Huzzah! The new patch is here for Star Trek Online, and it is decidedly chunky! There’s so much good stuff in here that tomorrow I’ll be dedicating my STO Open Beta liveblog to seeking out the changes ingame. First I need a little nap, as I stayed up for the patch note release! Headline Updates! * Level Cap Removed! * Cardassian and Romulan Sectors are now open for Federation Players. * All bridge officer candidates offer a free basic [...] Mostly more stability fixes. General * Many changes were made to improve game performance, especially time to transfer between areas. * Address issues where level ups, rewards, skill purchase, and item transactions would lag for several seconds. * Fixed an issue where some clients would freeze on the loading screen. * Fixed an issue where some powers you dragged to your power bar were not saving their location when logging back in. * Fixed an issue were some powers [...] We’ve had another downtime and patch tonight in the Star Trek Online Open Beta: Star Trek Online 2010108b.16 Patch Notes General * Fixed an issue where the client would freeze at the loading screen. * Fixed for several of the performance issues that were causing powers to not draw as well as FX not playing. * Made several server side adjustments to ease an issue where transactions were being delayed. This would have many different impacts such as spawning [...] Looks like Cryptic are taking the “test” part of the STO Open Beta Test seriously. A Good Thing. They’ll be keeping us in the starter areas until we’ve given them a good working over. I’ll be live-blogging the Open Beta launch later today.

You will not be able to access Romulan, Cardassian, or Borg space until [...] All this, and Frostfell starts tomorrow too. Wheeeee. I’ve already dug out my bag of Frostfell hats and cloaks. Maltheas is looking forward to popping over to Freeport to point and laugh at the Overlord’s ex-flying fortress. He only ever visited it once, in an ill-fated attempt to assassinate The Overlord (the original Freeport to Qeynos betrayal quest). It is a fine thing that such a symbol of Lucan’s oppressive dominion over Freeport has been laid low. The most relevant [...] Everquest 2′s Game Update 54 is mostly a bugsquashing release, with an eye to dealing with as many long-standing niggles as possible before the next expansion, Sentinel’s Fate, arrives in February. Alongside that, we of course have the return of the Frostfell celebrations (Yay!), and a new monthly event which will celebrate each city of Norrath in turn. Frostfell is Maltheas’ very favouritiest time of the year, and he’ll be digging out his special Frostfell hat and robe very soon. [...] Ooh, new content!!! It seems to be mostly member-only (which I am anyway), but I guess that’s OK for now. Our latest update has a ton of new stuff. Here are the highlights: * There are new members only combat, non-combat and collection quests added across the world (see below for details). * Bristlewood now has its own warpstone * Added in several new in-world minigames to Seaside * Pets will stay happy, clean and fed for longer and [...] |
