One year anniversary guys!

Go visit Q at Club 47! or right by the spawn on Kronos. Check out the new ESD interior and exterior! I'll post a link to picture for those who don't play

I'd be there if the bloody patching wouldn't be so fraking slow..

I did it last night, there was pre-patching. they didn't officially announce it though.

ok just checked it out friggin awsome, a closeup of a galaxy class docked, the space dock doors opening as you approach em, and overall epicness! :eek

Joshmaul · « **Reply #2344 on:** February 02, 2011, 05:12:03 PM »

I like that the spacedoors open, but too bad you can't see an actual docking animation or something, or actually enter the bay.

Oh, I saw an Excelsior in the docking bay from Ship Requisitions - I thought "oh hey, there's my ship!"

Yeah, I did it last night too. And then when I logged in today, I HAD TO DO IT AGAIN. Damned patches.

No surprise. But at least we got the real Earth Spacedock before all hell broke loose. *grin*

Speaking of which...

Its back up, and they transfered over 4 (or 5?) popular missions from Tribble foundry to Holodeck, just go to community authored and search for

The Longing

Unholy Alliance (might be Alliances)

Tipping Point

The Syndicate Extraction

you can also just search for part of the title.

Joshmaul · « **Reply #2348 on:** February 03, 2011, 01:06:39 AM »

I only saw "The Longing" available, but I'll go back and find the others. Kinda interesting, and a little bit heart-wrenching. I gave it 4/5 (because it involved the Borg, as if we didn't see enough of them, lol).

There's also at least one over on the Klingon side, I think.

Joshmaul · « **Reply #2349 on:** February 05, 2011, 03:00:04 PM »

So is anyone else annoyed that they're not able to do the new mission because the damn thing crashes (or sits at the loading screen for five minutes, THEN crashes)?

majormagna · « **Reply #2350 on:** February 05, 2011, 03:20:11 PM »

I have it on good authority that the devs are treating the issue as top priority; it doesn't really affect me, I'm still patching!

This happens every time a new feature episode is first released. Likely caused by not having enough computers hooked up to the shard, causing the server to reach maximum user capacity = game crashes/disconnects for everyone else.

Solution = Install additional computers

I don't remember it being QUITE this bad on the last two - oh, there were issues, but not to this degree. (That I remember, anyway).

Somebody on STO's forums joked that if Atari figured out that they had made their last computers some twenty years ago, they'd stop using them to power the STO servers.

Tuskin38 · « **Reply #2354 on:** February 06, 2011, 12:36:02 AM »

I don't remember any problems like this since the first month of the game.

Good GOD! I play on Tribble too often, the Live server is packed, I'm amazed there arent plans to add more 'zones' to certain areas.

Lionus · « **Reply #2357 on:** February 06, 2011, 09:45:19 AM »

Something is seriously wrong with STO.. helluva lot of lag everywhere, can't do missions without a crash..

everyone trying to play, did the subscriber base just jump or something?

Lionus · « **Reply #2359 on:** February 06, 2011, 11:36:56 AM »

damn if I'd know.. this is getting to a point where it's not tolerable anymore.
