    Hi Captains,

    We're working on this. Please stand by.

    (Also, apologies for the delay -- the forums are loading slow due to everyone trying to post here at the same time)

    Cheers,

    Brandon =/\=

    So let's tally the score here.

    4th Anniversary = 4 years

    Season 8.5 = content update 8 and a half times

    And every single time there are crashes and massive bugs to be fixed.

    Do you people think you will every get it right the first time anywhere in the future or do we all have to wait for your more competent replacement to take over?

    Star Trek Offline ... Into Darkness ... again [sigh]

    Seriously ... do you need some black and yellow tape around the area between the server and the plug in the wall?

    Did anyone NOT anticipate the server load that is seen every time a new season [or even a half season] is released?

    [sigh]

    Cryptic Dev: Bran Flakes, may I speak with you please?!
    Bran Flakes: Yes, Sir!
    Cryptic Dev: How can there be downtime while we're still in the middle of fixing things!?
    Bran Flakes: Oh, that's true, Sir, but there's been a new breakthrough in PWE marketing.
    Cryptic Dev: There has?
    Bran Flakes: Yes! Instant Bugs. They're out in the patch before the game is released!
    Cryptic Dev: Nah!
    PWE Execl: Here it is, sir! "Season 8.5"!

    so by "we work on it" you mean "we hope people get bored or go to sleep so the servers can take the lighter stress" i see.

    RnD and upgrade needs less RNG. Less lottery. Something has to change.

    *sigh* lil bit disappointed, I haven't had a chance to run the mission and will most likely miss out on a days run, nm might just give up on the ships

    you have 9 of 10 days free from the 25 days open and your giving on the ships that only need 15 days? :P

    Live video from the Cryptic server room? :P

    lol, nice, but yeah. Some of the unbridled RAAAAAAAGGGGGE that people somehow think is productive on the forums at times like this always reminds me of that kid was really what I was getting at. ;) My whole point is don't be 'that guy' and just chill. It's a game, it's not the end of reality as we know it or some-such so there's no point in ranting over it. :cool:

    Perhaps bashing the servers with a hammer will fix it

    No... that was the solution for Season 7

    Sounds like it is time for the old joke again,

    What do you get when you cross Star Trek Online with Neverwinter?

    Dear PWE,

    Somewhere in your IT organization there is this one person. Everyone hates them, and right now they are circulating emails saying "I told you so" to anyone who will listen.

    Go find this person, and implement whatever network or server recommendations he or she has been saying you've needed to do for months now.

    Every time something like this happens, it is because a manager made a decision that an engineer should have made.

    Fix this. Before I take my money elsewhere.

    You will be fine for the anniversary ship. After you complete the FE you get 400 qmmendations which leaves you 600 more to get, which if you play daily it will take 15 days. The event in totally (but due to current state may it be extended) runs for 25 days so you will still have 9 days spare :)

    like the title says, is this normal. only installed the game tonight, and sofar the login screen looks very pretty.
    Absolutely not, I've been playing since beta and this is the third of fourth time the servers crashed. It may have been caused by an overload of players entering the game and the system had no time to automaticly kick some off. The end result was the servers crashing. I'm sorry that you had to experence this after only playing the game for(assumingly) for minutes.

    What you just said makes no difference, they're working as hard as possible, respect that.
