As previously stated, your enjoyment of seasonal events very much depends on your own individual tastes. I really enjoyed the 2012-13 Winter Event and collected all of the winter costumes. I absolutely hated the last winter event and didn't participate because the costumes were only re-coloured versions of the previous…
I just ran the power board race on a standard board against a field of 7 players with various boards. I was heading to a fourth place finish when somebody erected a shield at the Finish Flag preventing the rest of us from finishing and getting our rewards. What absolute petty behavior! You use a superior board to get your…
I'm not sure it this bug is related or not. I acquired both the Dyson Heavy Armour and the Undine Body Armour after the Season 9 release. In both cases, the visuals are not showing and there is no switch to turn the visuals on or off. It just shows my alt's uniform. The traits associated with each armour are working, just…
Everytime there is a major patch, I get this issue. I use to use the DVD version to connect to the game but finally out of frustration with this problem I switch over to ARC. Things have worked fine for about three weeks until this latest patch. Now I get the "Launcher can't establish a connection to the patch server"…
My concern about Arc is bandwidth. How much does it use? I connect to the Internet via cable but only have a 60 GB allowance per month before I have to start paying extra. I play STO via the Launcher that came with the Amazon.com bought version 3 years ago. I use to have Steam (not for STO) but dropped it after downloads…
I too am having the same problem...again! Every time the game patches this now happens. It is sooo frustrating!!! Update - I just deleted every file dated 20th Feb. in my computer's Star Trek file. This caused the launcher to download a 7300+ mb download that took an hour here in Toronto with Rogers Cable to patch. And…
Less. I played a lot on the weekends particularly The Mirror Invasion Event. I would typically plan my gaming weekend around it so I would do other things like doffs or episodes in game before the event. Now with no bonus marks, there is no incentive really to play. I now play if I feel like it or I'm bored. I am doing the…
Supplemental After posting my previous message and doing nothing to modify entry into the game, I was able to get in in under 2 minutes. Maybe Cryptic heard my message after all. I hope that those of you still having trouble will have similar good fortune very soon.
I too am having the same issue. Tried disabling the anti-virus software - didn't work. Tried disabling on-demand patching - didn't work. Tried deleting the game cache - didn't work. Is anyone at Cryptic even listening to this thread? Why is their quality control so poor? This is so frustrating as we have only 15 days to…
Last year I thought the Winter Event was great fun. I played it everyday it was offered. I got 3 Chel Grett ships; all of the winter jackets for all 3 of my alts; all of the scarfs; the frosted boots; and the nanopulse melee weapons. This year I find that there is nothing new for me here to justify the increase in…
The daily patrol has become unplayable after last Thursday's update. I can only play against 3 waves of a 5 ship wave mission before the lag becomes so bad that I have to press Ctl+Alt+Del to exit. This coupled with the non-playable tailor bug makes this one of the worst updates Cryptic has released in awhile. I shudder to…
Today, my Federation Engineer reached lvl 50. When I tried to change his rank badge to Vice Admiral, the free uniform change would not save. I have tried several times to change it (a nexGen uniform in the first uniform slot) and it will not save. Nor will the tailor leave the free uniform change mode. I have tried to make…
