    I've already got this one, but thanks for giving it away! I'm sure there's a lot of folks who don't have it and will appreciate it. See you for tomorrow's giveaway!

    I thought there was going to be something available for both factions.

    So nothing for the Klingons today?

    I was hoping it would at least be items not readily available on the exchange for barely anything already.

    "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."

    Ok for those of us who are Romulan and Klingons this is pretty much snub. We get squat.

    I feel cheated. Sure its free and all but I still feel cheated.

    Me too. Still, at least now I don't have to spend EC to buy new sets should I ever create another character...

    It'll probably alternate. Five Days, so it'll be Monday = Fed, Tuesday = KDF, Wednesday = Fed, Thursday = KDF & Friday = FED (and possibly KDF).

    FEDs have more content either way.

    PS: I called this (CatPhone chat) like... two/three minutes before it went live. ;)

    I have this since day 1...and my current subscription time is 1305 days. Almost every other costume pack would be fine..and you choose the one which came with the boxed game editions... :confused:

    And again KDF (and The Romulans on a side note) got rooted out...

    You know, if you going to pull this off, do it right, or don't do it at all..
    But given te fact that the KDF has close to 0 Costume or vanity options, the only thing you could put on sale would be the ships... and i doubt this will ever happen, so, i see now why the KDF (and Romulans) is more or less excluded from this.

    As I mentioned in my posts in the main thread (click here to see them all), on the days that we are giving away ships (3, Wednesday through Friday), there will be a Fed and KDF ship to claim -- on the days that are not ships (today and tomorrow), it will be Federation only.

    No Romulan items will be given away as they are less than 3 months old.

    Cheers,

    I'm sure the impression they gave was that both factions would get something. I remember Brandon mentioning something of the sort. Maybe it was just the ships.

    Seems all Cryptic if you ask me.

    I feared it was the open-jacked uniforms I had unlocked a week ago. Glad it's something I didn't have.

    Tomorrow I might not be so lucky.

    Most of what's in the C-Store (account unlockable) that can be given away is tied to one faction or another.

    So ... ::: shrugs ::: ... Keep the freebies coming.

    And yes ... I've had this one for a long time.

    Just claimed it. Wasn't one of the ones I was hoping for, but thank you, I was eventually going to get it, this saved me a "down the road" expenditure of zen. (*Bows*)

    Already got it, but thanks for giving it away to whose that haven't! :)

    Let the speculation over tomorrow giveaway commence/continue. :p


    Edit; If you are not seeing it available in the appearance tab, you most likely already have it. The DS9 uniform was part of some pre-order bundles. If you obtained it this way, it may be listed under Legacy Unlocks.

    Oh dear.

    There's been plenty of pre information about this.

    Right from the outset it's been said no Romulan gear. Too new, still making money.

    Surely thats fair enough.

    And as for the Klingons, their costume day is tomorrow. Nothing for the Feds.

    Again, well flagged up in advance.

    As for today, yay.....a costume pack I don't have.

    However, as I've already bought the one costume pack the Klingons have, tomorrow I'll get nothing.

    But so what?

    All of this is free. Wouldn't matter if they were just giving away zen store tribbles all week.

    It's free stuff.

    While i must applaud the giving away things, giving away a DS9 shirt is abit one sided...

    And in your posts earlier, i do not recall anything about the freebies being fed only, EXCEPT ships .... but that must be my fairness kicking in there

    Academy outfit would probably have been more fitting if giving away clothes, since those are available to both factions at least.

    ^^This!^^ - BranFlakes already said that it will be one day Fed, the other KDF. And for friday I guess 2 ships, one for Feds and one for KDF.

    And yeah, you called it! lol :D I'm glad you were right.

    EDIT: Totally ninja'd by BranFlakes!
