True, but isn't it kind of a fun trope for the game at this point? Perhaps even a trope for the shows?

Hopefully they'll work the update into a story. It'd be nice to have more narrative to changes within the game, as the new team takes over.

Note: This Earth Space Dock update is going live on PC at a later date (not 12/11). We'll keep you updated, and until then, enjoy this behind-the-scenes look!

Q’s Winter Wonderland will be available from December 3rd, 2024 at 8am PT to January 2nd, 2025 at 12pm PT. This event will run simultaneously across all platforms (PC and Console)

Event ship is "Eleos Intel Scout Vessel [T6]", as seen in this post.

Mudd's 32nd Century Legacy Choice Pack is coming to Xbox and PlayStation this week, together with 50% off Mudd Bundles on all platforms!

... All Mudd bundles, including those that have previously appeared in Mudd's Market, will be on sale for 50% off... from November 28th at 8am PT until December 9th at 12pm PT on PC, and from November 28th at 8am PT until December 12th at 12pm PT on Xbox and PlayStation

... the old Mudd Bundles appearing a little later here on December 3rd at 8am PT.

So, November 12th 2024 to December 3rd 2024? Maybe? Why is this article unclear? Fero is usually much more succinct and specific.

EDITORIAL (from Indy): Save your Zen. This is likely meant to get people to spend the Zen they have banked already, before the good Black Friday sales.

I'm not sure. I have seen anything about that. (Then again, I'm not overly interested in the ship, so I may overlook things related to it.)

Have you tested it since these patch notes?

I wonder if the "14th" is a typo and/or if the "21st" will be kept as the end date, considering this was posted today (2024 Oct 17).

October 17th, 2024 (8am PT) to November 7th, 2024 (12pm PT)

• Grand Prize: Beowulf's Blade (account-wide), 3x Featured TFO Reward Boxes, 25,000 Dilithium Ore
• Earn Progress with Cat's Tale TFO, Delving the Castle Patrols

Fair point! I think you're spot on with the quality of the episodes (as game pieces) themselves. Story, meh, but game design/graphics, wow!

We'll see what happens. As the famous trombone player said, "Fate protects fools, little children, and ships named Enterprise."

Well said. And it's been an enjoyable journey throughout.

Some of the stories have been lackluster here and there, but that in itself is Star Trek. Not every show/game/story is going to be for everyone, yet beautifully all are welcome as trekkers/trekkies.

The game will probably soldier on for a significant period of time.

Agreed, but I would adjust that wording (whether "solidering", "limping", or "on life support") based on how the first DECA content feels.

It will probably be in a “zombie” state, not unlike that of Champions Online (as I understand it, I don’t really play that game).

Feels like it has been since 2020, if not a little before, IMO.

We’re closer to STO’s end than its beginning.

STO 2 when? 😛 Joking aside, we really are near its end. I wish that 3D model company hadn't turned and run after taking orders (yes, they refunded eventually); I'd have liked to have some of my ships as models to remember STO.

Personally, I think they were just someone's way to get lines spoken as if from those alien comics (by Nathan Pyle) that are popular online right now. Lines like, "Evasion is beneficial to us" instead of "Watch out". Or "Observe" instead of "Look".

I don't think there's any real story to it or, at least, no story that anyone at Cryptic cared to create before leaving/sleeping on the project.

At this point, with as many years as STO has had, I'm guessing "shard maintenance" is just a chance to clean out the hamster cages for the next week.

I didn't even notice this posting. In fact, I was surprised when I saw the shard message in-game today; I figured they were skipping this week.

General:

• Resolved an issue that was allowing the power from the Polarity Coil Generator to appear on captains' hotbars even when the Console was not equipped.

From September 26th at 8am PT to September 30th at 12pm PT on all platforms, save 35% on Ship Bundles and Expansion Bundles in the Zen Store

This one was a variation on "Ninth Rule". Same system too. Like the other patrol, this one took about 3 minutes in a DPS ship while learning the mechanics of the patrol. It feels "slower" than the other patrol, probably because there's more hopping around the map (just like Ninth Rule). The waves at the end are super easy compared to even a Normal Ninth Rule.
