Contains spoilers for "A Step Between Stars"!
So it's fairly obvious after the fight with the Undine in the Delta Quadrant during the events of "A Step Between Stars" that S9 will be Delta Quadrant content. This notion is only reinforced by the presence of the Hirogen Lock Box. But there are some other features overdue that I think we'll be seeing when the next season rolls around. That said, here's what I think we'll be seeing next season:
- More content in the Delta Quadrant. I think it's safe to say that this is the most obvious aspect.
- Undine will likely have a large role, and it's looking like we'll be seeing some Hirogen as well. That said, I'm pretty sure we'll still be dealing with the Voth.
- In light of the ending (or lack thereof) of A Step Between Stars, I think we'll see tensions rise between the three f(r)actions that make up Joint Command, possibly including some missions involving combat between them.
- If they aren't already in the game by then, I anticipate seeing full implementation of Raider Flanking, Secondary Deflectors, and saving ship loadouts.
- Fixing KDF costume bugs. (More a wish than an actual expectation.)
That's all I can think of for now; might add more later.
For personal reasons, I've left Star Trek Online.
