Hello all,

First off I would just like to say that I have only had this game for a day and im really loving it.

Problems I got are:

1st: i keep trying to get other ships to join with me but either they join and just go off on their own or they dont bother.

do you every go to walk the decks of your own ship?

also got the ds9 uniforms with my game but for some reason cannot find them in my game, does anyone know where to find them/

I have noticed that their are new missions kitamar accords (sorry about the spelling) and one with species 8472, do these get added to your game on their own or do you have to download them?

    PUGging (Pick Up Groups) tends to bring about the yahoos. When you find a group who work well with you you'll enjoy this a lot more.

    As for your ship, for now it's just bridges, you can access it via the menu on the bottom right hand corner of your minimap, it should have a 'visit the bridge' option

    the new missions such as the Khitomer accords are part of a series of episodes refered to as Raidisodes.

    They start with the infected , then the cure , then the khitomer accords. You have to currently do them in order and cant just skip out the rubbish onces (cough cough the cure).

    You get them for free BUT you cant start them until you reach rear admiral 5 when you will get a message and told to go to the green borgy sector on your map . You get there through the transwarp gate in Orion system.

    as for Pick up groups (aka pugging). MMos have in recent years concentrated on solo only content the concept of grouping for most people is one they dont enjoy doing.

    I do enjoy pugging in startrek but i will say that after a mission has ended i will normally disband and then go to the next mission and if i group with that person again so be it. Its not that i dont like grouping but if you group with someone and then start a mission and they dont follow you into that same mission, the difficult of the mission will be increased thinking you are two people.

    Your best bet is find yourself a friendly fleet there are a few floating around and try and find some like minded people to join you. A few folks do roll alts, i have a science one started but im going to sit and wait till the next patch with the changes to difficulty before i continue.

    if you see me in game and im normally broadcasting about somthing (normally random) then try and drop me a line or broadcast back if im around i try and help out if folks are stuck.

    Next time you visit Starbase 1 (SOL system) look for the tailor in the requisitions area when you try to modify your uniform you'll see the option to wear the DS9 uniform.

    For a little more in-depth stuff:

    1: The game is essentially solo-able, and as a result it can be difficult to find a PUG. But keep trying, you may find one. Best of luck, there.

    2: Just your bridge, where you can't do anything. Ship interiors are "coming soon."

    3: Go to the C-Store (available on a link at the top-right of your HUD), and select the "Special Unlocks" tab. You should be able to claim your uniform there. You won't find it at the tailor until you claim it in the C-Store.

    4: The new missions are, as said, end-game level raids, which require a 5-man team of Rear Admirals. You won't gain access to the transwarp conduit to Gamma Orionis until you're RA.

    Thus far, and in order, there is: Infected, The Cure and Khitomer Accord. You must do them in order, and complete them. You cannot do "The Cure" until you successfully complete "Infected," and you cannot do "Khitomer Accord" until you successfully complete "The Cure."

    The fourth, "Terradome" hasn't been released yet. No idea if you'll have to have completed the other three before you can do this one, but someone probably knows and has already posted elsewhere on the forums.
