The level of excitement to feel over the newest Star Trek Online will depend entirely on whether you are playing on console or on PC. If you’re on PC… well, this patch has bug fixes. There were issues with accidentally setting players AFK sometimes after the Model Rocket event, for example, and that has been fixed. Issues with some patrols have been fixed. You get the idea. Necessary fixes, but not particularly interesting ones.
Meanwhile, if you’re on console, this is the patch that actually unlocks the First Contact Day event and allows you to make progress toward a specialized universal console while building model rockets or taking part in a shootout against time-traveling Borg operatives. That’s a rather different experience. Whichever platform you’re on, the patch will lead to a better experience in the game, but it’s pretty indisputable that one of those changes is a bit meatier than the other.Source: Official Site
