When they take care of us ?

grazyc2 · August 2016

I know there new feature on XBOX and PS4 needs their attention but the PC version is getting more bugs every day.
Soon this PC Game is unplayable as normal because there attention is on the consoles, as a PC Gamer I feel neglected.
Here is the list :

1. VO and Animation films are without sound, or the wrong sound from another animation.
2. Ships or BO get stuck a lot of times
3. Game is lagging FPS most times, like the kuvah magh it's horrible to play.
4. Space things like for example Tactical Team, or Science stuff ain't working.
5. Free gear you get completing a mission isn't working like the specs.
6. Exchange have issues in the search system

I can go on describing another 100 bugs with the help from players but the game is getting worse by the minute, so please cryptic put a team back here on the PC version and repair those darn bugs because whatever your doing the game is not pretty to watch at the moment.

Sounds like you need to reinstall, or get another computer (subsidiarily, a new hard disk), as I'm not experiencing any of the issues you mention.

seaofsorrows · August 2016

Animation fixes are coming in the next patch (they're in the latest tribble patch.)

The game plays fine for most people, your lag issue is not global.

Tac team and science abilities work fine.

You're making a big assumption that people are being pulled off the PC side to work on console version. Since the Console stuff is getting ported from the PC version it's actually coming to us first.

Honestly they have such a small team now I would agree with the OP that the PC team currently most likely is smaller as their focus is on the console port and lets face it that could be a bigger market for them with the 60mil plus console users out there.

But to put people's fears at ease just look at Neverwinter they during the time they spent doing the console port the PC side slowed down to a halt and then after the release of the console port things went back to a normal pace granted they do have a bigger team tho....

But yeah back on topic the animation fixes are coming I have none of the other issue's so maybe take a look at your PC.

seaofsorrows · August 2016

With the exception of last weeks silly version of a 'patch,' I haven't noticed any slow down at all on the PC side.. not yet anyway.

I get what you're saying, I just prefer to wait until they actually do something before I call them out for it.

There has not been a slow done but a sharp drop in quality and a rise stupid mistakes which we can only put down to being under staffed look at last weeks patch it brought back a bunch of bugs in the new agents of yesterday missions that they had fixed....

grazyc2 · August 2016

Quite right, but also bugs like hearing J'm pok at the promotion to commander FED side, well I played GTA V without any issues could be my internet connection but then I should have trouble STWOR as well, and that is running fine. I shall look into it but with a large fleet fighting or when I zoom in on my ship the ship flickers like a fast flash light. Did the same thing on STWOR and nothing wrong. bit strange.... I think my computer is fine just spend begin this year a dope of money for a new Main board and 8 GB Memory with 4 TB Hard disk and high power fans to cool the stuff so I don't think my computer is at fault here.Could be my Internet connection but I tested it online and the read outs where fine.

grazyc2 · August 2016

I just state in quote that when the consoles came in the maintance of STO on the PC dropped lot off bugs came back they fixed it but what kelador said latest patch brought back a lot off old issues, most where reported but no answer from the Q&A team.... For those that say there aren't any problems try to run a new char maybe you notice it to. because maybe high end chars don't have as many problems as the low end chars.

It's those Iconian's. Or those Na'kuhl's down the road.

Or those Cryptic kids, the ones that hang around with that Nellix guy, you know, one who's coffee make a good weed killer.

Coffe has to be nuclear empowered.
My coffee raises the dead 4 graveyards away...

Hell I think I can power a Cube with my coffee... *grins*

echatty · August 2016

The only places where I have lag issues is the Ocampa freighter patrol and that mission where you're trying to save the scientists from the Gorn. That planetside mission lags as well.

Other than that, I don't suffer lag issues.

You're entitled to your opinion, but that's all it is -- an opinion. Feelings not facts.

My opinion is the game is NOT falling apart. I am leveling a TOS captain now so I have played through old and new content at levels 1-60+.

jonsills · August 2016

Haven't had any lag issues saving the scientists from the Gorn, or pretty much anywhere else - except on the surface of Regulus IV, in the outdoor section, during "The Kuvah'magh". It's annoying mostly because it makes it much more difficult to defuse those bombs than necessary. (Thank heavens the next toon I'm taking there is an Engineer - they can bypass the process.)

Oh, I did get Quinn thinking he was J'mpok when Kevin Timeline hit Commander, but not with my second 23rd-century toon, Stanek. I guess someone made him take his meds that day...

I still LOL thinking about that, it happened to me too. The devs should embrace it next April and swap all of the KDF - Fed voices for a day

... and it's a point against the OP's opinion, since they fixed it the first week.

i find it odd that TOS mission 5 (the tholian one) i had to re-start 3 times b/c the 1 time i had invisible na'kul (sp?) shootong me the 2nd time the interacts in the tholian queen chamber wern't glowing,so i couldn't shut off the self-destruct, the 3rd time there was no interact for the tholian queen, so i wasn't able to talk to it......i was quite annoyed with having to start that mission over 3 times before i was able to finish it.

I think that was mentioned in the week 1 patch notes too, but I've only created 1 TOS captain so I don't know whether it was fixed.

kjfett · August 2016

OP, reinstall the game. Most players aren't have the issues you are seeing and they could all just as easily be client side issues.

My point being...you have to do some basic troubleshooting on your client before assuming it's a server or code issue.

not sure why you think the team is smaller. If you listen to the latest priority one podcast gecko mentions the opposite, they actually pulled people off of neverwinter to help with sto so the team is bigger. Also they have extra qa people so they are working on multi-year old bugs that were lower priority. And there are of bugs that are foxing, not just console stuff.

Plus hector is doing concept art for something they can't announce yet, but it is for the pc.

nikephorus · August 2016

I notice a lot of bugs in this game, but the majority of them don't generally affect game play. The bugs that do are generally dealt with fairly quickly...admittedly the little bugs that don't have a major impact are left to linger forever and can become annoying.

gavinruneblade · August 2016

Take a look at the recent tribble patch notes. They're fixing lots of annoying but not gamebreaking things. Floater trails on risa, the dsd stats in step between the stars, the bank on kobali prime etc.

That's a particular quirk of Cryptic's systems that goes back throughout the company's history. It's got nothing to do with team size or people being shuffled around. It's just something that happens quite often when they update things a certain way. Give em time. They'll fix it.

Maybe that list explains why there's a 18 GB patch for Tribble right now

Just kidding, I realised I reinstalled the entire game and didn't load Tribble yet... ugh.

They did not because I played today and at commander promotion he still speaks as J'm pok

grazyc2 · August 2016

Oh I forgot ah bug it is a bit funny. Those that shot DEAD don't fall down they stand or fly in the air or what ever. There dead jim, dead as in doing a certain action and stay that way. Or they first fall down a couple of times before they are really dead. O and for those who say there aren't any bugs, pay attention to the game and stop staring at those mini skirts. LOLZ...
Some have those lags some don't maybe the cable provider or maybe it's just to many people playing at certain times hell I don't know. And yes I give them time but we are at a stand still for 2 weeks now and there rolling in more bugs by the day !!

When they take care of us ?
