    If your lucky, you might get some new KDF content around 2013-2014. If STO is still active by that time, that is.

    Nice. I really like this type of update. Makes players feel like they are part of a story.

    Just one thing though. I think there is a small grammar error in the second paragraph. "I would be good..."
    I think it was meant to be "It" would be good. Just thought I'd let you know.:D

    I love these build ups. Bajor is going to be awesome. Keep it up Cryptic.

    second paragraph
    I remember my last trip there. I would be good to walk the quiet mountain paths again, to wander the gardens and to hear the chimes calling the monks to prayer.
    shouldn't I be It.

    Nice read. But what are the Klingons doing on Bajor? I hope that gets answered tomorrow.

    Id like to point out a problem with the screenshot taken of that area of Bajor. The spire in the center only has 3 symbols on a single side. If this city is finished and populated that spire should have symbols on all 4 sides. each side having 3 each. That way the city can be found using the stars from the surface.

    Thats all that stood out. Besides that the story was top notch. I love how this FE series is being presented in this way.

    being realistic isn't being negative. sometimes reality isn't pleasant
    But what are the Klingons doing on Bajor?

    isn't it obvious?? they're there trying to get ahold of rare vintages of occupation-era bajoran prune juice (all that roast targ produces severe constipation in klingons and they need their prune juice to stay regular - can't fight the iconians if you're not regular), brewed by vedeks, under cardassian supervision, so they could sell it to the klingons in exchange for self sealing stembolts

    Judging from your signature and post its obvious your wishing for the failure of the game. Anyways on the topic. I love these kinda things. I love the connection it adds to the story. Keep up these kinda things Cryptic they are awesome.

    We likely had a battle group that escorted the delegation or were kept close enough to be called in if the Feds turned on them.

    When this happened, they would have moved in.

    You know, it would be nice for once...just ONCE....if I could read a forum post with out somebody forecasting the demise of STO. You've all been dead wrong before, and the odds are heavily in favor that you're dead wrong now.

    Anyhoo, I'm looking forward to seeing Bajor as well. Especially the day/night cycle.

    Agreed. I think we should talk to the Bajoran about leaving the Federation and joining the Empire.

    After all, just think of how many Feds look down on them. :D

    except that the odds are heavily in favor of there being no klingon content for a considerable amount of time to come. and frankly if they're unwilling or unable to deliver that - as they have been for two years now (what was that about all that klingon content we were supposed to get in season 4? half the team working on it? I remember that claim), then the future of the game as a whole is less than promising

    How many Feds look down on the Bajorans, or how many look down on the Klingons?

    Isn't the reason for the presence of the Klingons on Bajor down to Battle Group Omega? Since Admiral D'Vak has presumably had to relocate to Bajor from DS9 I'd assume that is the main reason for the Klingons to be present.

    Nice that the FE are getting glimpses into the upcoming episodes via story hooks, on a lighter note:rolleyes: I have seen into the future and STO is still going well up into the late 2055 before it was converted to a holodeck program for the elderly to relive their youth :p

    I em "human" true end trough ( 2x lvlv 50 human borg SF, one lvl 10 human borg SF, one Orion pirate chick lvl 50 KDF an one lvl 50 KDF alien looking like human ). but i second to this post, Klingon's folks and their "sub" races are such robust culture its really sad. Look I realize the Fact that making klingon PvE that make KDF sense ant is not always repeatable routine like random nebula missions is hard .

    They really do a great job on picking the names in these kinds of posts. In Croatian, "Neka" means "some", and "Ranjen" means "Injured". :D

    That was the war dominion vs federation alliance not the war between the federation and the empire. Odds are the bajorans are going to say the dominion isnt any worse than either of you so get out :) LOL

    I love to homage to 'Lost'.

    I can't wait to see this map, from what's been posted it looks pretty cool and it will be a new social zone, wicked.

    Fantastic read, glad to be seeing more of these. I still think we should see these in game either as a lore object (much like the Books in Hathon) or as an audio log drop.

    I did giggle for a second at Ranjen Epeeeeen.
