my bridge officer has the skill photon spread which I spent three levels on. When I clcik on it in space battle, the cooldown time begins and the photon icon goes on a 30 second countdown, about 6 seconds in the photon icon returns to normal and when selected it returns to it's 6 second cooldown but no torps launch, no damage inflicted on enemy. next shot from photon is normal.

anyone else got this bug?
Same here, I thought I was just missing something.
When you hit the photon spread button, you have 30 seconds to use it (i.e. 30 seconds to hit the torpedo button). There is a short global cooldown, after which you should be able to fire your torpedoes (assuming you are within the 45 degree firing arch). I've used this plenty of times and it works fine for me, the only time it appears not to work is just when you aren't facing the right direction, so your photons just aren't usable until you get within firing range.
Oh, Photon Spread I works... it's just that the animation/sounds don't play for some of us (like myself)... something's been changed between open beta and head start that's causing this to not quite be right.
