    does anyone have a solution to this? or do we have to wait until the next patch? for the issue with the BSOA (Black Screen Of Annoyance)

    Hello all

    I had this log crash bug too, but i solved my problem with an upgrade of my graphic driver

    (Nvidia Geforce 600 series)

    I still have an error message but i can log and play the game.

    Hope this help someone.

    Last time I had crashing problems I went through the games log files and found a file that was crashing the system every time it loaded. This was like a patch or two ago this happened to me but after finding and deleting the corrupted file the game downloaded a new copy and I got in with no problems. You have to be good at going through other peoples log files though as well as lucky enough the problem gets logged before the program exits. :D

    Another thing to prove Cryptic cannot do anything right i have just purchased a ship upgrade token but accidently bought it on my fed character so went to put it in my account bank as it is now bound to character and it has vanished. No upgrade token in bank or inventory. I was going to buy the Dauntless and Raptor for my KDF and Fed and just upgrade my rom bird of prey but this shows that you don't deserve the money I have for them. I probably will not get the zen or the token back but these bugs should have been sorted before expansion was released

    Gotta love it, new season released and I've crashed to desktop just about everytime I've played the beginning mission "Mindscape" hopefully they will get this fixed, never crashed before and even with the update still crashes.

    Posted this Comment on Facebook to but of Course they Deleted it 5 Mins later, you dont like the Reality / Facts do you Cryptic / PW? You can Delete my and others Posts, but that will not make ALL the Hords of ENRAGED Players (many of them Rage Quited your Game now anyway) Silent, they WILL Continue Complaining, the Forums will also be filled more and more with Complains and hate towars the Ridicilous Changed that you made, Taking away the Purple Mk XI / XII Rewards from the STFs, Cutting their Dill Reward by Half?! (While at the same time bringing more Dill Sinks into the Game) rising up the Dificulty to a ABSURD Level? Many People asked for more Challenging STFs......so the best thing to do would be LEAVE Normale as it is, Rename the old Elite to the new Advanced and other than that also LEAVE IT as it was, and add the new Elite with much higher Difficulty, THERE YOU GO, Everyone is happy! But NO you totaly Smashed everything left right and Center and Changed a Running System for People ( the Majority) who Liked it, just to Satisfy a Small to Mid Sized Group of total Elitist wo want that Extreme Challenge! With Season 7 You Nerfed the Game Heavily, than People where OUTRAGING, so you changed things Partialy back, so why do you assume that they (me included) will like those Changes now?! Why are you always try to Anger your Playerbase?????I Thought this Game is for US your Players, than why those Moves????? WHY DO YOU HAVE TO DESTROY THE GAME THAT WE LOVE BIT BY BIT?!!!!!! I started the Game a little before Season 7, and Since than, Spend a Tremendous Amount of Time Playing it (around 16 Hours per day, 32 LEVEL50 Chars) and some good Money (Just Spend 50€ a few weeks agoo for the Bortasque 3 Pack and iam a Lifer) Star Trek Online is my Favourite Game and the Favourite Game of many of my Contacts ( Including my Fiancee that i meet in this Game from Canada i Live in Germany!) DAMN i build up a Second Live in Star Trek Online, now i have to Watch how you Guys DESTROY my Second Home / Life / Experience, WHATS WRONG WITH YOU???? Yea with Delta Rising (also Called Dilithium Rising by many People) you gave us some nice new Story Missions, and other Nice Goodys = GOOD, but on the other Hand you NERF the Game and take away things from us = BAD, i ask you again WHY?! Dou you hate your Player Base that Much that you have to do this whenever you Bring some new Content (like Expensions) to the Game??? Dont you Realize that you Drive more and more Players away from the Game? and not just Casual Gamers, no ELITE Players who like me Spend Huge Time and also Money over the Years Rage Quited the Game in Sheer Numbers because of your NEGATIVE Changes over and over again, is that your Goal? Trying to get rid of as much Players as Possible? DIE Hard Fanboys will stay much longer (iam a HUGE Star Trek fan.....would explain why iam still here even with all your Torture Changes) but even they will sooner or Later, turn their Backs on you and look for another Place to Spend their Money and Time, will you than Realize the ERROR of your Actions? Yea? FYI That will be TOO Late! WAKE UP CRYPTIC AND PW, the Path you Choose is the WRONG ONE, you are out of TRACK better make an U TURN before its to late, at least if you have the slightest Love for the Game and care at least a little Bit for the Playerbase!

