    If it's anything like the regular seasonal update, my guess is at 1430 GMT/0700 Pacific Time for about 4 hours, +2 if it's a bad day.

    This program, though reasonably normal at times, seems to have a strong affinity to classes belonging to the Cat 2.0 program. Questerius 2.7 will break down on occasion, resulting in garbage and nonsense messages whenever it occurs. Usually a hard reboot or pulling the plug solves the problem when that happens.

    if you think rubberbanding and logouts were bad last 30 days, you're about to find out what bad really means in few hours when the server comes back online.
    Well you're a genuine optimist....

    Shouldn't that have been "if the server comes back online"?!? :P

    Are people seriously still asking when is Season 10 coming? Do you people know what Google is? Do you know how to read? Do you even take time to read the Articles posted on the site for the latest happenings? If you did, you would not need to ask such stupid questions.

    For those of you who feel like being stupid is the way to go in life, let me educate you.

    TODAY season 10 begins. Capiche?

    Didn't read all that stuff in here, but since upcoming Season 10, I have one real concern based on release notes.

    What I find most disturbing is:
    Earn Iconian Marks by completing any of the following PvE queues:

    - The Herald Sphere
    - Brotherhood of the Sword
    - Gateway to Gre’thor
    - Bug Hunt
    - The Battle of Korfez

    In addition to Iconian Marks, Mk XII set gear requires Iconian Probe Datacores.

    - Earn Iconian Probe Datacores through higher difficulty versions of any queued event which offers Iconian Marks.

    How did guys from Cryptic solved the drop of Ancient Power Cells for Delta Alliance reputation, if they obviously plan to REMOVE (or is there other solution applied already?) the only two reliable sources (The Battle of Korfez and Bug Hunt advanced / elite) for these items?! For example, in Bug Hunt (Elite) - after this patch, you'll get now only those Iconian Probe Datacores? Or you can get either APC or IPD, depending which marks you choose as reward?

    If they'll remove the only reliable sources of APCs, then I say this: you really dropped the ball this time and you can remove whole Delta Alliance faction, since getting gear from it would be quite impossible from now on.

    Howdy all,
    I have had a few fleet members ask me what level does the new missions start. I see that Uneasy Allies have been moved to level 60. Since we have the Delta Recruits etc people where hoping that they start on a low level. Anyway good luck to us all!

    Reading the patch notes - did I see we can trade in marks for the advanced items (BNPs, APCs, etc).

    That's nice if you're still working up to the advanced queues in capability.

    You will have the choice :
    Iconian Marks have been added as a reward option for the queues Bug Hunt and The Battle of Korfez.

    Source : http://sto-forum.perfectworld.com/showthread.php?t=1432101

    So if i understand correctly, at the end of the mission, you will choose APC + delta marks or Iconian probe datacores + iconian resistance marks.

    And for the APC, they are very easy to obtain since they add them as a daily reward for replaying Act III missions on Kobali Prime.

    So why is it coming on a Tuesday this time, and not a Thursday as usual? So you don't have to do more expensive hotfixing over the weekend?

    Maintenance has been extended by another hour, to make sure the servers are "working properly."

    Ha, that's a good one Cryptic... :rolleyes:

    They will likely extend it again. Four hours should be enough to implement a season, but coding is much harder than it looks.

    They usually do the major updates on Tuesdays, but the routine maintenance and minor fixes are done on Thursdays.

    Not sure why, but it is a long-established custom.

    Because usually 30%+ of the content is bugged or otherwise unplayable, so a Thursdays routine maintenance doesnt make such waves like an emergency one ;)

    I think it's for avoiding emergency maintenances as much as possible. If bugs (not critical bugs or exploits, at least) are spotted on tuesday or wednesday, they fix them in the "normal" maintenance on thursday.

    And if they were pushing major updates on thursdays, there's a good chance that they will have to mobilize part of their personnel on saturday and sunday, for emergency maintenances. Or take the risk to set the forums on fire if bugs / exploits were left unsolved from friday to the next monday.

    Oh, that has happened. I remember one case (not too long ago... DR or Winter Event maybe?) where there were three emergency maintenances (Thursday night, Friday morning, AND Monday morning).

    I remember that! I felt so annoyed, my friend and I wanted to play and we were blocked by the emergency maintenances. A tribble must have gotten stuck in the servers. :D
