Hello My name is Captinwh0 and you may remember me by such threads as
*"help i cant get out of ESD" http://sto-forum.perfectworld.com/sh....php?t=1241111
We got stuck in ESD during the tutorial, we made 2 ferrengi's and we immediately got ourselves so trapped that not even smirk could get us out! (Typical Ferengi move:D)
this happened by us beaming to ESD too Early, so they fixed it
*patch notes*
Federation players cannot leave Starfleet Academy until completing the skip version of the tutorial.
Previously, players could get stuck if they left Starfleet Academy prior to finishing the skip tutorial process.
If a player is stuck in the following zones, there is now an interact option with these points to allow access back to Starfleet Academy:
ESD
Sol System
Sirius Sector
But Now because of us, you get trapped in the academy!
if you are doing the tutorial, and beam to the academy Before talking to quinn, you get trapped, and you cant accept next mission or resolve current one, and you cant beam to ESD. same predicament, but now EVERYONE it trapped
So i am so sorry guys!
and also you got to admit its kinda funny that a couple of ferengi's broke the game:D
ps if you are a romulan, get an invite to a star-base and use transwarp gateway to get out, or accept "Helix" mission and trans-warp out for free

If you're enjoying the 'Hotel California' (a lovely place to visit, but you can never leave...) interpretation of Starfleet Academy. Just start a 'Replay' episode mission, then use the 'Transwarp' mission feature to leave. Once you're at the mission start point, you can drop the mission. And some of 'Replay' missions, such as the intro to the Dyson Sphere, has ZERO Transwarp costs...
Yeap, Vulcan trapped here too... any clues?
I cannot take new missions or warp or anything...
And now I want to create a toon called "Troy McClure" and go around the universe saying stuff like that
Someone got it!
[SIGPIC]Click here to visit my STO YouTube channel[/SIGPIC]
I had to transwarp back to Tau Dewa in the end... Even exiting and reloading STO did not fix the issue...
Any other ideas?
And to Cryptic (because I've really had enough of the developer incompetence): FFS, FIX THIS! ARE YOU REALLY THIS INCOMPETENT? Honest to god, how can you not be embarrassed at this kind of thing?
I bet if the store buttons would stop working...they would be fixed in no time...And they dare send me emails for this and that deal in this game hehe.
I honestly believe that with making this game less casual-friendly with Delta Rising, and idiocy like trapping new players at Starfleet Academy, PWE and Cryptic are trying to kill the game so they just don't have to deal with it any longer.
You are, aren't you? It's the only explanation for this kind of stupidity.
Did you skip the tutorial or did you actually do it?
I did two tests one with a human the other with a vulcan and both ofthem skipped the tutorial and i made it to ESD no problem. I started a Tellerite and tried to do the tutorial but i got bored and didnt make it past the tutorial where you shoot the sattelites.
and yes, it happend to me too.
You can beam between Starfleet Academy & ESD, but you can exit to space. The way my issue got resolved was that I transported back to the Academy and then used the bottom lower right side tab to go to sector space, not into the SOl system.
I chose the Sol system before and could not even enter sector space through there. So yes this a new BUG and needs to be reported to their QA team, or in this case person.
This is equally annoying as the BUG that keeps un-equipping my ship consoles and weapons, and resetting my skill bars. I think it may have to do with the "DEFUNCT" Loadout system in which perhaps they may be semi-working on.
the key to replicating this bug is going to the academy BEFORE talking to quinn
