Speculation on why the Borg Red Alert was Pulled

ltminnsltminns Member Posts: 12,569 Arc User
Originally scheduled on PC this Weekend, a weekend after it was part of a Red Alert Event. It was removed before it went live. Why do you think that occurred?

They neglected to add Gamma Marks to the Choice Box.

It would negatively impact the Defense of Starbase One TFO.

AoD code changes messed it up.

Set a bad precedent in making Red Alerts look like a regular every Weekend Event.

    I don't see why they did not put in the random thing, but .. don't care.

    Probably because it went up in error. No need to claim a conspiracy.

    I think there is just too much going on right now. Random Queues, new Discovery characters, mission journal messing up. They need feedback on that stuff from PC. They decided not to dilute the players focus with another event.

    I just think they want us to play some of the other content.

    Isn't this an upgrade weekend coming up now? How many people have BEGGED, pleaded, offered up their first born for an upgrade weekend over the last month? I'm guessing they see that posted everywhere and decided to give us an upgrade weekend instead.
    When you see "TRIBBLE" in my posts, it's because I manually typed "TRIBBLE" and censored myself.

    Could be trying to reduce ways to level starship traits.

    CBS told them to pull it as it's not Discovery content. (Being sarcastic duh... Someone had to say it...)

    Shouldn't have been changed into this TRIBBLE event anyway. Idea is dumb as a bag of hammers.

    They don't want to fork out extra dilithium over the weekend.
