Greetings!
Thanks to many who brought several issue to our attention after the Season 1.1 update went live yesterday. The team has identified fixes for several of these bugs and we've decided to push an update tonight to address these issues.
Here are the incoming fixes
- PVP missions were not completing properly. We've identified what went wrong and have confirmed that PVP matches and missions are completing properly now.
- While the chance of getting a Commodity mission is random, we've upped the odds so they should be a little more frequent now
- Many of the items in the Mark Stores were showing bogus tooltip info and now show their proper DPS and bind stats.
- There was a frustrating respec bug that would fully re-respec you after ranking down skills which is now fixed.
- The Pakled traits are a little better now. They're not so dumb after all.
There are some other minor fixes which will be in the patch notes tonight - but in case you've been wondering about the above, you at least know the fixes are coming tonight.
Thank you again for bringing these issues up, and it is frustrating that some of these issues were brought up on Tribble and not addressed in time. We are looking into the causes of that and endeavor to improve the Tribble feedback loop. These bugs suck and its a bummer you had to even see them.
As always - I welcome your comments.

There were a few camera changes and a direct change to ship customization (so that C-store ships show up), so it could be a bug. But it could just be me, so I didn't really make a fuss.
Something to check at least.
not sure if the intent was to have combat ending this way, seems odd to me that my finishing torpedo is not destroying my target cuz it impacts the hull, rather, it impacts a full shield and that 10% bleedthrough is just enough to tick off that last couple percentage hull they have left
other than that i find the challenge much greater and look forward to combat missions once more
Normal is your Easy option. Think of Advanced as Normal, normal as Easy, and Elite as hard
1. The Scan effect for my fleet escort using the new body comes out sideways.
2. Disruptor cannons don't seem to have a sound effect, or if they do it kicks in once in a blue moon. This applies to the Green MKX's from Sol and the Purple MKX's from the battlegroup.
Race
Ship Name
Fleet
and Biographies
etc...
That happening with anyone else?
This is affecting all ships. It seems the beam is set to always aim at certain coordinates on the map (usually the direct middle).
1: Ground Buff's still working in space. I had my Tribble Buff's and Over-watch running while flying around in Sol.
2: From an Aid the planet mission. When you deliver supplies and get the gift box, it seems to automatically equip something from your inventory to your tray. In this case when I received the item I got some small Hypo equipped, while aboard my ship.
So, in the interim, I wanted to at least convey my appreciation for all these wonderful updates that you have done that many of us have been asking for, like Auto-fire, Difficulty Settings, Exchange tweaking, and the change to Commodity Missions.
I look forward to more changes by the time I am able to return as well. Specifically more diplomatic missions and I cannot forget to leave out the ability to allow us to turn back on Leonard Nimoy's voice over introduction to the sectors when traveling to them (or has this been implemented and I missed it?). As well, please keep some focus on Solo Playability for those of us who are not able to, for various reasons, join groups that often.
Please keep up the great work. I hope you continue to on your current path, indeed!
Edit: Also, what is that strange blue nebula/cloud thing hovering outside earth spacedock?
the gateway to the captains table social area
Ship Editting - cant zoom in close enough , this is anoying too and i edit my ship alot lol
No C-Store Ship - the Excellsior isnt there :P
Although there was some speculation as to the cause, I've seen no discernible pattern to why some matches aren't counted. It doesn't seem to matter if you win or lose the match, if you fight FvK or FvF, or if you join Any Game or New Game only; some just aren't counted.
i noticed that. in pvp i like to check what people ship class is from a distance and its just says ()
Ground buff applying in space (in my case a tribble buff). Bugged: 842603
Scan effect going sideways (I thought it was just scanning in the direction of the anomaly, since I tend to over-fly them)
Missing field information for other ship captains when checking their "info"
And I have to say, the ship zoom limits in the shipyard is ridiculously annoying! When I'm modifying my Galaxy class its not too bad (you know, cause it's huge), but when I'm trying to mess with my Defiant class, I can't see a darn thing (cause it's tiny). That zoom limit needs to be turned off. So what if there's some clipping, We need to be able to see what windows are going on and other details. It's impossible to work with at the moment.
Do you really think that the game needs and easer mode than normal? I found the regular difficulty (before 1.1) almost mindnumbingly easy at times. I love the new difficulty slider! My B'Tran Exploration mission dailies are actually exciting now! I actually DIED ONCE while doin them on elite. For me that kind of a challenge is awesome
On explore missions (and I assume others, as well), when you first enter a system and the camera swings around before you actually can move, it sometimes leaves the camera angle FACING your ship (as opposed to the way it used to leave the camera angle BEHIND your ship).
This might not sound like much of a bug, but on the explore missions that start with an enemy encounter immediately after your bridge officer gives you the mission details, it can be pretty annoying to have to manually move your camera around to face/find the enemy who, of course, has been blasting you.
Don't care, still leaving the system without doing them. I hate these missions, but good work on the rest of the fixes!
