I've seen multiple people (including me) on ATT Uverse/Frontier 32.208.0.0/12 reporting on this forum to being blocked from logging in, so the 24.x.x.x theory isn't entirely correct. I wonder if the person adding IP bans added entire netblocks by accident (instead of individual IPs or much smaller blocks). Off-topic,…
-
they all point to the same IP so there are multiple reverse dns entries being returned by cryptic's authoritative nameserver for the 208.95.184.0/22 netblock for 208.95.185.41, which is generally a not a best practice. (while having multple PTR records for an IP is not prohibited by the RFC it's also an edge case that can…

on a mac you would open Terminal.app and then type: traceroute -I patchserver.crypticstudios.com

in case you forgot, tribbles will eat Ketracel White and spawn gamma quadrant tribbles. So if you've ended up with a stack of Ketracel white from say, colony invasion with True Way or Dominion then you'll end up with a bunch of tribbles even without any other food items present.

If you are comparing to AP that could be a problem because if Surgical Strikes autocrits, then AP surgical strikes will always do more damage because it has an inherent +20 to critD. It's just like having AP do more damage on Beam Overload or [over] than other weapons (since BO always crits). Parse it with Phaser or…

Even Pre-DR with the number of "So and so does not believe in a no win scenario" messages scrolling by my screen every few minutes, it actually did seem NWS wasn't hard enough with so many people doing > 15K dps. If I'm seeing so many people get to wave 8 9 and 10 surely the metrics should be seeing the same thing: too…

I would say the tooltip can lie. You ought to verify this with combat log parses really.

In the last case #3, this is related to #2. The instance is empty because: another group already came in, blew up the 4 groups, and no unimatrix spawned, they then warped out due to #2 bug but because the map does not count as complete, you have warped into it and witnessed the aftermath.
-
Well, you are supposed to get the appropriate mission cooldown even if you fail it (since one of the whole point of making advanced stf harder is to make the optionals non-optional) - so one of the bugs is a display bug - the optional should not be listed as optional but as a required completion. Because really, your team…

This is a duplicate of http://sto-forum.perfectworld.com/showthread.php?t=1350331

The entire mission is going away "soon" (anniversary patch? Whenever the Romulan episode arc is getting redone) so not to worry. But yes the spawning in terrain bugs in Preemptive Strike are annoying at the moment (I love not being able to complete because NPCs are spawning in terrain and won't stop shooting at you and you…

For the Nvidia users: In one of the other crash threads I stated I was on 320.18 but I'm actually on 332.21 on GTX 770. The old computer was 320.18. I actually crash less than on the old computer on 320.18 but the old computer was running on a 250 GTS so it wasn't surprising. One of the things that I found made the 332.21…

I have been playing on 320.18 drivers since I built the system last year (because they also fix a bunch of issues with Planetside 2) and haven't had an issue on GTX770 (I do have 4gb of vram @ 1080p though). 320.18 also works great with BF4 and SWTOR as well (the only other games I really play at moment). I removed the…

Because Doff Assignments draw from common category pool regardless of actual ability. If you can only have 1 Armory Doff, then you can only have 1 Armory doff assigned, regardless of whether it is space or ground. You mentioned the case with DCE, and how you can have both space and ground DCE assigned at the same time, and…
-
Because you can have more than 1 DCE assigned. Try assigning more than a total of 3 DCE combined ground and space and you should get the same message about not being able to have more than 3 DCE assigned even if you 3 DCE in space and none in ground and try to assign a ground DCE. Doff assignments draw from common category…

Loading the saved loadout (loadout saved in space) doesn't always repopulate the stations, sometimes only some of the stations get the right boff in them after clicking the loadout. IF they could get rid of the stupid 60s timers for switching loadouts that would be nice (since you can't switch during red alert anyway), it…
-
Well the most likely explanation is that PWE is not providing sufficient server resources for events, when load is much higher than not-during-events. Based on Glassdoor comments, Cryptic does appear to be quite micromanaged by the mothership but it's the "big company" kind of management where everybody is allocated a…

The required Winter Wonderland grind is what is reducing queue counts overall. But as a shamelessplug you should be able to get decent PUGs going at nearly all times of day in the PublicEliteSTF/PublicAdvancedSTF channels
-
That sounds like an individual character problem. I'd a run of Borg Ground STF, Undine Infiltration, Nukara Transdimensional Tactics, and 2x Defend Rhilolol Station Elite right before the servers went down yesterday and got 1440 dil for each run. Are you sure you've been completing them properly?
-
But this has been true with every lockbox ship, and there have been few "emergency fixes" for their drop rates. On the PWE side, their metrics should give a pretty good idea of how much average zen a lockbox ship has cost. But we can look at a good proxy for ship rarity by looking at the prices for them on the exchange.…
-
No because people are getting locked out of the winter store (Not able to buy the warp core, or the kit modules) by not being able to get the completion accolades for Tides since yesterday.
-
Because you still need to do 10 runs of Tides to be able to buy the Breen Warp Core (which, as I understand it, allows you to double buff transphasic torpedos, by alllowing you to fly the 2 piece breen bonus and the 2 piece adapted maco bonus at the same time). The fact that the login servers died while trying to restart…

Can someone verify this with a combat log parser?
-
how do you know it's not your PC causing it? There are some new softparticle fountains in sector space/DR maps which if your GPU cannot handle, will cause lag. Try turning down your graphics or set the /renderscale 0.5 so you get 50% resolution. On a single GTX 770 I have no lag in DR.
-
Defera city uncompletable when the fully assimilated borgs do not spawn nor aggro properly. Somtimes an engineer can deploy a covershield to push the borg out of the alcove but this doesn't happen consistently. When is this going to be fixed? I don't mind having to wait 7 minutes on the "old bug", but it's a bit ridiculous…
-
DR Pack intel boffs are meant to be bound because they are reclaimable, so as to prevent duping. The commons you can buy from the shipyard should not be bound. I think that is the bug which frost is working on.
-
I don't think this is a bug. The winterwonderland map has some load/instance mechanics that work like the fleet starbase map.
-
I can hear the coil/fan whine from my GPU through my headphones. Only STO seems to cause it, SWTOR or BF4 doesn't
-
Are you sure it's not a tooltip display bug? Since the actual damage pershot is unchanged? I would have thought that if it was really that high, they would have emergency patched it by now...
-
There are some strange/nonlinear effects that are observed when the target has stacked debuffs so that when the resist drops below zero, crit damage is through the roof (100+k damage out of a torpedo, for example). Not sure if that is WAI but the devs may want to take a look at what happens when targets carry negative…
