    Probably would be conflicted with Liberated borg which comes with Lifers.
    To grow old is inevitable, to grow up is optional.
    Please review my campaign and I'll return the favor.

    As long as it is limited to lifers, it would be cool. I would even be satisfied with adding Borg implants to current races. If something like your suggestion is done, then a species respec is necessary.

    There is Four of Ten which is a Borg Andorian npc and the Borg Caitian duty officers from the B'Tran Colonization missions.

    if you pay attention to the tutorial some of those borg heavy tac drones look like jem'hadar borg.

    but i believe all liberated borg should be lifer only. or a very steep Cstore price, in which you could only by one specific liberated borg race per purchase.

    I think keep the liberated borg, with it's stats, lifer only.
    BUT, borg tech pieces should be able to be used on any character.

    I am willing to give up the exclusiveness of liberated borg humans/klingons to non-lifers if liberated borg aliens are limited to lifers.

    The 7 of 9 implants work on most races.

    Been asking for this since launch...

    Being a lifer should unlock Liberated Borg to all races, most races don't have very many required traits. Aside from Gorn...

    For example a Liberated Ferengi would have Borg Nanites and Lobes.. instead of the immunity trait..

    Liberated Bolian would have nanites instead of Corrosive blood since I'm sure their blood would of changed in the process.

    Its not really hard to figure each one out....

    I'd settle for "Liberated Borg" (no Human/Klingon in the name) and have it as an Alien Gen with Borg tech costume options and with Borg Nanites and Efficient as required traits.

    We wouldn't get things like Ferengi or Gorn but it would open up alot of options. I may not know much about programming but given the recent tailor bugs which revealed all costume parts could be mixed and matched, I don't see it as being that difficult to make this a race and add a couple of required traits.

    If Ferengi aint an option, then I can't support this change. :P

    I can't see why Ferengi or Gorn.. wouldn't be allowed TBH

    Adding the pieces to the Alien gen would be great as well

    The only reason why I could see Ferengi or Gorn not allowed is due to their heads. If a species has a human looking head like Bajoran, Vulcan, Orion, and Andorian, then there is not an issue of clipping or other weird stuff going on. The more alien looking the head, the higher of a problem there is making decent looking liberated borg. I suspect that the liberated borg race will be a limited version of the alien race where certain alien pieces are not available..

    Then again, what's to say the borg pieces just didn't burrow through the ears of a Ferengi? As a lifer who mains a Ferengi and for those who main Gorns. I don't think we should be left out, I paid the same amount as those who'd enjoy a Liberated Andorian.

    from what i can see the liberated race is wanted by all the idea i have for this suggestion was
    this.


    1. choose liberated

    2. choose the race that gets liberated for example caitian

    3. the liberated race goes through a special starting zone before starting the main game


    some games often have special starting zones before starting the mmo's main story
