Hi Captains,

We will be bringing down Star Trek Online tomorrow, Thursday, March 7th, at 7AM PST (click here to view in your timezone) for maintenance. There will not be a new patch this week and we expect this maintenance to only last for 2 hours. The test server may also be unavailable during this time.

Thanks for your patience and understanding,

- The Star Trek Online Team

    the patch I was on about was released on tribble on the 1st , this was a week ago just about and no patch this week so that will end up being more than a week will it not ?

    Do you have any idea how many times I've brought that up?
    3-4 times a month for over a year!

    And I reminded them again last week as well.

    I got the Maruading BOFF 1 month after it was released and every single time I tried to edit the costume, it bugged out and snapped back to "default setting".

    I'm actually at the point where I'm researching ways to contact the Costume Dev directly, because, obviously, reporting the problem to the GMs hasn't resulted in a fix, otherwise it would happened by now!

    It might not be his fault... it might be something somewhere else in the pipeline. Far as I know, the "costume dev" is the guy who sets up the models and textures for the new costumes. Tailor coding probably isn't his thing.

    If it's not fixed by the character creator overhaul, though, something's really amiss.

    I can't log in and play. Game just keeps saying "Patching" for the last couple hours. This is pretty frustrating. Someone fix that code please it's not patch time yet.

    Well if they discovered that the patch wasn't WAI on tribble it would make sense not to push it to holodeck yet. There has been a lot of heat over the release of code that didn't work on tribble but still made it to holodeck, so this delay may well be QA doing its job properly -this time-.

    I do it as often as possible as well, been doing it for over a year. Who knows right...

    We even had to wait for a fix to the KHG gun till the Feds got the same one. It's really sad to pay money for things KDF side and mainly only get things done for Feds. Look at how fast the Andorian Escort was fixed. Pet AIs didn't get improved till Feds got carriers either while I'm talking about this. This is why I tell people the game isn't run by Ferengi's. If the playerbase KDF is only 20%, Ferengi's wouldn't ignore 20% profit.

    ST.25.20130128a.44

    General:
    Updated the Romulan Reputation system Plasma Flamethrower reward.
    Increased the rate at which the Plasma Flamethrower's primary fire drains Plasma Fuel.
    Removed the max periods for maintaining from the Plasma Flamethrower's attacks.
    Now, the attacks will only shut off if you run out of fuel or intentionally stop holding down the attack.
    Adjusted the plasma flamethrower's fuel recharge rates.
    Plasma fuel will no longer recharge for 2 seconds after the player fires.
    This timer starts after the player finishes attacking.
    Add Plasma Flamethrower ammo indicator to the UI.
    Using the Flamethrower's melee attack will no longer display the weapon twice if it is currently holstered on your back.
    Updated the description of the Plasma Flamethrower to reflect the updated functionality.
    Updated the charge up time listed in the tooltip of the Wing Cannon Overload console.
    This is a text change only.


    could be this.

    I'd guess that there is noone left to do patching, they all have got to make new screenshots/teasers for this. Maybe even the QA is testing it, so it doesn't become the next "bugged on release - Featured Episode".

    Can you please give an estimate as to when the game will be fixed so that everything is exactly the way I think it should be, no matter how insignificant or unbalanced those things I desire may be? Thanks.

    Clear your target (click into empty space or press escape), then you can control your ship again.

    I'd really like to see the Romulan +/- Threat consoles fixed at some point so the Threat modifier actually does something. Why are we spending dilithium and all the other stuff on embassy if it unlocks only buggy worthless consoles?

    Please fix this? (It really shouldn't have been added into the game until it was actually useful IMHO.)

    keep tapping esc like mad or take off auto fire and get out of comabt then unselect target.

    easyer to just spamm esc til it works again.

    i know thats not a fix but until then thats all we got.
