    Well, I had Spiders come out of a Junk Pile tonight. I didn't shoot them, someone else did. No AFK Penalty.

    Backpack for Phoenix Rocket launch mission is missing when using the Borg Exoskeletal Frame armour/costume.

    I'm hoping new costume for Borg in the new ground patrol mission will be available for Borg characters if/when Borg Collective faction is available to players :)

    Could the backpack bug be connected to players wearing the Borg Exoskeletal Frame armor/costume?

    No, because I've run it on my toon three times that has the Exo Frame and I've not gotten the afk pen yet...

    Well, there's several different bugs, and the exo bug might just be a harmless graphical issue. There's one that seems to pop up if you load too slow. Wait, that's not really a bug, it's the result of the mission starting without you. But it prevents you from getting credit.

    At any rate always check to see if you have the buff icon that identifies which team you are. If you don't have one you can't get credit.

    I have not gotten it at all, before or after the Patch or Patch to the Patch.

    Yea, I've only gotten it but One time; thought in fairness I was active the entire time. About the only time I stood still perhaps is when the rockets launch, but I often do that and never have a problem.

    But I also saw in Armada Chat today some were still getting the AFK penalties the ODD time; even after this patch, it's just not generally been my experience either...

    Liberated Borg is already a playable species. ;)

    It's getting real hard to defend First Contact Day with the continual fubar of its implementation. ;)

    Romulan Alien character, wearing a TNG Command Variant shirt, carrying a Tommygun.

    No backpack (appeared at the Golden workbench). I was able to collect the parts, eventually getting an Excellent Engine, a Great Hull, and an Excellent Stablizer. The UI button for adjusting the parts did not appear for me while at the workbench.

    The rocket exploded after reaching 26 (metres? feet?).

    I was able to get the Rep marks, though, at least.

    The Blog says account unlock but the in game event description says only the first character to claim the reward.

    I meant that, its only for dil-reward, not for toy and holo. Why the devs write two different things in different places? Its heavly not player friendly. :(
    Last years we could get toy and holo for every toons, if we wanted. This year its only for one toons. Its worse, than before.

    During the Seven of Nine mission my Remodulating weapon itself has to be remodulated using an outside source as switching weapon types still has the Borg reading "Adapted?" This conveniently happens when there is a mob of them.

    It's possible something is interrupting the remodulate action. Skills with an activate time have to finish or they usually don't work.

    That's simply inaccurate. The items listed as granted once only are clearly marked as the dill and the skill point, while the toy, holo and console are listed as account unlocked.

    I wish they'd make Bozeman, Montana a place you can beam down to all the time. We need more fun zones like Risa.

    Yes. It's a great map! Also I'm hoping that we get the backpacks eventually as costume item (with more colors) and maybe some cool era pistols.

    There are already some, but they're unpopular. Anyone like Andoria? Well, it's supposed to be a R&R zone. Same with Vulcan.
