Not sure what to make of all this, don't like the idea of making a character who is stuck in the 23rd century hope this isn't what their planning.
I'd really hope they include a TOS "pocket universe" as I find it silly to have TOS ships and uniforms, but fight Borg, Jem'Hadar or Voth in (post-)TNG ships all the time...

Ehh, ill wait and see whats up with this "expansion", the complete lack of anything KDF or ROM bodes real ill wind to me for the game in general.
Winding down a dead end road to me.
There is precedent for this sort of action. LoR also had a 'complete lack of anything KDF or Fed' in its bundles, and outside of a few shared costumes, the 25th-century Starfleet faction is getting no more than the KDF or Republic.
While i certainly agree with your statement here, what exactly is a kdf or rommy cpt going to do in this update do you think.?
I have 4 fed chars, and one fed aligned rommy, i am not disappointed with the news where they are concerned.
I do not however wish to start another character at all "if" that will be required anyway, and i am left scratching my head as to what my kdf engineer and rommy tac are going to do lol.
Creating a new character will definitely be necessary to be in the new faction (or be a Temporal Recruit). As for non-TOS characters, it seems there's a new reputation and a new story arc, not unlike the Tholian reputation and Nimbus arc from LoR.
Ehh, my guess is i wont be doing this, sounds like a pitch for people to buy char slots as well, wouldn't matter for me anyway as i have ton of them free now.
I might change my mind, never know, point is "what" content gets released for people who do not start a new char. and dont join this new faction.
Alright folks, official announcement is a go. Closing this.
