SBK, I haven't actually purchased any fleet ships but I think they have a cost that = #fleet credits + #ship modules. The modules are available from the store and exchange. If you are a subscriber, I think the monthly stipend is enough to pay for one module.

Fleet ships have an extra power that store bought ones don't. Take a look at the ships available at the fleet starbase.

Update - Thanks Jim Gamma \/ for the clarification.

^Actually, it's the other way round - the Store ships (which are normally Account Unlock) have the extra power, the Fleet ones don't. The trade-off is that Fleet ships have better hull, shields, etc.

If you've bought the Store version, then you need only spend one Fleet Ship module, plus ECs. Otherwise, it's four modules plus ECs.

This has been the worst patch ever. I've encountered so many bugs it isn't even funny anymore.

- Investigate Officer Report was removed, added and then removed on all my characters. Now it has totally gone missing.
- Playing foundry missions now net me nothing
- Liberated Borg Doff Store Unlock actually unlocks nothing.
- I got a new ship for my newly promoted level 40 character and I cannot assign any boffs to the ship.

^Not good, any word on fixes?

"Working as intended" I imagine

They keep bragging about increasing their staff, but none of them ever seem to go towards the testing or QA departments. More than half this stuff would have been caught if someone had tried to actually play through the content they're screwing with in an update.

The Foundry Officer Report is actually gone, not a bug.
Foundry missions now reward dilithium directly based on average playthrough time in theory.
Haven't tested that yet.
No more fleet marks for them, though.

Andorian fans, wake up.

I played the KDF Spotlight mission Storm Clouds today. Took me about an hour and rewarded about 2k dilithium and 21k EC.

Worth testing. It looks like I have my plans for tonight.

I was testing my own foundry mission, partly because I was testing some changes I've made and partly to see how much dilithium can be earned. I received 0 dilithium when previously the mission gave 440 dilithium, so I assumed it was bugged.

Perhaps Cryptic decided not to award dilithium to authors playing their own missions? Can someone please run my foundry mission, "Komahashi Maru"? Tell me how much dilithium you earn from it?

...

I keep having a problem with my bridge officers dropping out of their bridge slots and can't be reassigned. The workaround is to visit the fleet starbase area and reassign there.

sbk1234 · February 16 2013, 04:37 AM

Mine dropped out, but I was able to reassign them no problem. I have to say I actually like just being directly rewarded with dilithium for doing the missions. I think this is how it should have been all along.

This is what Mission replay should also be.
They finally have the tech to make dilithium a true time based currency!

I tried to play your mission, but the Foundry isn't working at all for me intrinsical.

I managed to find a nice quick one that gives about 600 dilithium and since its blowing up Negh'var's enough good drops to get a nice amount of EC.

Apparently the foundry server was down for about 4 hours.
