    Successful?

    All we got is a couple of nice missions, a couple!

    The rest is crappy patrol missions thrown up by Foundry over a w/e.

    Bugs galore too, everytime i change map my tray empties still, how long has this bug been around yet you didnt bother to fix it for launch of a new season.

    It is a disaster and players are already not logging in, this is to try to make the new season good with lots of players around when there only there for the Lobi.

    The most successful, ever ? Really ? Fascinating. ;)

    Well it has been a rather a smooth run compared to LoR maybe that is why the consider it the most successful. Never mind that some people can't get in, it is less than LoR, or the bugs, or the over tuned NPCs, or the.,.......

    Their idea of what is a success and what isn't obviously differes from mine. Even though I have had a smooth run compared to LoR, with things that should never of made it live and some of the problems people are having. It takes someone with no shame to call it the most successful.

    A whole 60 Lobi Crystals? wow. Would someone wake me when the part where we're supposed to get enthused about this abundance of wealth shows up? Wouldn't want to miss it. 7.5% of the total cost of a Lobi Store ship.
    woo hoo.

    Will celebrate when the PvE queues make some moderate sense again. I would like to be able to play on advanced and not expect failure as the normal outcome.

    We're celebrating the release of Delta Rising with gifts for everyone! The Lobi Crystal Consortium is releasing Lobi for players who log in each day this weekend! Enjoy Captains!

    Learn more about it here.

    ~LaughingTrendy

    I wonder how successful the launch REALLY was?? Considering the whole Romulan sector is on lockdown and the celebration blog is bologne considering 60 lobis is not worth much.

    Cryptic should be more forthcoming and shouldn't have decided to make Holodeck the test environment with loads of bugs.

    Just saying.

    "Thank you all for making Delta Rising the most successful update ever for Star Trek Online"

    Oh look, my moron detector just went to critical with that statement.

    Make your choice, fellow Romulan. Side with the Federation, or side with the super awesome I'm-totally-not-biased-towards KDF.

    So you can't put 1 (temporary) NPC in New Romulus Command? Funny how you can manage it for Q's Winter Event...
    Anything that happens, happens. Anything that in happening, causes something else to happen, causes something else to happen. Anything that in happening, causes itself to happen again, happens again.
    It doesn't necessarily do it in chronological order though.

    Even though I didn't have to wait a couple days for the server stability updates to happen for the last Expansion, I find it hard to believe that this Expansion was greater than the last. On top of that, I think we got more Lobi the last time during the Featured Episode re-run when they gave out 10 Lobi a day for completing 1 mission.

    Whatever, not gonna argue with free Lobi.

    Cryptic,

    Although I am always glad to get free lobi crystals:), a total of 60 lobi is a huge downgrade from last year.:(

    Last year, players were able to earn between 500-600 lobi crystals for completing daily feature episodes. 500 crystals could be earned of you logged in daily (24 hour period) and close to 600 if you logged in every 20 hours, after the timer expired.

    Regardless, this is close to a 90% downgrade from last year. So, for 2015 can we expect 6 free lobi crystals?

    I guess this is not a very successful year for Cryptic after all, or maybe STO player appreciation is less important this year.

    While I won't complain about free lobi, I still feel it's a feeble attempt to appease the masses. Not sure it will work, there is more they could have done instead.

    For one, how about the missions that have no combat give a little more XP to make up for the lack of kills (we're looking at you disable patrol missions). Better yet make them all worthwhile and you wouldn't have had people power leveling in Japori. Give the non-combat "disable" patrols Diplomacy XP as well.

    200 Zen for 1000 bonus XP LMAO Ok, why don't you take them out of the C-Store, because there will be no point in buying them after tomorrow.

    FYI, Cryptic/PWE....Never underestimate the MMO Gamers' ability to chew through content. You can keep "quarantining Zones" but all you're doing is alienating your player base. You can't milk the whales if they simply leave out of frustration.

    I looked at the queues this morning and there weren't maybe a hundred people in a STF. Telling tale eh? Even at 6AM EST I used to be able to get in an ISE, CCE, FFA, or UI from 20 seconds to 1 minute and there was always 50+ in separate ISEs.

    Foundry missions capped at ~5k XP = Lame. I understand not wanting it to be a power leveling platform, but I got that before wave 2 ended, next time I will simply leave after wave 2. I say reduce it to 25xp/kill after the bonus is completed or at least get expertise

    OK, I'm placated for another weekend...it's not quite enough to offset missing the Lobi ship sale, but it's enough to get my last Dyson EV suit upgrade... :rolleyes:

    EDIT: Now that I've had time to review today's general threads, it's obvious that this gesture is a measure of apology for the rapid proliferation of bugs that are now being reported. A tacit admission by Cryptic that they are incompetent to control their code, and produce a quality (bug-free) game... :(

    WOW, do I feel silly for taking almost a year off in the last 4. Not only did I miss the dyson warp core in the lol sci ship, but 500-600 lobi ? Makes the 200 on my account over 4 years just a freekin joke.

    You are thinking of the Featured Episode Replay Event. That is an entirely different ball of wax than this. (Also it is ball of wax that most likely will roll around again.)

    While whether or not 60 lobi is generous enough is something that could be argued, you are comparing apples and oranges.

    Is this referring to the effectiveness of the new participation-countermeasures? They seem to be working very well indeed.
