    Please correct me if I am wrong, but didn't we already finish the event campaign? I finished on xbox just a few weeks ago. Is PC already multiple events into the next one?

    Wow, just wow. Have you guys given up on fixing the game? How are we supposed to participate in the event when we can’t log in?

    You could easily take a break any time. Events run for longer than are necessary to complete, so a 3-week event needs 2-weeks progress giving you a chance for a 1-week break. A red alert event runs for 1 or 2 weeks and gives 2 or 4 days break time, unless you opt to have a break for the whole of the Red Alert.

    Anyway, this was a disappointing set of patch notes but I expect there will be usual maintenance on Thursday which could include more things...?

    I would say they have become obsessed with fixing it. We're up to 2 days a week now it looks like.

    Except there is nothing about it in the patch notes. If they are fixed not listed in the notes, I would appreciate them. But with a lack of transparency, we can only speculate about the motives.

    Has anyone ever explained why after years of weekly downtime (Thursdays for the last several years), we now seem to have bi-weekly downtime most weeks on Tuesdays and Thursdays? What gives?​​
    Join date is wrong, I've actually been around since STO Beta.

    correct me if i am wrong...
    I wouldn't say you're wrong but since I've been playing, and that's 10 years(ish), Thursday has almost always been patch day.
    In the last 2 or 3 years, the current dev-team have elected to release content drops on a Tuesday.
    In the past year, we've seen this Tuesday-maintenance increase in frequency and we're getting it almost every week.

    This has resulted in smaller patch notes for each day which gives the impression that they're not fixing so many bugs. I can't imagine the team are slacking, though, and they're working to bring us the best STO they can. :smile:

    Hi,

    I cannot log-in since Nov 2nd patch; even with today's patch, STO crashes/freezes at character list. PLEASE fix that. By what I know, I'm not the only one with that problem.

    Greetings.
