Gonna be very interesting... are they ground or space? Or are they mixed?
Been playing STO since Open Beta, and have never regarded anything as worse than 'meh', if only due to personal standards.
We can buy MIRANDA'S now
I want a T-5 Version !!!!!!!!
:P

Chroniton Torpedos Fix and More Hull for B'rels (the carriers pets now have almost the same hull than a brel lol)
Vin Naftero@playhard88 - FED Sciencie
K'tan@playhard88 - KDF Tactical
Argento@playhard88 - RRF Tactical (FED)
The added stuff for the Foundry is nice, but could you please add the ability to select some of the "interior" backdrops for Exterior maps?
At the very least if you could give us a space-style backdrop with a large amount of ambient lighting that would help a lot for making custom interiors.
Jupiter Template Issues
There seem to be some issues with the new Jupiter template, namely that it doesn't look like Jupiter at all. The texture of the planet might be fine, but there's such a glaring bloom that it looks nothing like what we see in pictures of the planet. The glare needs to be seriously cut down.
Click here for my Foundry tutorial on Creating A Custom Interior Map.
Clearly our rivals have entered into an unholy alliance.
Considering we've got folks complaining about having so many special boffs being uncustomizable, I think this is a step back. Especially since at least some players hold on to this officer fro the entire game.
and Marauding xp?
Increased to what? and by how much?

Three years and still no Captain Klaa hair...
Here's a thread for feedback and bugs:

Note that the way the planet look will depend on the backdrop. The artist tells me that it's intended to work with the Mars backdrop.
Also, The new Doff powers don't seem to have been added to bound Doffs
At Lt., who can afford the 8,000 dilithium?
UUmmm... Where? I couldn't find it.

You wont afford it if you get rid of the free one you get when you start the game.If not you can fight in your space suit
Don't forget that you can buy c points at any rank /level
Lt. Ferra has some information on it, but not if it is at the fleet starbase or if it is random.
Yes, having the Miranda in the dilithium store is mainly so that you can get a new one if you dismissed the one that your character started with. A number of people have voiced their desire to be able to do this, having dismissed theirs and then regretted it.
The Colony Invasion mission is a VERY articulate little mission that is a lot of fun to play. The Mugato Boss SHOULD NOT attack players EXCLUSIVELY. I cannot imagine a mad animal only angry with and trying to kill FEDs instead of everyone it sees. It was a "Tactic" to anger the Mook and lure it to attack the enemy as well. This was a BRILLIANT thing that was just taken away.
IF the Mook prevails over the nearby wave of enemy, the players have to attack it before the last wave of enemy in order to complete the mission properly anyway.
I really think the mission was better BEFORE this specific change was made.
PLEASE seriously consider changing it back.
Looking forward to all the updates, keep it up.

The opinions expressed in my posts are my own views and do not reflect on any other entity(s) or person(s) I may or may not represent at the time.
The starbase incursion mission is very cool. had a blast doing that.
the weapon holstering is epic (the omega force rifle does not seem to holster) but the others do and look good. the duel pistol one is especially sweet.
some much needed map updates to the foundry. great to see things like bajor in there.
