Is Temporal Ambassador mission offline?

I've been ignoring Geordi LaForge's entreaties to do the Temporal Ambassador mission for quite a while, but I decided to use it to get another ship and admiralty card for my Jem'hadar since he's lacking in ships. But now Geordi is just popping up saying he's got nothing for me. If he's got nothing for me, why's he popping up. And the mission is locked in the mission journal for all my characters, even though Geordi was popping up for all of them every couple of days or so.
Anyone know what's going on?

Might be a problem on Xbox only.
If they were doing it for a revamp (like in preparation for a multi-faction version of AoY or something) it would be great but I seriously doubt they are doing that.
I have the same problem atm
The yesterday's war arc is greyed out for me and I completed all other arcs (no skipping). Also LaForge only pops up for saying "nothing to do". It seems like a bug on xbox, I'm waiting for a fix since I can't finish multible achievements without this mission/arc.
Yes, it is indeed bugged, not only on XBox but also on PS4.
It seems like the „Temporal Ambassador“ mission isn‘t acessable anymore.
The bug appears since the „To Hell with Honor“-event update, about one month ago.
With Level 65 captains, who don‘t have played „Temporal Ambassador“, I can‘t start the mission from the missions tab, because the start button is greyed out. Geordie‘s automated hail says: „I don‘t have anything for you“ and start button is greyed out, too.
The mission replay with level 65 captains, who already had completed the mission, opens the window and the text says something like „command prompt“, while the start button is greyed out as well.
Please fix this problem with one of the next updates, since the completition of „Temporal Ambassador“ is a requirement to unlock at least 3 trophies/achievements, which became unobtainable at the moment.
I use the game in the german version. If this is not a problem, because my translations of the mission texts are not exactly corresponding, i will try to help out with more informations, if needed.
I have 100% completed every story arc, prior Yesterday War with my Discovery captain, who never has played Temporal Ambassador before.
Right after the ending sequence at Starfleet Academy, the talk with Sela, Nog, Paris etc. and getting back ship controls in the Delta quadrant, Geordi hails again with the message above and the Temporal Ambassador mission stays locked.
Seems like, until the problem is patched, there is no workaround.
With regard to fleshing out your Admiralty roster of of ships, a tip I picked up early on is to regularly search for 'special requisition' on the Exchange. The results will offer lots of different T5 lock box ships for modest EC costs from a few hundred thousand to a few million. It's worth picking up the (non-upgradable) Mirror ships and any other cheap ones to obtain the associated Admiralty cards, even if you never actually fly the ships. And keep checking from time to time to obtain any you don't have cheaply, as the selection available is always changing. You can shorten the search term to 'special req' to reduce the typing requirements a little too, for the same results. I keep a selection of these boxes in storage to get any new character off to a good start.

You don't even get the 30k each Dil for the Rep level 5 that even though they start you with 2 already at level 5 completed. While you might start already at level 60 it takes almost as long as it would have had you started from level 1, before you can actually do anything, as you have to get dil, ec, ships, and doffs, Not to mention the ship and weapons you do get aren't anywhere near enough to survive even a Normal level TFO. I don't think jem'hadar get any real advantage.
The real killer is the single shared bank slot, makes for trying to transfer anything between characters a pain is the proverbial, if mail was working (and it still isn't as I just tried) the I could mail stuff, but since mail is broken it is transfer 1 item at a time via the single slot.
Because the "Featured Episode" section appears at the top of the story arcs, they could be blocking Temporal Ambassador from becoming available.
> I hate to ask, but those that are having trouble playing it - have you played/skipped the newest entries in the "Featured Episodes" story arc at the top of your mission journal? They could be what's responsible for blocking your progress.
Inferiority, i‘m sorry and i‘m aware of the fact, you want to help here. But it is not helpful, to ask the same question again and again, with the same results. As I wrote on the 4th of july, I completed ALL missions prior yesterday war with a new toon, there is nothing more. The Temporal Ambassador mission stays locked.
And it is not helpful, if a PC player joins the topic. On PC it works as intended. It is just a console problem on XBox and PS4 and appeared with the patch and begin of the To Hell With Honor-event.
Additionally I made the offering to help out with more informations or screenshots, if asked for or needed. Since I play STO on both consoles, it wouldn’t be a big problem for me.
It didn't unlock.
Tomorrow, I will take an hour or so to play through the entire ground mission line on Kobali Prime, in the hope that it could perhaps be what's blocking the progression. However, I do not believe it will result in any difference. I will then proceed with Spectres, Lost Dominion and Cold War arcs to see if anything there unlocks it. (I made a Reman, so Nimbus III is already completed!)
I intend to return here to post news if anything I do results in Temporal Ambassador becoming playable.
Currently Temporal Ambassador won't play, my guess it may not be fully implemented until the next big patch, probably House Divided.
So in answer to your question No you cannot play it, not yet anyway not matter how many previous/other missions you try and run.
First of all, they are Cryptic Studios, Arc is the launcher, and the publisher is Perfect World Entertainment. Yes, they are trying to fix it. Before this, the mission was not accessible. Now it is a map transfer failed bug when one gets to the door of the Enterprise C. Check next month's patch notes to see if it is fixed then.
