I'm having trouble getting into a Tau Dewa Red Alert.
I hit the Red Alert logo and jump in to find out it's already completed, then it auto warps me out of there. While I'm waiting to jump out there's a constant stream of people warping in and jumping out just like me.
I've tried getting into a Red Alert almost 10 times now and have never been able to play it.

Out of about 20 tries on Holodeck so far, I've gotten in about 3 times. I wish it wouldn't reset your position to the left of the Sector Block in those cases where the session is empty.
Not even once so far.. so I have no idea how it even looks like
Lots of Tholians, lots of phased tetryon beams, lots of disruption torpedoes, lots of Tholians, lots of subsystem targetting, lots of dead Borg, lots of Tholians, lots of dead players, lots of tractor beams, lots of Tholians, lots of web nodes and webs, lots of tricobalts from recluse carriers, lots of Tholians...
I think you get the idea.
Oh, and did I mention two Tarantulas, one of which is a named ship that you can get an accolade for killing (provided you kill all 3 of them)? And in case I missed this too, lots of Tholians.
It is said the best weapon is one that is never fired. I disagree. The best weapon is one you only have to fire... once.

Pretty good description xD
I only made it once in it ... out of 20 attempts :rolleyes: Of course I had 2 Tarantulas and support camping the spawn point. THAT wasn't very nice of them

So far out of 50 something attempts I've got in once. That 1 instance was a fail due to the mass of people who (A) Had no idea what to do and (B) had utterly TRIBBLE builds. Think rainbow tacs in oddys.
Got in today, huge cluster F@$# with being attacked by the named ship and about 20 unnamed ships as soon as I got in the map. Since I was traveling in sector at the time I had the Borg Engines on, so I had to keep them most of the run (which meant I had no set thanks to all mis-matched parts). Constant weapon disables and webs, so I had to hit the Vesta's shield bubble and run to the edge to get anywhere, then, once I was free of the starting webs, focus down one to three orb weavers at a time.
Oh, and I encountered a total kill web that locks you in place and grays out all your abilities and consoles, not sure if it disables weapons but those were offline too, while the Tholians just pound you. I could only sit there and watch as my hull melted. I think it's a named ship ability.
Somehow we still managed to kill the main group and mop up the other groups before the timer ran out.

1 was kind of random and the other was at the end of a disasterous player effort.
But, I don't bother anymore because most of the time you're warping back out again.
