I have to say i just loved the new TOS interior, also i was wondering if there are any more interior packs in the foreseeable future besides the shuttle interior? One i would like to see is a TNG or Voyager pack because the main engineering on those ships are so unique. As i like things to be canon i would LOVE to see more interiors from the shows.
I don't think the shuttle interior is going to be C-Store because I could have sworn they want to do mission involving them and that would present a bit of a problem.
I would love to see a Tng interior too as tng is my personal favorite
Me too, my favorite mod for Voyager Elite Force was a TNG Interior one.
I felt so happy roaming the halls and going to the bridge or the shuttle bay.
It had multiple decks, bridge, shuttle bay ( with door that opened) with a joined cargo bay (with transporter), sickbay, engineering ,security, ten forward.
Id have to say id love to see a Galaxy class interior, even the current Galaxy bridge we have right now is pathetic...bad textres...wrong lighting and blue LCARS which is a big no no.
I really hated the Galaxy Bridge Pack, except for the Order bridge (I really like Dark Red as a color so I kinda like it, though the mini chairs by the officer chairs on either side of the Captain bother me. ) but the others are way too far from a Galaxy.
They have way too silver a color, the lcars are off, they have this ugly piece of plastic at Tactical that ruins the good looking wood, and then the ones in game is horrible and in need of a rextexture :mad:
It would be nice, but after seeing all the nit picking going on within 5 mins of the TOS one being live, it wouldn't surprise me if we never get another interior pack.
Whats even more amazing to me, is its the people who paid for the item, and now they are complaining about it, when they fight tooth and nail for C-store stuff.

There are some nitpickers for sure.
But, there are also some legit wrinkles that need ironing out. Touch up work if you will. That sort of stuff I feel does need to be addressed, and I doubt the legit wrinkles (Quality Control) will dissuade Cryptic from making future bridges and interiors like this.
Personally I've been happy with the TOS interior (despite being more of a TNG/DS9/VOY era fan, like most of us here going by forum comments). Good layout, very immersive and authentic, scale is spot on and there were some nice touches (all TOS crew, shutters, Jeffries tubes).
I noticed a few minor issues - mostly bugs common in STO (specifically door/shutter/character animation issues, shutters visible floating in space outside at least one window when in the "open position", NPC's trigger the door to your quarters to open, trophy item placement could do with being tweaked, partly due to ship trophy items being oversized, the otherwise nicely done medical bay has a clipping on items in the cabinet and a chair you can only reach by jumping, some reversed text on the transporter console, some minor texture alignment issues...) but ... overall the best player ship interior in the game.
(I was notably happy there were no NPC's getting stuck in the walls or map holes in the bridge leading to space, unlike in some of the existing Klingon C-Store bridges. *cough*)
The only thing that concerns me about this is the game really needs an awful lot more content of this quality and better (and this close to the IP) added to it to flesh it out to a reasonable degree and expecting people to pay the cost of this bundle a dozen times over or more (for ENT, TNG, VOY, DS9, and potentially other faction content for KDF, Vulcan, Andorian ships...) is going to burn up a lot of good will (and possibly take longer than people will be willing to wait).
I can afford it and if I'm honest I'm enough of a Trek fan to do it several times over, but it's clear that doesn't go for everyone and long term I wouldn't be happy about it unless I was seeing a lot of other improvements to the game at the same time (of course I understand a huge amount is pretty close to getting released in the form of Foundry and ground combat revamp, but the fairly aggressive pace will have to be kept up throughout the year to keep momentum going, so here's hoping it all works out).
I agree with some posters who said they feel it grates to have it as a C-Store item when there isn't really a comparable polished offering for regular ship interiors. I think having great ship interiors is such a huge deal for the Trek franchise and as great an idea as the Foundry is and while it's clear ground combat needed looking at, the lack of really polished interiors (and how they are integrated into the game) still really stands out in my mind as being something conspicuously absent in STO (I thought the Federation and Klingon ship interiors in missions were frustratingly really nice).
I really like everything that Cryptic have said about the direction they want to go with interiors (making them player customisable, adding interactive shuttle bays, mini-games in the long term), but given all the existing stuff they have to work on I'm left wondering when they are possibly going to be able to get round to even thinking about bringing ship interiors up to what many players would consider a reasonable level of polish & value.
Somewhat ironically, that we have half-finished interiors (and now a really nice TOS interior) actually draws attention to what we don't have by making us all think "wouldn't it be great *if*...".
Last night, I paid a visit to my I got to watch the chief actually beam an NPC aboard, who then proceeded to walk out of the transporter room and down the hall.
I'd love - nay, kill for! - Defiant and Sovereign packs
Well i thing they filmed a lot on Voyager-sets for the TNG-movies so beside the bridge and Enginiering (beside the fact that the "standard-enginiering is a Souverign enginiering) a VOY and Souverign-pack could come together.
I personaly would LOVE to see ENT-enteriors. You might hate the series, but the Sets where, in my opinion, the best ST-sets ever....

Personally, I want a TNG Pack and maybe a Defiant pack

It was so awesome!
Totally worth it.
They had some seriously awesome TOS interiors as well.
Starbase 11 was my favorite thing ever.
I wish it was in STO.
but it might be ages away.
i believe this is the sad truth of game making. it takes time but when we get it, its like Christmas.
They have way too silver a color, the lcars are off, they have this ugly piece of plastic at Tactical that ruins the good looking wood, and then the ones in game is horrible and in need of a rextexture :mad:

It really does bring to mind the old story
"If you give a mouse a cookie..."
*****That does not apply to all STO Fans*********
