New Bridges

shadowkoshshadowkosh Member Posts: 1,688 Arc User
I know this may have been brought up before but if Cryptic did new bridges what would you want to see as a new bridge? Back when they revamped the Fed side when you graduated the academy they interior of the Miranda Class looked cool and I thought they said it would be added but never was but I digress. So what bridge's would you like to see in game if they were made?

PLEASE DON'T POST AND SAY IT IS TO HARD FOR THE DEV'S!!!!! I know this already I am just wanting to see what they players would like if they were going to make new one's.

I would like to see the following

Enterprise Bridge NX-01

Enterprise Bridge TWOK, STV bridge & STVI bridge

Excelsior Bridge Search for Spock and STVI

Grissom & Reliant Bridges

    from what I've heard it's rather hard to build ship interior which is why we won't get new bridges without a really good reason for it.

    I know that but if you had a choice of a bridge what would you want.

    NX

    According to established precedent regarding Lobi and lockbox ships, it should already have one anyway ...

    Any bridge/interior that was seen in any show/episode/movie that we have a corresponding ship for should be in-game.

    I really don't see a reason why to add new bridges at this point...

    It makes no sense: No one goes there (sorry RP community, but it seems that you are too few to offset the "no-one" margin), and there is nothing there that you can't do better in other places, and that makes the effort entirely offset the cost/benefit... There is just no win.

    But IF they were go back to it, I'd much rather see them re-work the old bridges first... Most of them are either insanely huge or just look wierd and out-of-date (they already did from the beginning).
    Don't look silly... Don't call it the "Z-Store/Zen Store"...
    Let me put the rumors to rest: it's definitely still the C-Store (Cryptic Store) It just takes ZEN.

    Romulan's could REALLY use a few more bridge options.

    And ppl let Cryptic get away wit it by buying the ship, after all. :( Don't reward laziness! I would have gotten the new NX instantly; but now they're getting niks from me.

    I see it the other way around.

    The Romulans have an actual decent looking bridge.

    Whats the Feds/KDF need is a universal bridge/interior that doesn't look like complete ****, and to axe all the others not tied to lockbox/lobi ships.


    Yeah, no. The FED Intrepid bridge pack is the best looking bridge/interior for... FED. Not to mention the C-Store Odyssey bridges. Roms, for any ship not being a Scimitar, just has the 1 single bridge, which is really starting to show its age.

    Lobi ships without a special bridge should be discounted.

    For the NX, it is either laziness to not create the Bridge, or there is something coming down the line in Temporal Shenanigans Episodes where it will be part of the story and they do up the Bridge then.

    My money is on the former. ;)

    Yeah. I hope for the latter, but I fear the former.

    For a moment there I read 'discontinued.' But yeah, not going to pay 900 Lobi for a ship they couldn't be bothered to outfit with a special bridge. It's part of a longstand gentlemen's/gentlewomen's agreement between Cryptic and the player, that Lobi ships get their own bridge.

    This...and to add, because bridges don't sell well enough to justify their creation.

    Well, the "insanely huge" aspect (which applies to not just the bridge but the rest of the interior... It's quite offputting to be in a pilot escort, go to the lounge, and realize that the windows there are big enough that they would require a noticeably large window on the exterior) is due to game mechanics, specifically camera angles. If you were in an appropriate sized interior for a pilot escort, then panned the camera around, there would be a likely chance of the "camera" being inside one of the walls, meaning that you ain't seeing diddly squat because the bulkhead is blocking the camera view.

    Things I want in STO:

    1) More character customization options such as more clothing options, letting the toon complexion affect the entire body, not just the head. Also a true RGB color picker applied to all costume and appearance options, which would allow for true appearance customization and homogenous colors instead of "this same exact color looks vastly different on two different pieces."
    2) Bridge customization, not bridge packs. Let us pick a general layout and adjust the color palette, console appearance, and chair types, as well as more ready room layout options.
    3) Customizable ground weapons, i.e. The aesthetic look of phaser dual pistols but they shoot antiproton bolts. For obvious reasons this would only apply to standard ground weapons.
    4) For the love of Q please revamp Plasma Ground Weapons. They look like demented Supersoakers right now.
    5) True Vanity Impulse and Deflector effects similar to Vanity Shields.
    6) A greater payout for hitting T6 Reputations. Currently it takes more time and resources to get from T5 to T6 than it does to get from nothing to T5. Make that grind really pay out at the end.
    7) Mirrorverse Refugee event similar to AoY/Delta/Gamma, complete with new Mirrorverse recruits for all factions.
    8) Independent Faction, because yo ho yo ho a pirate's life for me!

    Yep.

    IIRC, Cryptic has said it takes an average of three months to create a unique ship bridge/interior.

    You just can't do that for every ship in the game.

    The bridge packs in the c-store weren't great sellers...thus why Romulans never even got a second bridge.

    It also makes sense from a storytelling perspective. The Republic is literally rebuilding their civilization in the midst of what can be generously termed "a crisis of galactic scale." At the time, their primary goal was to get ships into space to defend themselves and the rest of the galaxy. I imagine that internal aesthetics were kinda low on their list of priorities.

    I want an NX bridge for the 2 NX Escorts I bought,... I'll be happy with that.

    All 'alien' ships in the Lobi Store, Lockbox, Event, or an R&D Promotion come with a unique Bridge. That is the extent of it, no other area of the ship. If they don't want to go through the fuss of creating other decks/areas of the ship like they did with the botched implementation availability of the Pathfinder/Voyager, so be it. At least go through the motion of creating the BRIDGE for the NX.

    If not, they should have not placed Federation ships in the Lobi Store, Lockbox, or an R&D Promotion Box.

    PERIOD.

    I would like the TNG/Galaxy interiors arrive in time for the anniversary and receive the same love as Voyager did. Same with Sovereign, but the Galaxy takes priority of course.

    If we're talking about just bridges, then NX. Anything else is simply icing.
