We will be bringing down Star Trek Online on Thursday, April 21st from 3:00 AM to 5:00 AM PDT (10:00 AM to 12:00 PM UTC) in order to perform maintenance and apply a new patch. We will update this thread once the maintenance has been completed.
Thank you,
The Star Trek Online Team
Edit: The server is now back up. Thanks for your patience!
"There is now a daily UGC mission that will reward players for playing 3 different star cluster missions.
Players will receive numerics and their choice of either:
Level appropriate marks/emblems
A grab bag which will grant you one level appropriate item
Grab Bag may contain item which range in rarity from uncommon to very rare; no batteries."
Can you clarify how it's a UGC mission yet accomplished by "playing 3 different star cluster missions".
The Tribble Maintenance and Release Notes - April 15, 2011 say :
"There is now a daily UGC mission that will reward players for playing 3 different UGC missions".
Someone said they were nerfing the UGC is some way explain?
I think what someone is referring to here is that ship explosions now only effect up to 5 targets, sad since its kinda unrealistic, but it will <I>probably<I> nerf (for now anyway) some of the "Box O' Death" style auto-grind missions.
I would like to thank Cryptic for the best server shut down warnings I've ever had ever since I started in the Closed Beta. Every 30, 20, 15, 10, 5, 4, 3, 2, 1 minutes they announced them. Almost Borg perfection.
It can't get any better then that. Keep it up boys and gals!
The server is still down and even the patch can't be pre-downloaded yet. Any news on when it will go back up? Maybe the usual 30 or more like 60 minutes extension?
