what happened to the Tribbles?

SystemSystem Member, NoReporting Posts: 178,019 Arc User
I was just wondering what happened to the 2 extra tribbles that were suppost to be added to C-Store if after spending over an hour on tribble server over the weekend you could claim them!

pasted from STO website

Join us this weekend on the Tribble Test Shard to preview the new Season One: Common Ground and you will receive two special unlocks!

Assimilated Tribble: This Tribble grants you a bonus when dealing with the Borg
Crash Test Tribble: A special Title you can assign your captain
Spend an hour or more on Tribble between the times below to qualify:

Start Time: 2 p.m. Friday, March 19 (GMT -8)
End Time: 9 a.m. Monday, March 23 (GMT -8)

Special Unlock items will be granted via the C-Store when Season One: Common Ground goes live to Holodeck and can be used once per account when playing on both Tribble and Holodeck servers.


well season 1 has now gone live and no tribbles, anyone got any news on these, as i spent over 3 hours on tribble over the weekend granted it was over 2 days but at 1 point was on for 2 hrs which would qualify me for these, but they arn't in my C-store.

    Technically its just one tribble, the Assimilated Tribble. Crash Test Tribble is a title.

    The Borg have to harvest tribbles from players in Infected. They will then infect those tribbles with nanites to create assimilated tribbles which will then breed uncontrollably because they no longer require food in order to procreate. Once the Borg space the tribbles because there's too many, a Ferengi descendant of Cyrano Jones will need to fly thru the Gamma Orionis system and pick the tribbles up in his cargo hold. He will then transport them to Space Station K7 where you will eventually meet him in the bar. ;)

    keep in mind the devs are #1 a small band of merry men (like robin hood only with advanced computer videogame designing skills )
    #2 have to go thru an insanely long list of people who went on tribble over the weekend
    #3 still adding/updating the c-store and adding content/patchy stuff to do with the update/patch (what you downloaded was only the biggest parts of it )
    #4 not miricale works (they don't multiple everything by 4 )
    so one should be patient and wait till the end of the day and see what happens....then start complaining tomorrow

    Keep in mind, they should do what they say. If a dev says it will be ingame at a certain time then it SHOULD be ingame. Integrity is key. Cryptic loses theirs every time they say and not do. Consumers are keeping score.

    Sorry, I'd rather have them say something and there be a delay than know nothing at all. What they say is to give us information and be able to keep up with the goals and direction of the game. Things go wrong, in your life as well as everyone else. As long as they try and keep making good on things as fast as they can and communicating what's happening, I'm good.
    Though I'm sure you've never had a delay in anything, your whole life, where you said you'd do but didn't get to when you intended... it's not like that for us mortals. Try and understand.

    Look in c-store under special unlocks and it's there. Same goes for a password (for lifers it seems). Don't think there is anything else there as everything else is automatically assigned like titles.

    As mentioned in the release notes, all items that are tied to the C-Store should be available before end of day today (pacific time -8 GMT). If you log in 24 hours from now and still don't have the item, then its a bug and we'll go from there, but since there is already another thread about this stating that people are slowly getting their items as the webstore grants them - I'm hopefuly you'll have yours soon.

    is test tribble really only on one character as people are saying? There's no warning or anything on the c-store, so I want to be sure first,


    Seems a bit weird if so?

    I'm not sure I really want to lock it in with one character right now as they arent high enough level to know whether it would be worth it, but at the same time I want to see it and stuff :(

    There's a chance we may have more "Tribble Weekends" in the future - so you never know - there may be ways to get them again.

    are you able to confirm there will be more in the future? Maybe it's intentional to make sure we still have motivation to participate in future tests without needing to make new content again?

    I hope they all died.

    What we need is a tribble flame thrower. Now, wouldn't that be a beautiful sight ... a flaming pile of tribbles 8 feet high.

    Yes, I hate tribbles.

    once per character, not once per account.

    Yup this. All the characters on your account can get one.

    Those of us who didn't get one -- can we log into the Tribble/Test Server to get one now?

    Nope; had to be during the weekend. It was basically a "holiday event".

    You certain about this?

    Because I would like to have this for my Klingon, my main Alien LC and my eventual Liberated Borg.
