    You should really look into the new FE...
    TOIVA, Toi Vaxx, Toia Vix, Toveg, T'vritha, To Vrax: Bring in the Allegiance class.
    Toi'Va, Ti'vath, Toivia, Ty'Vris, Tia Vex, Toi'Virth: Add Tier 6 KDF Carrier and Raider.
    Tae'Va, T'Vaya, To'Var, Tevra, T'Vira, To'Vrak: Give us Asylums for Romulans.

    Don't make ARC mandatory! Keep it optional only!

    The only problem I have with the whole thing is the fact that we never got to see any reconstruction. There should've been an aftermath mission, a cinematic that plays after the mission showing the reconstruction, maybe a quick scene of your ship in a drydock receiving repairs from the battle with a panning shot of ESD being reassembled or reconstructed.

    Nothing make me more happy than seeing ESD in flames... except a new KDF ship.
    I use to do 100K DPS, but then I took an arrow to the knee.

    That would have been nice. We end the mission, get to Sol and tadaa! The ESD is the same as it ever was (from the exterior).

    Hmm, maybe a short cutscene at the end of Surface Tension (if only for FED and FED/ROM chars, perhaps) would suffice. Showing how we're getting ready to tackle the Undine, recontructing ESD, repairing, updating ships.

    That's implying Starfleet Engineer Corps rebuilt it, which isn't confirmed. For all we know, Q could have taken pity of us and our poor broken toy.

    I can make different sizes, but we can only upload those 4 standard sizes to the ArcGames server. (Don't look at me I didn't code it)

    Perhaps some of you would like us to post links to other sizes in this thread?

    As soon as I get that rat's pink little furry behind you so kindly mentioned argent007 :)

    So what sizes would you all like to request?

    So far we have a request for 1920x1080...

    Myself and a few others in the Mac group use the 1280 x 800. I know it's small but standard on a lot of Macs.

    My big monitor is 1600x900 with the 16:9 ratio. Getting screenshots from you guys in that size is hit or miss although I have a few.

    The new featured episode surface tension is in my opinion the best episode in game by far. It actually felt like a real Star Trek episode I would have enjoyed had I seen it on tv or the movie screen

    Play it while you ca still get the free toys and while it is still accessible to people below level 50

    I think it's completely reasonable that the Enterprise isn't the only Connie that was refit. This just means that the U.S.S. Constitution was too. =D

    I agree with another poster in that this was a missed opportunity to nicely introduce the new ESD interior. Just a small cutscene or filler mission focusing on the rebuilding and opening of the new section that we now explore. Otherwise it isn't explained in the game at all why we are running around this shiny new section of the station instead of a repaired version of the old one.

    Could be solved with a nice little coda mission that just includes a report to ESD and a cutscene that plays when entering the system.

    The mission would unlock after the FE and would close the circle nicely.

    I still think the degree of destruction is ridiculous. This station would have to be scrapped entirely. But STO and realism don't have much in common in the first place so I guess that's ok. ;)

    I agree, theres no way a Caitian could be bested so easily during this invasion.

    CatStar had to deal some payback for this outrage!

    In first place, those are not wallpapers. The "devs" dont have a clue what the "wallpaper" word mean. And an image of ridiculous resolutions cant be considered as a wallpaper. But since everybody is "ok", (i guess everybody plays in 10 years old screen computers) there is nothing we can do lol. 720p is the minimum resolution a wallpaper should have. But those images are not even that "big" lol, most of em are even smaller. So, i only see 2 or 3 real wallpapers in the media gallery. The rest are just small images.

    It's a media gallery, not a wallpaper gallery. It just happens to have some wallpapers in it.
