I've been playing less than a year so didn't have anything from the last winter wonderland, and despite unlocking each of the ships on different characters, none of them are available at a discount. Be glad if you get anything for 40 photos.

So you're reporting that not even the Sarr Theln is giving the discount?
This is also affecting the plesh brek raider, in case nobody's mentioned it yet. Not reading 25 pages.
I just did the 1000 raider project with my klink and claimed it, and my alts (all fed and rom) can't get it for 40. It worked fine for the chel grett and the carrier but the raider is stuck at 1000 for my alts.
They could just give 1000 pics per race and everybody interested in the Ships could get them easy. No problematic bugfixing involved. Next year they can just use different pictures.
Most people expected it weeks ago...they're hoping that it goes this week otherwise it's not going without an extension. Try reading the forums before posting...
Sorry for the newbie question,but today i finally get the 1000 pics for my escort tactical tier 6 ship,should i claim it with my main and just wait for the issue to be fixed then claim the same ship (heard i cant change the type which is a shame since i wanted a science vessel for my other alt) with my other characters? Already have the 40 pics stored in the bank.
Maybe i could give it a try thou,heard that only some people get this bug,not all of them.
Thanks for the response and happy new year
P.S:English isnt my native language so sorry for any misspelling hehe
No need to apologize in the least, in my humble opinion, for asking a question - and - no need to label it a newbie question at that.
Doing the project for the Chel Grett (warship) will only unlock the discount for the Chel Grett. Unfortunately at this moment, many people appear to be having an issue where if they got the Chel Grett the first year they are not getting the discount for characters with this year's event. Many people that have done the project for the Chel Grett for the first time with this event are also not getting the discount. Personally, I have not seen many complaints from folks that did it the second year - but that does not mean there are not any people experiencing that issue.
The same goes for doing the project for the Plesh Brek (heavy raider) and the Sarr Theln (carrier). They only unlock the discount for that particular ship.
Like the Chel Grett, I have not personally seen many complaints of people that unlocked the Plesh Brek last year. The people that ran it for the first time this year, there have been many people experiencing an issue of no discount being applied.
This was the first year for the Sarr Theln, and I can't remember seeing more than a couple of confusing complaints raised about it as to whether the discount applied for them or not.
They started on a fix for it back at the start of the event when the issues were first reported, but it didn't make it out before they went on holidays (happy new to you as well, by the way). With the event ending on the 15th, meaning that it ends before the server goes down for maintenance - the hope is that the fix is pushed out this Thursday, as it is the last scheduled maintenance before the event ends. Otherwise, with the current fix they have in place on the test server - if it is not pushed out before the 15th, they would have to extend the event for the fix to work. Can't talk to Q if Q isn't there to talk to sort of thing.

i'd suggest waiting for a while. you can still claim the ship(s) around the end of the event, when it might get fixed and allow you to get them for discount for all your alts.
if it's still not fixed until jan 14, then it should be ok to claim the bugged ships since other than a possible event extension there's a good chance it won't be fixed this year, so at least some of your characters will have the ship until next year.
Now clowns, that's another story. They scare the crap out of me.
We fight them too. Entire armies spilling out of Volkswagens.
We do our best to fight them off, but they keep sending them in.
Actually, they did fix it. Tribble has had multiple fix methods that were confirmed to be fully-WORKING since the start of the event. But ARE they going to make the fix live on Holodeck? Now that is a different issue.
I got the Grett the first year will all 8 toons i had at the time, then last year up to 13 toons and picked up the raider. Now this year one of the 5 who didn't get the Grett just finished running the 25 races still no discount.
My first Winter Event in STO - I joined the game in early 2014. Just finished all 3 Ships. Never got any of current winter ships before. Got Discount for T6 carrier and still need 1 000 pics to get Grett and Plesh on alts.
Yeah. The fix exists on Tribble, but they're not going to pull it over to Holodeck until probably next week the 8th. Why? Because right now, there's probably a large number of people mass-buying keys for lobi to trade in for Q Items to burn up to another 1000 to get their ship due to the discount not working, I wouldn't be surprised in the slightest if Cryptic were simply riding this out letting it go on for as long as possible to see how much they make from it.
Haven't read through all the pages in this thread, but got myself an odd bug with the Plesh Bek raider and the Chell Grett warship.
I slotted the 1000 pictures for the Plesh Bek and obtained it. However none of my other characters got the discount on the Plesh Bek. But they did get the discount on Chell Grett. Which is very odd, since I hadn't claimed that ship on a single one of my characters.
So you want a Caitian science officer? Not a very good idea, after all curiosity killed the cat.

I never unlocked any of the ships until THIS year, never on previous years and I still did not get a discount of any ship but the carrier. I unlocked all 3 on different characters, didn't matter, no discount for raider or chell. Has nothing to do with unlocking in previous years.
The discount on the new carrier T6 ships works. This ship was introduced this year.
The discount on the 2 older ships (raider and warship), is not yet working, if you got them for the first time through the rep system this year.
That's the summary so far.
I'm very pleased that it seems to work on tribble, but that says nothing about when and how it will be fixed on holodeck. I don't care about rumours. I want a changelog for holodeck. No less - no more.

I did the Plesh Brek raider this year. There was NO account wide unlock. It remains at 1000 pictures required for all characters.
Had leftover pictures from last year, so got the Sarr Theln for my primary, then used the discount to pick up the Sarr Theln for my Romulan. Very pleased with the carrier's performance for my Rom engineer, so I ran the race on her to get the raiders and get the upgraded hangar pets. Got the raider (still haven't got enough dil to get the pets), then thought it might be nice to have the upgraded pets on my primary. No discount, despite unlocking it on my Romulan. It's not a big disappointment personally (I was given the fleet Oddy pack for Christmas), but having the raider pets would be nice for my other engineer. I suppose I can wait until they fix it, but if you were hoping for the upgraded carrier pets on multiple characters, I can see where that would be a big issue. Not WAI.
"Susse-thrai" had been the name bestowed upon her, half in anger, half in affection, by her old crew on Bloodwing; the keen-nosed, cranky, wily old she-beast, never less dangerous than when you thought her defenseless, and always growing new teeth far back in her throat to replace the old ones broken in biting out the last foe's heart. Romulans: left one homeworld, lost another, third time's the charm?
At beginning of Winter event Smirk said that we all get unlock discount on all Breen ships for this event. As we all know this is a issue which isn't resolved yet. Watch selected timestamp which someone reposted what smirk said on live stream.
As we all know there will only be one more maintenance before the event ends. This issue need to be resolved a.s.a.p. otherwise this community will be very upset.

Fingers crossed it will by Thursday as I have 20 toons that need that ship!
There are fixes inbound, and they should go live this week. Keep an eye on the patch notes to be sure.
Awesome, was hoping this would be the case -- thanks for letting us know
Thanks Cryptic. Now will the rest of you give it a rest and wait for the Thursday patch?
Thank you.
Thanks for the update
