Hi Captains,

Patch notes for tonight's maintenance can be found here: http://sto-forum.perfectworld.com/showthread.php?t=789071

Thanks for your patience and understanding,

- The Star Trek Online Team

    This is not what I was wanting to hear...

    What I was wanting to hear is that due to your struggles of being a dilithium and reputation slave Zeuxidemus. We are going to do emergency maintenance to fix all of your broken KHG uniforms that you so grinded like a slave for :)

    Yeah thats what I heard... or wait what?!?!

    Oh yes KDF embassy costumes too... do emergency maintenance it has to be done! Give us a bat'leth tribble to go with it too...

    Oh and the jem hadar costume thingy too for the xii body armor :)

    This is BS. I'm sick of it. You guys already had the servers down for four hours earlier this morning. I'm playing Firefall in open Beta right now and guess what? It has less bugs, less server stability issues, than this TRIBBLE game does after how long? Three years? What a joke!

    Thank them for what? A bug infested game with constant downtime and bugs that have been around since launch?

    Ok...

    Are you kidding? You're entitled to your opinion mate, but there's a reason there isn't much thanks going around, maybe if you'd been here for a while you'd understand why.

    :eek: Wow... Bummer that the servers have to be taken offline again... Would be awesome if the patches didn't need the whole server to go down all the time. Would be great if the patches could be on the fly while loading a map or something.

    Please get the issues resolved whatever they are. While your at it, please let us claim the tribble thing even if its nothing fancy.

    Seems to be a lot of trouble with the tribbles. :rolleyes:

    Do you guys have a fix inbound for the peeps who can't buy pets/beams/stuff for their lockbox ships? If so, do you have any sort of ballpark estimate as to when we should look for that fix?

    Well, decided to buy the gold membership an hour ago cause I have been getting in the game but jeeze what is with the 2-3 hour server downtimes for fixes that seem pretty ridiculous. Due to work I have crappy hours and play late at night, early in the morning and it seems like half the time the servers are down for 3 hours because they want to fix a missing pixel on the back of one of the bartenders boots on risa.

    Not mad just kind of frustrated, have only been playing a week or so but I hope this is not a nightly thing.

    Usually if there is a big patch the day before, you should expect another meowntenance to follow the other day, and that one is usually at midnight PST or 9 AM GT (German Time). It's just too funny it happens when out of 30 days, I have only 2 days of non-early shifts like now, starting at 11:15 AM GT. :(

    General:

    The Nukara Tribble is back in the C-Store!
    Updated the cool down on the Nukara Tribble
    The repeating audio on the Risa Event map has been removed.
    Multiple stacks of deuterium surplus now share a 45 second cool down.

    Yep, its always the "Trouble with Tribbles" :D

    Dunno why I was expecting something cool like maybe a fancy free ship, they claimed there would be "A very generous reward" The tribble thing is cute but not much use in a space combat... Bummer, but hey, guess its better than nothing

    I find the lack of previous warning/notifications to be irritating. We were given 30 minutes notification. . .I learned about it via the indicator in-game.

    Please try to plan your 'emergency maintenance' sessions to where the players at least get an hour of warning.

    REALLY, emergency maintenance for this? Guess there's absolutely, positively no more important bugs to fix? Let's not deprive players of a Tribble, and curse all of you for exploiting deuterium without a cooldown. And what repeating audio? I got tired of most of the sounds in STO after a week of playing. I play with sound off most of the time now.

    Get better priorities if you're going to perform emergency maintenance. :mad:

    i believe the tribble was allowing you to make 6000 ore an hour and some players had it in game already

    so for them it was an emergency
