Vote on keeping Risa as it is in summer Event

apocalypse2001apocalypse2001 Member Posts: 827 Arc User
Many of you have already noticed that the Risa map in the event is what Risa should be like all the time. Parts of it were shown in TNG and especially Star Trek Enterprise.
There are building. Dance parties, beach parties, special, erm, 'attendants' :D a many many other areas to explore. Keeping it like this will make Star Trek Online even more enjoyable.

So if you want the devs to keep the regular boring Risa map like this, just post a 'yes' below and a comment saying what you liked about it.

Let's keep Risa the way it should be!! Vote now!!

    I agree keep risa, but disable the vendors and missions after the event is over. Or atleast disable the rewards.

    Vote? Wtf? You think Cryptic is running a democracy?

    Also, you apparently didn't read this Dev Post: http://sto-forum.perfectworld.com/showpost.php?p=11041451&postcount=104

    Q: Will this overhauled Risa map remain accessible after the conclusion of the Lohlunat Festival?

    A: Our current plan is to allow this map to remain active after the Lohlunat Festival ends. All of the associated Summer Event activities will stop being available, as will free access for Klingons, but the destination can still be used as a social map by Federation and Fed-Romulan captains.

    * NOTE: This may change, and isn't currently set in stone.

    Support! Especially considering the effort it takes to obtain the higher quality floaters.

    apparently you missed the part where he said "This may change, and isn't currently set in stone."
    So if enough support is shown they will hopefully keep it.

    Maybe my memory is foggy, but I honestly can't remember a time when the STO Devs did something solely because of player support.

    And anyway, aren't "Petitions" like this in violation of some sort of forum guideline? Or am I thinking of a different forum?

    YES!

    I've been hoping they'd fix Risa since my first day in the game. Trash the old map and keep the event map!

    Yes please.

    I was just now doing the Dance party with several other players, as the sun was setting on Risa and fireworks were bursting in the air. In a word, awesome.

    You (Cryptic) guys did a fantastic job on this event addition of Risa and I absolutely hope it sticks around.

    However...
    All of the associated Summer Event activities will stop being available, as will free access for Klingons, but the destination can still be used as a social map by Federation and Fed-Romulan captains.

    I hope you will reconsider both of these. I know this is intended to be a special event for summer, but leaving the stores open and certainly the floaters will give people reason to return to Risa and just have fun earning some simple things.

    And I say Risa, being close to the Klingon border, with people that openly welcome all, is neutral to all galactic conflicts and continues to extend it's hospitality to all who seek it.

    In other words, leave it as a playground for all characters. :)

    I think the resort is great. I hope the resort is open all year long even if the summer event ends.

    Totally want it!

    In fact, would be nice if some of the missions could stay, like the daily race mission, but instead swap out the event reward with the standard fare of 480 dilithium ore. :D

    I love the new Risa. The old one kind of sucks.

    "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."

    I just wanted to post that I love the new map, and I think you guys have really outdone yourselves. I came to this decision after a day of gliding around Risa, having a dance party, looking for some horgh'ans, and then relaxing on the beach at night, as the fireworks lit up the night sky.

    Seriously, well done!

    Yes. Great event and I hope to do it next year! :) It'd be great to swim, but I understand it'd probably be a lot of work to implement.
