    On the fence on this one. I never really cared for it, but I went with no as STO doesn't need less content.
    Retired. I'm now in search for that perfect space anomaly.

    I must have either missed something or as usual people don't know how to read and blow things way out of proportion. I assume that from the following section in the Tribble Patch Notes people assume that the location 'Battle Group Omega' is going away.

    'Removed the hand off mission Battle Group Omega and replaced it with a hand off mission for the Borg Arc and a separate for the Undine Arc.'

    All that says is they are changing the dopey lead-in non-replayable Mission that most story Arcs have (not Breen). This says absolutely nothing about the 'Social' Zone itself. If it were being removed completely explain the following from those very same Patch Notes.

    'Report to Gamma Orionis: Resolved an issue where the waypoint was on the wrong side of the galaxy.'

    You really wouldn't need to address that if it were being removed.

    From twitter:

    TheSpartan@UniversalSpartan: Battle Group Omega is being removed. The Borg Science Bridge Officer Candidate will be obtainable elsewhere.

    Maybe @crypticspartan#0627 can verify wether it's permanently.​​

    Yes.

    @mattjohnsonva Just wanted to say your new sig actually makes the Vengeance look good. Well done.

    Yes, and remove the Borg Boff as well. Or restrict it to premades where players who don't help can be kicked.

    Seriously, in all the KAGA's I've played recently, at least one teammate is simply waiting at the IMR to claim his Boff, instead of helping to take out the nodes. I just finished one where literally three people were just running around, having no idea what to do, just knowing that there was a special reward to obtain here (that, so they seem to expect, someone else would just earn for them) and eventually just standing near the IMR when they realised that's where they needed to be.

    better idea tie it to the other Assimilated accolade, that way people who want it don't have to bother people who just want to do the stf. when I got it for my fed it took several tries just because people couldn't hold on a minute.


    if I stop posting it doesn't make you right it. just means I don't have enough rum to continue interacting with you.

    The change is on tribble. It could take a while until it hits holodeck.​​

    so how the sector space looks without BGO?

    Maybe to make a new starbase 157, not sure does that one got destroyed by iconians or no "mission blood of ancients"
    so as we have k-7, maybe to move new starbase 157 more to edges and make it social zone if it was been lost in conflict, if not then to make exisiting one, tho its still too far for fast resupply and access to mail/bank/exchange service.

    Thats just TRIBBLE up man. Like wtf? Probably that map bothered someone if it was removed or something, becouse I dont see the sense in this. And same like that Omega Force Elite accolades obtained from elite STFs, wich "will be obtainable elsewhere" (actual quote from a dev in a priority one podcast), we may never see that borg boff again... It was also a good map to access from space when the azura code was on cd.

    thats simplay a large disapointment, better to remove all those patrol missions in delta quadrant then BGO, i don't know does anyone playing all of them anyway, at least BGO has its role as resupply and point for bank/mail/exchange.

    Whats even reason for removal of BGO?
