    The requisition project for the Scorpion fighters needs to be looked at. At the moment it's 10,000 dilithium for a blue hanger item when all others are 4,150 energy credits. That would be OK it if wasn't for the additional 30 common Engineering/Operations duty officers that need to be sacrificed. They were sold for ~50,000 energy credits when I bought them. I expect that price to increase but at the 50,000 price that's 1,500,000 energy credits along with 10,000 dilithium. Doesn't that seem unreasonable?

    On a separate note, how about having the Tuffli or Diplomatic tier allowing transwarp to the new sector?

    I agree. Are those Scorpion Fighters even close to being worth that much? I've been pretty happy with the Purple Peregrine Fighters and while I can't say exactly how much dil they were...they certainly weren't that much.

    Time for a STO Season 7 Update

    ... and the criticism (although some of you need to learn some manners) ...

    This - without the slightest doubt - is very true. Wish it would not.
    Thank you for your patience!

    So there is plenty to look forward to in Season 7 and we thank you for continuing to share your feedback and comments with us. Thank you for the both the kudos and the criticism (although some of you need to learn some manners). We get better with every season and we have you to thank for that. We do listen, and while we don't always immediately react, we do deliberate and make changes based on ideas and feedback you submit. The QA team is still crunching through all of your bug reports and we expect to have major issues ironed out soon.

    You should feel ashamed! KDF had nothing for season 7. Your devs didn't fix any bugs in KDF side.
    Your devs make me pity. They don't work very well.
    What kind of message error we get often? "Server is not responding".
    After the schedule maintenance, what we got? We can't launch the launcher.
    When season 7 launched, Private STF are so bugged you closed them.
    And now you're suprising some player forgot their good manners? They paid for services, they bought cryptic point, zen point, they are gold or lifetime.
    I really think you should feel ashamed for the poor MMO experience you provide. I have good manners but I forget my good manners with thief!

    Carriers and ships with a hanger bay like the Heavy Escort and a ship you might have heard of called a Multi-Mission Explorer aka the Vesta-class.

    And a high price is OK because you don't want to make them?:rolleyes:

    Yep, 30k, but the dilithium isn't the problem for me. It's the 30 duty officers that I want removed.

    Getting a bug where one of my Reputation projects says "Finishing" ... for the last hour.

    I'd bug report it but I can't stay connected long enough to type it up.

    Wow, this is really some unbelievable news! Major kudos to you and the team for making adjustments that lead to QoL improvements for the masses :)

    One last request in this bundle-of-joy you've given us: another Junior Officer Appreciation Week? That Excomp doff is sorely missed on my characters :(

    We will also be running a full month of Feature Episode Replay where all the limited time rewards from all four series will be available all month long. So if you've got some new characters that need these special items, December is going to be your chance to catch up.

    Yay! So looking forward to this! :D

    Mr. Stahl, let's make a deal : 1000 Zen for each disconnect I'll get, starting from now till you fix it.

    A deal, not negotiable.

    Thanks! Great read!

    Might I politely suggest that these changes to Dilithium rewards be marked as "Bonus" or something? ZDE Fluctuation Adjustment? Something like that to reflect the work-in-progress that MMOs are, and that these things are indeed subject to change?

    So, something might reward X and you want it at Z.
    • You can increase X to so X = Z.
    • Or, you can have X + Y = Z.

    Later on, should you need it to be A instead of Z, you can adjust Y accordingly.

    Does that make sense? Or would that be unnecessarily complicated?

    edit: Be sure to label it as such! So, "Dilithium Reward: X, Bonus Y" when giving out the rewards. Just so its reinforced, "this is a bonus, this is an extra."

    OK this is getting ridiculous. I am just dissapointed.... I cant stay connected for more than 3 minutes..... I expect some sort of in-game mail apologizing for this and containing some very rare weaponry for our ships!!!!!

    I believe these changes are fair. Thanks :) .

    One note, the foundry daily. 3 *good* well done foundry missions go anywhere from 45mins to 1h30mins.

    I would strongly encourage looking into altering this dil reward, and perhaps if possible devise a mission length scaled dil reward algorithm so if someone lands a 1h long mission they'd end up with about the same amt of dil as they do with 3 15 min missions.

    Dunno how much of that would be possible based on the coding of the game but figured I'd suggest something. There are some truly good missions hiding in the foundry and anything that would help the players explore more missions is welcome news.

    Can we also just turn off the "All" tab of the exchange that's still broken?

    Simple change, would force newer players to use the correct tabs.

    Edit: ^^^^^ I second sfhq's idea. To make it fair, do this, and let them have their 3 one-click quickies.. that since they take 1s, give them 1 dil each. =P

    OK, appreciate your efforts and listening to us on this stuff and all, but the amount of times I've been disconnected now is approaching the ridiculous - and I'm missing out on rewards and drops for not finishing missions...frustrating, to put it mildly. Have actually never been DC'd before (seriously, never), and it's been about 6 or 7 times now in the last 30 minutes.

    I put this into the 'Gameplay Bugs' threads, too.

    Hard to enjoy the fixes and other goodies if you can't stay logged in. In reading, it is clear this is impacting a lot of folks, so I hope you all will do something about this pretty quick...

    Thanks.

    In my point of view this has been the greatest patch/update/post Cryptic/ Daniel has ever done in the history of STO! All the replies just shows that they are listening, which in my P of V it is the most important, besides the game! :)

    Hmmm, let's say Microsoft is listening to their costumers and does a great update according for their new Windows 8 with the result that your PC isn't working any more or make the functionality worse then before, is it then still a great patch ???

    This is the case now. Great, they have listened to our feedback, but we can barely stay online or do something in the game. ;)

    Hmmm, lets see, its not the server as I've been online for many hours... ;), so check you connection or clean you PC once in a while, make sure you defrag it too, as it slows everything if you don't! ;)

    Dsthal you seem to be monitoring this thread so I'm posting this here.

    I'm a working Dad I don't get to play on week days, I would appreciate some dev acknowledging the bug with auto refining failure and hopefully get to work on fixing it.

    I have over 180k of ore and it has not been auto refining.
