    Hey Bran,

    Can you guys fix the accolade system while it's down? I just put in yet ANOTHER ticket about the issue, included screenshots, and this would be my 5th ticket about the same issue that has gone unresolved for over a year....

    Cryptic account server maintenance has begun. We expect it to last for 2 hours and I will post again once it is complete. Thanks!

    Cheers,

    Hmmmm......

    Why would cryptic bring down their account server 1 day before everyone participating in the CE event can claim their prize instead of waiting 2 days and patch all the servers together on the usual patch day ?

    Is it a coincidence that I'm 6 days from a major account milestone, and the rest of the components for my next PC build arrive in 4 days ? There seems to be a great convergence of gaming activities happening this week, who or what will survive.

    :confused:


    i have to wonder why they picked the day before most complete CE to do this "Account Maintenance" BS...kinda odd if you ask me....why not just do it all Thurs like normal...like they always do? pretty weird lol

    I just got an ominous feeling. What horrors do you suppose this will unleash? How many weeks until normal game play finally resumes? What will we lose in the recovery efforts?

    Find out next week! Same Bat-time, same Bat-channel! :P

    lmfao...i'm assuming we won't all be able to log in and complete CE tomorrow...but thats a guess lol

    Megtrekkie, stop trolling. I've never had a problem worth complaining about, STO is awesome. Plus, your grammar is appalling. Don't complain about a complex game when you can't even insert a comma or period.



    GAWD this thing needs a like button.. that was fantastic!:D

    Well, I only dabble in a few other languages, but to my knowledge, no language syntax has every written word capitalized. ;)

    Notes say there is no patch. It is infrastructure upgrade. Many speculate has to do with shard merger of NW but that can't be all of it because it should not affect STO unless they are upgrading all of their servers to new machines."

    my thought is they are using the same server cluster to handle all logins to all games....and its getting an upgrade...therefore...all games are offline

    Yeah no kidding, not just map loading, but bridge loading times as well. It's utterly ridiculous to have to wait a minute or more every single time I beam to my bridge.

    I think that has more to do with your bridge being a private instance that has to be created every single time you go there.

    Yep and to make it go faster I beam to my shuttle bridge if I want to train someone or use my account bank when nowhere near a starbase.
