Well, I'm not active on that forum so thankfully it didn't effect me.
But it's still a pretty shitty way of handling business.

Are you sure that's a good link? I'm getting nothing but a grey window in my browser when I open that up :/

Worked for me as well.

It's nice to see that the pve que button is moving back onto the mini map and off the drop down menu.

The entire minimap area needs a total redesign imho. Too many small buttons all surrounding the map, and then a bunch of other functions tucked into a "dropdown", hidden from plain sight.

Instead of having 2 buttons (PVE Queue and PVP Queue), one solution might be to combine BOTH, and allow players to select either PVE or PVP queue in a popup? When Champions Online went F2P, it got a total UI overhaul along with it. STO has only had minor "touch ups" since going F2P. Minimap overhauling is just the tip of the ice berg.

The whole UI needs a re write from scratch.  It's using CPU time instead of GPU meaning STO sucks up more processor time (98% on both cores is the minimum I've seen playing sto) where as my heavily modded skyrim install will take up a max of 50%!

Ok this might be a stupid question. But I need to change the Email on my account as it got hacked and I can?t get into the game anymore. I have emailed support, and they have said
?I can change the account email on this address, provided you can tell me the product key on it, and the last 4 digits of your payment method?
Now the card number is no problem, but how do I find my product key without going into the account???
Thanks

hmm, did you download it off steam? (assuming your steam account isn't in the same scenario) If so, you should be able to pull up your game information somehow (I forget how though :idk: )

pugs are so stupid it's funny. In one ISN all four pugs started by going to the gate and blasting away.
Completely ignoring the cube in front of them and that the shield and health wasn't diminishing.

From what i've read, the Heavy Escort Carrier is grossly underpowered compared to similar level Escorts. The fighters on the other hand, make it seem overpowered. In any case, i'd hold off for a few months, and give them a chance to balance the ship properly.
