By LaughingTrendy | Wed 03 Dec 2014 03:07:01 PM PST

General:

  • Embassy Romulan Bridge Officers can now have their uniforms customized in the Tailor.
    • These uniform options will not include faction specific uniforms such as Starfleet uniforms.
    • This also is applied to all Embassy Romulan Bridge Officers which have already been purchased.
  • Gamepads and Joysticks now function as they did prior to the release of Season 9: A New Accord.
  • Level 45 Captains are able to equip crafted Mark 12 items and items upgraded to Mark 12.
  • The Voyager bridge interior options have been added to the Fleet Long Range Science Vessel Retrofit and the Fleet Long Range Science Vessel Retrofit [T5-U].
    • In order to access the Voyager Bridges, a player must have purchased the Intrepid Bundle or the Pathfinder plus Interior Bundle in the C-Store.
  • The Fleet logo is no longer upside down on the Pathfinder.
  • Resolved an issue where the Pathfinder's rear weapons would occasionally fire from space near the ship instead of the correct point on the ship.
  • Beam animation more accurately fires from the gun barrel on ground weapons.
  • Phinneas Mudd should no longer spam players in range when he is closing up shop and leaving.

 

Content:

  • Resolved an issue where players could be pushed out of the Voyager Turbolift during “What’s Left Behind” if teamed with other players.
    • If this occurs, the player will be automatically beamed back to the hallway.
  • Borg Red Alerts now set Captains and enemies to level 50.
  • Injured Gekli in “Viscous Cycle” Advanced and Elite can now be healed.
  • Undine now spawn to attack the Orb in “Undine Infiltration” Advanced and Elite.
  • Dyson Sphere Battle Zone: Re-balanced how player's scores are calculated for open missions.
    • Previously, missions were being too generous with points for tasks that were not critical to missions and too penalizing on tasks that were critical for missions.
  • Resolved an issue which caused the holographic Voth Battleship in “Alliances” to return to 100% hull strength if the player is defeated while fighting it.
    • Once it has been sabotaged by the Doctor it will not go above 25% hull strength.
    • Also, its shields go offline once the player has completed the main mission objective and is simply attempting to defeat it.
  • Delta Marks are now offered as a reward choice for the PvE queues “Storming the Spire” and “The Breach”.
  • Delta Mark boxes now auto-unpack upon receiving them instead of being placed into the inventory.
  • Delta Quadrant Patrols:
    • Doubled the amount of rewarded Skill Points for all Delta Quadrant patrol missions.
    • All Delta Quadrant missions reward 10 Delta Marks instead of 5.
    • Updated the Parein Patrol reward to include loot since it is a disable all enemies instead of defeat all enemies mission.
  • Resolved an issue in “All That Glitters” which allowed players to take the Turbolift before completing the “Speak with the Doctor” step which would then block progression.
