I am also not able to complete this. I only have one course showing up. If this keeps up, I will not be able to complete the project in the time given.
I have sent 2 tickets over the last 2 days. no response, and no fix.
I'm doing this event on 2 toons. Yesterday I got home from work late so I just accepted the mission to 'bank' it for today. I log on today and start the mission I accepted yesterday. The mission timer starts but there are NO COURSES to go through. :mad: Happened on BOTH toons.
Now when I drop the 'banked' mission, and do it again, the courses are there. But I'm still out of a day's 40 pearls. Cryptic, what are you going to do for us if your buggy mission fails more than 10 days for people who did all they were supposed to do to get the ship? :mad:
Sometimes I think I play STO just to have something to complain about on the forums.
I am still not able to do the mission. I tried dropping a banked one. I tried on a different toon. No joy.
I'm a working mom. I will not have the time to log into my character every 20 hours to do the course once it's fixed.
I am concerned about the devs characterizing this as "a very small number of players." That suggests to me that there will be no extension of the festival or other way to allow us to get enough pearls.
of course it's the character that I really want the ship on -sigh-
Consider yourself lucky that you "just" got this bug. I have had it since the second day of the event.
The good news is, there is a fix for this bug already on Tribble. [Read back a few posts.]
I am hoping that it gets to Holodeck when the team applies their first patch,
[hopefully shortly after the holiday weekend is over].
If that is the case, you will have lost just a few days (at most) of the event, which is easy to make up.
I, on the other hand, have missed 11 days of the event already due to this bug.
There is currently no way for my toon to make that up, short of using lobi [which I don't have].
I hope when they apply this bugfix, they also find some way of compensating pearls to those
who submitted tickets, or extend the event [either for everyone, or for those who submitted tickets].
Something surely needs to be done, since requiring us to spend lobi,
due to a bug that was no fault of ours, would be an unacceptable solution.
Yeah, I'm going to have to get some lobi for the one character of mine who was hit by the bug.
What sucks is that I *have* lobi, but not on the character who was hit by the bug, since that's a relatively new character. And the pearl bundles are bound on pickup. If they were account bound and not character bound, I'd be fine, but since they're not...*sigh*
I really hope they extend the chance to get the event ship.
It seems to me they should compensate us for the time lost. I don't care if they accomplish that by extending the event or by giving us a pearl bundle for every day that passed since we reported it, but something. This is not cool.
I have done this event on 7 characters and it worked fine until today. Now my KDF Engineer gets the 2 track version. I have circled the island many times, there is no third course to complete the mission. I have gathered 480 pearls so far.
I sure hope the fix is uploaded very soon. I can not get a different set of tracks, I am now permanently locked into these two courses every time I acquire the mission :mad: .
From the July 11 Patch notes:
'Resolved an edge case that resulted in a very small number of players receiving a version of "Flying High" they could not complete.'
Hopefully, this will fix the bug. Unfortunately, no word yet from the Cryptic team on how those of us who have had the bug from day 2 of the event [after the first patch] will be able to complete it.
Cryptic, please either extend the event, or give pearls to those who submitted tickets!
Requiring us to spend Lobi for pearls for something that was not our fault is unacceptable.
Well out of 15 toons, which i've done every day since event launch i got my first bugged daily mission today(patch day) so hopefully this fixes it and i can keep everything upto speed as it were. But still be nice if you could be knid to those who missed out a lot of pearls i'll probally not miss any bar it borking my prefered hour i do all my characters, as one of them now drops out of midafternoon(GMT) into evening where i am generally a bit busy.
But I, being poor, have only my dreams; I have spread my dreams under your feet, Tread softly because you tread on my dreams
W.B. Yeats Lifer since beta its never been so good! So now can everyone chill this game is going in the right direction :P
The good ...
The fix is in today's patch and it seems to work!
The bad...
No word yet from Cryptic on extending the event or reimbursing pearls for the days it was unplayable to those "few" players who reported it with tickets. [In my case, 13 days missed]
The ugly ...
The idea of adding sounds to the ring event, while good if only you could hear them when you passed through them, becomes a cacophony when you can hear everyone else going through them as well.
Risa used to be a nice quiet place to vacation. Now it has become a laser-tag arena. *sigh*
The dev's should be forced to listen to that sound 24/7 until it is fixed.
Edit: The latest patch has removed the ugly! Thank you!
[Now, how do we make up for 2 weeks of not being able to do the event?]
The July 11 Release notes state:
- Resolved an edge case that resulted in a very small number of players receiving a version of "Flying High" they could not complete.
While this did fix the problem, the fix came 14 days after the start of the Summer Event.
You need to complete 25 events in the 35 days of the event.
I had this bug since the second day of the event and reported it with a ticket the same day.
This means that unless I get compensated with pearls for the 13 days since I reported the bug until it was fixed, or unless the event is extended two weeks, my toon will be unable to complete this event.
Buying lobi to get pearls is NOT an option, since this bug was through no fault of my own.
Cryptic ... IS there any word on how this will be resolved?
Is this why the title still says: "*Team is working on a fix", when the fix was put in the July 11 update?
SOME official word on this from Cryptic would be most welcome. Thank you.

Thats the whole point make an event thats going to be hard to complete to begin with then add a bug that ensures some wont complete UNLESS they buy keys.
now lets do the mental leap of faith
Event hard to complete
event bugged cannot complete in time allotted
BUT you can buy keys to get the lobi you need for the pearls
There is still a bug with the courses. I took the Mission 20 hour ago, but didn't started the Mission. After starting the Mission with one toon and having 4min cooldown left the Mission worked fine. My other Char didn't got any course when the 20 hour are over.
Comments
I accept mission "Flying High" and only one course appears. I try to unequip the floater and re-equip it, but nothing. This is a serious BUG.
I tried dropping the mission and picking it up again, the same thing happens.
I also added this screenshot as well.

I have been having this issue for a week now.
I have sent 2 tickets over the last 2 days. no response, and no fix.

90% of my characters are Romulans, but the only one who has the bug so far is the Federation side Reman.
*edit* Now with picture:
