What races would you like to see more of?

similonsimilon Member Posts: 0 Arc User
Many of us have favourite races that we'd like to see more of, in various capacities.
Whether these be major species like Vulcans, who just don't seem to be around or Lesser species like Boslic, you would like to be around.
The chances of some of these ever happening are rather slim, but lets toss logic aside and have a bit of fun!

Personally, I'd like Boslic Bridge Officers.

I'd also like to kill more ferengi, and have some nice vulcan ships.

What races would you like to see, and in what capacity?

    Efrosian! As per my avatar pic. :)
    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.

    I'd like to see the Andorians get a good storyline, and bring Andoria into play more.

    Shran FTW.

    what do you think Pinkskins ?

    Hehe - I loved the Andorians in Enterprise.
    Yes, they were a bit paranoid but they were so damn funny!

    More KDF races...including making females for the ones who don't have them. I mean they were able to fill in a bunch of Federation females that were never seen on screen and they did the same for Remans...why can't Nausicaan, Lethean, or even Gorn get females?

    I agree. There should be a rule that if a race has been in a show as part of the crew they would automatically be in the game. Romulans also need Suliban to give them more choices.

    I think the next faction(s) should be Vulcans aligned with the Federation and Cardassians alinged with the KDF instead of always forcing each new faction to choose between the two. The Vulcan faction would add vulcan ships and a Vulcan story line.

    I would love anything featuring Suliban - especially is it gave us boffs, or captains :P

    If they ever do add them, I hope you can make their faces puff up! :D

    Just remembered: I'd also love Kriosians' - in any capacity. (preferably boff/captain)

    That said, if they add more playable species, I'll need to make more characters... I already have too many :S

    Xindi AQUATICS!!

    Denobulans!

    Sulibans!

    More Tholian story content ....


    and to finish off with:

    Perhaps the Breen (with their badass super awesome disabling weapon version 2.0)
    Hopefully I'll come back from my break; this break is fun; I play intellectual games.

    I hope STO get's better ...

    Yeah, I mean - we have Pakleds !?!:confused: for the Federation, but we don't have the Denobulans - an actual member of the UFP and one of the oldest ones, too.

    Phlox was really one of the most remarkable chars. in Star Trek, together with Jean-Luc Picard and Elim Garak he's in my top 3 Trek chars. of all time.

    I think the next faction(s) should be Vulcans aligned with the Federation and Cardassians alinged with the KDF instead of always forcing each new faction to choose between the two. The Vulcan faction would add vulcan ships and a Vulcan story line.

    Well, can't say that I see this happening as the Vulcans can't be a faction, they're already a founding member of the United Federation of Planets.
    And I'd rather have Cardassians as a stand alone, even if it means they need to ally with Fed & KDF like the Romulans. Putting them just on one side would make them a vassal state and I don't think that does Cardassians justice.

    Out of my Top 3 species in Trek, I only have one availible in STO. :(
    Denobulans & Cardassians now, are you listening Cryptic!? ;)

    That would be an awesome mechanic as a nod to ENT. and fun to see in game. Maybe it can confuse or 'freeze' the oponnent for a short period of time as a Denobulan special ability. :D

    I think we ought to play a mission were we make allies with ALL the Xindi,

    and once we have done that, you have purchasbale Xindi TO PLAY ON THE FED SIDE!

    I've been patiently waiting for a Cardassian faction (or more likely, faction featuring cardassians). I even have my characters planned out. Specifically a Female Cardassian called "Mi`arm". Just for when it becomes a Legate. ;)

    They already have them... Blue, Purple, Orange, etc.

    Gotta say, love the idea of a Xindi arc. It's awesome. Maybe uniting the races again as a FE series where you earn a choice of BOFF, an item set maybe (although "giving" us a ship is unlikely... it'll end up in the Xindi Lockbox "Available whilst the FE is running"). Give me my hairy arboreal already.

    Also agreed that Denobulans need introducing. I'd almost say to drop Pakleds (except that some players will have rolled them and like them) due to being the only race with a NEGATIVE racial trait. WTF, Cryptic? Either have every race with a negative to balance the positives (just look at D&D races for examples... Half-Orc strong, not so charismatic) or have no negatives at all.

    That said, I want to play a DOSI.

    Not necessarily see more of, but I would love to have these races added, or at the least their parts show up in the alien generator:

    Coridan
    Their world was once a major power, but by the time of TOS had been exploited by alien influences. In DS9 they were attacked by the dominion. Might make for a someone negative outlook on aliens. Plus they look cool.


    Farians
    I want to go to Fairus prime. They are an independent well developed world. I would love to see a cityscape adventure zone, where the goal of the missions was to curry favor with the Farians. Klingon and Federation players could attempt to increase their score or sabatoge the score of the other side by doing missions, the higher a groups score the better stores would open up on the planet.

    The Swarm
    They're just cool....

    Android Boffs are in the game as a Vet Reward for those who Subscribe.
    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.
