edited June 2015 in Galactic News Network [PC]
With the Summer Festival on Risa right around the corner, Captains can expect a whole new set of rewards to celebrate the summer with! From Aloha shirts, to the insanely-adorable Caracal, we have tons of fun in store for Captains this Thursday!

Seriously. The Caracal is frackin' adorable.

    The Caracals look like something out of neverwinter. As a weather nut, I approve of the hurricane generator. I must have the targ powerboard.

    Awesome. :)
    My old (and now mostly obsolete) exploration suggestions thread. Give it a read. :)

    Was hoping it would look a little more like the real world caracal, but ah well.

    Also, the next eeveelution confirmed.

    The picture of the people with washboard stomaches do not represent me.
    Should I start posting again after all this time?

    For the same insane prices of last year with the drip of favors that makes it a 24/7 grind?

    No thanks.
    This.

    Winter Event is great thanks to duty officer assignments that reward Winter Ornaments. There are no duty officer assignments on Risa and all the activities reward way too little Favors.

    As such, I won't even bother with the Risa-only outfits, or the powerboards. It's just a waste of time and money.

    Not to mention, I can't see myself spending too much time on Risa if the FPS loss issue isn't going to be addressed soon...

    Board shorts? Check.

    New kit modules? Including a weather generator? Check.

    You also get a bonus point for putting Tom Selleck from Magnum P.I. in the Dev Blog.
    Additionally, as a tribute to the late Mr. Spock, Risa has released a Live Long and Prosper Powerboard. Available to all races, the Live Long and Prosper Powerboard is Risa’s way of saying thanks to one of the greatest men ever to serve in Starfleet.

    Pretty sure that powerboard was there last year as a decoration, it just wasn't attainable. Unless this is a completely different powerboard.

    I remember because I was annoyed I couldn't get it then. So, thanks for releasing it this year. Too bad it took Leonard Nimoy dying for it to happen. If I had the choice I'd rather you keep the powerboard as a decoration and give us back Leonard Nimoy.

    Oh dear Lord! Andoria doesn't believe in manscaping! :eek::D:D

    The costume options do look interesting. Does this mean they'll be available in open and closed shirt options?

    No thanks.

    I do have to agree with that. I much prefer the winter event because getting event currency is much easier, thus more fun.

    It gets very tedious trying to buy outfits and floaters and what not for numerous toons at such high prices when your only viable sources are horga'hn hunt and dance party on repeat. Even doing the same few things during Winter event, mixed in with the odd ginger bread colony queued mission or last years addition of the snow Borg mission it seems much more fun to get the rewards and much less of a dull repetitive ache. Plus the winter event stuff costs less and you can wear all of that clothing anywhere you want.
    Join date is wrong, I've actually been around since STO Beta.
    True alters don't have a "main". Account wide unlocks for all unique event rewards!!

    The first thing that comes to mind is the Pokemon Eevee when looking at those Caracals! That is the only reason I'm gonna get one! XD

    Also, "Hurricane Generator". LMAO!

    I hope an NPC Holo-Rubin Carter shows up and punches all the enemies in the face.

    These rewards are excellent, at least what I can see of them.

    But looking at the art of the article... when did we get the option for chest hair?

    People who wanted it always had the option...by rolling a cat and buying the shorts...

    We really need to be able to wear the Hawaiian shirts on missions. So we can be M'gnum, Space PI, and fight Space Crime.

    None of the summer stuff has worked off Risa, so it is doubtful!

    Or Archer Vice. They had a missed opportunity to combine it with the Pilot Ships.
