1. Many players have alts in this game. Would we be getting an account wide bank any time soon?
2. Fleets really have not had much love. Will we be seeing some improvements to fleets sometime soon?
3. There are many players who will not buy extra bridge officer slots until its account bound. Will there be an option in the future that we can get an account bound option even if its more than what it is currently for just one character?
Are we ever going to see more trophies for ship interiors? Specifically i'm thinking about wall trophies we are able to earn as mission rewards. As it seems to me many of floor trophies can be won by simply completing missions (and therefore easier to get), while wall trophies mostly involve grinding (and therefore a bit harder to get).
I know that this is a minor issue of aesthetics but i'm still interested.
1.) Is there any chance as seeing some kind of marine life aka whales in San Fransisco Bay? It would be great to see some humpback whales jump up when you go to the academy.
2.) Are we gonna see sometime soon some missions involving stories in the holodeck like Dixion Hill or Captain Proton? I would love to fly around space in Captain Proton's spaceship if it's a reward.
3.) Will we ever have gear, missions, or bridge sets from the movies? I would like to see the Wrath of Kahn bridge set or maybe a FE series dealing with the Genesis Device.
Thanks and I hope you answer at least one of these questions.
Is there anything CBS will allow you to say about the Enterprise-E. Destroyed? Assimilated? Went to Betazed and can't find out how to get back to sector space? (;)). Your last mention of the Enterprise-F said there was not alot you could say about the E model due to CBS, which leads us to think that CBS has plans for the E outside of STO.
1. It was stated some time ago about ambient lifeforms on planets. Will this ever happen? was reminded about it when SFA released and whales in the ocean would of been nice.
2. how about bundles in c-store that include both fed AND klingon content. I.E. the academy pack that owuld have klingon and fed academy uniforms, stuff like that.
3. please more multi-player gameplay, this is an MMO, i.e. more STF's at the different level brackets.
4. now that klingons are starting to get love, is there an ETA on Romulons?
5. Has anything been decided on a Klingon flagship?
First of all Thank You! for answering one of my questions, I hope you will add a way to by-pass cutscenes soon.
Now on the the next questions and observations
1) Will the vendors & Freighters ever have any items other than common ones?
All vendors only sell common items, There is no reason to ever trade with Mudd, The Ferengi, anyone on DS9 & other Stations because they never have anything but common items. I think it would be a good idea to mix in some random Uncommon & Rare items to make it worth going to these people. I only go to them when I want to sell items, I only buy Heals from any of them.
2) Can you create a better search engine for the exchange?
You cannot search for certain BO's or their powers. When you limit the return to 400 items there is a chance that an officer I'm looking for is not in the search list. Could you also make it so it searches by word instead of string. You have to know what you are looking for exactly, you get better results by searching by word instead for sentence.
3) Could you add reports to the Fleet Bank?
It is almost impossible to know what is going on because it counts it as a withdrawal & deposit if you move something and it looks like it doesn't record the deposit all the time.
4) Could you number the missions in some way?
When you bring up your mission journal it has them in alphabetical order, not in the order you should be playing them
5) Can you add an option for creating your own ship costume that all of your commissioned officers would automatically chance to when you commission them?
It would be nice not having to change every officers costume with each commission.
Q: Cpt.William2 Will we ever see the "Mission Replay" feature complete, with Patrol missions and older versions of the remastered missions? And when? What kind of updates can you give us about earning C-store stuff in game?
A: Now that Season 4 is launching and the content team is busy making new missions, the software team is looking into some very specific issues related to making mission replay easier and more complete, updating and simplifying the mission journal, as well as adding more clarity to what missions are available to you in a more meaningful way. In addition, we are working on a feature that would potentially allow players to trade Emblems for C-points (which also involves making more things available for Emblems as well). This could potentially open up the ability for players to, in effect, trade to obtain the items they are after. I'll give more details on this in upcoming engineering reports as the feature gains more traction internally.
6) In this answer you said you are working an a way for players to trade Emblems for C-points, Would this feature be account wide? and if it is account wide will we also get an 'Account Bank" to make it easier to move items to your other character?
It would be nice if I could let my other characters use my other items.
Sorry for so many questions, but I love this game and think some of my ideas are good and in each of these questions there is something to make the game easier to play.
