Some of the scan spots for the Orion Contraband Daily quest does not register.

Once you scan the initial scan point, 5 target circles appear on your mini map. You then have 1 min 30 secs to scan all 5 points. At least 1 of the scan points do not register. You can only get a total of 4 out of 5 scan marks even if you scan all 5 points. Once you scan the object can no longer be activated.

The crates/containers that had the bug was the 1st set of boxes after you come DOWN the stairs. After you scan the initial object to start the quest, there is a stair case going up... go up that and then go down the 2nd stair case... there is a set of boxes along the wall... these did not trigger the count when I scanned them.

    I've run into this as well.

    Also, the Desert Creatures has a few bugs (and I don't mean scorpions, lol ;) ), sometimes the respawning stops with over 30 seconds left, meaning a lower score and lower payout. And, some beacons seem to be permanently active, there's worms/scorpions already there and they don't stop respawning.

    Even the bugs have bugs! lol :eek::P

    Unfortunately this has been bugged since the release of LoR. And many people have posted in other threads on this subject. It appears that for whatever reason Cryptic hasn't bothered to fix it.

    Yeah, as any others of the thousands of bugs in STO, this is one of the "lucky" ones that is forgotten since ages ago. Welcome to STO.

    I am so angry right now. Where can I view a complete list of known issues and whether or not anybody at Cryptic cares about each?

    You're having your players do a mission that has a 20% chance to fail regardless of the player's actions. You've let this slide for months and I don't recall reading any admission this was happening.

    On that note, did anybody ever admit the rewards for Defense Contract were nerfed with LOR? Sure you let us all discuss among ourselves but did anybody actually say, "yes, we took that reward away and here's why"?

    Hey Brandon, please explain these happenings! What's the spin?
