I wonder What they are going to add/improve this year at Winter Wonder. I hope they add something like a sled race or a ski hill or something that q will turn you into an epohh for an event call it Life of an epoah. Mabey they will add something that is like team pvp exept it is a battle where 1 team are evil snowmen and the other are regular players with there snow wepeons. Or they might add an event that is actually a snowball fight between players where they do not use there guns but those hand held snowballs. They might also add an ice scating race where you use frosted boots to race. What do you guys think or suggest they may add.

    New stuff... let's see...

    Blue, Orange and Yellow Jackets.

    Breen Carrier [T6]

    An Undine giving you some sneaky fluidic space 100% XP boost for those struggling to hit 60.

    and...

    A scarf.

    Not true. 2012, the first winter wonderland I played, they added the animated snowman attacks and the epohh pvp race, and made it so that your grand prize for the event was a Breen Chel Grett Warship.

    In 2013, they added more snowball weapons, a pie eating contest and the Gingerbread version of the colony invasion queue. They also let us grab the Chel Grett along side the Plesh Brek Heavy Raider for those of us who didn't get it the first time on our other characters.

    To be honest, I don't know what new event will be launched this year, but we know that they are applying the account wide discount to the previous 2 ships, which means that the ships will be available for obtaining once more, in addition to the newest ship.

    -A new ship. The Breen carrier would seem logical I guess.
    -Some new snow guns that make the old ones obsolete again.
    -New color versions of the nanopulse weapons. I'm guessing orange with DR.
    -Some clothes (or recolors of the old ones). They will probably be ruined by making them map-locked. :mad:

    -Maybe a new mission or activity of some kind. Could be anything.

    Probably some other stuff, but those are the easiest to guess.

    The second set of snow guns had a shorter range than the first, so I wouldn't say they made them obsolete. Sure, Snowblower has absurd DPS in an AoE at short range, but it's only good up close.

    I'm hoping for a sniper rifle. We have Full auto, blast assault, dual pistols, a flamethrower variant, and a shotgun/grenade launcher. Also there was that snow mortar device that was kinda like an eng kit, but not really. Maybe new pseudo kits? I mentioned a hot-chocolate dispenser(healing device) a while ago. Maybe giant snowball grenades?

    -The snowball guns are already Gold quality, so upgrading is pointless.
    -Locking winter jackets to a map that only exists for a little over a month all year makes no sense, especially when the older jackets are open use everywhere.

    -New Nanopulse weapons. Predicted color: Orange. Would like a shot at blue since I JUST missed those by a few days, but not likely to happen.
    -Possibly some new snow guns. Prediction: Sniper Rifle, Compression Pistol, Gumdrop Minigun.
    -New Winter Jacket colors.
    -Sarr Theln Carrier [T6]
    -Whatever new stuff that Cryptic comes up with.

    I figure there will be some new use for snow guns, they've added one each year. Originally all you could do with snowballs was throwing them at other players. then they added the Snowman Overlord, then the next year the gingerbread village. What's next? I'm very curious to know.

    I hope that they bring back the two ships from last year. I missed out on the cruiser because they didn't have the discount back then. I know it isn't as good as the T6 cruisers, but I just want it for collecting. Plus I have new characters, and would like the Breen Raider on them for collecting also.

    The new T6 carrier might be good. I just hope that if that is what the ship is, it will have pets with the hull strength from before the last Nerf to them. That will be a good incentive to try for it, if not for collections sake.

    I do hope that they start Monday giving all info on what will be available, and not wait till after the event is live before telling us what we can already see in the event. Lol. It is funny when they do that.

    I have been looking forward to this event the whole year, and can't wait to play in the winter wonderland. It was fun last year, and will be just as good this year too.

    quite correct and in the summer event this year they added the powerboard race and updated the map with the shopping promenade.
    it will be great if they add extra stuff but even if the event is the same as last year the new ship alone will make it worth its weight in zen.
    i will see you all there.

    When I think about everything we've been through together,

    maybe it's not the destination that matters, maybe it's the journey,

     and if that journey takes a little longer,

    so we can do something we all believe in,

     I can't think of any place I'd rather be or any people I'd rather be with.

    Yay. Another year of getting screwed on the epohh race because the devs are too lazy to come up with a proper placing/reward system.

    FFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFF... slid past it again... last place racer takes first.

    I don't even bother trying to do good in that, I just do it several times instead. (I don't even bother running.) However, the horrible, horrible race placing system is definitely a bother.

    The race against the NPC however, is so laughably easy that the only people that can't do it are the ones that don't understand that the definition of insanity is doing the same thing over and over again, and expecting different results. :rolleyes:

    I dont look forward to the grindy aspect of it (which is in all fairness more bearable then in other parts of the game), but i do look forward to the whole event & experience. Because you just said it: IT IS FUN!

    In retrospective, the most fun i had this year in STO was during new Cryptic Story & Player Foundry Missions, the Winter & Summer Event, and celebrations like the STO anniversary & the recent re-opening of Club 47. Basically events with less artificial psychological pressure and more fun.

    And canon things like the "Intrepid Interior" add A LOT to a fun Trekkie experience for me.

    Err, sorry. But let's just say i'm very nervous now. I hope they didn't TRIBBLE up something that worked fine before. (The only thing thing I wouldn't mind them TRIBBLE up would be the voice over volume and repeating cycles, those sure weren't 'working fine' before. Looking at you, chef!)
    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.

    WW is really a nice way to work your way through the holidays. The in-game grind for the ship is worth doing, and I still believe the Chel Gret is the best free ship in the game. The Sar Thein looks interesting.

    Which is why I predict the following: While the discounts will remain for the old ships, a new currency will be revealed for the new Carrier. The old currency - '8x10 Glossy's for Q will still work on the old ships, but the new one will be something new - and much harder to obtain.

    'Cause it wouldn't be Christmas without the Cryptic Grinch.
