    Xindi lockbox. its was leaked weeks ago.

    just google xindi lockbox and you'll see all the info you're gonna get until pwe/cryptic have finished getting the server back up from after patch crashes.

    Devblogs were confusing new players, bloating the download needed to view the page and ultimatly not up to cryptics current standards. We're much better off without them!

    [Redacted] lockbox. its was leaked weeks ago.

    just google [Redacted] lockbox and you'll see all the info you're gonna get until pwe/cryptic have finished getting the server back up from after patch crashes.

    Of cause it was, but in case you didn notice, threads that had [Redacted] Info have been immediatly closed... Why do you think so many threads have had the "[Redacted]" Every where?

    Maybe that's the beginning of the apocalypse. Words disappear first, then exploration cluster, Memory Alpha, then who knows ? Bees, dolphins, mouses and finally us ?
    It's very scary if you think about it.

    That leaks site provided more information for me.

    It would be better if devs provide game info on that site than twitter or any other social stuff.
    Shame that ppl got confused and lost in devblogs so that blogs got deleted to improve sto website quality. :(

    Try phrasing it like this if you want to be listened to:

    I am outraged that Smirk chose to release the date of Season 9.5 through twitter
    I am also angry at cryptic for the reasons they used when removing exploration clusters, and the idea the new players could get lost in them

    I happen to disagree I am really annoyed at the lack of them, especially with regards to the lockbox, cant say I ever found one confusing either. and "bloating the download" that would be the thing that still leaves us at the exact same number of 'boxes' on the page thus losing them has changed nothing.

    You do realize that he was sarcastically joking with the statement that the removal of the clusters were necessary because they confused players... Right?

    Yeah, a blog about what's new would be a really nice thing to read while the server is down.
