Added beeps to the Singularity power/progress bar.
Added some new music tracks for Romulan ambience and combat scenarios.
Updated every ship in the game to resolve an issue that caused black textures for players using DX11.
The default setting for VO from contact windows has been updated, so that closing the window will end the voice over.
This matches the behavior currently seen on Holodeck.
Reman parts are now no longer available to players who haven't unlocked them.
Tsk tsk for trying to pull the sun down, though we admire the endeavor.
Romulan and KDF characters should no longer be so jittery or have seams on their necks during character creation.

Foundry: Resolved an issue where sometimes the shields on a ship would be reported as 1/-1 while previewing.
Romulans:
The Bridge Officers Tovan, Satra, Veril and Hiven are now customizable.
They retain their unique starting appearance and each has a small selection of unique parts that only he/she can wear.
However, players will also be able to fully customize these Bridge Officer costumes with all the body scaling, face options, hair options, and clothes options available to their parent species.
All of the Romulan missions are now available for those players in the closed beta.
Updated VO and text in all the missions to resolve instances where the two didn't align.

It's a lot less windy inside the Flotilla now.
Updated the Mail and Bank consoles on the Flotilla so that they can be used by more than one player at a time.

Gasko Blues: Bridge Officers will no longer slay the station commander.
Players will now have to do their own dirty work if they want him defeated.

Mirror Warbirds have been added to existing Lock Boxes!
Romulan Players that open these existing Lock Boxes will have a chance at receiving new variant starships:
Tholian Lock Box has a chance of containing a Mirror Universe Ha'apax Battle Cruiser Warbird
Temporal Lock Box has a chance of containing a Mirror Universe Ha'nom Guardian Warbird
Dominion Lock Box has a chance of containing a Mirror Universe Ha'feh Assault Warbird
These ships may be traded while packed, but can only be unpacked by Romulan Republic Captains.
All Warbirds now display their correct, updated stats when viewed in the Shipyard.
All Warbird descriptions have been updated, typoes removed, and gramer corrected.
Resolved an issue that caused the Fleet Ha'apax to display as a Subadmiral ship in the ship store.
It is now correctly displaying as a Vice Admiral ship.

Tsk tsk for trying to pull the sun down, though we admire the endeavor.
The pleasure was all mine :P
The Crystalline Entity queued event is now available in both Normal and Elite versions.
Completing this event awards items and Dilithium, plus a box that grants you your choice of Nukara or Fleet marks.
25 marks for Normal, 40 marks for Elite.
Quite a lot of ship changes..... but of course the poor old D'deridex was unchanged. Don't get me wrong, I like the current Boff Layout, but 3 tac consoles would have been nice.... You copied the Ambassador Boff layout so nicely, why stop there ? I wouldn't mind the same console layout (and turn rate) as well.
And somehow the only science heavy ship isn't science heavy anymore.....
No, no, no, no. You ruined my shopping list! Why did you change the LtCmdr Sci slot for the Mogai/Valdore with the Dhelan?
Who cares for the Delan. I want my Sci'y Fleet Mogai *breaksoutintears*:(:(:(:(
Looks like alot of updates, good going! And thanks for bringing the servers up in a timely manner as well. Hope players see as I do, a little downtime is worth for having things running better than before.
I'm actually happy about the Fleet patrol escort style Mogai.
Now I'll get a Valdore looking fleet mogai refit whith 4 armor slot consoles that will be able to pull its weight in an STF Without blowing to tiny bits.
However could we temporarily get unlocks for the C-store romulan ships on tribble please so we can test them?
Let us wear Swimsuits on Foundry maps or bridges please! I would pay zen for that.
You maybe happy but the science layout was alot better imo -_-; why did they have to change the mogai, one of the few ships in the Romulus fleet that can turn and use science well.. My tact sci hybrid is now basically boned.
Becuase we need another chimera which is a engineering focused destroyer... The layout before was a lot more unique and offered a different experience.

Been playing STO since Open Beta, and have never regarded anything as worse than 'meh', if only due to personal standards.

same here before this if you said "Mirror warbirds" youd face a nerd version of the spanish inquisition
Hopefully this change doesnt nerf our capes fluttering.
What the heck is a Ha'nom and a Ha'Feh?
Come on stinking Calendar get there already!!!!!!!!!!
Cryptic keep at it.
as for the calendar
Hurry up!
Also, I liked the Ha'apax's old Boff layout, now I need to see if one of these Mirror ships is more to my liking...
I imagine there's little else to explain the completely new names.

And knowing is half the battle...
The C-Store is disabled, so the only way to do it is to copy a character that has both Lock Boxes and Master Keys in their inventory.

Boy, do the Romulans need more ships....
I like that change

Not COMPLETELY new...they all start with the Ha'- prefix, like the Ha'apax, so I'm guessing they're variants on that.
