What's the justification for you guys adding the Rhode Island variant to the C-Store and giving it a very broken defensive sci-only console like you did (when the Tribble patch goes live, of course)?
Are we going to see the Jellyfish designed by Geordi La Forge?
It was in the Timeline article around the year 2387
The Daystrom Institute has announced the successful launch of the "Jellyfish," an experimental spacecraft equipped with trans-metaphasic shielding designed to withstand conditions that would destroy most other ships.
Ahhh so many good questions and ideas. Cryptic take note!
Would it be possible to let the players upgrade lower tier ships so that they could use them at Vice Admiral rank? For example, say I want to run with a Constitution class as a VA, but because its a lower tier ship, its not as effective as a T-5 ship. Basically, any plans to let VA's (only?) be able to gain the ability to use their favorite ships (effectively) and not just be restricted to what we have at T-5?
PS - Just like to say thanks for all your hard work guys, hope to see more great updates in the future!
Question:
We have voiced our opinion for Klingon race uniform additions. We have seen Orion clothing added, Nausicaan, and some changes for the Gorn but nothing for Klingon-race toons in the KDF. We have been asking for additions like different hairstyles, fingerless gloves, and an honor cloak similar to the one Kruge wore in Star Trek 3. I know it is a matter of a little art work to get in and add these things, but as well can we get a change to the shoulderpads? The layered and standar issue armor looks nothing like the movie/show armor from the side profile.
Ok, so my question is when can we expect KDF armor additions for Klingon-race only, and when are we ever going to get an honor cloak?.. We have defeated scores of baddies, won glorious battles for the Empire and all I get is this stinkin' t-shirt....lol.
STO has drawn on much of the various ST novel series for portions of inspiration. (Aventine, Captain Calhoun, the Captain's Table, etc.) Are there any plans to incorporate elements of other epic ST novel story arcs into STO. I'm specifically wondering about the Caeliar Gestalt/Borg scenarios from the epic ST: Destiny trilogy...
When and how am i going to be able to purchase C-store uniforms, bridge packs, ship skins and ships in game. When will the KDF have similar C-store and in game options to the FED. And why are there more and more items added to the C-Store without any progress on the in game avaiblability of items like the connie refit,
1) Forward Weapons (up to 4 Slots)
2) Deflector
3) Engine
4) Shield
5) Devices (Up to 4 Slots)
6) Engineering Consoles (up to 4 Slots)
7) Science Consoles (up tp 4 Slots)
8) Tactical Consoles (up to 4 Slots)
The difference between the different tiers of ships are the diferent slots allowed at each location. Why can't we just keep our regular ship and just "Upgrade" it by adding slots to allowed locations. Rough example: The difference between a T1 Escort and a T2 Escort is 1 Tacitical Console and 1 Forward Weapon, why can't we just add those to our current ship? \
I mean the ships are just costumes right, this would allow people to keep thier favorite ship for the entire game.........
BTW: My example is off the top of my head, it may not be exactly right but should convey my meaning,......
Why have there been NO additions to space pvp since launch, only the removal of space assault and Marks of Honor (even though you can still get Marks of Exploration)? Is there any plans to change this?
The current Fleet Action Que's are a bad idea. Can we please have them back the way they were... I.E. :- open instanced, with the addition of the ability of setting up a "private" instance for a "Fleet and/or team of friends"...
Are there any plans to release more canon ship interiors (Galaxy, Defiant, Intrepid, Sovereign ext.) or is the TOS Constitution interior going to be the only one?
When are we going to see any improvements to the lifetime subscription??
After all some of the things that were exclusive to the life timers are now in game for the people who have over 400days subscription time
Are we going to see new things put into the game for lifetimers or not as it's stated that "More on way" and we haven't seen anything in the time STO has been active.
When is the new Enterprise-F planned to be launched after Series 4 or before. Also what will be the ships special ability, amount of consoles for each department, and will it launch with its own bridge pack and custom ship interior TOS was fantastic it would be a shame not to launch more like it.
Can we expect ground vehicles like the Argo or personal propulsion systems such as jet packs or the propulsed boots that ambassador Spok used on the fifth film: The final frontier?
Are there any plans to release more canon ship interiors (Galaxy, Defiant, Intrepid, Sovereign ext.) or is the TOS Constitution interior going to be the only one?
This is something really would like to know.
