OK Devs: more is NOT working now than IS, after the new launch, at least for me.

THIS time, I joined- or thought I had joined - the Fleet Defense action during the ONE HOUR (the reason for the emphasis will become clear momentarily) it was a special event, but instead of going there, I was sent to "Infected" Ground!! OK, whatever - "can't just leave without penalty, so let's make the best of it," was my thought.

So, I pull out my weapon, lock-and-load... AND..."Patching 17 files...Disconnected from server"...

I logged back in immediately and - TA-DA: I'm banned from PvE for ONE HOUR - you know, the full amount of time that is given to participate in any of the special events!! Of course, not that bonus marks are necessary or desirable for doing Starbase improvements or anything...

So, Devs, there is a) a BIG probem with the queuing system since it threw me into the wrong STF (and yes, before any commentary comes through, the "Engage" box came up for The Fleet Defense - the one I THOUGHT I was getting into) and, b) I get booted due to no fault of my own, and I get banned from joining said STF for early termination?

Come on guys - enough is enough: make sure things are working before launching them in future; please?!

It's quite likely you mis-clicked. I do it from time to time. It's annoying when it happens but c'est la vie.

As for the DC leading to a 1 hour sin-bin, it's just not on. It's been like that since long before I started playing back in feb '11 and it really does need looking at.
I have to admit, I sold out

No, it;s a known issue. Happens to me quite often and have heard other people complain about it. No matter what you choose for that first stf of the day, it drops you into infected ground.

It's highlighted. Even if you pick a different one, it stays highlighted. You have to back out of it real quick else yoiu go into it.

Might be time to disable the STF's except when queued from DS9

So what would that do to fix this issue? Please explain because I don't see any reason why your random suggestion would help with this issue.

Indeed. All that would do is make the DS9 loading/framerate lag even worse, because then EVERYONE would have to loiter in DS9 (or DS9 space) in order to do STFs.

If anything, the 'headquarter' zones (DS9, ESD) need to be distributed into more zones in order to reduce traffic, since the devs are obviously more interested in having people play Fed than KDF. I hate going into DS9 because 2/3 of the time I'll have to sit through a several-minute loading screen and have to fight a jerky screen that makes me run into walls and whatnot. . .just so I can use my STF salvage/EDCs/tech.
