community (or, at least, not at that time yet) if the whole Tox Uthat thing hadn't been invented.

    Kal Dano himself likely wouldn't have been born either, since he has DNA from several species, including humans and Vulcans I believe. Which means that his ancestors had to have come in contact with those species and it's unlikely that would have happened under the same circumstances if First Contact with the Lukari had been postponed without the Tox Uthat...

    The Unraveled trailer released this morning, so I'm expecting the New Arc also started today and yet barely anyone is talking about it.
  • corerunner#1772 corerunner Member Posts: 143 Arc User
    So with the trailer showing a Pioneer class ship will we get an independent T6 version available to be gotten with zen or T6 coupon or will it be a lockbox? I've been waiting for a Pioneer replacement for my TOS toons.

    What does the 'Starfleet Armour Uniform (2259)' from the Lobi Store look like? It's not shown in the blog (the 'Majalan Guard' outfit is shown).

    Right clicking the Starfleet Armour Uniform (2259) and Majalan Guard in the Lobi Store does not show the uniforms (missing art assets?).

    This program, though reasonably normal at times, seems to have a strong affinity to classes belonging to the Cat 2.0 program. Questerius 2.7 will break down on occasion, resulting in garbage and nonsense messages whenever it occurs. Usually a hard reboot or pulling the plug solves the problem when that happens.

    So we accidentally the universe and now the Tholians are making us fix it.

    seems legit
