Master List of KDF Issues

edited April 2014 in Klingon Discussion
KDF players, help me compile a list of KDF issues so I can just point new KDF here rather than having to repeat this all the time. I'll subscribe to this thread and add anything I'm missing or forgotten and remove any that are resolved. Check "Last edited" on this post to see when last updated

Warriors may be interested in reading history of the Empire's struggles with Cryptic

Missions:
- Dilithium mining (daily) unlocks at level 24 instead of level 9
- Fleet Starbase Officer of the Watch (Daily) very buggy (can't inspect a targ's uniform for example) also not available at proper player level (currently level 21)
- Copy-pasted FED beamout colors and dialog references, particularly in Dominion storyline
- KDF voice over not on par Romulans
- Mission rewards still mkX rather than mk11 (Undine Front)
- "Keep Your Enemies Closer" reward not scaling up on replay
- Paratrinic shield array missing from "Test of Mettle"
- PvE queue missions and their daily/repeatable equivalents not available at proper ranks

Embassy:
- Exchange says unavailable even after unlocked, a proper 2nd button appears when closer.
- Transport from Starbase spawns at Embassy rather than Shuttle Bay
- Romulan Xenobiologist Mark X kit is not different from a standard Xenobiologist Mark X kit
- Senate clothes are unavailable
- Selecting extra Duty Officer assignment tab at the console breaks it
- Consoles can only be used by 1 player at a time
- Watch mission escorting a ship completable

First City:
- Fireworks unavailable
- Characters created pre-Legacy and not fully leveled are trapped on certain maps.
- Sparing circle has holes on edge (see here, here, here)

Academy:
- Exchange and Bank interact range is far too small

Ganalda:
- Wrong icons for vendors (Kit>info, P-equip>info, S-equip>commodity)

Equipment:
- Elite fleet disruptor dual pistols look like dual sniper rifles
- No armor visuals
- No kit visuals
- KDF Point Defense Console visual is phaser rather than disruptor
- Nukara Tribble unclaimable until level 21
- Romulans craft phaser technology

Costumes:
- No costume reward for T-4 Maruading
- No customization options for romulan boffs
- Clipping/position issues. Most can be resolved by having pieces (belts, insignia) moveable like tattoos, scars
- mid-drift missing for some female species wearing the KHG armor
- Baldric should have House(fleet) insignia with empire insignia and most have clipping issues with busts.
- Orion bare legs and boots. Feds can do this Orions can't.
- Very restrictive color palette options for romulans and KDF
- No Klingon 100-day veteran reward
- No female species for gendered species, even though FEDs have them even when lacking source material
- KHG Be'ves pieces missing for post-reputation characters (possible workaround)
- KHG helmet head-type missing for many players
- Missing Omega Harvester variant options
- KDF Aligned Romulans missing all Omega Force Hip Attachments
- KDF Aligned Romulans missing all Honor Guard Arm Attachments
- Winter Event Costume items don't give you the belt
- Uniform vests missing on Letheans
- missing Entrepreneur and Merchant lobi options
- costume slots bugged/locked out for some KDF
- NPC Nausicaans have ears, PC Nausicaans do not.
- KDFreman males have chest clipping issues

Ships:
- K't'inga model only displays the low-res model for players. High-res model only visible at great distances.
- Heghta deflector hard-point is in the neck instead of at the front deflector pic
KDF ships with assimilated parts do not get green warp nacelles like the other factions pic
- Fleet B'rel can't use B'Rotlh Template
- Fleet Hoh'Sus missing Veteran hull skin and warp in\out animation.
- Jem'hadar pets lacking advanced and elite purchasing options
- Slaver pet looting does not match costs and performance
- Suliban Cell ship transwarps to all clusters, including Federation, except KDF clusters

Commendation:
- T-4 Maruading Bridge Officers uneditable
- Romulans unable to purchase duty officers for dilithium
- Romulan transwarps are not unlocked

Duty officers:
- Romulan bridge contact provides an unusable Counselor contact rather than a Brig contact.
- Romulan initial cadre not awarded at level 11

Bridge Officers:
- Nausicaan Pirate trait mislabeled 1 2 and does not apply to either ground or space

PVE:
- "Breaking the Planet" unplayable due to lack of interest (recommend making cross faction and enemy Tal Shiar)
- "The Big Dig" unplayable due to lack of interest (recommend making cross faction and enemy Tal Shiar)
- unplayable due to lack of interest (recommend making cross faction and enemy Tal Shiar)
- Defera Invasion Zone crafting contact beams out and is not replaced for extended periods of time.
- Defera Invasion Zone teaming extremely difficult for KDF, needs to be cross-faction like STFs

PvP:
- Unable to tell faction versus faction queues have needed number of players
- Most PvP queues are unplayable due to lack of interest in waiting
(recommend adding mixed faction queue)
- KDF and FED have lost their distinction with console sharing. (Recommend stop sharing consoles and give faction specific kits, i.e. Targ Handler kit)

    PvP could use a bunch of new apces, and ground maps...the ones we have are pretty stale..

    Holding off on additional add to your master list till after the current patch on tribble goes live.

    Marauding Boff!

    My Human slave looks like a lunch lady. I need to customize her! (temporary fix is giving her my old MK XII KHG armour and enabling visuals but we still need customization)

    But a lot of those other issues need fixing too!

    Add this too

    Embassy:
    - Purple Duty Officers there are 3 alright: 2 Security Officers named (Thue) and a Transporter Officer (Verelan), the Research Lab Scientist (Dhael as per wiki) is missing
    - When checking the console where you buy the extra Duty Officer assignments and you have none since you bought them all, the console bugs out so you cant buy anything from it anymore. Yes its a fix if you select on another console other category, but still... it's a trap :)
    - The exchange has two interact buttons, 'Exchange' and 'Exchange not available' (think it's the same on Starbase at ship customization dialog, says, 'not available' bla bla... then opens up the customization interface)

    I would love it if we could use foundry made maps for private matches,

    but this list is made just to consolidate the issues affecting KDF as we tend to be neglected.

