Please can you nudge the Dev's to make sure they have installed AFK penalties for this event!!!
I want to actually have a decent run, and not have to be concerned about someone not even bothering to play who still gets a reward!!!
private ques is your answer... i personally am hoping the KM blows up in 30 secs from the start so I can start my next toon. Once done then I'd try "for reals"
"The meaning of victory is not to merely defeat your enemy but to destroy him, to completely eradicate him from living memory, to leave no remnant of his endeavours, to crush utterly his achievement and remove from all record his every trace of existence. From that defeat no enemy can ever recover. That is the meaning of victory."
-Lord Commander Solar Macharius
In the description of the gear it states "Account Bound on Pickup"... so, while it's not true account unlock, it can still be shifted between toons on account
Will future events award non-phaser versions of the weapons?
Nope. They don't care enough about non-fed factions or ship design concepts.
So, I guess all those alien ships are just "Federation" ships?
The ship designers have given T6 Klingon and Romulan Vesta equivalents, Miranda equivalents, the first T6 Ferasan vessel, a T6 dhelan which essentially marks the close of all launch Legacy of Romulus ships now at T6 and there's likely more still coming.
That Ferasan T6 isn't just the first tier 6 for that race, it's the first official ship for that race at all in STO and you could easily be the first look into the asthetics of that race since TAS (the feresans come from TAS but the name was changed to avoid possible legal issues as said episode was orginally a cross-over with Larry Niven's known space franchice)
So just as a heads up, it seems like right now you can't reclaim the items on other characters when you get it on one, we're fixing that.
And yes, the beams are account bound while the canons are character bound, which is also being fixed. (And won't matter once we fix the reclaimable thing anyway. )
it was a flipbook of lag for me. thanks for the true choice of marks though

"With the first link, the chain is forged. The first speech censured, the first thought forbidden, the first freedom denied, chains us all irrevocably."

Good, and it's looks like i can get only 1 token (forgot the actual name) per account daily...

Really!?! A freakin' Doomday Machine! What did this crew do to aggro every alien race in the galaxy!
Oh let's see...
1) Destroyed three Birds of Prey and killed their crew to a man, even though they told you they were here to take out an Undine and were right, and didn't apologize to them afterwards.
2) Stole a KDF ship and tried to keep it.
3) Killed countless Klingon crews in battle.
4) Did a whole lot of "shoot first, ask questions later" situations.
5) Declared martial law on a planet and aggravated the Orion Syndicate.
And that's just in the first story arc.
If you go back and look at everything the player character does, yes it's for the greater good, but they are a real douchenozzle about it.
Space Barbie Extraordinaire. Got a question about Space Barbie? Just ask.
Things I want in STO:
1) More character customization options such as more clothing options, letting the toon complexion affect the entire body, not just the head. Also a true RGB color picker applied to all costume and appearance options, which would allow for true appearance customization and homogenous colors instead of "this same exact color looks vastly different on two different pieces."
2) Bridge customization, not bridge packs. Let us pick a general layout and adjust the color palette, console appearance, and chair types, as well as more ready room layout options.
3) Customizable ground weapons, i.e. The aesthetic look of phaser dual pistols but they shoot antiproton bolts. For obvious reasons this would only apply to standard ground weapons.
4) For the love of Q please revamp Plasma Ground Weapons. They look like demented Supersoakers right now.
5) True Vanity Impulse and Deflector effects similar to Vanity Shields.
6) A greater payout for hitting T6 Reputations. Currently it takes more time and resources to get from T5 to T6 than it does to get from nothing to T5. Make that grind really pay out at the end.
7) Mirrorverse Refugee event similar to AoY/Delta/Gamma, complete with new Mirrorverse recruits for all factions.
8) Independent Faction, because yo ho yo ho a pirate's life for me!
I just did this and a wave of Fed ships blew up the Kobayashi Maru and i didn't get any marks or the Weekend Event Voucher. So if we lose on the Fed wave we get nothing?
I've rec'd the Weekend Event Voucher on one of my eight toons. Bugged......
Apparently not. According to what I have heard, the voucher is once per day, per account, so getting it on one toon but not the others would support that.

If you still have faith in the competence, intelligence and skill of your average STO player, please queue up for this weekend event and purge whatever is left.
I'll be lining up with Zeus, as he's my powerhouse toon.
Wanna see how long he lasts in an untimed event.

Tried it once. First three or four waves were pretty easy, then died pretty much instantly on the one where you start blasting around the map at about Warp 700 for no apparent reason. Seriously, what was that supposed to be, anyway?
...I think I'll be playing this one exactly two more times.
Glad they didn't restrict the enemies to Klingon ships. The Borg Cubes and Doomsday Machine made me laugh.
One HUGE difference from NWS: The Kobayashi Maru moves. If you're going to drop the shield recharge sphere from the 8472 rep, for example, try to catch the little bugger right after it changes location.
Some waves are just unforgivable, like the Tzenkethi ones. Even worse if the Maru happens to wander near their spawn points, you'll see its hull completely melt in less than 20 seconds.

That said, I bet it becomes an Admialty Card soon.

It shouldn't be an issue, but please let me know if there's a ton of AFKing going on.
Wave 17 and then we lost

My character Tsin'xing
you'd think these cargo ships would be armed by this point.
Ah, approach #205. It's rare for people to do this on the first attempt.
I actually LOL when I saw that, then tried to remembered the last time I equipped an Hargh'peng Torpedo. * GULP *

You need to get past at least round 2 to get the rewards.
