We all know that Klinkons has been treated badly my Cryptic, very little content and compared to Federation very few ships and other stuff. and now Cryptic releases another faction.

This is the final nail in the coffin of KDF.

    since Cryptic obviously now going to spend time on fed and romulan guess what faction gets 0 time. yes, you guessed it. KDF will get nothing, nada, zilsh.

    this is the legacy of Dstahl's promises.

    Nothing.

    That's just further proof that the Klingons have been shafted! Somehow!

    aye, you CAN create in Klingon, but that does not mean they get any upgrades or content, they will be 3d in priority after fed then romulan, so guess how much will be KDF made...I can tell you... nothing

    and who plays a faction that has nothing to offer? or no updates or any personal storie lines, they share everything with federation, but get nothing for KDF, while fed and romulan gets their own stories.

    Yeah, they have been treated poorly...

    ...less tedious leveling, much better doffing, the best faction-specific episodes (gre'thor-storyline > all other episodes) out there, better and faster access to dilithium as well as the best heavy carrier, carrier pets, escort carrier and faction-specific pvp-ship ingame in combination with 8-weapon slot, cannon-mounting fast-turning cruisers.

    Yeah, you're right. The KDF has absolutetly nothing to show for. Really feels like this:

    Yes, do show us your evidence.

    Klingon Faction is now playable from level 1. Meaning our player base will expand substantially for new players.

    We have substantially more KDF content as well, via STFs, and new storyline missions from ranks 1 thru 19. If not more, additional missions from 20 thru 50 if these new "enemies" the Romulans are battling are also enemies we get to battle.

    We'll find out in 2 hours.

    right, ever tried levelling a klingon when it started out? ever compare amount of missions except grinding between klingon and fed? and do you find that the the klingon has anywhere as near missions than feds? or is it more "explore this cluster until you fall down dead" part of levelling.

    I remember a time when pvp was the only way. but then again I played from the start of STO.

    and I heard all the promises and the lies from Cryptic and Dstahl.

    I don't get how people who play KDF exclusively - and you'd expect to empathise with the Klingon mentality - can be so unbearably whiny.

    We KNOW there is new Klingon content coming in May. It was confirmed a while ago.

    You're taking Stahl's word as gospel? Yeah, that'll never come back to bite you...

    In any event, there is zero information as to what is going into the 1-20 bracket. All KDF players have to go on is Cryptic's track record of KDF content production. Or more accurately, the utter lack of it. They have every reason to be incredibly skeptical.

    Do you really think that any of that makes the general lack of KDF-specific content, the more difficult leveling path, the generally crappier ships, the lack of customization of both ships and characters, the absolute need to buy half the stuff you list on the C-store AND the straight-up lying done by Cryptic about the KDF faction to KDF players?

    Now, I'm not saying that TC is right about this - I'm personally taking a wait-and-see approach - but if you're going to actually stand here and say that the KDF's gotten a fair shake in STO, you're off your rocker.

    Klingons got shafted because they'll now be able to start at level 1 and have a ton of new content, both Klingon specific and non Klingon specific?

    I think you need a class on when it's okay to play the victim card and when it's not.

    KDF will increase in numbers starting from june I guess after the new star trek movie launches and since new players will be able to play kdf from start it is a good news.So in fact it will be "Hello KDF "

    Now If they will be some new ships for kdf too :)
    then I personally will be satisfied.

    Sorry but have to come out and say that for all intent purposes Cryptic have shot over the moon on folk's expectations and I for one am very excited for the state of the game, the KDF faction and the release of so much more content.

    I'm not saying it did get an equal share, I just refuse to see the whole faction so negatively. The KDF has lots of areas where it excels and is simply better and more enjoyable than the Fed side.

    The claim of some KDF players that the faction is dead, doesn't get worked on and gets "shafted" is simply an outright lie. I've gotten more enjoyment out of additions to the KDF side in the past year, than to those on Fed side.

    lets compare, you tell me where KDF excells better than FED and I will tell you what FED has vs Klingons as far as content goes...k?

    ok thats not true... what criptic has been doing is balancing the factions... and klingon still has the best pvp stuff in the game... you have battle cloak, abilitie to shoot torpedoes without breaking the cloak, carriers that have the highest crew in the game, you have aceton assimilators, drones that drain energy, you have the best combat hangar pets for free players, now if federation had all of this yes you could say criptic was not balancing the factions but we dont have... so dont complain...
    And now klingons may start from lvl 1 what more can you ask?
    the only thing i would ask for fed side would be the battle cloak, everthing else would just ruin pvp with massive drains until you have no powers...

    I can understand the argument on both sides of "the coin".

    I do wish (and hope it happens when the new content is added in may), that the Klingon's (as well as the Romulan's) to have a beginning story/ quest with which you begin with , (like you do as a federation character).

    Sometimes I create a new federation character Just to play the beginning again. I Absolutely Luv it!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    Anyhow, I do wish and hope they create a similar thing with the Klingon's and Romulan's.



    I also understand the argument about the ships. The federation side does have alot more ships that you can choose from to purchase from the zen store. It would be nice to have more for the KDF as well, yet then again, it's not really the fault of anyone , for the klingon's as far as I know, never really had much variety for ships anyhow....

    So in a way, it's sticking properly to the story in such a way.

    yet hopefully they add more ships.

    The costumes for the klingon's are not as varient either, (again much like the story of star trek), yet it would be nice to be able to purchase outfits such as some of the commanding officers wear in the game...


    Besides that which I have mentioned, I really don't have any other complaints about the Klingon side. I do enjoy being a Federation character more so than a Klingon, that's due to the fact I like the ships and the space stations and living quarters better.

    Oh one other thing which would be great to have for the klingon side is better interiors for the ships, such as allowing lighter rooms besides the colour red.

    My Main suggestions for the klingon side:

    1- have a great beginner story/quest like the federation has.

    2- more better costumes to buy, (such as being able to wear what commanders wear).

    3- Allow the purchase of different coloured interiors for ships, (instead of red all the time).

    Thoughts/ opinions?