    No armor visuals of any kind, no kit visuals either, no customization options for romulan boffs bioneural warhead and any other missiles triggering cooldown without firing missile when target gets out of range or too close in under 1 second of firing, this was kdf issue when bioneural was kdf only, but I felt like adding it here since bioneural is still kdf tech.

    also, the drinks/toasts on starbase have dexcription, if you talk to the guy next to the bowl, he tels you what they do. keep your eyes open, dmg buff, resistance buff, regen buff.

    Since Feds can get that weapon too, I'll leave it as a general bug

    I am seeing this option available on my alien kdf, was unlocked before Reputation. Can anyone else verify its still an issue (assuming you have the paid the costume unlocks and the the ground elite optionals)

    The fireworks console works as long as you haven't already claimed it, I used it last week on one character and yesterday on another, unless the patch 24hours ago broke it, it is working fine for me.

    I did however have an issue with Instalation 18 on my KDF Tactical Alien where when talking to Rina Khev it wouldn't regester and allow me to procede so I dropped the mission. Will try it again at a later date. Funny thing is my Orion Engineer last week did it without an issue.

    The Lobi store costume has errors and like most KDF uniforms a very limiting palette for many parts like the gauntlets.

    Ok,

    Costume/uniform issues.

    Belts and the KDF female Bare top..armored or cutout has many issues where belts clip into the piece. oh.. and the belts ride to high in most cases. They don't even look properly decrative..

    Orion. Bares legs and NO Boot's? NPC's get to wear boots.. why cant our orion females wear boots? (old old old complaint)

    Baldric's..
    No customization options for the baldric? Thats where KDF should be wearing thier fleet patch/insignia, and they should definatly be different from fed style... KDF does not do "Logo's" also, habitually have to watch bust size on avatars or a breast will clip through a balric..especially when using the bare top option for female toons. Not all baldric clip.


    Fleet badge is set to high on a number of the tunic options both KDF and Romulan where the badge is obscured by pauldrons (vet fur especially for KDF, and Vice admiral double fabric drape on the Romulan pauldrons obscures the fleet patch.

    Seems to be a bug at the ships tailor right now. Haven't been able to adjust decorative bits on the ships since before the last patch. I change them and everything become shades of grey. Not all ships. My one toon T'varo refit though can't seem to have shades of color other then grey on the pattern selection.. Not essential to game play.. but detracts from the look and feel... and emersion.

    More coming as i trip back over them..

    lots here, I tried to sumarise and focus on things that either shouldn't require significant additional functionality or are already available elsewhere in the game.

    I'm going to hold off on adding this one as it doesnt seem to be a KDF specific issue.

    The Lobi store costume has errors

    can you be more specific?




    Added other things noticed else where, looks like some issues with costumes are being addressed on tribble, hopefully they will make it to holodeck

    Clipping issues with the sash, lack of customization colour options for gauntlets, boots etc, only have like 1/2 a dozen brown colours to choose from. Also unable to change the colour of the center part of the top. I don't know whether you'll consider that a bug or not, but for me it was a huge let down and feels unfinished to a point that I advise people not to get the uniform.

    clipping issues are noted

    as far as colors, the limited palette seems to indicate that Cryptic wants KDF in subdued, earth-tones, romulans in greater variety of earth tones, and federation can basically wear whatever colors they want.

    really unfair in the color customization but it was likely either an art designer's or CBS choice, unlikely to convince them to give us more options

    I wouldn't mind a red, black or grey colour rather than just the brown. Customisation is the key here, giving people more options means people will stay interested longer and thus in-game and possibly spending money.

    I like the suggestion of making 'Breaking the Planet' cross-faction - it barely ever pops on Fed side either.

    If not cross faction - then a serious incentive to actually play it (or rescale it to 5-10 players)

    added; the faction specific palette limitation is rather silly. After all why would romulan refugees and klingon warriors care about color rules.

    I've played breaking the planet with 6 players before in private matches with no problems, it really doesn't to be scaled

    If a FED Klingon can wear whatever colors he wants, then all Klingons should be able to do the same.

    No a bug, but an issue for the KDF. Teaming for Defera Hards, extremely hard to get teams at times, there needs to be another viable source of Fleet Marks for small KDF fleets, maybe add an equal amount to the EMpire Defense missions, so 60FM and 1440 Dilithium as a reward for those, 4 Empire Defense missions, 4 Defera Hards it would be equal and it might also encourage more to play the KDF as you could run both daily and thus help the population of the faction. I know it goes against the concept of a team mission but any team based mission will have the same issues as Defera.

    Also uniform vests don't work for all species. My Lethean can't use it, but Klingons and Aliens can. I also know Gorn BOFF can use them.

    Oh I like that, I like that a lot. On the topic of that, the KDF Point Defense Console, still shoots orange bolts rather than green. It was updated to be a Disruptor type weapon rather than a phaser but the disruptor bolt visual was never updated.

    It really should be cross-faction teaming for Defera, as it is Task Force Omega.

    They aren't likely to give out a significant amount of fleetmarks for non-teamed pve.

    To help on Defera, try the channel KDFdefera, I set it up after the event became nonscheduled, and other PvE requiring KDF-only teams is acceptable on there too, 267 members normally 20-40 online and ~30 moderators total to self-regulate.

    added line for defera, I really should have remembered that one
    Also uniform vests don't work for all species. My Lethean can't use it, but Klingons and Aliens can. I also know Gorn BOFF can use them.
