    I wonder if there is any chance that we'll get the Lobi Ferengi outfits on Klingon characters... Or Romulan ones. That not eve fed-aligned Romulans can wear them was a surprise to me...​​

    I'm really thinking this idea got dropped. Which is sad, cause I was all excited to add some cool new looks to my KDF.

    Dropped? They haven't even had the time to do the new models yet. Be patient.

    It's still slowly getting updated. Female Honor Guard boots got the same sort of update as the males recently. Should be going live soon if not already.

    Aye, noticed the boots the other day as well as a few other bits and pieces that seem to have been reworked. Big improvement, thanks.

    @crypticjoejing

    When the team gets to the upper half of the Klingon model, would it be possible to make a humanoid head shape and a ridgless forehead options, so we can have Augment style Klingons?

    TOS Klingons, yes! With appropriate mustache option of course.

    And the Sash on over the left shoulder, not the right. :P

    (Seriously, in TOS the sash was over their left shoulder while in TNG it was over the right).


    Almost forgot, be nice if the D7 and K'Tinga models got a little update as well. They never did fix the warp nacelle glow after they took it out 4 years ago. :/

    And Klingon Hair. That's not even starting on hair not even ingame yet.​​

    Norway and Yeager dammit... I still want my Typhoon and Jupiter though.
    JJ Trek The Kelvin Timeline is just Trek and it's fully canon... get over it. But I still prefer TAR.

    Hmm new boots....can you give us the stats on those boots. Will they have a better turn rate than JHSS? Will it have Battle Cloak?
    ...

    Oh... their just ordinary boots and not a new class of KDF Ship?
    Oh... nvm :'(
  • vetteguy904vetteguy904 Member Posts: 3,923 Arc User
    I have not read through all 11 pages, but..
    1. mek'leth and d'tang for fighting
    2. Christopher Plummer's uniform from ST6
    3. soft uniforms. Gorn look dumb in armor. maybe the k'laar vest

  • sorceror01sorceror01 Member Posts: 1,042 Arc User
    I, too, am wondering if this means we'll get actual mek'leth and D'k tahg blades for players. I always thought those would be neat, as they are a sorely missing element in the game for players, despite seeing so many NPC's use them.
    I'm also wondering if the Klingon visual update will also include the Gorn, Nausicaans and Letheans. I remember once upon a time talk of adding unique helmets to the Gorn options in the tailor, and they never really materialized.

  • crypticjoejingcrypticjoejing Member Posts: 211 Cryptic Developer
    another update: the rest of the female Klingon boots got visual updates (similar to the male ones currently in-game). Should be hitting live sooner or later.

    Yes, and some more melee weapons in general. Like an Earth Sword and Fencing... rod, sword?

    I'd totally use those.

    And they would be totally canon too: https://search.yahoo.com/yhs/search?p=Swashbuckler+Sulu&ei=UTF-8&hspart=mozilla&hsimp=yhs-004

    The Star Trek continuity presents Earth as, other than the storyline liberties taken like the Eugenics Wars and presumably the presence of the Star Trek franchise itself, exactly the same as real life Earth. Thus, everything else in Earth history is "canon" unless stated otherwise.

    Yes, that also means that other breeds of canine than beagles exist in the Trekverse.

    Is there ANY news on the borg full body skins yet? Yeah, less bulky Klingons are nice, but this has been a major visual issue for a paid character race since Beta.

    While I'm sure that the team is continuing with their revamps, it would be nice to get updates as to what is going on.
