I'd go for Bajor, myself. But then, I like Bajorans, and Risa could never live up to the expectations set for it. I mean, its THE place to go on vacation, right? Sunny beaches and cuties will still underwhelm people.
Of course, if they had mini-games like racing, volleyball, etc., that could be cool

bleh risa in this game isn't risa. There are no horgons to be found anywhere on the planet. The risian natives are severely overdressed, and theres no hotel like structures.
Risa is just another cookie cutter planet hastily thrown together by the development team.

Well yeah, it would need a bit of an overhaul also :cool:
I'd love to rebuild Risa. Just a matter of getting it scheduled. . .
Whilst my opinion is little more than a drop in the bucket, I'll say this.
I would squee over a Risa overhaul, complete with some mini-games like surfing, volleyball, etc., more than a new featured episode. A Risa overhaul would give me more RP potential in the long run.

I always referred to it as Gilligan's Island, "No Starships, No Shuttlepods, not a single Ferengi".
If Risa was to get an honest revamp, I could easily see them making the cliff-side resort from Enterprise. In one hut you have your private quarters (in it's own instance), and you have other Starship Captains (with their own tales, perhaps some connected to the Foundry). As you travel to another, you might start seeing more unscruplous types like Ferengi businessmen who are haggling, then at the far side, you start getting to dangerous parts of the resort where you start running into dangerous criminal elements.
Along the beach, of course you got the beach with its tourists and Risan offering their services. And nearby you got the dance hall (that we saw Worf and Jadzia hide during the terrorist "assault").
I'd rather Risa was another social adventure zone like New Romulus, where instead of earning reputation towards gear and powers, you get off-duty costume unlocks and access to fun non-combat PvP mini-games.
Laws of thermodynamics as applied to life: 0 - You must play the game. 1 - You can't win. 2 - You can't break even. 3 - You can't quit.

Think Cryptic wants to do a weather system but they seem to want a reason to do the weather system. Risa had a weather control device if you recall so doing that on risa and doing weather on risa would be a great incentive imo. When/if you get around to fleshing out risa taco.

Well I would love to see swim-able water (Sinking Data maneuver floating device accolade), realistic rock climbing (Spock jet boots accolade), jungle hikes, archaeology digs(Picard dug a hole accolade), flirting mini-game (to get rewarded horga'hns and maybe even some accolades like the Riker Maneuver), getting massages to fix ground damages (T'Pol accolade), get all the available swimwear (Trip Tucker III accolade), Klingon training cap (Worf accolade) to name a few ideas that I would love to see on Risa.
Talking about revamping already available planets / social zones. Andoria needs dueling tournaments with ushaan-tors. Both PvE and PvP. Open to both factions.

Honestly, I would be quite amused to find a Leisure Suit Larry homage on Risa... perhaps as a hopeless Gorn in a speedo..

Surely the motivation would to be able to turn up to work in swimmers and a beach towel each day? To get in the right frame of mind. :cool:

Things to unlock:
1. Bar/Restaurant area with skimpy dressed waiters/waitresses (for us guys ) and musclemen (for you girl players)
2. Massage areas: You get buffs after you finish massage sessions (+health, +regen, etc)
3. Beach outfits (let your imagination run wild here :P)
4. Casino (well can just be dabo)
Yes, i support this!!
[SIGPIC][/SIGPIC]
Yes, yes, YES!!! I like all these things! And if we get swimming tech, we could finally have Zero-G tech too!!!
Maybe the KDF can get some training center in a wild jungle as their version.

if you have not played the game it is a bunch mini games and you buy swimsuits with the points you get from playing the mini games.

If you ever do, make sure Risa has a suitably large convention center for all those "Medical Conference on Risa" doff assignments :P
It would rock if they adapted the "slip sliding races" to the beach, with a bit of extra sand-kicking particle effects.
Ever try to run on loose sand?
