damn its not working for me after the 3-4 gb download
The download is 10 GB's. Create a new shortcut and then right click then. Then click on properties. Under target hit space after the " and copy -patchserver patchserverrebirth.crypticstudios.com
Once you are done it should look something like "C:\Program Files (x86)\Cryptic Studios\Star Trek Online.exe" -patchserver patchserverrebirth.crypticstudios.com

I wonder, does this patch come with a digital copy of wishstone?
Would be way more authentic.
Well, we would need the old forums back for that, Hank. And hell, why we're at it, the entire old website.
I will say, that even though I've had troubles getting it to work (and honestly I don't mind), I'd gladly P.A.Y. for such a 'classic' server to remain up.
Actually, now that I think about it...the game not working at all at launch...? That's...that's exactly as it's supposed to be! It's a very faithful recreation of it!
I remain empathetic to the concerns of my community, but do me a favor and lay off the god damn name calling and petty remarks. It will get you nowhere.
I must admit, respect points to Trendy for laying down the law like that.
played all day at work ...can't wait to get home and level up some more and do a pvp match
I felt the same way. I only managed to play the tutorial. For the first time in years I couldn't wait to rush home, start up STO and level my character for some oldfashioned pewpew - but when I finally arrived, the game was down for maintenance and I fear that Rebirth (the best expansion ever and this player loves it) might be gone when the server goes back up.

Not sure why they would tease us for what equates to a few hours only to rip it down. Zero said it took a lot of doing just to get this done. So why go through all that trouble just for one half day? Btw they said it's unstable but I haven't had a single problem with it minus the fact that it won't load my test keybind file. Which is understandable considering half the keybinds didn't exist back then. So I just did them manually no problem. I have yet to witness what part of unstable this is. I see no reason to take it down since redshirt is mostly useless anyway.
Would be kinda funny seeing people who ignored vpvp show up here for pvp though. Ironic yet comical in many ways. I certainly hope this stays up indefinitely to give certain "pvpers" a chance to put up over here. But to play devils advocate here I can see most of us ending up in sci ships using viral matrix 3.

well they could make that "pvp shard" (all mmos have that ) and make it official.It would be cheap you know...I dont need updates lol
Account server is working again, but the launcher only shows Holodeck and Tribble
But since they have now proved that it is possible to put an old build on a server, maybe we should really push for a S1.2 shard. I'm willing to pay a fee for getting access to such a thing.
can't ask much from some people who got a game already made by others who left and only milked it.
wether you like the game, or the changes they have made, they certainly didnt just take a game made by others and milk it.. the old code was messy, inconsistent and less than ideal, and while there are still many issues, there has been alot done, Legacy of Romulus alone was like a whole new game. my guess.. this rebirth patch on redshirt is there to remind, or show folks, what the game has evolved from. yeah it was great having a play on the original, but as it stands now, bugs aside it has come a long way and looks amazing. Ok, Delta Rising may not have been all it could be, failing to meet the expectations of many and really not building on the foudation LOR laid out.. and that was very likely down to the decisions of a single person.
S10 is around the corner, there is a new person at the helm, and things really do feel to be looking up, at least enough to bring me back to the game after a good few months away, and judging by some other posts i have read, im not the only person returning. the corporation may be out to milk the player base, thats capitalism for you and no espcaping it, but the guys and girls that actually put the work into the game arn't. looking forward to seeing what they have put together for us.
"there is little sense, judging the future, on the failings of the past, while currently enjoying the present.."
*obviously this doesn't apply to pvpers as their game was killed off seasons ago

It's just going to be more grind and more 1h unchallenging episodes. If you like those, I'm happy for you. I like PvP, and they've killed it more or less slowly over multiple seasons. Rebirth was a chance to enjoy grindless and (more or less) balanced PvP that's not been seen since the launch of LoR.
I am not looking forward to the future because the direction of the game is clear to me and I don't like it.

Excuse me, but I am not downloading 10GB's all over again just to start from level 1.
If this is an april fool's joke, it's a bit late, and I'm not seeing humor in it.
No, ofcourse they're not shutting down Holodeck server. It was an April-fools thing. And yeah, now it's late but it was on time yesterday. :P
They did however open the launch version of STO on Redshirt server for a day for nostalgic reasons, but that seems to be over as well.
So don't worry, you'll pick up your chars on Holodeck after the patch from right where you left them.

I don't like the present game, the past game was much better and the future will be worse than what we have now.
oh in that sense i totally agree, pvp has been dead for ever, im really suprised there are any players left that still hold out any expectation for that to change, let alone bother to login or post about it. maybe i should have put a caveat with my post, but i honestly didnt expect any pvpers to be here to read it

Ya they could have, but from the way the talk they didn't expect it to work at all.
And it's a blast doing the Vega tutorial again, and killing Klinks in Sector Enemy Contacts.
Please Cryptic keep it up!
oh nice thanks for that. It's working now

gone wrong or not I'd actually spend money to play that.Heck they can update till and stop @season 5...they will sure get my money.
sad part is they will remove it.
Until they do, I'll be having some nostalgia-fueled fun. It's more than the Holodeck game is giving me.
played all day at work ...can't wait to get home and level up some more and do a pvp match
pitty we can't chat with people there .

Apart from some balancing issues that I'm sure there was at the time. My poor memory fails me again, but I suspect some Sci powers are very strong.
compared to holodeck sci powers are fine lol

That really sucks. I don't want to return to DR after playing Rebirth.
well guess is back to my other games.
