Compared to all the other seasons, we normally get.
1. At least 1 new fleet ship
2. New duty officer missions.
3. Some type of new duty officers with new powers. I know its not cannon but to follow tradition we should have got a set of Undine duty officers.
4. When completeing the reputation hub after each teir theres usually a cut scene to help progress the story.
5. A completely new piece of space or ground/space to explore.
6. A new 3 ship set.
Theres probably alot more I'm forgetting, So why didn't cryptic at least give us what the other seasons did. Did they run out of money. Did everyone quit. Does anyone know? In the last few podcasts Branflakes (before he left) said that STO had the best year it had ever had. it seems to me if their revenue went up they would improve their game to get more players. Why is there logic so back asswards. Or do they plan to release a Mega update with 9.5. I wish a dev would clear some of this up. Explain to us what in the hell is going on. We deserve at least that.
(I know, I know, they dont have to say anything cause they own the game and we don't). But dammit I want answers don't you!!
3. New types of duty officers are added when new packs are added. These aren't usually released with a Season launch.
4. Only Romulan and Dyson actually have cutscenes. Omega and Nukara never have any missions or cutscenes unlocked by getting to a Tier.
5. Only Season 2, Season 7, and Season 8 have new space to explore. Only Season 7, LoR, and Season 8 have new ground areas to explore. Season 9 has the Undine Battlezone.
6. 3 Ship sets are not usually released with a season launch.
Unlike other MMOs, STO releases content when it is ready to be released if they can. Season 9 has just started and there will be lots of patches between now and Season 10 or Expansion 2. After all, it is called a Season which means a period of time not one patch.
No new Doffs in the Undine lockbox. Could be the new Doffs are coming out with a new Duty Officer pack that will replace the Romulan Survivor one (it is coming on a year since that was released). Could the Xindi be coming in full force?

At least I don't have to grind another F*&^ing fleet holding.
Pretty artwork though.

Yes, thanks for that Cryptic. :cool: ******n if only that Spire could be finished....
Personally from what I've seen most of the work was done for the 9.5 update, Season 10, or the expansion.
