Actually just bought the ROM Dyson Recon Sci Destroyer today (without having read this thread beforehand, unfortunately). I can confirm this is still an issue. Cannot switch cmdr boff abilities for either tac or sci seats.
Switching 'default' abilities doesn't seem to make a difference. Cannot switch from the cmdr ability the boff had when he joined my crew.

It's egregious that they would allow people to still buy this bugged ship so I feel for you. At least give people a warning. Bugged since January I might add. The message is loud and clear , they're not going fix this anytime soon.
Being this is the only ship I flew, probably pissed me off more than most other owners but this is really a new low, to allow people to buy it without at least a warning. I've moved on and happy to not spend another dime on this game if this is how they deal with bugs.

Agreed, very upsetting. Is there any known workaround for this? Switching maps/instances didn't work, nor did discharging/reclaiming the ship.
I don't need to fiddle with the boff powers much, but I'd rather have FBP/TBR3 over VM3 with my Superior Romulan Operative boff... Any help or direction would be appreciated.
One funny thing I just noticed - don't know if related:
I am just standing ("not-flying"?) in the Argala system after completing the patrol.
And just as my DSD thought I was not looking (but I did! ), it started periodically doing the animation for switching from Tac mode to Sci mode and right back.
Like an "idle"-animation - which is funny/neat, but makes no sense.
Sadly hard to document this without video cap software.
And this time I noticed that the bridge officer slots (the ones with the Boff portrait) seemed to "flicker" for a very short time.
As in: Boff layout was changing accordingly to the mode of the ship and back.
But it's really hard to make out since it lasts only a few milliseconds.
It happened out of combat both times. I don't know if it happens IN combat, too, since - you know - enough other flashy thingies .

Bumping due to still having this issue on the original character which I noticed the issue STILL hasn't been fixed, and now finding that it looks like all my characters have this issue when using the Dyson Ships. (And now the Bug report is missing from the in-game system, which seriously begs the question, why have the in-game bug reporting system, if a user can't even check on the status of a bug report?!)

OMG - yeah around New Romulus Veteran Destroyer (Whatever the Romulan version is called)was doing the same thing! I'm glad it wasn't just me...I thought I was smoking banana peels for a sec...

having the exact same problem and I wish I had known about it before spending one of my upgrade tokens to fix it. Kind of bogus that it's been reported since January and it hasn't even made the "known issue" list.
but then this is Cryptic and I'm not shocked that in four months they can't fix a single bug or at least post it on their known issue list to warn people away from buying bugged out ships.
I guess I should have known to never, ever... EVER... buy anything from Cryptic without looking at the Gameplay Bug Report shop... since that's the only way I'm going to ever know just how crappy a ship is.
Nicely done Cryptic... four months... well at least your track record of crappy programming and incompetance hasn't been broken.

What makes it worse is that when she's functional she's a damn fine ship.
I'm missing flying her, but it's just broken right now.
I wish they would at least check in so we know they're still working on it. This is the most glaring ship related bug I've ever seen in this game.
"Rise like Lions after slumber, In unvanquishable number, Shake your chains to earth like dew, Which in sleep had fallen on you-Ye are many they are few"
Tribble is being brought down for maintenance to update it to build ST.50.20150401a.9.
General:
Resolved an issue which was causing a crash when trying to use the new Foundry Diplomacy Map.
Gateway to Grethor:
Gateways now have despawn animation.
Resolved an issue where troop transports were not getting buffs in higher difficulties.
On Elite, the spawns that come out of the portals in phase 2 are now more dangerous.
Brotherhood of the Sword:
Adjusted respawn point before Forge/Targ Pit area so it's not as close to walls and thus less likely to try to spawn players inside of geometry
Resolved an issue where an extra waypoint would sometimes appear in Forge/Targ Pit area.
Sector Space Revamp:
Resolved an issue where some cluster space Duty Officers missions were missing.
Resolved additional issues with transwarps sending players to incorrect locations in Sector Space.
Resolved an issue where Beam in/Warp out animations wouldnt play when entering or leaving mission maps.
Resolved an issue where ship FX were scaling incorrectly in Sector Space.
Added additional cutscenes to the Herald Sphere queue.
Resolved an issue where the Command Bridge Officer ability on the Dyson Destroyer would not update when changed.
Resolved an issue which was causing the walls to disappear while leaving the jail into the coliseum in the episode Coliseum.
Added more icons and art to the Iconian Resistance Reputation.
Fly Her Apart: Resolved an issue where Rank II and III were looking for a placeholder attribute value, instead of inheriting the updated/final value that is used by Rank I, in order to calculate the Ambush bonus.
Though I'm wondering if we're gonna have to wait for Season 10
EDIT: On the other hand Season 10 could be as soon as next week....

Nice, not before time like!
Yeah I think Season 10 must be getting very close, they did say it would land during the Delta Recruit event, and I noticed they turned pre-patching on yesterday. Downloaded the 6GB season 10 patch when I logged off last night. I'm sure I saw somebody say the 21st was the scheduled release date, but I haven't seen anything official to back that up.
Join date is wrong, I've actually been around since STO Beta.
True alters don't have a "main". Account wide unlocks for all unique event rewards!!

Agreed.
It's not in the patch notes for tomorrow though sadly, but it looks like Season 10 hits next week. Someone said they saw it on Tribble, I haven't checked yet though.

So has anyone actually gone into tactical mode and have the cannons fire?? I played for a few hours last night in my dyson destroyer ship and everytime I put it into tactical mode, nothing happens!

She's working great for me. Sorry.

This bug still isn't fixed! My sci commander station is still stuck in viral matrix II and it won't change.
I'm flying the free dyson on a Rommie.
Tyr shall give me strength! For the glory of Tempus! I am the hands of Shar! Flames of Kossuth, protect me! Oghma, grant me knowledge! Lolth commands, and I obey!

Me too tier 5U and everything.
Post your character name and handle, it let's them check out your character themselves to find the problem.
Can you change your tactical station?
Have you done any map changes?
