First Contact Day/Day of Honor/Republic Day coming soon?

First Contact Day should be coming up soon. We didn't get an event last year, presumably due to the Delta Recruitment event at the time. As a result, my new recruits didn't get a chance to particpate. Can we please have First Contact Day again this year? I'm not asking for an update to the event, just that it be turned on for the appropriate amount of time.

    Kinda expect an updated version of the event to promote the T6 flagships. The last time FC day was used to promote the T5s (with full console sets) and the anti-undine gear (only had the rep-torp though). Would make sense if they do something similar now.

    Aye, last year we had nothing - no mention of it at all.
    Two years ago, we got a Training Cruise, if I recall and the two years before, we just got to chat with the crew of the recently launched flagships. I'm pretty sure that was the year we got a free generic Odyssey in the Anniversary event.
    I get the feeling that the three flagships are still undergoing refit just now, so would make sense for them to launch very soon... (Hint, hint, :wink: )

    This defies explanation. We had plenty of publicity with the First Contact Day giveaways. I'd love an explanation as to why nobody simply turned on those missions for a weekend -- I was expecting to see that after today's update. They can't have "forgotten". Were they removed for some reason? I'd love to hear an official explanation.

    Probably because the last ones were specificially tailored to fit into those years current events and they the didn't make a new one. And making a new one for just 1 day probably is a waste of time/money from the devs view.

    Well, considering last zen release were T6 flagships, they could have made event where your admiral/general arrives at shipyards to do inspection of newly made/upgraded flagship just before Na'kuhl assassins/pirates attack. Fun and games for all.
