Jees, no Borg Captain

[Archived Post]

I was hoping to use the Borg Captain with Headstart but no such luck although it did show all 4 slots.

To make a Borg Character, you must first make another character, log in to the game, open the C-Store, click on the "Unlocks" tab and claim the Liberated Borg Race.

What about our spay-shul uniforms? Or will those come in the e-mail on the 2nd?

[Archived Post]

Just checked. No it isn't unless I need to log out and back in.

This isn't working yet. You can unlock your borg character, but it does not show up in the character screen.

What the f!!!!! It´s been almost 3 hours into the so called head start and still they haven´t fixed the C-Store for us to get our Borg. I´m getting qite bor(g)ed here... FIX IT NOW CRYPTIC!!!!!!!! Should have let us test it in BETA if you can´t handle it at launch.

[Archived Post]

yep also getting ****ed off, 239US dollars for lifetime and playable borg at headstart, not "when we get around to fixing it"

Can understand beta etc but we are NOW PAYING FOR THE GAME,

On some level, I guess I understand the unhappiness about the Liberated Borg...

But come on guys - if you're really lifers, three hours isn't going to make a difference.

YES 3 hours of non playing does make a difference since we are all OBSESSED with this game

but not right now, other people are more important than the people who already forked over enough to pay for 16+ months of the game.

screw us, we can play later.

Nice copy and paste there. Also what you said is not working.

[Archived Post]

Of course its not working, in game they are announcing that its not working and have been, on the forums, a different message to get into game, to learn that its not working. Is this crisis management? You bet. Have we already paid for lifetime subscription and kinda tertiary to maintain as players? Sorta..

I really don´t wanna eat a chill pill right now. I wanna play my Borg. They should AT LEAST have this sh*t sorted for head start. I´ve looked forward for this for a long time, and don´t wanna miss out on what might be my first night in game. It just sux more then a vacuumcleaner not being able to play what you´ve paid for.

The idea of head start is exactly that you pay something a little extra to get into a live gaming environment before the general public. The sole reason for this is to level up before you have to deal with the 5 million others asking "where's Sulu...." My tolerence is very low at this point and Im considering the need for some compensation from Cryptic. I can not level my character which i paid for in advance becuase your system wont work. I see a case here does anyone else?

Couldn´t agree more...

I have to agree and I just plan to go through the tutorial. I want my preorder stuff before moving on. :cool:

Agreed.

Why wasn't this tested before launch?

[Archived Post]

I would almost feel bad if I didn't have to wait until Tuesday for my Joined Trill to become available. You have no sympathy from me unless it takes longer than Tuesday to get your Borg characters.

In the meantime level up another character and have fun until it's sorted out. That's what I'll be doing until Tuesday.

I have to agree. Many of us who lifetime subscribed did so with friends and fleet mates, with the intention of playing through much of the early game with them. It is not so desirable when you understand that everything you do will require doing over and this time not with your mates (some of whom are already playing their borg captains). We think this is unfair, and most of all, unnecessary. By requiring us to log in on a throwaway character to unlock yet a different character, then disabling that mechanic becuase..it was being used? Only they have the numbers of people who life subbed, they should probably know how many will try to make a borg. If they knew they could not handle that many people attempting to unlock the feature via the c-store..why did they make that the avenue to unlock it?

I've got the Borg BOff, so I figure I'll just save up some skill points for her, and it'll be alright. i could understand waiting for the Trill unlock, though. The Connie would be nice to have from the beginning, too, but if you only play for a few hours at a time, you'd probably still get use out of it.

Yes, but everyone knows that the Joined Trill is due tuesday. Then it´s those peoples choice to wait til then to play it. Even though I think that sux as well. Lifers paid for getting Borg from the first minute of launch. And while I sit here and wait. My fleetm8s are lvling up, and I have to do all this bag of poo by myself later on. Very fun indeed...

from my understanding....

the Borg skin is just a patch over your pre-existing character. After applying that re-skin, you get it's ability stats. I don't know why so many people are waiting... play play play, then apply once fixed.

This can´t be true. Then my alien should have 6 traits all in all... And that wouldn´t be fair.

No one payed any (notable) extra to get into the headstart. Get some perspective. This is not a tragedy, it is a minor inconvenience. Some mistakes were made, yes. But it's not the end of the world.. it's how the world works.

This is incorrect, liberated Borg are a species you select at character creation. As noted for joined trill, you CANNOT change a character's species after creation.

Everyone knows any species (except the Undine, and because the Borg think they suck, the Kazon) can be assimilated. PROOF OF A SPECIES CHANGE RIGHT THERE

god what kind of trekkie are you huh

Its not just a patch over the top.. Its more than just a reskinning. There are traits only available to the borg

Hence why I am waiting till 2011 when it will work.