I hope you will answer at least one of these questions....
but this time if you answer one of these questions could you spell my name right ...
It's psytce not pystce ... lol ....
One Sector Space to rule them all: Could we please have an elaboration on this? What plans, even if preliminary, do you intend to do for the entire map? Will Betazed show up if there is a single map, for example? Will you adjust the space between systems? Thank you.
#1 Will it be possible to change our uniform while aboard ship, via my captain's quarters? and without having to spend EC?
#2 It was mentioned that we will be seeing more ships introduced into the existing tiers of ships, any updates or designs available yet?
#3 Will there be a launch ceremony, that we can attend, for the new Odyssey Class USS Enterprise?
#4 What is Cryptic's long term goals for STO, story wise?
#5 It was mentioned a while ago that there seemed to be more to the story of the ill fated Enterprise-C, is this still something you guys are working on or has it been scrapped?
#6 Speaking of Enterprise stories, what would the definite answer be for us knowing the fate of the Enterprise-E or are we just gonna pretend that it was decommissioned so that the ENT-F can have the spotlight?
and last but not least...
#7 Ok, I have to ask it, tell us something exciting about STO that we don't already know, please!
What's the story behind the rumors that any additional KDF ship skins will be C-Store exclusive?
When will more of the species-locked KDF uniform options be opened up to Alien Chargen, or wider?
Moving forward, it's been said that you wanted to tie Ship powers to swappable consoles. Has there been any progress in making this a retroactive thing? Can we put the Excelsior's Transwarp coil into more ships?
With the addition of a Shuttle Selector NPC to the transporter room, any chance of additional functionality coming to Ship Interiors? A Tailor at the closet in your Captain's Quarters, for example?
Will there be knockback protection given from armor on the ground, or any source other than traits?
Will there be lower tier player versions of Orion/Gorn/Nausicaan ships? Even using the NPC model as a stand-in until you make better versions for players would be fine.
Will KDF characters be allowed to go to the maiden voyage of the Enterprise-F?
I will be happy to send a few torpedos her way as a present!!
She is afterall, a very pretty ship and I do look look forward to destroying her kind in PvP.
Now that the KDF has access to all sector blocks except the Sirius Sector Block, will the KDF be getting a transwarp ship like the Fed's Excelsior? A tier 5 K'tinga might be a good fit for such a power.
With the new BoP, Raptor, and Battlecruiser ship costumes being developed are there any plans to introduce any new KDF ships to the C-Store, not just costumes?
Has there been any further thoughts to making the NX class ship's grappler into a console that can be moved to other ships? It is after all the only Tier 1 C-store ship that has nothing to offer later tiers. The Oberth has a console and the Constitution has blue phasers.
With the upcoming costume revamp, removing off-duty slot, will it be possible that can get and wear uniforms or parts of other factions? Say bought from a ferengie for latinum, chose able veteran reward, spoil of war etc.
When will you guys change it so that when you logout you go back to the character select screen instead of to the login screen?
When will you fix the annoying constant ingame interface beeping noise?
Why are diplomatic missions not considered similar to normal missions in the mission journal? I'd like to see my current diplomatic missions in my progress journal please.
With remastered missions in the works for the Federation and due to be done by this winter, can we hope for more Klingon-specific content soon?
I'm not asking about Featured Episodes that can be played by both factions, nor remastering the few the Klingons have, but new, different Klingon side only missions.
The Empire continues to whither for lack of it.
1) Can we hope to see the banks changed to Cargo Bay, the consoles to use it be transferred to our Ship Interiors, more precisely our Cargo Bay or in our bridge? That would be more Trek and also give more importance to our interiors.
Fleet banks could stay in the SBs, while we don't have Fleet Starbases, and our Cargo Bays (Banks) would be accessible in our interiors.
2) Are we going to see Captain Nog (I think by 2409 he achieved Captain rank), Admiral William Riker and others famous Starfleet officers still on duty someday commanding a starship? That would be awesome, specially if we find them in a Weekly (Cpt Nog could appear in the next Weekly in Cardassian Space).
3) Are we going to encounter the Tamarians in a mission someday?
