Rescue Deferi Captives:
After correctly completing the dialogue you begin to transport the Deferi on board. After the transport is complete the timer continues to tick without registering the transport was successful. When time runs out mission failed.
Aiding the Deferi:
Deferi Outpost 3: Supplies Overdues
First step is to Contact Outpost. When you try to do that you get the menu to visit the store there. This step can not be completed and the mission does not proceed.
-Deferi Outpost, totally cant do the "scan freightor one" as it just keeps asking you to contact outpost but you cant.
-Breen patrol, when you do the interaction to beam over the deferi, itll do it but they don't transfer over and you are then forced to attack them. You pretty much sit there after the whole "blue sparklies" shoot all over and nothing goes forward, then the breen attack you on sight.
Not sure about kelvani as we just skipped that since we couldn't do outpost.
Nitpicking is a time-honored tradition of science fiction. Asking your readers not to worry about the "little things" is like asking a dog not to sniff at people's crotches. If there's something that appears to violate natural laws, then you can expect someone's going to point it out. That's just the way things are.
Any word on whether or not this problem might've been fixed by last night's patch? The Deferi dailies are part of my daily in-game routine. Be a shame if they're still broken, as has been reported.

ROLF Imagine how those of us feel whom can't even get back onto game since 1st season 8 patch... we are losing our 15 free lobi and F2P like myself are losing 8 K dil x5 toons...
If I were a LTS like most in my situation, I would be DEMANDING some form of compensation... no point for me to try this tho, as there is no real loss to compensate me for due to my current status.
O... and for the record, Defari dailies are part of my regular routine too.
:cool:
Well I'm glad this is known and the team is working on it at least.
I was unpleasantly surprised to say the least.

Seems awfully anxious for the player to hail them with a hello and small talk, like you warped in to 'visit outpost', when you're warping in to deal with an attack. Bug, or intended behavior? It makes one think that the mission is bugging up (it did for me anyway), initially. It finished, but that still seems... not normal. Low priority tho. ^_^
Not only the small talk but the mission is not able to be finished. You end up doing both missions at that planet at the same time. There is one to scan disabled freighters and to eliminate the Breen patrols - part of the 3 mission daily. The freighters and Breen are there but you cannot scan the freighters and it does not even appear in the mission tracking. At the same time, you are being asked to repair the sensors. You can engage the repairs but they do not count toward completion. I dropped the repairs it gave me to do the daily mission and it put the system on 20 hours cooldown.
Condense, both missions at Outpost 3 are being given at the same time and neither can be completed. This causes the Aiding the Deferi Daily to not be able to be completed.
EDIT: It seems to me that the "Ops" menu is the problem. It persisted through the whole thing and was present in the middle of my screen out of combat and in the lower right in combat. Every time I performed an action that should have ticked off a completed step, the small talk window popped up instead of the step completion being recorded. I ended with all Breen dead but no freighters scanned and all 4 sensors fixed with 0/4 repaired.
Aiding the Deferi Outpost 3 appears to be broken when entering Assist Outpost 3, 1 of 3 different missions is supposed to generate, this is not happening. Its like just visiting the outpost where you can select store and that mini mission repair satellites ? Also playing as a Fed on Breen Patrol the game is not recognizing i have beamed the Prisoners off the Breen ship after firing the Deflector pulse, causing the mission to fail.

I've also noticed this, though in regards to the first point, I noticed if you enter and leave the system a few times you'll notice, in the distance, a Deferi frigate battling a Breen vessel. Proceed towards it, engage and defeat it and it SHOULD set the counter in the corner and...then..just proceed and defeat..
And tonight was Supplies Overdue. Which requires outpost contact to start. And guess which window popped up from the outpost? Of course, 'store' and 'outpost security'. NOT THE MISSION POPUP. Aid the Deferi is thusly totally unfinishable tonight for me. Get this FIXED, please?
Add to that: Kelvani Outpost under attack also requires contact outpost. Clicking 'Ops' there only gives you 'transport successful'.
Correction, I blasted all 6 groups, and the end contact came up without the first one, so it finished. going to test whether going to the freighters in OP3 works, without calling outpost.
Update: Nope. Dropped Aid the Deferi due to inability to complete.
yes the out post 3 deferi mission was busted as all hell for me tonight as well. all i would get is the ops button in the middle of the screen...with queen fish head telling me about how great her store was....nothing would happen about the attack they was facing that i came to deal with.
As of Thursday 11/14 evening this is still broken. So looks like today's maintenance did not get this after all.
I would like to point out yesterday Deferi Outpost 3 daily was to defeat the Breen ships, that daily was completable despite the bug.
It's the one that I hate the most, retrieve the cargo from the ambushed ships that's the most affected.
Even worse is the rescue the deferi daily where you have to beam them off. You can do everything right and it just fails. I was ticked. I'm surprised they haven't even mentioned it in the notes after two updates, at least as a known issue.

I have the same pop-up dialog issue on "Assist Outpost 3", plus "Rescue Deferi Captives" is broken as well:
If "beam over prisoners" is chosen, the interaction bar fills up and fails to trigger the follow-up dialog. Nothing happens until the timer runs out: "Failed to rescue the Deferi captives", dang.
These mission-breaking glitches are particularly annoying given the misisons in questions are Dilithium dailies. Plus, I actually kind of liked the Deferi missions. Can we have them back in playable shape? :rolleyes:

Well, at least I have a boatload of latinum I can use to pay off the Breen for the time being...
I'm hoping that's a joke? Has the mission been completing if ya pay off the Breen??
They've nerfed dilithium earning methods, nerfed EC earning methods and now they want more of our Latinum too?
The Grand Nagus isn't gonna like this at all...unless he's in on it with the Breen.;)
On a serious note, I take it the last patch hasn't remedied this problem? 'Cause I'm not gonna bother even attempting my Deferi dailies until I read confirmation that they're back in working order.

Despite having clear the transport with nearly ten seconds left, the clock runs down and it claims I have failed to rescue the captives. The Breen then attack and the mission considered a failure. I have noticed several things in the Orellius sector block being broken recently.
Confirmed broken on my end too, I have had others say that they have always done the latinum method and that has worked and still continues to work, many didn't even know of the deflector pulse option, lol. Either way hoping this gets fixed soon, rather would not be spending 1000 GPL for 480 dilithium daily.
Just wanted to bump this. This mission is unable to be completed, and therefor the entire daily series cannot be completed. Provoking the Breen, and defeating all the reinforcements also doesn't seem to work (this method is mentioned on the wiki). Needs to be fixed.

Yeah, two of the dailes are bugged and thus cannot be completed.
