    Hooray for Foundry Authors!

    Oh Flaky one, could you perhaps tell us what the Spotlight mission rewards will be?

    Any plans to add the Azure Nebula map from the new mission of the Vault exterior space map?

    This could be a really nice system, but a random piece of gear simply isnt enough of a reward for the time it takes to complete a spotlight mission. And requiring people to complete 3 missions(which will probably take at least 2 hours) for the foundry daily is also way too much for the reward given.

    Solutions: give more rewards for the spotlight daily and reduce the number of missions required to complete the foundry daily. Until then, there simply isnt enough of a reward to make up for the amount of time required to play foundry missions.

    Is there a timetable we can expect on adding new costumes to the foundry?

    Some nice stuff in there. The only thing missing now are the Tholians' contacts and mobs.

    Oh, and all those mirror universe ships too. And their ground units. ;)

    Okay, I'll stop now.

    "Critics who say that the optimistic utopia Star Trek depicted is now outmoded forget the cultural context that gave birth to it: Star Trek was not a manifestation of optimism when optimism was easy. Star Trek declared a hope for a future that nobody stuck in the present could believe in. For all our struggles today, we haven’t outgrown the need for stories like Star Trek. We need tales of optimism, of heroes, of courage and goodness now as much as we’ve ever needed them."

    What's this about "unorthodox methods"? Did she forget to include the bugs?

    Zero,

    Is the tech for adding the costumes similar to the tech for adding assets? I ask because it seems like you guys were relying on other teams to add a few things here and there, but they don't seem to have time to do it.

    Does this mean now that (IF our Foundry producer has time to do it) her awesomeness can add some long-requested assets like a transporter pad?

    Make them shake their heads in disbelief! You go girl.

    You get a new ship at every tenth level until 40, plus permission to buy any ship of the appropriate tier.

    For feds: Lt. Cmdr, Cmdr, Captain, Rear Adm LH

    For KDF: Cmdr, Captain, Brig Gen

    You only get permission to buy the final rank of ships (T5) at 50, NOT a free ship.

    Nice new assets, but really wish the many C-store ships and Starbases be added to the Foundry.

    I mean, yeah, Zero always seems excited, but I am amazingly happy that out Foundry producer is always excited, but something about the ...

    "A personal favorite of mine is the new NPC Group I added as an enemy type, Mugato. Honestly, it's my favorite because I learned how to add it all by myself. (It's like I'm a big kid now! Despite the head-shaking by the content team at my unorthodox methods.)"

    Part of what she said that makes her excitement particularly infectious in this Blog.
    You go Zero!
    Make those other Devs shake their heads in disbelief at you !
    Especially if you know how to add assets now.

    If you add it, we will build with it, and you can play with it. Just, you know putting that out there :)

    Seriously, I don't care what you add, yeah there's a list somewhere, I'm just excited that Zero's excited , like a kid gets excited, when she has a new toy to play with. Add stuff.

    Just stuff.
    Whatever you want.


    YAY !!!!