4)What about the changes to the crew on our ship? They just help a little in passive ship repair and are very easy to be killed, then, magically, they ressurect slowly after battle.
Why don't change it, using Star Trek - Klingon Academy game as a model? That was a very efficient way to make crew something important to keep and was a lifesaver several times.
5) Are we going to see new powers for all BOffs ranks and careers anytime soon?
6) Any new consoles and/or devices in development, to increase variety and combinations of them?
Will we be able to use "off-duty" costume options (Mercenary in particular comes to mind) on our BOffs once all costume slots are "standardized"?
Will we ever be able to buy extra costume slots for our BOffs (I'd love to have duty uniforms, special ops uniforms, casual wear, etc. on my BOffs without having to go to the tailor to switch)?
Once the costume slots are "standardized", will we be able to mix and match the former "off-duty" pieces with regular uniforms (I'm mainly thinking of the belts, pouches and bandoleers from the Mercenary set)?
Can we ever expect to see correct scaling of ships and or stations? With larger ships it is easy to just zoom out with the camera. But having the correct scale of ships would be very nice.
As the Akira class is already in the game and you also confirmed she will be available as a tier 5 ship, how long until we can expect to fly / buy that ship?
The captain klaa look from ST 5 for the klingons? U know, the long fingerless gloves with spiked knuckles, shortness vest option, and Klingon crazy hair?
Picards vest option from first contact? I want when hunting Borg so I hope you understand its a necessity lol
Getting an audio option in game to choose what kind of red alert we hear when we go to red alert? You guys made an option for us with sector space astrometrics mode and ground shooter mode so would it be much harder to just add an audio option in a menu somewhere? I'm sick of hearing the TOS red alert on my sovereign class, Dan the answer man
Does anybody care about the litany of bugs that are still plaguing this game, some of which that have been around since launch?
I started playing Rift. It's nice to have my powers actually activate when I press a button.
Now I'll ask a question that's not quite so jerkish. Will we ever hear from the Cythereans again? From TNG "The Nth Degree"? They seem like a cool race, like they would have a lot of interesting tech that could slowly trickle our way, perhaps through a future FE or something.
Will we bee seeing more Race-specific weapons (Bajoran Phasers, both pistol and rifle, Jem'Hadar Kar'takin polearms, Andorian Ushaan-tor, Klingon Mek'Leth and D'k Tahg, maybe some Cardassian Phase-Disruptors for ground and space) anytime in the near future (e.g., in Season 4 or just after Season 5 launch)?
Will there ever be a mission available where we capture and, if a ship slot is available, keep an NPC enemy vessel? And, if there is, will you draw aggro from the NPC race you stole the ship from (e.g., would Jem'Hadar ships ignore you if you were flying a real Jem'Hadar Attack Ship, DS9: A Time to Stand-style)?
Will there be an open-invite, 1-on-1 PvP area on Andoria (For the Federation)/Forcas III (for our Klingon friends) soon? If so, will it be melee-only?
Could we get a rough timeframe for seeing the first Ground Iconian enemies? Some of their combat abilities/weapons?
Will the Jem'Hadar be getting an update when FE4 goes live, or is the update Cardassian-specific? If they do, will they be using authentic Jem'Hadar energy weapons instead of the Polaron weapons they use now (Particularly an Anti-Coagulant healing debuff)?
Will the Klingons weapon merchants at DS9 ever sell Bat'Leths again?

That's pretty much it, and is what I ask pretty much all the time.

Now that the Klingons can go anywhere, are there any plans to make some Federation missions Universal?
I have nearly 500,000 GPL, is there anything else coming out that i can spend it on. maybe x amount for emblems?
Are there any plan to use crafting to make stronger hulls, shields, or engines?
When are the Klingons going to get something equivalent to the Hur'pang torps? after all did they not make it in the first place?
As the Akira class is already in the game and you also confirmed she will be available as a tier 5 ship, how long until we can expect to fly / buy that ship?
When will the refit Akira come to the game?
Will there ever be more eye colors available in the tailor?
Will we ever get the option to put our exchange officer in our uniforms?
Will Fleet Action trophies ever be given out to more/all people who participate and complete them?
Will more uniforms have double admiral rank pips?
We have Caitians, any chance of a fox-like race being introduced for players/boffs?
