Chel Grett still trying to charge me 1000 pics...

nice try Cryptic, but you didn't fix anything. I tried talking to Q as recommended but that did nothing. Oh and the obvious, yes I do own it on one of my other toons, have the screenies to prove it as well.

    Yep - and it took 6 hours to do nothing! Fantastic.

    I assume this is not fixable as we got our first ships 2 years ago from the old system. Some sort of token will have to be introduced if we're lucky.

    log into a toon that has the ship 1st and talk to Q... then switch and see if it's been fixed.

    even before the patch my alts can get the cruiser for only 40 pics... didnt own the escort so dont know about that.

    Q has nothing to say to me. If I were Picard perhaps. But no, there is nothing changed about the Q interactions.

    Tried. Didnt do anything.

    Logged in every toon, including two who have the ship from the first year. 1 of whom still has it packed, the other who was flying it for most of that year (the Chel Grett.) Talked to Q in both zones. Nothing new. Relogged, changed zones. Tried slotting and cancelling each of the projects. Still 1,000 on all toons (even the ones who already have it.)

    So, I must be missing something, or the change doesnt work.
    Updated ship discount functionality for the Breen Plesh Brek heavy frigate and Breen Chel Grett warship.

    Players who had previously completed the projects to claim one of these ships should be able to unlock their account discount after they talk to Q, or upon acquiring another ship.

    People get confused because the NPC Chel Gret is labeled as a cruiser, while the playable one is considered a destroyer.

    The dress is gold and white. Over 70% people says so. When viewed from a certain screen angle it appears blue and black. The dress displayed on amazon is a blue and black dress, but it's not the same dress in the picture. If you're seeing blue & black you're slightly colored blind. A normal upright screen = white and gold.

    Yeah, still trying to charge me 1k for my alts despite logging in on my main who earned it.

    I'm just going to go ahead and assume the power trays rearranging themselves being fixed is similarly as reliable information. :rolleyes:

    Yup still trying to charge me a thousand q pics as well. And I have that darn ship on two of my main toons. Ticket has been submitted but im sure the event will be well over before it gets read.

    Yep still the same here. 3 toons have the Chel Grett and the 4th that doesn't is still saying 1000 pics. Not sure what it is going to take to get it fixed, but wish someone at Crypic would at least say something. I have been running the race on the toon anyways just in case they can't or don't care about fixing it. I just don't like being told it is suppose to work one way and I am having to do it another.

    oh so this is the 1st ship... the raider/escort? the 1st year it was up it had a different claim method right, it didnt use the photos. probably need to claim it with the photos 1st... yes 1000 of them... then it'll unlock.

    Players who had previously completed the projects...

    We need to bear in mind that those of us who got the ship the first year did it before the reputation system and before there were "projects" to collect it. Personally I've been working under the assumption that us 1st year people won't get a discount and have been running the race daily on all 10 toons. I know I only need 3 to get all three ships, but what the hell, there's always the requirements for next year I can save up for.

    Anyway, I haven't heard Cryptic say anything about 1st year people, just the people who completed the "Project" last year to collect the ships, which was also broken. So while they did fix it for those people, it's hard to say what will come of this for those of us 1st year folks.

    Nope, 1st year was the Breen Chel Grett Warship. The second year (after they implemented the reputation system) was the Breen Plesh Brek Heavy Raider.

    well i didnt pick up the raider last year... only did the cruiser... this year I had 2 toons with over 600 to start with... so yeah one will hammer out the raider and the other the carrier.

    worse case.. 40 a day for 25 days. still have time even if you start today.

    You know 2 years ago I would have done it with a smile on my face but the slippery language of the patch notes has me really ticked off. I was expecting this not to work for us old-timers. I wish they would just come out and say that the first year people are sol. I won't be using the set anyway but it would be nice to have in case some day they make it decent.

    So... people who ground out the Chel Gret the first time it was available don't get the discount or is this still bugged?

    No Joke? This has been a major issue for me cause I just hated re-slotting everything each time I transition from group map to space cause I park on a ground map when I join ques... easier to sell and bank and do repairs

    assuming its because the t5u fiasco stretching its claws out into the christmas event.:rolleyes:

    I don't think it has anything to do with t5-u. They just didn't update something concerning the ship and the new rep system and those of us who have been around since that ship's event are getting screwed because of their lack of competency in their own code.

    As for the tray 'fix', give it at most a month, it'll be back to TRIBBLE up. Wosrt case, next Thursday's patch breaks it again....don't laugh it's happened before.

    Someone in Zone chat today said they had this problem and fixed it.

    I can't verify this.. I haven't tried it.

    They said what they did was slot the project for 1000 pictures. They then cancelled it, and once cancelled the project for 40 pictures was available.

    Maybe you can try that, I hope it works.

    Count me in to. I agree however with the reasons for this being broken.

    I got the Chell Grett when it was first put out. When people more cared about the Bug ship... but now we have had the ship for a LONG time. So we had it notably before the reputation system.

    I have a Breen Energy Dissapator on one toon, although i would like to be able to get it on another for dirt cheap.

    So I submitted a ticket... hoping they see that I linked the item as proof of my having the ship earned... But we will see. If they do not fix it... Then i guess Dear Leader does not want me to have one...

    Yeah, they just acknowledged in the bug forum that old players from first year are screwed on this.

    I feel like a bad party guest who doesn't get the 'get out loser' hint.
