This is just ridiculous, same bug that was on tribble and reported to them many times is now on holodeck. GREAT JOB CRYPTIC. I have changed instance more than 20 times and still can't get past this stupid mission. I am not high enough lvl to skip and go to next mission so now i have to try and grind out skill points on the broken pve system to try and lvl up. I hope you will have this fixed with the maintenance today.
this is beyond irritating, how about until you get the damned issue fixed you put a skip in place to auto complete the mission so we can get on with the zone, not being able to do Calvary prevents you from continuing the story on Kobali prime since for some reason all the check points are all tied together. To have to jump around 20 different instances hoping to find one that works is beyond unacceptable.
Yep, I'm stuck on the same bug. I can't skip the mission as I'm not high enough to do the next one and the game's grindy enough without having to grind for skillpoints to be able to skip it. Nor am I going to jump instances constantly till I manage to get into one where it works.
Its a bloody farce if this bug was present on tribble and despite feedback, its still on holodeck now, post patch too.
Looks like I will be waiting a week or whenever the next patch rolls out to see if it actually fixes it.
Its a pity as I was really enjoying the new story content. God knows we've waited long enough for it.
I've now spent nearly an hour hopping from instance to instance trying to find one that was working. No dice.
Since you can't shoot the Kobali, I have been relieving my feelings by venturing out and blowing away some Vaadwaur... at this rate, I might get to level 60 entirely on Vaadwaur slaughtered while waiting for a bugged mission to come unglued.
Seriously, guys: this is blocking storyline progression, so it needs to be fixed - not just an entry in the patch notes saying it's been fixed, I mean actually fixed. Like, for real.
Broken as all get out. I can't figure out what's more annoying people yelling at people in zone chat who don't have zone chat enabled or the fact that the mission is SO buggy I actually had to turn it on just to see if I could find a instance that worked.

Agreed. I'm perma stuck on Recover Wounded Soldiers (2/3) for Defense at the Gates until this is fixed. Its spoiling my fun on Kobali Prime. And I like ground stuff.
I can't take it anymore! Could everyone just chill out for two seconds before something CRAZY happens again?!
The nut who actually ground out many packs. The resident forum voice of reason (I HAZ FORUM REP! YAY!)

I would like to say thank you Cryptic, I was worried that STO would take the majority if not all of my gaming time, but since I cannot progress through story content; I get to level my characters in Defiance (just got the PC Ultimate Pack for 36 bucks on Amazon).
This is the 2nd day I cant progress past this issue... it isnt an "occasional block" as your fix suggests its a major stuff up... zero progression in story line.
Can we get an auto by pass NPC until you actually fix the issue... its not trivial in any manner :mad:
Not only that the storychain gets blocked by a major bug. This is even more funny if you remember that half of the time you are forced to handle with stupid PvE-NPCs to level up at all to get the next mission....
What kind of strategy is this? Bullying players until they rage-quit? Great Beta-Testing, especially if people tell that they reported the same bugs on Tribble!...
It looks like for some reason, the mission doesnt reset. I have had reports that some of my friends have completed it with no issues.
To hopefully help, here is a screenshot of what is happening on the bridge and on my mission list, it might give you ideas or help you solve what is most likely a very nasty bug
The thing is, it is a dead end to hanging out with my man Kim, so that's a problem there; and as only the second part of the mission on Kobali Prime, it's likely there's a fair bit more (including apparently a pretty good cutscene) locked behind it.

Why have you doomed the Kobali to such a hard and horrible fate as this? I mean I understand trapped behind shields and walls, I get hundreds of wounded everyday, morale is low and the urge to fight them off at the bridge is daunting enough as it is... but did you really need to send them Harry Kim to aid them? Just Orbital Bombard the planet and put them out of their misery...
j/k. I like Kim, but this is ridiculous that this was supposedly fixed but it just sits there.
BTW, the planet pisses me off. there is something about the constant noise and gloom that just annoys me in a way Nukara and Deferi never did.
When i get to the bridge i have still got 2 boxs top r/h/c, 1 tells me iv completed it & need to rescue the wounded the other tells me i have not completed it ,,,,,,,,,,,:(
I have just dropped the mission gone back to the bridge & its still telling me iv completed it & just need to rescue the wounded,,,,,,,???????
Beamed to ship then back down did not start the mission went to the bridge & still get the same,,,,,,,,,,,i give up.
Hi guys
I'm facing the same problem! As you can imagine I'm a bit fed up about it too...although I found something quite interesting while I was 'jumping' from one instance to another.
In all but one of the instances you had to 'try' to recover one of the three soldiers.
While in a sole instance you have to 'try' to recover two of the three soldiers.
Cryptic solve the problem, then you will have happy players but if you don't... you will have a Cavalry of fans after you!
Mildly amusing since apparently Cryptic fixed the issue on Tribble, but broke it bringing it over to Holodeck.
All I have for advice is pay attention to zone chat and surely someone will be kind enough to invite you to a working instance. Worked for my main. ...surely the fact she's a hot blonde woman with a clearly feminine name had nothing to do with that. Nothing whatsoever, I'm sure. Though that worked yesterday, not today, so I dunno if they broke all instances now.

It's adorable you think they actually fixed it, because I assure you, it's not fixed.
