    Meow Meow. =^^=

    Though I don't plan leveling another KDF toon any time soon, I am intrigued by the 'bonus cosmetic options for your Caitian characters!' part. but there is no description as to what that includes, is it just the earrings or is there something more? =^^=

    I'm intrigued as well, I'm hoping for something like mane's or more hairstyles or bigger breads. I'd like an epic beard on my Kitty!

    Ahhhh Feresans, the Anthro Space Viking Tribal Telepathic Cats. I must say, I'm loving this new race.

    I cannot justify buying a new species in a faction that has been left for dead by cryptic. if we had details on what the caitian mods the feds get from this, then that would be different...

    I'm honestly shocked they didn't add Jem'Hadar/Vorta, Cardassians and cross-faction Ferengi and give them a racial "Super-Efficiency" with their respective lockbox ships. Would have fueled lockbox sales and alt creation.

    So far all I've seen are patterns for the face and one new hair selection (Mohawk). At least, I'm pretty sure these weren't in there before... been a while since I created him.

    Yeah, eight (smallish, no big swaths) color patterns, the Caitian mohawk and there's now a cropped (amputated) tail option I never noticed before, and unlike the others doesn't seem to require the Ferasan pack to use.

    Are the Caitian cosmetic options that are unlocked strictly for Captains, or do they apply to Bridge Officers? I have Catian officers on some of my Federation crews....

    I noticed that a few days ago - but it wasn't there when I created the character. Was it sneaked into a previous patch somewhere?

    Lmao! Well said ;) Cryptic just copy/pasted the FED' cat species, made minor visual alterations, and passed it on to KDF. No no these are "new", really... and just for you xD

    The dilithium vendor in the KDF shipyard has been Ferasan for some time, and I've often wondered if they were going to add it as a playable race.

    The cropped tails went in when they added the hairstyles last? patch.

    This applies to Caitian options, not Ferasan.

    Males got 8 patterns to apply to the face. First 4 are just some small highlights around the eyes. Last 4 are facial patterns. They also got the new mohawk hairstyle. They did not get any of the nose piercings, or earrings the male Ferasans can use. Nor did they get any of the new beard/mouth accessories.

    Females also received the same 8 facial patterns and the mohawk hairstyle. They did not get any of the Ferasan earring options, only the same ones they had previously.

    So all told 8 facial patterns and the mohawk.

    Of the patterns:
    1) rings/highlights around both eyes
    2) ring/highlight around right eye.
    3) ring/highlight around left eye.
    4) a sort of egyptian looking highlight to both eyes, it's around the eyes then stretches out to a point just under the ears. Reminds me of some kind of superhero eye paint thing. I dunno.
    5) jagged vertical full face stripes. Reminds me of Darth Maul.
    6) something that looks like claw marks over the right eye
    7) something that looks like claw marks over the left eye
    8) polka dots... ok not sure what to call it. tiny little dots all over the face. Also they're very light in color even with maximum contrasting colors. IE black dots on white cat.

    Hope that helps.

    ETA: If any Devs read this, how about making the mercenary outfit cross-factional since you didn't give Ferasans a unique uniform option? They really shouldn't be in KDF uniforms...

    I'm a little rusty on my Star Trek Online lore, but where does the Ferasans fit into the story? All I caught from the description is that they are related to the Caitians.

    Ferasans are Kzinti. But Cryptic cannot call them Kzinti due to legal issues with the Niven estate, so they just changed the name of the species.

    And the looks as well. As Kzinti doesn't look like that.

    I said it before, and I'll say it again:

    THIS SHOULD HAVE BEEN FREE TO COMPENSATE US KDF PLAYERS FOR THE ABUSE

    Brandon, please pass along this feedback.

    We'd love to see Playable KDF and Fed Cardassians and Jem'Hadar. And even KDF Ferengi. Why? To match the very rare ships:

    NOTE: If they consider Carassians, please add proper necks and/or the 2409 Cardassian Uniform that covers up the lack of proper Cardassian necks.
    I'm honestly shocked they didn't add Jem'Hadar/Vorta, Cardassians and cross-faction Ferengi and give them a racial "Super-Efficiency" with their respective lockbox ships. Would have fueled lockbox sales and alt creation.

    Next playable species to come... Dogians. Cryptic come on now. A galaxy full of potential and you couldn't just come up with something original? What about Elephantans or Crabbians. And people are wondering why there is no actual new content xD

    I gave in and re-rolled and im glad I did, as a vet it brings back many memories running through the old content again. Especially kinda symbolic playing through and seeing the old old qnos in flames. Kinda symbolic for the state of the way things have become in the game when you think about it. Anyways thought id share:

    Kitty Power !!!

    Clicky :

    Sword Of Khaless

    Nine Lives FTW

    I'm still new to playing the Klingon side, with a Ferasan species. However, my tail looks cropped and cut, no matter how I try to adjust it in the Tailor options. All other Ferasan players have normal full-length tails. I'm stumped on how to fix my tail.
