i do think that a few less well known authors need to be highlighted as many of the recent ones have been authors who are already well known and well highlighted in podcasts and on the forums.
i know these are safe bets and easy to find (and its in cryptic's best interest to highlight awesome missions) but I would like to see some less well known missions by less famous authors get their chance in the spotlight.
Congrats to Admiral Murphy, definitely one of the great Foundry luminaries.
I agree that it would be nice to see some unknown authors get this recognition, this still isn't a mission I've heard of, which is great, and Murphy is certainly as deserving as any of us.
why do they keep promoting the foundry when everbody blatanly tells cryptic we want content not fluff or a quick fix thats all it really is. i mean its nice and all but it doesnt replace "reall" content
The Foundry is also an ideal place for standalone missions that don't directly tie in to the STO storyline. Pretty much all of Cryptic's set-piece missions are tied into some larger story arc. (Granted, so are many Foundry missions, such as my own, but still...)

It is. Pity many of us can;t get access to it still.
BranFlakes: The bug where many silver players can't buy Foundry slots seems to be fixed for some, but not for others. The button is either greyed out, or it says purchased failed when you go to buy, even though you have plenty of dilithium. Personally I resubbed to get around that, but then recently the button was greyed out for me a gold member. That changed after that half-day of foundry down time last week, and now I can buy slots.

There some reports of that on one or two of the previous spotlights, but it may have been people who didn't know they were too low for the level requirement, were looking at the wrong faction, etc.

Not everyone shares your priorities. You want to know why they're promoting the Foundry, because players asked them to, loudly and repeatedly.

I saw you posted something similar last week, and I responded, but not sure if you saw it