    Try looking for the upgrade token in the R&D tab of your personal inventory.

    I've been able to play up to promotion to level 52, but I've spent more time rebooting my laptop (having it forced upon me would be a better description). The game loads, I get to the character selection screen and get to the location of the mission.....that's where it starts to go bad......

    The game stops responding, the screen flickers (this is after I get the video drivers and Sprite Buffer failures), and then the screen turns black....and BAM! I'm restarting my computer....

    I love the new story im only lvl 55 at the moment so ive still got some todo.

    I like meny players am not happy with a other dill nerf plus the massive boost u gave to the old elite missions.

    But as ive payed for "F" all since LoR im not the person ur market this game to any more and im still not spending "F" all because of a other update with massive nerfs.
    Every dam season half of it is about nerfing things why not spend the time it takes to nerf rewards making something new you get players say i like this instead of ripping in too U

    My only criticisms relate to the gameplay system alterations like:
    nerfed queue rewards applied to increased duration missions and bloated hitpoints
    or
    diminished progression applied to a vast variance in effective level (up to 45 active Specialization Points, 4 Starship Mastery Levels, and 4 Starship Traits in addition to your actual Level)
    or
    imbalances between available ship options and Starship Trait pools between the factions
    or
    structural changes that introduce disincentives to build, equip, and progress multiple characters and builds

    The game systems are wonky, but the actual Delta Quadrant has been rather good... I really enjoy witnessing the consequences of what Janeway et al did during their previous trip. To give credit where credit is due, the missions are solid and I praise the work that went into them, regardless of any reservations I have about the rest of the Expansion.

    Even having getting used to STF's again; I forgot what it was like to feel a noob again :eek:

    To all of you who are experiencing Log-in problems...

    I don't know how many of you currently don't have Arc, but Delta Rising won't work without it. Its possible at least some of you aren't able to log in because DR requires Arc.

    We were waiting to see how Cryptic would force Arc on us, this is it.

    Would love to play all the content you folks are raving about, but there are too many graphics issues at the moment that the Cryptic/PWE team are ignoring for me and so many other players to actually enjoy the game...

    One thing I dislike is having the sounds coming from other ships while the cutscene is being played. Kinda ruins the experience.

    Positive update from me...

    the usual 'turn it off and on again' style auto-reply from support wasn't doing anything, butI was able to log into Safe Mode a few times and so decided to have a fiddle there.

    Problem seemed to lie in the settings for me - went back to default settings to match safe mode and noting worked. I eventually had to set the video mem limit to auto, and tailor everything else very specifically to get it to work.

    It's very sluggish compared to how it was running before - but it's running. Thats a start.

    ....of course there could have been an update I missed and this was pointless :p

    Negative

    This expansion definitively excluded escorts from the game.


    PVP:
    - cruisers deal more damage and have stronger shields and hull, also they don't have to aim so their weapons are always on the target, finally cruisers don't have problems against fighters due to BFAW.

    - science vessels deal more damage and have stronger shields, also their science skills are way too powerful.

    definitively, escorts don't stand a chance.


    PVE:
    - enemies have too strong shields and hull, so escorts (that are glass cannons ... ora at least WERE glass cannons, now are glass TRIBBLE) can't kill them in time and got killed.

    but, guess what: cruisers and science vessels are the easy way out.
    Strong shields, strong hull, awesome skills, MORE FIREPOWER (which is against the very base of this game) ...

    now I got a question for you:
    How do you think I feel now ?

    I spent years gathering dil to buy my Fleet Ha'Feh (with Haakona parts) and elite fleet weapons and stuffs.

    HOW DO YOU THINK I FEEL NOW ?
