We have a new update or patch (15% off ships) but nothing to fix problems of the main storyline of the game and this is a let down and says that we have no confidence of ever seeing it actually getting fixed.
If any part of the main story line of a game doesn't work then the game is buggered and needs drastic attention, if things like reduction of price of ships then this says to people all they are doing is trying to make money all well and good but no attention to customers saying that something is wrong, is very bad.
First, thing that I noticed that was a problem is, that there were no "challenge of romulan thugs" to kill to protect the people, 1 left and down from the ferengie, and another under cover of scrap building, piffle.
Secondly, the secret door the only one that seems to be here to my knowledge is the one by the 2 pads, still has no acknowledgement of that it's been found and opened.
Thirdly, the jail cells, the major gives up and surrenders and gives no codes, no jail cells can be opened and that makes the other door stay closed as no code to open it.
Fourthly, acknowledgment of accolade for the horta area, unkown about horta hatchling pet as end of scenario can not be met as all the above can not be completed.
CAN A DEV PLEASE GIVE AN ACTUAL TIME FRAME OF WHEN THIS WILL BE FIXED AS ANY UPDATE WILL ONLY GIVE PEOPLE NO CONFIDENCE IF THESE BUGS ARE NOT FIXED.

I would describe this as a game breaking bug, and as such, should get a priority fix.
As unfortunate for the devs is that bugs like this might not be so easy to fix, and while I'm sure the devs wants this fixed ASAP, it might take longer to fix than anticipated.
Giving ETA on bug fixes is not the norm in the MMO world. They could say that it will be fixed in 3-4 days, and then not be able to do the fix in that time period, and thus the complaining starts, blaming the devs for not fixing it in the time frame they said...
So, as Obi-Wan would say : "Patience young Padawan"
1. I assume you're Tactical, since my sci and eng officers never got an option to do anything about thugs.
2. They know about the secret door bug.
3. Directly related to #2, they implemented the objectives sequentially - until you're registered as opening the door, the objective to get the codes isn't even enabled yet.
It's also why the 2 cutscenes don't play (her talking to her boss when you reach the central area, and the one of her walking in the brig area when you enter there.)
There's no need for the objectives there to be sequential, and this is just another example of "Cryptic Cleverness".
You have to open the secret doors to be able to trigger the first cutscene, you have to trigger that one to trigger the second one and you have to trigger the second one in order to be able to get the codes. Why they didn't just have the first cutscene enabled by default I don't know, since you obviously couldn't trigger it without getting past the secret doors, but Cryptic loves adding unnecessary complexity.
4. I think you can get the horta accolade since you can still reach that area and "talk" to it.
You can't finish the mission so you can't get the hatchling or the data about them to make the combat pet.
As for the all caps section, I think the eta is when the new Ice Capades show comes out featuring the denizens of Hades on skates.
I bet we'll get yet another cash store ship release before any of these bugs are fixed.
Hell Cryptic won't even acknowledge some of the bugs even exist, much less give an eta on a fix, but they'll push out more c-store ships.
Boycott.
Get hit by a bug - stop buying zen until they fix it and tell them that's what you're doing..
That's the only thing that's going to motivate them.
yeah normal MMO world rule is the customer knows nothing, and treated like mushroom and just kept in the dark, whether or not they can give an ETA on a fix is just fanciful thinking on my part.:eek:
I think of it as a game breaking bug as well, as it stops progression, maybe that's why they don't want it fixed, to halt all progress and just keep people milling about, I don't think i will even look at the ships.
It has no point to buy any if the game is broken, they could have made it 50% reduced price and still wont matter if no one can progress past this point, i have 2 accounts and 1 has all my characters at lvl50, so I can say without a doubt that I have done this mission in the past with all, on the other account i keep getting to Mine enemy and canceling it and just doing missions that gain more spending power in game and bugger the zen as there is no point in getting any if progression gets halted from bugs, and I keep trying it to see if it's been fixed and when i do it and find it hasn't been fixed I get to think that whats the point of giving a report on a bug if no one has fixed it but rather update with a 15% off ships.
PADAWAN,, yeah I'm thinking STAR-WARS is looking better,, each time Mine Enemy is a failure to finish, i think,,OK maybe goodbye to STAR-TREK and come back in a year and see if they fixed it.
