What happened to the playable Reman being a T5 Romulan Reputation unlock???
Or is it just that people who pay for this get the option regardless of their Romulan Rep status?
Please clarify.

We Lifetimers feel as if we are being backstabbed....
Where's the perk for being a lifetime member? There should be a discount or some other pack for those who paid the real bills to start this company. Please re-consider and dont alienate those who helped a huge way to get this going.:mad::mad::mad:
Thanks
I think Lifetime should unlock the Romulan liberated borg officer, and the 1000 day Veteran ship for the romulans, but that is all.
Asking for any more seems absurd, since the original life time subscription did not unlock a host of C-store ships for Federation or KDF.
Let us wear Swimsuits on Foundry maps or bridges please! I would pay zen for that.
Depending on your source, the IRW Valdore is described as a Mogai, Norexan or Valdore class (the sourcing on the Valdore class monicker is very weak however).
STO has, on more than one occasion, named a "newer" version of a ship model after a famous predecessor (Sao Paolo, Beleraphon, several Birds of Prey etc). This is no different.
"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." -Thomas Marrone

I don't feel stabbed in the back
This is an expansion, in every game expect to pay something when it has one. The money we paid was already used up years ago. C-store and subs have been paying for this game a lot longer really. I personally just want our LTS benefits (Liberated Borg) and preorder exclusives to be honored
It still is. The C-store version is for people who haven't grinded Romulan Rep yet and don't plan to.
Anywhere official that conclusively states that they have not gone back on their word with this? My trust of PWE isn't exactly high...

We have a Dev Blog planned that will reveal our LTS/ Veteran/ Gold rewards -- we're still going over the details internally, but we'll have it out as soon as everything is finalized. I will make sure that we get it posted in plenty of time before the "limited time" price goes away.
Also, I will say that at launch, Romulans will not have a 1000-day Veteran ship available; however, we are planning to address this as soon as possible.
Q: Can I use the Reman "Nemesis" uniform on my FED/KDF characters? How about my Bridge Officers?
A: Only Reman characters and Reman Bridge Officers may use this uniform.
Going by that, my Reman BOff on my Fed and Klingon characters can wear the Reman Nemesis uniform. True or False?
Is it possible, between now and the 21st, that more items can be added to the pack(s)? If so, will those items be given retroactively to people who buy the pack now? What I'm hoping for here is the addition of a character slot
Seriously - this is ridiculous! And I don't mean the packs, but the fact that even though I own almost all styles that are available in-game, am a lifetime subscriber (and when I bought the sub it was the beginning of my love for ST... I was thinking for a long time if I should buy it or not, but... this was like the best decision I ever made in my gaming life ), and even though I have huge amount of bills to pay this month - I am still gonna purchase this pack.
And why am I going to buy that? Because of the ships? The Remans? The awesome uniforms? Nope... because I REALLY want to have the Rihannsu title... and that's as geeky as it gets .

Do I have to buy these pack(s) as a lifetime sub or will I already have access to them as a lifetime sub?
This Pack is a C-Store sale. It has nothing to do with being a Subscriber. You don't get free C-Store items as a Subscriber. Just because you have an LTS doesn't mean you get a free Kumari, Vesta, or ODDY. Likewise being an LTS doesn't mean you get free Rom C-Store ships.
STO is about my Liberated Borg Federation Captain with his Breen 1st Officer, Jem'Hadar Tactical Officer, Liberated Borg Engineering Officer, Android Ops Officer, Photonic Science Officer, Gorn Science Officer, and Reman Medical Officer jumping into their Jem'Hadar Carrier and flying off to do missions for the new Romulan Empire. But for some players allowing a T5 Connie to be used breaks the canon in the game.
This stuff will likely all be available separately (except maybe the titles), so if one specific ship is all you want there's no reason to buy a pack now. Just get it if everything in the pack strikes your fancy.

You dont have to buy them if you dont want to have those ships at a discount before launch. After launch they will be available as regular C-store purchases like any other.

I feel like they should add in character slots at least 2 to these packs it would make them a lot more enticing for those who don't have the slots to make Romulans... Unless they plan to hand out 1 free slot at launch to all players....

"Participation in PVP-related activities is so low on an hourly, daily, weekly, and monthly basis that we could in fact just completely take it out of STO and it would not impact the overall number of people [who] log in to the game and play in any significant way." -Gozer, Cryptic PvP Dev
When does this offer end i could not see a date + not every one gets payed weekly
It's probably going to last at least until LoR launches on the 21st. After that it's no longer a pre-order sale.

Please - cost-justify this to me. I'm listening.
It sounds like you need to cost-justify to yourself playing STO altogether compared to any of those other three MMO's, first. You're already playing STO at the opportunity cost of other MMO's you actually enjoy.
Somebody getting uppity about canon? No problem! Just take a deep breath, and repeat after me:
If we have the Borg BO's unlocked via retail version (in US it was Amazon but not sure who did it international), do we still have to get the Romulan version of this by a separate purchase?
And if so, does that mean those unlocked for Fed and KDF are worthless to a new Romulan character then?

People who pay don't have to grind; people who grind still get the Remans unlocked. The dev tracker will show posts about this.
Are those really the Scimitar equivalent?

It's just a big C-store sale. The actual expansion is still free.
On another note, I like the cute banner they made to replace the "Peanut Labs" one.

Still waiting to be able to use forum titles
Those are the prices people are willing to pay.

i wanna know i got 125 euros waiting here.
If so, which ones, or all of them?
Think about this:
American Football has been in open beta for 144 years. ~Kotaku
developer blog is supposed to be posted in few weeks detailing that info.
only thing we know atm is 1000day veteran ship is there.
And if so, does that mean those unlocked for Fed and KDF are worthless to a new Romulan character then?
