Scheduled Maintenance [May 14, 2015]

Greetings Captains!

We will be performing our weekly maintenance tomorrow as well as apply an updated patch at 7AM Pacific. Downtime is estimated is 2.5 hours, and patch notes can be found here: http://www.arcgames.com/en/games/star-trek-online/news/detail/9233603-star-trek-online%3A-release-notes%3A-may-14%2C-2015

When is that in your timezone? Find out here: http://www.timeanddate.com/worldclock/fixedtime.html?iso=20150514T07&p1=224&hc_location=ufi

We have changes in the patch notes specifically for alleviating the latency and login issues that Captains have been facing.
But it's been no bed of roses,
No pleasure cruise.
I consider it a challenge before the whole human race
And I ain't gonna lose.

I'm sincerely glad we have been able to get a patch that assists in those issues. Thanks for your patience and understanding!

    so i see us klingons still cannot complete the picanis patrol daily along with sortie bravo because we cannot enter one of the star systems which i can't think of it's name at the moment. why do we always get shafted in favor of the feds? SERIOUSLY, I WANT A DEVS RESPONSE.


    EDIT, by the way it's the dantari system that can't be entered. in picanis sortie bravo it's that system that can't be entered. please fix it and not in a year and a half like everything else klingon!

    Clicking on the “Finish Now” button in the R&D system while a project is running will now open a confirmation window to spend Dilithium instead of immediately spending the Dilithium.

    Yeah. Just the other day someone in my fleet was complaining about that because he didn't want to spend dil on finishing his project early, and it's happened to me a few times. This is something players requested when season 9.5 launched on July 21, 2014. Gee, it only took you guys 10 months to add a much needed and requested feature. :rolleyes:

    Any ETA on when sector mapping in Alpha Quad and Doff missions are going to line up with the sector borders?

    At the moment you can get up to 3 sets of assignment in Bajor sector depnding on which boarder your near. And just going to your bridge and back can alter the set and you have to run back and forth to regain that special chain mission that is rare enough already.

    Thanks for fixing the Deferi patrols and the breen ship, as well as defensive contact. (i already missed it :) )
    Hopefully the Ground part of the Deferi Daylies won't crash anymore.
    Added a Holographic FX option for Photonic Bridge Officers.
    That's really cool, thanks!

    Some Reman Captains and Bridge Officers are missing their arms and chest.

    ...I hate to be that guy throwing at pet bug at the devs while screaming "pay attention to MY agenda!"...but....

    ...has anyone actually been to Risa lately? Cryptic's obviously gearing up for it but...that's not going to end well when the basis for the event doesn't seem to work (huge framerate drop, occurs with other veg-heavy ground maps too and its a very recent (ie. season 10) and potentially game-ruining problem.)

    Thank you, thank you and thank you. I care not calculate how much Dil I wasted because of the lack of this. From now on my tears will no longer be tears of anger when using he crafting/upgrade system... well we can dream can we?!
    Resolved an issue with the Hazari Space Set where the 3 piece Cooldown Reduction was affecting all powers instead of only Shield Heals.

    This was very broken. I am glad its fixed and glad I didn't spend 600 lobi getting it. I can see some ppl will be upset though...
    Sector Space Civilian Freighters no longer have beam in animation.
    Does this mean the freighters around sirus are back, because yay?

    All in all great patch thanks for the hard work.

    So is Pi Canis sortie bravo gonna get fixed with this patch? Or the next one? I mean it's not in the list of 'known issues' but you're fixing everything else that went wrong with the big sector space map renewal.

    Deuterium surplus is back! Nice! Also, does this mean photonic boffs like the photonic sci (referral) boss are now editable?

    Good patch, lots of solid fixes. The pilot ship antics were amusing while they lasted.

    I was wondering this as well. Fixing the beam-in animation for Freighters does rather imply that they'd have to be there in order to validate the fix.

    Soooo you're fixing command ships, which is good mind you, but are you fixing the Presidio's nacelles? They have weird glowing effects...

    I'm a little surprised, by two things:
    1. Patch is applied on ascension day. Isn't that an official holiday in the US?
    2. Usually the Thursday patch notes can be seen prior on the tribble notes which in this case did not happen.
    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.

    Pretty sure no. Even after Googling it to find out what it was, I was like, "that's a thing?"

    No, separation of church and state, remember.

    We have that in the Netherlands, but it is still an official holiday.
    Besides separation of church and state goes to state affairs and holidays are usually determined by culture and history.

    With the predominant Christian history in the US i figured ascension day would be an official holiday.
