  • The game is not communicating with that node - it's sending data through it. If the node added a large latency to data sent through it you would have had the same high latency on the nodes behind it since traceroute shows the ackumulated latencies for each hop and this is not what your traceroute shows. You have a…
  • This is an example of a perfect traceroute with no indications of errors anywhere. Every node that is configured to respond to traceroute's probes does so on each of the three attempts. Latencies are low and stable, increasing slightly the further away the node is from you, as expected. What in this do you mean shows an…
  • With the risk of speaking for deaf ears the interpretation of these traceroutes are very similar to ones that were around a couple of years ago and similarly flawed. There is a difference sending a data packet TO a node on the path, like traceroute does, and forwarding a data packet THROUGH the same node like the game…
  • I take this opportunity to humbly remind people that traceroute doesn't use the same network protocol by default as the game does and as such you can't draw any conclusions of the game's behaviour based on traceroute data. You have no guarantee that routers on the path treat the different protocols equivalent. On the…
  • https://www.arcgames.com/en/games/PAB_sto/news/detail/9501383 4th bullet under Server Performance. There was a dev blog regarding the issue around this time but I couldn't find it.
  • 1. Access to old events and anniversaries, their account rewards and accolades. 2. Console LTS version on PC. 3. Recruitment buddy rewards - especially Warp to Friend.
  • The thread is huge so I apologize if this has been mentioned already. More fleet bank inventory has been requested for years. We already pay EC for the inventory we have there. Just let us buy more but charge much, much more for it. Thank you.
  • You should have an accolade in progress for each arc you need to complete. Check there what you need to finish still.
  • I encourage Cryptic to add even more maps to the RTFO pool since the ones not included today are very difficult to get to pop - especially on KDF side. I'm talking primarily of the Fleet mission like Starbase Incursion and Fleet Alert but also the 5+5 competitive missions. Adding to that they should also add elite level as…
  • The last toon I did this reputation on finished the ground gear accolade on May 9th so it was working then at least. But ofc, that's 2 patches ago...
  • If it's traceroute you're using, remember that it only shows replies from the ingress interface of a router. You can't see if the packet loss happens on the egress interface without doing a traceroute in the opposite direction at the same time. If it's a border gateway, the egress interface may have an IP from Akamai's…
  • Thank you for proving my point. Suggest != support.
  • That's called creativity ;) I have never suggested a tax. I have never claimed that a tax is related to recruitment events. Your aversion against a tax and the hostility you feel towards anyone you perceive as positive to a tax is quite obvious but please do us both a favour and direct that hostility elesewhere.
  • You have not missed any comment from Cryptic as far as I know. The prediction was simply based on empirical observations from how other MMOs deal with inflation. Experience from this game itself actually tells another story. The server wide goals, that benefited all players equally during the recruitment events, had a…
  • Since it's highly likely we'll end up with some tax system either way, we have nothing to lose having them try this and I will for sure not stop Cryptic from adding Phoenix items or T1-T4 ships to that store. In the end it's up to them how much or how little they will TRIBBLE off their customers.
  • I support the idea of an exchange tax provided the removed EC has a direct, visible and positive effect on players. How about some kind of point system? Every EC that is taxed out of the game through the exchange will be added to this pool of points which is then distributed evenly among all players. These points could…
  • I got that on a pure Fed toon on Saturday. Was your toon by any chance Romulan, Jem'Hadar, 23rd Century or Discovery Fed?
  • Just hover over the little adapted debuff icon. It will tell you exactly what it is they have adapted to.
  • Doffs also bind when used in crafting now.
  • I can confirm. I do a few doff missions on every char as part of my daily rotation. I now have multiple ultrarare and very rare boffs immediately bound as they start the doff mission. This is really, really bad since I shuffle those doffs to new toons now and then.
  • Ok, that's weird. This was the standard way to fix the Omega reputation gear accolades back in the days. But if you can't afford to lose it, it's probably best to keep it for now and hope CS can solve the situation for you.
  • If you got that shield before Agents of Yesterday, the accolade might have reset when they fixed the Mk 13 bug introduced with that release. What happens if you discard the shield and retrieve it immediately again from your replicator?
  • The rebel klingon in "The Undying" is actually Zorgun (I know because I killed him 2000+ times hunting that accolade). Klingon rebels has since been added to Starbase Incursion and supposedly also Colony Invasion, so it's now much, much easier to get these accolades.
  • I got this accolade just 4 days ago on an old Fed toon. However, this was the Mk 12 versions since the account in question does not have a Temporal Agent recruit. Did you retrieve the Mk 12 or Mk 13 gear pieces? I remember several of these accolades broke when they introduced that recruit bonus but I thought they fixed…
  • The previous test was made on the seconds space map - after the ground part. Just for completeness I also tested this on the first space map. 5 ships killed with the same Metreon Gas cloud but no accolade.19:05:11:19:31:31.3::Alpha Fluffy,P[1282027@230007 Alpha Fluffy@transpetaflops],,*,Metreon Gas,C[36019…
  • It has been broken since they remastered it for Age of Discovery.
  • FYI: After yesterday's patch, "Holographic Master" in mission "Facility 4028" is now completely broken. Console 2 and 3 can no longer be interacted with at all, even with a pure Fed.
  • "Sphere Annihilator" 10p for beating The Herald Sphere on elite difficulty. Credit goes to @Corsair715 for telling us about this one.