Now to my own question...
Are there any plans to allow C-Store items on Fleet Uniforms with a system to check if the player owns them?
I'm not able to hop on STO as often as I would like (out-of-town frequently), however, it'd be handy to keep up-to-date with the goings on. It would be nice to have an STO app for my smartphone that would give me: maintenance notices, announcements, mail, fleet events, etc. Optionally, 'fleet chat' would be nice, general character information, buddies logged in, etc. I'm sure you could get marketing's buy-in on it if you pitch the idea of including advertisements on a splash screen.
Are we ever going to see the level cap increased anytime soon. How about letting us reach the rank of Fleet Admiral and have our own fleet to command (all the other class ships that we own). It would make for some epic battles!
Looking at the Console /BoFF layout of the R.I. that is on tribble....is Cryptic going to try and release other ships that are (Insert Tier).5 from here on out? I, for one (and I am a ship collector) wouldn't want a Tier 5.5 ship released in the C-Store. Its one thing to release a ship with a different BoFF/Console layout and with a new power to add variety, its totally another to make a C-Store ship greatly outclass any normal/in-game ships.:mad:
1. More non-uniform costume options (GLASSES - the the ones w/o lenses in CO)
2. make a base costume set for ship NPCs (SCI, ENG, TAC)
3. the ability to PLACE BOs in/at specific seats/stations on bridge, infirmary, engineering
- have my chief Eng and and maybe another one in Engineering (maybe randomly show up on bridge)
- have my Second standing or sitting next to my captain's chair?
- have a generic tac officer at the helm
4. Any update on the Doffs?
5. Upgradeable / retrofitable ships to next or higher tiers
6. New ship interiors
- Hallways to just the captains room??? Not like the show
- Customizable ready room and captains rooms. Which stay as they are when you change ships.
Are there any plans to stop forward movement on content and start bug fixing? The amount of "bugs, unintended issues, and intermittent failures has reached a point *personal opinion* that warrants a serious look at the code to start fixing errors
I would not agree more!! This season is so full of game crippling bugs that it defies the imagination. I am not talking about little annoyances like an buried anomaly. I am talking about basic systems like key bindings that worked great in season 2 and 3 and are now bugged to the point you can't even fly your ship! I have no idea what happened to the very responsive organization that existed in season 2 and 3. Yes there were bugs then too, but you managed to hammer them out as you were able and things ran fairly smoothly. Now I am getting the impression that Cryptic does not care anymore.. I would love nothing better than to tell people about how great Sto is and how much fun it is. But right now it's a bug ridden and unplayable mess! Oh I will maintain my subscription for the time being.. How long I will is up to you guys. You guys need to get back to being loud and proud and telling us that you do care and are actively fixing things. Otherwise you will have your subscribers leave in droves. That would be sad..
Are new era specific, smaller interiors (like the TOS interiors which have already been done) being planned somewhere down the line? Such as TNG/VOY or NX-01 ENT interiors, it would be really great to have these for people to choose what they prefer. Also are there any plans to change some of the C-Store bridges? The Intrepid bridge is one in particular which does not look anything like the one from Voyager.
In the "Future Content" section at the Star Trek Online Wiki site, it states that this is planned:
Ship interiors for either Galaxy or Sovereign ship, like TOS Constitution
What I'm curious about is how you plan to decide which one to do. Will we be treated to a poll and majority wins or will you be going in chronological order based on what aired first?

This is something really would like to know.
Now to my own question...
Are there any plans to allow C-Store items on Fleet Uniforms with a system to check if the player owns them?
When will the Iconian / Udine / Romulan story pick up? This is a hell of a summer break for production :P
Any word on more canon ship interiors? Defiant, Intrepid, Galaxy, Sovereign, NX, etc?
Will there be any shift in the Federation / Klingon Empire war?
Will the small craft / Shuttles & Fighters be getting more functionality out of them? i.e. missions?
Where do babies come from?
More details on any/all of the following:
Akira refit.
Kumari (Andorian ship)
DS9 based Featured episode.
New set items
Any tweaks upcoming to Borg adaptation?
Is Gozer getting any backup to unbreak STFs?
Status/update on DOFF system
Are we ever getting a female walk that doesn't make make our college educated space naval officers all look like brain damaged hookers?
Any word on the Carrier updates that have been rumbling around the Klink shipyards?
