Achievements Not unlocking
I recently came back to the game after an iatus to finish the story missions and after a few I notice that some achievements is not unlocking.
Could check them all because I had already made some arcs in the past, but from now I can confirm?
That Borg Advance, Warzone, The Iconian War, New Romulus and Resistance is Futile achievements is not unlocking

Female Characters in Mission Window
I just started noticing this with the TOS missions. Since those uniforms have a sort of low cut or mid cut on the neck line it shows off more of the neck and collarbone structure. The problem is that the females look like their necks are swelled a bit so that they look like they have a case of "tube neck." Maybe its the shadowing or it could be from my end with the graphics (even though I am on max settings) but it's something I've noticed whenever a mission window is up and the female character has a lower neckline on her clothes.
I tested this on one of my female characters at the tailor to see if the same thing was happening there but as far as I can tell she looked normal. At any rate I was wondering if anyone noticed this as well. It's not a game breaking thing, just a little strange.

Unable to purchase certain level-scaling fleet starships due to rank restrictions.
I attempted to purchase a Fleet Vor'ral starship from both the KDF Shipyard and the Fleet Starbase and was unable to do so, despite being in a fleet with a Tier 5 Starbase and having the required fleet credits, fleet modules, and provisions to do so.
Further investigation showed that other Fleet Tier 6 ships were unable to be purchased for the same reason, including the Fleet Qehpu', the Fleet Negh'tev, and the Fleet Mogh, as well as others. The common thread amongst these ships is that despite being level-scaling starships, there is still a required minimum rank of Lt General to obtain them.
If these ships are supposed to be level-scaling, meaning that we can utilize them as early as we can upon joining a fleet, then why are they locked behind a rank requirement? Are they even supposed to be?
I thought I would bring this to your attention and hope for a quick resolution to this issue.

Missing Elachi Boff
After clearing the new episode "Beneath the Skin" one of the rewards is an Elachi Boff. After clearing that mission, I got the pop-up asking if I want to commission the new bridge officer, I had selected "Not Now" because I usually wait until I get back to ESD before comissioning a new boff.
I noticed that the boff is not in my inventory and cannot find it anywhere.

Red Alert with Swarmer Matrix
When this console is equiped, everytime when hangar pet is lauched (in attack or intercept mode), a ship goes into a condition Red Alert. Even during full impulse and even in system space where you can't be attacked. More people are reporting this so doesn't matter on ship or hangar pet.

Is not being able to team for patrols anymore as intended?
I tried to play patrol missions not just the new ones but also the old ones in team or private party but every time i launched it ended up being in there by myself. Is that as intended?

Cardassian faction
I am not sure which thread to put this in. if thsi is not the right place, hopefully, a Mod can move it to the right place?
PC game idea.
When the Cardassians were first introduced, they were a separate faction. Now, somehow, they are only available through the Starfleet or Klingon factions. Can we make them their own faction again?

Why is Plasma the only energy type without a mission based Omni beam array reward?
Every weapon energy type EXCEPT Plasma has an STO mission which rewards an Omni-directional (360 arc) beam array as a reward?
This is a significant omission since the mission omni can be mounted at same time as crafted omni, allowing ship to have two 360 arc beam arrays at same time. Plasma can only have one since the only non-crafted plasma 360 is the isolytic one from Son'a lockbox but I believe the lockbox Omni's cannot be mounted at same time as crafted omni, which is why the max you can mount on ship is 2 instead of 3.
The other energy types get these:
[Ancient Omni-Directional Antiproton Beam Array]
Mission: Sphere of Influence
[Omni-Directional Antichroniton Infused Tetryon Beam Array]
Mission: Butterfly
[Omni-Directional Chronometric Polaron Beam Array]
Mission: Time and Tide
[House Martok Disruptor 360-Degree Energy Weapon]
Mission: Brushfire
[Trilithium-Enhanced Omni-Directional Phaser Beam Array]
Mission: Beyond the Nexus
When will we get a mission with a plasma 360? Something soon I hope...I don't want to wait for Season 27 - Revenge of the Tribbles (who love plasma weapons) for this to drop.

So How Long are the New Mission/Que/Patrols?
so how long are they? What are the mission rewards? any reason to play it more than once?
Is the new Que a space one or ground? Or one for each so folks can choose?
Guessing you need to choose one of the 5 new patrols for the event... so how long are they and do they have any time gates built into the patrol? Do they have a cool down or can you do em again and again.

26c dread vs any flight deck cruiser
the 26c dreads are very expensive promo ships, boasting 8 weapons and 2 hangar bays as well as dhc, a previously unique combination.
now there are flight deck cruisers with 8 weapons, 2 hangar bays as well as dhc.
the 26c dread should be buffed, right now there's no reason to fly one over the flight deck cruisers or miracle worker flight deck cruisers especially, which are ships from 200 years in the past out-stripping ships from 200 years in the future in terms of consoles, firepower etc.
this should be changed to at least make the 26c ships worth getting for some reason over the miracle worker flight deck cruisers.

Kelvin timeline vanity shield bugs + gripes list
1) Bussard collectors. for a less star-trek technically texture artist, the glowing bits on the front of nacelles.
![YUQPrBy.jpg]()
as you may be able to see from this image, the bussard collector part applies at an offset angle. it's not centered on the center of the sphere. but the worst part is that this is actually the only configuration, on the only ship, where i managed to get this great visual to apply in a meaningful way anywhere on any of my ships. one of the main things that i was hoping for from this vanity shield was that this kelvin destroyer bussard effect would be applied more convincingly to all ships. but it's just not, on a lot of ships it doesn't even use the texture or it's stretched and distorted, or barely visible.
2) also in the above image, the deflector, again while it's nice on ships like this that have an external deflector, it's very plain and not very bright, or just not visible on ships that have a "physical deflector" like the jem'hadar dreadnought - as opposed to an external one. considering the main parts of the shield are the bussard and deflectors, it's weird they're not very prominent on a lot of ships.
3) the description has been consistently incorrect
![xcL8poM.jpg]()
the shield applies kelvin timeline federation skin to feds, as per the blog
the description says it applies altamid visuals, but as far as i can tell doesn't
the shield applies kelvin timeline D7 skin to KDF, not mentioned anywhere before i equipped it on a kdf
4) there is no secondary hull pattern for this shield
with a lot of previous vanity shields, for example hur'q shield, the areas of the ship that are secondary hull pattern have a different texture, giving the shields a lot of 'pop' compared to their standard counterparts. but the kelvin shield just applies the same texture to these areas.
5) disappointment coming from mis description
one of the main reasons to buy this shield would have been to get federation hull pattern on KDF, but since it has multiple styles, this is not the case, thus devaluing the shield. nobody wants to buy a green hull pattern on kdf, and not many people really want another fed hull pattern on fed.
if i was in charge of this shield i would have just made it the federation hull pattern, saved the kdf or altamid styles for later.
