As always on content drop day, play as soon as possible and play something established to get the progress.
New contend after that.
Bridger is right sooner ore later today the server will crash.
That's the beautiful thing about STO, you know what is coming.

How can you tell theres a new lockbox or key sale?

[GameplayAnnounce]RandomPlayer@RandomUser#111111 has acquired a [T6] Temporal Ops Juggernaut!

Waiting for one to land on the Exchange because I definitely want one

Pretty much, at the look I just had there's few of the ground weapons and the cheapest is 20m (way too much in my eyes) and the Obliviating Phaser arrays are sitting around 5m (less than I expected) - the omni-beam version however is about 600m so it's not coming cheap.

I opened a few boxes to see if I could get some weapon packs and I just managed to get a World Razer on the 20th box (which was my last one) - an unexpected surprise, but a welcome one.

I was immediately offered 600m for it which I didn't even dignify with a response.

One of the new ships I can show you now a new Nebula Class.

I'm assuming based on the Cygnus style deflector that it's one of the mirror ones from the upcoming anniversary pack?

I can neither confirm nor deny that.

I don't know how it was for you yesterday guys, but I could play the new episode without any hiccups and afterward purchased some items from the exchange. Honestly, I was expecting server time out any minute during the episode play.

I guess Cryptic did their homework and prepared for the server load in advance. I'm satisfied servers were working and I enjoyed the episode.

Now I feel bad, Hektu hooked me up with an omni, could have made some serious credits he could. but thank you buddy!

Same experience here. No issues with game performance and the only grumbling I did during the new mission was related to my use of a SS3 build when there are lots of Terran science vessels with feedback pulse amongst the general space mobs. So many respawns...and every one self-inflicted..... Other than that, seems like we probably had one of the cleanest new content drop days in quite a while.

Yes I killed myself very often in that mission with CSV that part was no fun.
