    I'm beginning to get this nagging feeling in the back of my head, like something I should be concered about. THis is the third time in a month we've had a Tuesday update in addition to a Thursday update.

    What gives?

    this week there's a very good reason for a tuesday update - it's thanksgiving week​​
    Like special weapons from other Star Trek games? Wondering if they can be replicated in STO even a little bit? Check this out: https://forum.arcgames.com/startrekonline/discussion/1262277/a-mostly-comprehensive-guide-to-star-trek-videogame-special-weapons-and-their-sto-equivalents

    #LegalizeAwoo

    A normie goes "Oh, what's this?"
    An otaku goes "UwU, what's this?"
    A furry goes "OwO, what's this?"
    A werewolf goes "Awoo, what's this?"


    "It's nothing personal, I just don't feel like I've gotten to know a person until I've sniffed their crotch."
    "We said 'no' to Mr. Curiosity. We're not home. Curiosity is not welcome, it is not to be invited in. Curiosity...is bad. It gets you in trouble, it gets you killed, and more importantly...it makes you poor!"
    Passion and Serenity are one.
    I gain power by understanding both.
    In the chaos of their battle, I bring order.
    I am a shadow, darkness born from light.
    The Force is united within me.

    Why is the issue of people being crashed from the game when we change maps not being addressed? You have topic upon topic of people complaining about this and it isn't even on the KNOWN issues to be addressed!! Missed the event because game would crash every time I tried loading the Crystalline map!

    Got the UTC time wrong yet again on the launcher ... it is not 14.00 - 16.30 in fact it is 15.00 - 17.30 ... Why do you keep doing it wrong?

    Why is the Error 2: File not found bug that is causing many players to not even be able to launch the game not listed?
  • skk1701jskk1701j Member Posts: 243 Arc User
    "Echoes of Light” is now a level 60 episode found in the Future Proof tab of the mission journal.

    Shouldn't it be the beginning of a new arc?

    Why does anyone post questions here asking why there is extra maintenance, longer maintenance or anything about maintenance that is asked as a question? You never get an answer.
  • vorwodavorwoda Member Posts: 698 Arc User
    And the missing TOS Gorn outfit is still no longer listed as an issue, despite not being resolved, and formerly listed as an issue. Please fix it (or at least tell us why it is no longer listed as an issue, even though it has not been fixed).

    Wait a minute. My imported Canadian calendar shows me Thanksgiving was on the 10th of October! You're trying to trick us! :p

    So, seems people with a Fleet Nebula get shafted. It ain't me, but still, this isn't exactly great for them.

    +1 to this..Why future proof?? Unless there is some crazy link with us going back in time to K13 with our AoY toons...Which then in any case this should have been for only the AoY toon and not the normal toons..

    People don't get that UTC doesn't change when daylight savings cuts in and out. UTC is always the same. Pacific Standard Time (fall/winter) is UTC-8; Pacific Daylight Time (spring/summer) is UTC-7.

    UTC is not British time, though it is Greenwich Mean Time, which also never changes. In the winter we (the UK) are on GMT. In the summer, we're on British Summer Time (BST,) which is GMT+1. This is almost certainly where the confusion comes in.

    If the world's governments would just do away with the time change altogether, so many problems would go away.

    It's no longer listed, because like so many bugs before it, they've tried to sweep it under the rug and hope everyone forgets about it.

    "The Nebula class model has been updated to be more accurate to canon.
    Additionally, we have added the sensor pod and stanchion from the Nebula class U.S.S. Phoenix as a free part to all versions of the Nebula."

    THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU!!! YOU'RE THE BEST!!!!!!!!!!!!

    As far as I remember, GMT and UTC are actually somewhat different, but unless you need to be accurate to a second you can ignore the difference.

    Anyway, this and the fact that different countries switch to and from DST on different dates makes this whole confusion understandable... If it wasn't supposedly fixed for good in 2015... My guess is the launcher announcements were handed to a new guy who cheerfully saw "London GMT+0" in some world time app and didn't dig deeper...

    I had a similar issue, until I changed the flag for "reduced file streaming". That seemed to make the problem go away entirely.

    Elaborate please. Or is this the same song and dance as every other T5 that got a T6 version?

    And now I'm confused about timezones myself... So, did it end half an hour early, or 20 minutes late?
  • salvation4salvation4 Member Posts: 1,167 Arc User
    Lol..even I'm confused now..

    That should have been fixed with this patch.
