Bios and DS9 under siege VA?

So... massive patch today and all that, prettier ESD and even more C-Store stuff to shell out real cash on if only paying monthly fees simply isn't enough for you... woohoo.

Is this update gonna fix biographies? I like just reading random people's bios to pass the time, but they no longer show up and it would be really nice to have them back. Also - will the DS9 fleet action ("DS9 under siege!") ever be available to VAs? How hard can it be to fix that?

    I have ran the mission on Vice Admiral......unless you are referring to a Vice Admiral specific version.

    massive patches are good things. Means they are fixing lots of things all at once.

    Prettier ESD is needed...badly.

    C-store - don't like it, don't buy anything in it. Pointless whine.

    Biographies - what problem are you referring to? I have noticed that in particularly crowded instances sometimes the bio text doesn't pop up right, but that happens maybe one out of five bios. Never happens in space, either. If you get it all the time, might need to throw in a bug report.

    That DS9 fleet action was way hosed. I wouldn't be surprised if they just nuke it and pretend it never existed.

    C-Store - I'm not criticizing the store itself, but the fact that they're focusing on creating more and more fluff that costs money, instead of fixing stuff or adding actual content. Been gone for nearly a year and there are what, 30 new missions?

    Biopgraphies - referring to the fact that they no longer show for me ANYWHERE, from ANYONE. Been going on for weeks now, I highlight people and either their info doesn't load up at all or I get everything but their biography, even when they actually have one. Had other people complaining about the same thing, so it's not just me. People can't read mine, either.

    DS9 - well, it may or may not be a crappy mission, but that's beside the point. You can get that thing as soon as you hit captain and you can keep getting it until you hit VA. And then, for whatever reason, the distress call no longer pops up and you can't get in. I'm assuming that's because VA rank is relatively new and DS9 under siege simply isn't "flagged" for VA ranks, but whatever the cause may be, I can't get in there and lots of other VAs have the exact same problem. Could get in when I was RA just fine.

    I thought the DS9 fleet action had been removed for everyone because of the rediculous mob issues they were having?

    You might want to put in a help ticket for the bio thing. I still get bios. Weird that you don't.

    Nope, asked around at DS9 yesterday and pretty much anyone from Captain to RA can get it, but VAs don't seem to get it. I wouldn't mind if the thing got canned altogether, but right now it only seems to affect VAs and I feel left out. :P

    EDIT: Thanks for the hint about the bios. Maybe it's on my end after all.

    EDIT2: Well, from what people are telling me ingame, Bios don't seem to work for anyone. Same for DS9 under Siege at VA rank. Gotta love how some people state it works perfectly fine and others state the exact opposite! Argh!

    Well, enjoy your stupid spacedock and cash shop items. I'll celebrate when we get some actual content and bugfixes...

    I never got the DS9 trophy and I would like a chance to get one, but I'm a VA now and can't get the mission, which sucks.
