I'm getting this issue except the costume isn't unlocking at all regardless of character, faction, or species. I can reclaim the armor item itself fine on other characters but it doesn't grant the costume. The project was originally completed on a klingon-aligned reman, if it matters.
Totally. It's an important lesson to learn there; accessories really matter for a costume. There was a Lara Croft that was a runner-up in the MY IMMERSION category that had a pretty good costume, but won over the two or three other Crofts partly because she kept her dual pistols out. There was a lot of problem handing the…
Handing out nearly eight billion credits worth of stuff (and probably over it, I haven't checked the fleet bank in a few days) is a rather expensive bribe. Also, Starfleet Dental isn't part of Shutup Wesley; we're friends, but they have to compete the same as everyone else, and will have fun doing so. If you have a problem…
And yeah, this is definitely going to be the biggest problem. Fortunately the only events it would potentially cause problems with are the costume contest and the races, but those are some of the fun ones. Hopefully the lower instance cap won't make things too bad. And it's all the more reason to join the channels early so…
Nope. Well, unless it's a trick to get everyone in silly costumes and having fun. And don't forget, we'll try to have video up and we'll definitely have a bunch of screenshots for the folks who can't make it!
I had a lot of fun helping to run this last year, and it'll be even better this year. I don't mind the negativity, I just hope people have fun attending!
Yeah, I've been hit with random disconnects too. Weirdly it's never been during queues or while fighting/grinding in an instance, though there's sporadic spurts of lag or rubber banding there. It's most often idling around ESD checking auctions, hovering in space tagging omega nodes while doing crafting or doff jobs, or…
Only tactical officers from the embassy grant the (fairly massive) Romulan Operative crit and critical damage bonus trait. The rest give the Subterfuge cloak trait, which is obviously pretty useless in most cases on a Fed character.
This does not work on live, at all. It is impossible to complete if ESD space came up as an objective in the daily quest. My only assumption is that internal testing is using the original ESD space zone or something instead of the current/live ESD space zone, since by all appearances it seems like the instance is simply…
The real trick is finding a zone that is both... 1) Capable of hosting a lot of people. 2) Cross-faction. Starbases for example can reach the player cap but are faction-specific. While most of the cross-faction zones are capped a fair bit lower. Even DS9 only has room for around 75 per instance, and as noted earlier we…
Thanks everyone for attending. Sorry if anyone didn't come away with something, by the end nobody was asking for the consolation prizes. So I can only assume everyone came away happy. :D
While there's themes in the costume contest, be sure to bring your best (worst) costumes for the rest of the event too! Show your creative spirit and have some fun!
Seeing a similar issue here. I've only crashed twice in the winter event zone so far, but it seems consitent in the Crystalline Entity queue so far. Trouble is there doesn't seem to be anything that really sets it off; the CE queue crash can happen at any point during the queue, and the two winter zone crashes were while…
It is true though. At this point in the game's life, without any more specific desire (such as a heavy interest in PVP science), a tactical Romulan captain is literally the best choice for any ship, let alone the JHAS. It's true that the JHAS is pretty redundant next to the best warbirds and the assorted cloak bonuses…
I'm pretty sure you can still trade them to other players, but since they come unpacked you have to do this manually. You can try and arrange a swap with someone who isn't happy with theirs, or try and sell it for credits to buy someone else's... either option might take a while though.
It's mostly the flashy trenchcoat and separate-lensed glasses. It's not really an exact match, just kind of evocative of the look if you pick the right colors. Also thanks to everyone I've managed to invite by the starbase the past two nights! Dozens upon dozens upon dozens of you... sorry if I've missed anyone in the…
The Ferengi missile launcher fires every 2 seconds (yeah, really) and it does work with High Yield and Spread. Sadly it doesn't really take good advantage of either due to the low damage per shot. It is however a 180-degree arc rather than a 90-degree one, so you can broadside with it in a cruiser if you're so inclined. I…
I know I mentioned something similar earlier in the thread, but after running the Breach a few more times this really isn't true. There's enough time to get out if you take the right path, and if you're in a zippy ship you'll probably have 15-20s to spare. The trick is that it's not immediately obvious which path is the…
It's really surprisingly hard to actually find the quests in here. I ran into several while flying around, but some markers on the map don't seem to give you one, other quests lead to objectives that point to open air, and others that had no place I could turn them in afterwards. If there's daily-style quests in there I…
Just did this about an hour ago... honestly wasn't sure if it was normal or elite, I queued for both and clicked "accept" without paying attention! Whoops. That said... 1) The map in general is just ****ing amazing and I wasn't even sure you could do something like that in STO. :eek: It's by far the most visually…
Yeah, ran into a few problems when I went to poke around at it. The first was that I only had the single BOFF with me, like some other people here. The second was that there was... nothing going on in the zone at all. No enemies, no events or anything; everything was captured except the "kill V.Rex" stuff, except there…
Oh yeah, one other thing I forgot: the Dreadnought looked like it was using some sort of super weapon deal, kind of like the thalaron pulse of a scimitar or whatever it is that tholian tarantulas do. The graphic for it actually faced the wrong way/was otherwise bugged and not displaying properly.…
Okay! Got into an Elite... a few things to note. The first was that the Voth Dreadnought died fairly quickly, but the group didn't get any credit for it. Second, the map icon for it seemed... misplaced, though being huge it was still pretty easy to find. There were supposed to be explanation briefings I guess, but none…
