Please, for the love of god?
All this month there has been extra long and extended maintenance on extra days, yet not only have none of many bugs that have been reported for over a year been fixed, none of the newer game breaking bugs that surfaced since Victory is Life and it's subsequent patch went live almost a month ago. Please can we get some of these fixed:
• New PVE menu is broken, the filters do not stay set, and some PVEs, especially events (like the current Tzenkethi red alert) are not showing up properly.
• Even after a PVE is ready and I select ready, it keeps counting down and then drops me from the PVE queue.
• When 1 PVE decides it is ready it drops me from all other queues - which is really frustrating when it then does not pop because of too many declines.
• Can no longer snooze a PVE if I started a timed task - now doing so drops me from all PVE queues all together.
• Often after the second or third time a PVE has failed to pop and placed me back in queue the next time it is "ready" it is not listed in my commands menu to accept even though I see the countdown - and the only thing to do is watch it pass and get dropped from queue.
• All of the items I used the very special Key Ring upgrade token on to take to "Max Quality and Mark" are now 1 level below max - these should have been bumped to the new maximum because of the very nature of the item used to upgrade them. This has insured I have not picked up the Keyrings currently on sale as I feal cheated.
• the new DS9 layout is terrible. it's cramped. It's Crowded. Cameras constantly moving into and through walls. Hard to see character and interact sometimes. It glitches and stutters constantly.
• Are we going to have to look at the new splash screen every single time we log in or switch characters? It's ridiculously annoying. There are already 4 splash screens just to get to the character select screen - and now there is one more once we load into the game!
• Bombarded by annoying pop up messages for missions already in my incoming hails list. This is absolutely unnecessary and frustrating. There is no good reason for this to have been implemented. It is especially absurd when I am trying to do a critical task or timed event and fail or miss out because one of these pop ups interrupts me. It has caused me to go off track and get disqualified in the Biathlon and Making Wave events on Risa several times by popping up a mission hail I already dismissed right at a corner. It feels like the developers are intentionally trying to annoy and drive away players at this point.
• Jump button on Xbox 1 no longer working reliably. As it is, it was always annoying being the same as the action menu button - but now half the time I press it it does nothing unless I hold it to open the menu - this makes certain accolades now impossible.
• Unable to access Duty Officer or Account bank on Jem Hadar character when using Cross-Faction ships unlocked by other characters (Krenim Time Ship, Breen Rezreth, Bajoran Interceptor)
• T5 and T6 Escorts as well as Special Shuttle obtained with lifetime membership not redeemable with Jem Hadar, even after choosing factions. These were part of the Lifetime membership and stated very clearly to be unlocked for ALL characters on the account - so this needs fixed!
• Constantly thrown out of game when changing maps with a message about the Connection to the server being unreachable. This has been going on since the last update/maintenance. It's especially fun on those annoying nested maps in the game where you have to go from the shipyard to system space the sector space when you get booted going from the shipyard to sector...load back into the game and get booted again trying to warp to sector space.
• Constant random disconnects because the account server has become unreachable.
• Team system broken.
Plus issues over a year old still Unfixed:
• Ships with Battle Cloak that engage it sometimes become stuck cloaked.
• Ships with a Tactical Mode often become trapped in that mode once engaged until after an encounter or PVE ends - with no way to switch back.
• On the following mission, the mission wipes out all of a characters traits requiring them to be manually reset. I do not know what is more annoying - that it happens at all, or that I already reported this 2 years ago and it STILL hasn't been fixed:
Keep your Enemies Close, Sphere of Influence, A Step Between Stars (there are others the names of which I can not remember).

When did you get a xbox coldnips
The PvE queue system is still horrendously broken especially with the Timeout loops and the inability to take your own team in with you, as the system over-writes your own team with it's random choice.
OP, the items you upgraded with the Keyrings do not get marked by the system that they have been upgraded by Keyrings. You have not been cheated as the Upgrade did it's job at the time of purchase. It is unfortunate they did not future-proof this, but they have done nothing wrong. How do you know what's been upgraded with the Ultimate Upgrade, and how can you ensure you're reporting the correct items and not trying to just get free upgrades for nothing??
Also OP, DS9 is too scale. This was constantly requested, and if you watch the shows, you will see actually how cramped it was! They are not going to change this again. You can also disable mission pop-ups yourself in-game in the Options tab 'Disable Mission Auto-Hail'.
And finally OP, Jem'Hadar DO NOT HAVE ACCESS to Lifetime Ships yet! They are getting their own soon. It is NOT a bug.
and, thank you for your input leemwatson but as you are not arc or cryptic tech support I will repeat my 4 points of view you disagree with for their sake:
•All of the items I used the very special Key Ring upgrade token on to take to "Max Quality and Mark" are now 1 level below max - these should have been bumped to the new maximum because of the very nature of the item used to upgrade them. This has insured I have not picked up the Keyrings currently on sale as I feal cheated. THERE ARE WAYS TO TRACK WHAT KEY RINGS WERE USED ON AND WHO PURCHASED THEM SO I STAND BY THIS ADAMANTLY.
• Lifetime ships are stated as unlocked for all characters on the account - so this is either a bug or an intentional defrauding of the one of the characters of an item paid for - either way it needs resolved.
• DS9 is horribly cramped, and I have watched the show and it is not nearly as bad in the show - despite that this is a game and when I cannot see my toon or the items to interact with because the camera flies off into a wall or is over the next level up then this is bad design of gaming environment.
• I disabled auto-hail long ago - it is still bombarding me with popups and does not affect the greeting message that now pops up every time I beam down somewhere.
Nothing from the OP has been fixed.
You are actually the one very much incorrect, as it very well can be construed as fraud. This is strengthened by the fact that Keyrings were being sold days before they announcement of the upgrade in maximum tier just a week before it hit the console - inadequate warning.
Also, as stated, these were premium items, when real money is involved take it seriously. If you do not and you disagree kindly but out - the report forum exists for reports not counter bashing and arguments.
As to being able to track it - they most certainly have to track who buys what for financial and business reasons so there is a record of who bout how many key rings, and as discussed in other threads the very nature of a complex MMORPG requires a significant database tracking details.
Where was this said? Provide a reference please.
It is no where in the advertising of the Victory is Life pack for the console or the news posts. Romulans DO get LTS ships specific to them - and it is promised in the Lifetime Membership and still is so that trumps your response. It IS a bug!
[quote="coldnapalm;c-13447618"DS9 look good to me. So that one isn't even a bug...just a subjective complaint. [/quote]
Just because you may not be experiencing the issues ON PC (hey your replying to a console post sub-forum, check yourself) does not mean it is not bugged. It glitches and stutters and has since it's new rollout, the camera is flying off into the walls and ceiling constantly, It is bugged an needs fixed!
This is why I hate software forums for bug reports - trolls!
