    And why are they "supposed" to look more like a fandrawing from the internet than their actual appearance in the movies?:confused:

    Here is the 'canon' look of M'ress.

    MRess_zpsf504e839.png

    The 'fan drawing' does a great job of capturing this look while at the same time including the style STO's Caitians are shown in the game - a more lion-type look than cat.

    Honestly, if I had my druthers, I would have liked to have seen the artist who worked on the Caitains stay closer to the original cat-like appearance as shown above. As Lincolninspace has said previously in this thread, right now they look too much like lion heads attached to human bodies. But that is neither here nor there at this point - they are what we have. :P

    Now if we could just get some hair styles for them....oh, and patterns too. :D

    I would have liked to have seen the Kzinti in their CGI form if Enterprise had went on to the 5th season.

    That feresan model looks nothing like star trek online, I think that would be better for the Caitian/Feresan battle for superiority.

    That's because it isn't Ferasan. It's Kzinti. Ferasans basically became the substitue for Kzinti since CBS wouldn't allow them in-game due to legal issues.

    it looks nothing like a ferasan model because it isn't; it's a kzinti

    I think it is horrible for the hero of a storyline, but great for the antagonist, which I think is what they are, the villains.

    By the way, I just got my Caitian today!!!! :D They jump like Kangaroos!!! XD

    it's horrible any way you look at it, because not only does it make a creature with that kind of defect look utterly ridiculous, but physics just doesn't support a body structure like that; tiny waist + overlarge and bulky upper torso and shoulders = top-heavy being that has a hell of a time balancing, not to mention its spine would snap like a twig

    and that's why they're so useful in IGE/N; it makes the mario-hopping BS at the end a little more tolerable

    First of all, yes the spinal cord could snap, unless they have a more durable bone structure than humans but that is taking a giant assumption there. Secondly, He isn't exactly top heavy because he has large digitigrade legs that are close to the ground, and they are spread apart quite a bit. Still, it probably would be more a stretch of fiction than of science.
