    Good deal. I had this one from my Collector's Edition way back when, but it's cool to see more people getting their hands on it. It also makes sense since DS9 stuff was second place on the recent poll. Looking forward to all the other cool stuff. :)

    Thanks for posting. I also have the Collector's Edition and didn't realize I already had this unlocked.

    Not finding it on the C-Store, I checked the tailor. From there I was confused with the first screen options "Deep Space Nine Bundle" along with other stuff. It was only after I hit "Uniform" and then "Upper" that I realized I had it.

    what there to thank for?

    I got nothing. there nothing to thank for. Basically like normal it PWE and Cryptic flippinh the bird long time supports who spent money on the product.

    And you know this how...for all you know DS9 uniform was not own by a majority of players who spend a lot of money on other things like lockboxes and ships, but not uniforms.

    My friend has been here since beta, got the regular version of the game, and just now got a Free DS9 uniform because he only gets ships.

    Thank you for giving us free stuff :)



    Kdf will get their item tomorrow. Rom items are too new (they are still making money from those items). So there is no reason to feel cheated.

    I have basically zero interest in the DS9 uniform (i'm not interested in any uniform if I can't by extension make the rest of my crew wear the same), but I claimed it nonetheless and thank you Cryptic for giving away free sh*t.

    The DS9 uniform is unvailable to my Federation characters in the Z-Store today at 11AM Pacific Time. I have never purchased it previously. It is not listed in the Z-store at all (nowhere in the list of uniforms in the Appearance tab). If I go to the tailor and attempt to apply a DS9 uniform bundle to any Fed. character , the tailor offers to sell the bundle to me for 2,250 zen (thus, I truly have never purchased it in the past). I tried relogging, and logging in on every one of my different Fed characters, but still it is not listed in the Z-Store.

    Let me tell you this
    • I'm lifetime
    • I'm playing for 18 months
    • I have both federation charaters and klingons characters

    DS9 uniform doesn't appears in c-store => appearance tab.
    I went to DS9, to the tailor. No DS9 uniform.
    By the way. The game crash each time I'm doing something in tailor. Thank you very much for this new bug.

    I don't send mail to GM because cryptic support doesn't exist. All mails go to /dev/null

    I don't expect any fix. I'm just tired about bugs. Again and again. It's really tiring.

    Thanks :) I already got them on my chars from a lockbox, but having them account wide is a nice plus, plus they are part of my crew's uniform (enlisted personnel) :)

    Captains, again, if you are not seeing the item in the C-Store, you already own it (e.g. past C-Store purchase, bought off exchange, bought for Lobi, have it in the Collector's Edition, etc.). You can verify this by visiting the tailor and putting on the uniform.

    Cheers,

    If the uniform does not show in C-store appearance tab, you DO own it.

    Okay, I'm not trying to be rude but do not try to apply the DS9 bundle in the tailor as this is for an admirals jacket, NOT the DS9 uniform being given away. Go to the uniform tab at the bottom of the appearance page in any tailor and look under "Upper". The DS9 jacket should have a green check by it.
    If, and only IF, it does not appear where I'm telling you, file a ticket as it would be a genuine bug, otherwise it is a PEBCAK issue.

    Congrats to all the folks getting the DS9 Uniforms for Free!

    I got mine on my LTS account back when I purchased my Collector's Edition of the game. However, my Silver/Alt account doesn't have these yet, so I'm going get them Free, there.

    Thanks Cryptic!

    :D

    Seems most people are thinking they are given the Ds9 bundle. It isn't it the Ds9 uniform and there is only a top half

    .


    all I know is that the 'TNG Split Bottom pants' are screwed up.


    they look awful, mismatched material, and what's up with the swirly lace patterns on the calves that can even be color changed ???

    Give us back the TNG split bottom pants that looked good, please.

    As I said: Tried this and the tailer wants 550 Points from me...I definitly don't own this uniform.

    I can see both DS9 Uniform types: DS9 and DS9 Admiral (which is 2250 points <- does someone realy pay this much for something noone ever notice ingame?).

    And when I use the DS9 jacket for example the purchase says it costs 550 points...

    Edit:

    Just 2 DS9 Uniform options at the tailor:
    Upper Body
    Category: Uniform - Jacket Loose
    Upper:
    Option 1: Deep Space Nine - open (costs 550)
    Option 2: Deep Space Nine Admiral (Costs 2250)

    Is this right that there are only 2 DS9 Outfits available? Normal "open" means an own category.

    Thank you PWE/Cryptic for this summer giveaway. It's refreshing to see you give back to your player base, even if some are ungrateful for your generousity.

    There is positively zero reason why anyone should complain over something free. If you already had the item in question, great. You are not entitled to anything other than what you pay for. I sincerely hope this is the last thread made on this topic while this giveaway goes on.

    This is pretty cool. :)

    I already had that uniform on my main account though, from the deluxe edition, but got it on other acc.



    Also I honestly hope you get to sell some extra costume slots from this. :)

    We are excited to announce that today's FREE C-Store item is the Deep Space 9 Uniform! Read more for full details, including claiming instructions.


    Click here to read more.

    HELP!!!

    I logged in as my FED admiral, but my C-Store isn't showing the DS9 uniforms. I thought maybe I'd already claimed it somehow, but the in-game tailor says I don't own the DS9 set.

    Am I doing something wrong, or is this a bug?

    The DS9 Bundle comes with the DS9 Admiral's Uniform, which is quite nice to be honest.

    That doesn't tell me whether it is the same?

    The DS9 uniform is a Fed only outfit. If you are a Romulan this is not an option that you could choose. Bran has said that to claim any of the free items you have to meet the requirements for that particular items, such as faction, rank etc etc.

    I am FED and have been max level since launch! I have not bought in the lobi store, nor have I bought the collectors edition, and the only thing I see in the tailor is ds9 bundle, and a few messed up blank options at the bottom of the list.

    It's not a set from the main drop-down. Its just an upper. Go edit your uniform slot, turn off unowned items, choose Upper, look for Deep Space 9. Just the top.

    Brandon you should ask the c-store guys to do an "Already Purchased" thing on these uniforms like they do with things like EC limit unlock

    My values are based off the ZEN cost of the item in the C-Store. No Tribbles are being given away during this promo.

    Cheers,

    Brandon =/\=

    Based on this info, I predict this:

    Monday: Uniform 550 Zen
    Tuesday: Uniform (I'd say TNG) 550 Zen (1100/7500 total)
    Wednesday: Fighter (I'd say Peregrine and To'Duj fighter) 500 Zen ea (2100/7500 total)

    That means for the starship we'll either be getting a 750 Zen ship on Thur and a 2000 zen ship on Fri, or a 1000zen ship on Thur and 1500 Zen ship on Fri. However, since there are no 750 Zen ships on the Klingon side, the second option is more likely. Though, Brandon's 7500 figure was only approximate so who knows.

    Possible combos:

    Thursday: Starship (my call, Norgh BOP refit, Adv Heavy Cruiser)
    Friday: Starship (my call, Vor'cha refit and Sao Paulo class)

    Wait a second, I thought the free item was the Nukara Tribble. I logged in today and it was marked as claim, 4 of my characters on Holodeck have claimed one. I also though TRIBBLE was a Tribble reward and I don't have a Tribble account.

    Unless this was always there and I never saw it before.
