i and a few people have tried to bring to the attention of cryptic via the forums of certain bugs that exist in game. understandable, dont agree but understandable. what is NOT understandable is that the devs and cryptic workers are aware of the issue mentioned and nothing being done to correct the situation.

    Well, there's no indication of anything being done. They're probably scrambling behind the scenes. Businesses are reluctant to flaunt their shortcomings, so even though their dirty laundry may be lying on the ground for all to see, they're going to do the equivalent of 'move along, nothing to see here'. That usually means public silence accompanied by feverish internal activity.

    Considering the blatantly exploitable nature of some of the issues brought to light recently, they should at least give a statement about it. Something like 'Yes, we know these problems exist. We're working on fixing them. Thanks for letting us know. From this point on anyone found to be exploiting these bugs will win a free permanent vacation from STO.' Or something to that effect.

    and you know they are doing nothing to fix it how exactly?

    because the bug still exists? could it be because the bug or bugs are incredibly hard to fix without pulling everything apart? could it be that even though they know its exsists that finding the route problem is hard to tack down?

    or is it just easier to assume they are not doing anything about it?

    We will not discuss exploits or exploitable bugs on the forums. Why? because it makes people curious and even the most vitreous of hearts may be tempted to "test". Which in turn can lead to them being banned for "just trying out what they read on the forums".
    I do not want people banned. Not in game, not on the forums.

    As such, we have a rule: Do not discuss cheats, hacks or exploits on these forums. It's very straight-forward.

    If you have a bug, report it via the options in game or, if you feel that is not enough, submit one Community Ticket. The link to the ticket page on the Atari Support pages is in my signature.

    Due to the breaking of the forums rules in the opening post however, I am closing this thread down.


    *Edit:
    It should be clear that sharing information on how to exploit with other users in the game can lead to losing access to the game.
