    2 free ship slots on ONE character... well, I guess Cryptic doesn't want my money then. *skips this one*
    WELL IF THE JAPORI INCIDENT HAS TAUGHT ME ANYTHING, IT'S THAT MY EXISTENCE IS AN EXPLOIT. THANKS CRYPTIC.

    I don't see the ship slots in the Promotions tab. Anyone else?

    Might be separately claimable by each character though - yesterday's (spec points) was.

    It clearly says 1 character only and to choose wisely...

    it should be under services and not promotional...

    This will help with the upcoming Admiralty system and is FREE. If you are desperate to give Cryptic money then go buy ship slots for other characters.

    Really? Complaining about saving money?!

    Hey, I'm not seeing any free ship slots in services or promotional, and the blog seems to have reverted to not mention the ship slots anymore...

    What's going on?

    Edit: Nevermind, just showed up in Promotions

    I don't see it under promotions, the ones under Services are 500 Zen...

    Yep it's appeared for me too now. Just a bit of a delay. Nothing to see here folks.

    There was a minor delay in getting the giveaway applied to Holodeck, but it's now live!

    Our final giveaway is an additional 2 Free Ship slots for the character of your choice!

    should really be account wide...but oh well...take what you can get.

    Just one character? :'(

    I'm gonna have to decide which character gets special treatment...

    Yeah, as an altaholic this is pretty much useless to me. Add in that event ships are reclaimable and I can delete them to make room for other ships and this, while nice, would be better as an account wide unlock.

    Shoot, it would have been better if these and the spec points yesterday were switched. 2 spec points on a single alt, 2 ship slots on every alt.

    Oh well, still nice of them to give us anything.

    Argh.. misread. thought it was 2 slots for each character. The character i claimed it on was the one which needed it the least.

    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.

    Did you give your Pakled 2 ship slots?

    C-Store >> Promotions: Ship Slots (2) - Promotional

    If you don't see it, relog. That should refresh it

    I'm not a TRIBBLE so i refrained from using pakled. If it had been an options for the klingons i might have changed my mind. :open_mouth:

    Lol, that word is filtered? In case someone was wondering i was referring to someone who enjoys hurting him/herself.

    Ah very nice. I can actually use these.

    Oh and free ship slots means a free ship next right?

    Seeing as this is the final giveaway, no free ships.

    I enjoyed the spec points, so thanks for those. But limiting the ship slots to one character only instead of an account unlock was a bit lame.
    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!!

    Ships are about to become must-have items with the Admiralty system, so giving away the old ones isn't going to happen anymore.

    That's what I was hoping.

    Didn't notice it was for just one character. My Trill Scientist got it, I'm sure she can use it wisely. Though I might of given it to my Andorian Engeneer purely because she's further along the story line lol. The both have the same number of ships.


    Edit: And I just saw the announcement says Final day. Oh well perhaps next time. :)

    Now to put on my Section 31 uniform and infiltrate where the free ships come from.
  • orion0029orion0029 Member Posts: 1,122 Bug Hunter
    Ok, claimed my free ship slots, and those spec points for every character was a nice deal. Already had the Section 31 uniforms so I couldn't claim those, ah well. Still good for people who didn't already have it.

    So, I'd like to say: Thank you for the free goodies!
  • swamarianswamarian Member Posts: 1,506 Arc User
    I'm going to have to look to see how many slots all of my characters have. I think that most got a bump last year, in which case it goes to the delta. I'm not sure that I understand the "this only helps one of my characters, so it's useless" crowd.
    In any case, thanks for the free stuff.
  • potasssiumpotasssium Member Posts: 1,226 Arc User
    Wish the window was extended a bit longer, I'm missing the free spec points, get out of work at the same time as the promo ends.

    But that said, after a 2 week vacation from STO at the beach, only having a tablet, not going to get all butt hurt about digital goods. Happy for the people who got the boost. Now which toon to claim the ship slots on.
    Thanks for the Advanced Light Cruiser, Allied Escort Bundles, Jem-Hadar Light Battlecruiser, and Mek'leth

    I pointed this out on Twitter and I will do so here.

    1) The Disclaimer "1 per account" should be noticable on the website. There are people not noticing that, thinking it's claimable on all characters like yesterday's free 2 Specialization Points. And claim it on the first character and not the best character. So that little disclaimer should stand out more, like being bolded or the text being in red.

    2) In-game, they really should add in a confirmation box - "Are you sure?" (For 1-time account-wide claims).

    My thoughts as well. Usually the third day is better than the second... :neutral:

    Still, I suppose it's better than nothing.
