Oh, got it. I didn’t realize Console had started the 14th so soon.
That must mean that Kael just used the wrong tags (since it’s in the PC news area), rather than a duplicate like I originally thought.

In any case, have fun, Console players! It’s a fun set of episodes so far.

I saw this post too, but it looks like a duplicate of one made in January. Is it not?

Indeed. I hope he’s doing OK too, sounds like he’s going through some stuff.

As far as my posts, I’ll still try to do things as timely as possible and perhaps start working on an account on startrek.website. ¯_(ツ)_/¯

It is. I’ve read about that and wondered if it was happening. There are a few discussions popping up about it too, so hopefully it will be addressed.
(I’m also considering just migrating or creating an account on startrek.website. We’ll see.) Thanks for letting me know.

Sorry for the delay in posting my summary; kbin was down. Again.

Right? Maybe it was 3.9GB for the Cube bug and .1 for the rest. :-P

Would anyone prefer that I summarize the Patch Notes for brevity the way I do other posts? Or are the original Patch Notes brief enough?

For example, a rephrasing of today’s:

• Fixed issue preventing certain Warbirds from equipping Borg Kingdom Interceptor Probes.
• Corrected the Fleet Power Network console to only reduce Weapon Firing Cycles cooldowns, not all cooldowns.
• Addressed disrupter ground visuals for various weapons and drones.
• Fixed display issue with Kurleth Phaser Pistol.
• Updated 14th Anniversary bundle description for item claims in the Zen Store.

I couldn’t get past the 504 error for Arc and PlaySTO sites. Well done!

Kbin was down for a couple days, so I wasn’t able to post my summaries. Hopefully a day late isn’t too late!
LLAP

There are some definite TNG throw-backs in this bundle. I think it’ll end up being a “pass” for me though, at least for now. I am looking forward to the next C-store bundle 35% sale though, given the correction on the tommy-gun.

This bundle is a pass for me as well. I knew it would be since I first saw what ships “might” be in it, as they just aren’t my style of play.
Still, not all bundles can be amazing and mainstays, so I still have hope for future bundles.

Just noticed that I duplicated your post about the 14th Anniversay Bundle. Sorry about that.
I’m a mod over at the kbin STO community and thought I’d start helping out by cross-posting some of my summaries to the startrek.website community as well.

Not sure how well this comment or the syncing will work, but just wanted to say hi and LLAP. I’ll continue to try these cross-postings from our community to yours, unless you say otherwise.

You beat me to it! I got my bullet-point summary all written up too before coming here to post. Haha
See:

February 15th at 8am PT to March 7th at 12pm PT

• Complete “Pahvo Dissension” (Ground) or “Peril Over Pahvo” (Space) TFOs to earn Daily Progress.

• Accumulate 14 Days’ Daily Progress for the Pahvo Space Set:

  • Omni-Directional Beam Array
  • Energy Torpedo Launcher
  • Universal Console.

• Additional Dilithium for continued participation.

• Zen Buyout available.

• Event contributes to an Event Campaign

Great advice! This is how I finished off my Klingon Recruit years ago.
Also, this Partisans mission technique is a great way to farm Arthropods for endeavors too.

Agreed. It sits pretty low on my wishlist and I’m certainly not buying more Zen just for it, but maybe I’ll snag it if I have some leftover stipend Zen during the next 35% sale.

I’m tempted to get this bundle; I have wanted it for a while, but the Tommy Gun (originally) being only bound to character was an issue for me.
HOWEVER, while I might be tempted by this bundle, I will note that the 25% discount is less than the 35% bundle discount this bundle often receives with sales.

According to my records, this (and other C-store bundles) was last on 35% discount in January of this year and will likely see another 35% discount in May.
So, I guess I’ll be holding on to my Zen for now.

I mean it’s fine if you enjoy the game, but it really isn’t a good game at all. It’s fun in that it is a way to immerse yourself in Trek content.

This sums it up really well. I also find it to be a fun place to meet up with geographically distant friends who also like Trek. Hanging out in Quark’s while chatting over voicechat is pretty great.

You’re not wrong. Then again, there are some amazing games out in the over-a-decade since this game was really worked on. And those games can definitely scratch the same itch as STO, but with better graphics and less gamble-mechanics.

Seems like he must be. I don’t watch the streams, but I do watch some Youtubers who summarize them. (Recommendation: Spencer of CasualSAB)
In any case, no not Kael, but happy to have you here on Kbin with us and, hopefully, my little summary/reposts help!

Also, anyone/everyone, post about your gameplay!

I just realized you probably were asking if I’m Kael or associated with Cryptic. I am not. I’m just a player and help by copy-pasting (with some editing).

Hopefully my summaries aren’t as typo-rich as the official ones. LOL
