Has there been any official word on when there will be a way to run the Omega mission other than "make a FED character"? I'm having a heck of a time finding out whether Cryptic even knows there is a problem. Thanks.
Has there been any word from the devs on this? So far, the post here is the only mention I've seen.
Probably only just about. First report here was just about you'd expect them to finish and they are probably only really jsut starting to get back in. The joys of Cryptic being on the Pacific Coast.
Then again there has been an issue affecting KDF characters on getting credit in one of the Defera location zones (the one that is top left on the map) for the Red Omega that has been known about for years so will need to see.

Omega mission? Could you provide some more information please?
I can't take it anymore! Could everyone just chill out for two seconds before something CRAZY happens again?!

Omega mission? Could you provide some more information please?
The Omega Molecule Stabilization mission for the anniversary event. On the KDF side there are some "sets" of locations that are broken and the mission only lists 2 instead of the normal 3. If you pick up this version of the mission, it can not be completed.
I have only seen this on the KDF side so far. Both last night and this morning.
Also, about an hour and a half ago (11am Eastern U.S.), the set of locations changed and then the mission was giving 3 as it normally would.
Unless something is fixed, I would guess that if the broken set of locations rolls around again, we will have the same problem where anyone picking it up at that time will be unable to complete it.
Adding: I checked the 11pm and 3am sets, both "bad" with only 2 locations.
They just fixed it. Getting 3 sites now. KDF side.
I would not count on it being fixed just yet. The list of sites changed over, so the current list is ok, but it might have a bad one again next change.

As expected, the list just changed about 18 minutes ago and the current one has only 2 sites. We can hope the next one (in 4 hours I believe) will have 3 again so people on KDF can complete it.

Yep it looks like its not fixed and it must be due to klings not being able to go to Wolf 359 at the moment.

i doubt that's it, it'd still show on the list, it just would be incompletable. i seem to remember this happening in the past as well. my guess is one of the planets they have to do it on is no longer available, so the quest tries to show a "collect particles on ERROR_invalid_map" and it gets auto removed, or alternatively there's a typo in the code for the third entry so when it tries to add it, it sees it's broken and auto-removes it rather than crashing the game.
Now clowns, that's another story. They scare the crap out of me.
We fight them too. Entire armies spilling out of Volkswagens.
We do our best to fight them off, but they keep sending them in.
I too, am only getting 2 locations for my KDF character
And it is still broken with the 7am (Eastern U.S.) set of locations. I'll check again after the maintenance, but the patch notes don't even mention this as a known issue.
For a problem with an active event that is 100% reproducible by every player on the KDF side, Cryptic is being very silent on this.

I was hoping to find a list of the locations that were always given together in the past, but all I can find is a list of the color available at each location. I figured if it was always the same place missing, that would pinpoint the problem.
I don't remember Wolf 359 being something KDF had on the list (or access to?) in the past, so I did not think that would be it. New Romulus, on the other hand, I have not seen at all on the KDF side yet.
Sounds like bug to me, and this is not the correct forum. @darkbladejk
It is a bug, it is in a post over there, and this was not started as a report of said bug, it was started to get any indication that Cryptic knows about it. Given the list of issues on today's patch notes, I would think the answer is 'no', so I would very much appreciate if this could stay here until that answer changes.

Sorry, you cannot dictate where certain posts/threads are to reside. The forum rules govern that. Bugs reports/discussion should go to the appropriate Bug Reports subforum. Please, follow forum rules and make your posts there. Cryptic is aware of this bug, though. And hey! If you really do want to make sure they know about a bug, the Bug Reports subforum is actually where they look for those, not General Discussion. Thank you for participating on the forum!

Thank you for so diligently following the rules.
If you could do me a favor, please pass along to the devs that we, as players, have no way to know whether *they* know about a bug if they don't say anything. And that a GREAT place for the communication to happen, if they or one of the mods can't respond directly, might be the "Known Issues" section of the patch notes.

Still broken this morning and no mention of it in the patch notes unless it is somehow tied to the Wolf 359 thing (which would be strange, but such are the times in which we live).
My Klingon character started acting up yesterday with this problem. Tried the yellow omega anyway but it didn't recognize it. Dropped the mission reacquired it but still only two locations. Today after the reset still the same. My federation character gets three locations.

Until something is done about it, all you can do is wait for the next location cycle (I think maybe it is every 4 hours?) and hope you get 3. Otherwise, another wait.

Can also use a non KDF Character. Which I know defeats the point of using them and you have to use two anyway to complete the two progress.
ive done a in-game bug report on this matter [Request Received]: 1018665: KDF Omega Stabilization daily, but had no answer so far 90% of the time they do answer me with in a day or two
i suggest that everyone does the same then hopefully this wont be a other bug that they ignore

Is there a workaround or is it simply not possible to do the Daily event progress doing Omega when it happens.
Today got the bug with only 2 locations listed
New Romulus (Space)
Deep Space Nine (Space)
