  • I understand the current ignore list does not work that way, thus the suggestion.
  • While I can imagine there are people out there who are awful and would willingly sabotage a mission if given the opportunity, I do think that the biggest problem is under-geared and inexperienced players looking for a free carry. Maybe one option could be making it so that captains don't get placed into groups that have…
  • I've had this issue a few times and restarting the process would sometime "unstick" it, but it's not working tonight. A quick internet search shows this same issue going back to at least 2012. How can you be this bad at something for so long?
  • BMR, will we be getting guidance on what we need to do when they implement the new fix? The previous fix never gave us any guidance on what we needed to do, leaving most people doing the endless loop of patches with no idea if it was doing anything.
  • This. Even when they implemented a fix, they provided no guidance on what we needed to do. Most people just did the long process of downloading multiple patches, with no idea if this was the fix. Did we need to delete certain files then patch? Did we need to do a fresh install? Did we need to verify the download? Players…
  • It really isn't clear right now about the source of that "joke". While they are saying that it was someone else, I haven't seen that confirmed by any other source. It could be 100% accurate or it could be damage control. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ Edit: To clarify, I'm not saying it's true, just the source hasn't been confirmed*
  • I appreciate the update. Any chance of expanding on what the fix last night was? Does it include downloading multiple patches? It would be nice to have an idea what we need to be doing and what is a waste of time.
  • I was able to log in fine last night after about 8 patches, but it was really late my time, so I went to bed shortly afterwards. This morning it looks like I'm back to having the same problem with a patch starting as soon as I tried to log on. I then got the dreaded "unable to start game client" message... I just started…
  • After that last patch attempt, the really big one, I was able to log in. Quick edit before I go to bed. I just hopped on the game for a minute. The maps are pretty deserted, so not very many people on. Hopefully the issue is resolved and it will back to normal tomorrow.
  • I think there is more than one patch. Every time I try to log on, it patches a different size patch. The first was about 4000MB, the next ones were about half that. I 'm on my 5th or 6th patch right now and it appears to be big, at 8% I'm already over 1000MB.
  • I just tried logging in a few times and it's downloading a large patch with each attempt. Part way through the first two patch downloads I was getting a "file not found" error (around the 25% mark). It continues to patch to 100% then gives the same "Unable to start game client: client quit unexpectedly" message. After my…
  • I've had mixed feelings about roll-backs. This is something that might work, but would need to happen very quickly, otherwise you have people who lose all their recently attained items and accomplishments, getting even worse the longer you wait. Also, keep in mind that this is an older game. I would be very surprised if…
  • In the end, it's all about micro-transactions, which is their cash cow. This feature is the reason I don't have many alts, which reduces the replay value and the longevity of the game. They should look at the incentive for the players that would be willing to make purchases that are account wide vs. the player base that…
  • Add me to the list, same issue. Downloaded patch, now game won't start.
  • I'm having the opposite problem. Whenever I add a Watcher to my bridge to replace a Romulan with SRO, my +crit chance drops by 1 and my +crit severity drops by 5. I've tried adding just 1 watcher, adding multiple watchers and even trying different combinations of assigned stations, rotating the watchers around and it still…
  • The console - It's good for 23 Drain, which is useless to most of us, and 7.5 Aux Power, which is always useful on a Science Vessel. The proc is 2.5% and thus meaningless in my opinion. You didn't mention the Cryonic Weapon Enhancement on the console, is that ability any good?
  • I haven't posted on the forums in a very, very long time, but this is an issue that needs to be addressed! This takes away from the games playability, especially in group play! I have recently returned to the game, and I can't recall the FX spam being this bad. This has even stopped a couple friends (who I'm trying to talk…
  • Added to help people navigate to Superfetch: Control Panel\All Control Panel Items\Administrative Tools, select Services, scroll down to Superfetch. Trying it now, will edit with results afterwards.
  • I've watched my temps while playing before, nothing out of the ordinary and no spikes. Just for the sake of testing a theory, I had WoW and SWTOR up on my other monitors while playing STO. STO crashed after about 30 minutes which is typical, while SWTOR and WoW were still up with no issues. I'm stumped on this one.
  • I'm having the same problem. I constantly crash to desktop on both ground and space missions. Total play time varies from 10-30 min on average. I've tried numerous fixes dealing with video drivers, reverting to DX9, using -d3d9 in command line, safe mode, verifying files (numerous times), a complete re-install, and…
