What's your big fear about Delta Rising?

Putting aside the catastrophic topic of T5 vs T5-U vs T6 vs Non-Starfleet looking ships...
What is your biggest fear about the upcoming expansion?
My biggest fear is:
We'll get to the Delta Quadrant. There will be about 5-8 nice missions in a story arc (Like Wasteland, Breen Invasion, etc.) and then we'll be done, except for raids.
I guess my fear is not truly being able to "explore" the Delta Quadrant and make it a real destination to park a ship and crew for a year or what have you.
So, what is your big fear?

And lack of story missions.
Both have more or less been confirmed so...
when has the lack of story missions been confirmed? where is that quote? they said the expansion is equal in size to LOR and that they are now focusing on story missions. so even if some are battlezones and queues there should still be substantial story.
And I don't even like Matzo-balls.

Story missions wont be playable until DR goes live on holodeck.
As for fear, I have none.
See what I did there?
Then she killed it. Classic Janeway.

Its not that the whole game is always this way. They've shown flashes of brilliance and beauty from time to time. I think of missions like Mind Games or Cold Comfort or Temporal Ambassador, or the seasonal events (Risa is just such a wonderful environment), are some of my favorites and get so immersive. Or The 2800 series, where yes there is lots of combat, but its combat with purpose and direction to give it an epic feel rather than the usual "fly around this system, destroy 5 clusters of mobs.' Less gamification more storytelling.
I just hope for some good story advancement right now and a little more light on the Iconians after that display from the last mission we had. I still will be surprised if we get to take a shot at one within a year from now though.

- Poor rewards combined with a gutting of existing game play rewards. I think it is pretty clear that the payout of exisiting borg stfs are much higher than Cryptic wants especially when you consider just how rewarding most of the recently released content is.
- Fleet T6. Six months after upgrading existing ships to T5-FU quality and buying a few T6 ships having that extra $5 module if you want to keep your T6 as top tier combined with the true death of T5.
Time will tell. I thinks at least one will be correct.
Cryptic is absolutely horrible at systems design (original DOFF system nothwithstanding) so, as usual, it's all about seeing if their changes are tolerable enough to continue playing or not.
The Defiant Class , Galaxy class, and Sovereign class ships are looking mighty cartoony next to the Ambassador, and soon to be retextured Intrepid.
This, actually.
I don't expect much from Cryptic's story writing or the content, everything been there, canon has been butchered by the very principles of the game, so what, what can happen.
But the lack of treatment the canon visuals in this game get is worrying me. I don't care wether the ships will be "competetive" or what have you, but I'd like for them to finally revamp those skins and models, make them look good. That would make me happier.

That it won't be in a stable, playable state(as not having horrible bugs like bridge seats wipe every zone transition, etc.) for several months after release.
Legacy of Romulus had tribble testing for 3 or so odd months and it still had many issues that took a good while to hammer out. Delta Rising.. (considering it's getting even less testers due to the gold member restriction) is getting even less public/mass testing in. Furthermore, a little birdy told me they've been so feverishly trying to play catch up with what was promised that one of the coders actually fell asleep at their computer - mid-line.
That & no proper ground combat missions.

LMAO .....as a budding PvPer (read: starting progress out of noob stage) i can tell you that PvP is very much a secondary concern, these intel ablities are certainly a good start though.
