New bridge pack idea

I know we can never have enough bridge packs, so here are a couple:

- The Motion Picture Bridge pack. Have it complete with engine room, crew quarters, etc.
- Wrath of Khan Bridge pack. Yet another Enterprise-style redesign, again complete.
- Enterprise-A pack. The bridge is primarily different, but the rest of the ship was modernized.

Also, a lot of our Bridge packs would be better completed. Can't just have a bridge y'know.
Travel Power/Costume suggestions.

Example of Comet Flight: Here.

      Actually, the TNG show pack is available, but the Motion pictures are not.

      Thankfully. It won't happen. The bridges and ship interiors are the least used things in the game. Hence why they don't bother with making any more.

      Would like to see a full scimitar Interior for romulan faction a few more bridge styles and a trophy room being added for romulan faction. Fact is they don't even need to program or add all those npcs, they could make rp bridges, that are empty of bridge officers but they make it so others can use the chairs the npcs are using in rp. I do think those types of interiors and bridges would sell they could also give us the means to build our own custom interior. Fact is I do think they need invest in this. Also more outfits, for romulan and kdf faction. More playable speices. Like Aenar and carrdassions For Fed and Romulan faction.

      Make player ship interiors social zones, somewhere like the mess hall complete with mini games if you want to invite friends over.

        Its the way they design them, they design them to have all these npcs taking up the seats on the bridge. Rpers would be the ones to buy the bridges if they cleared out a lot of the npcs and made it optional for your bridge officers to be sitting in them. Now they could make money off the bridges. All they really need to do is make them like rp interiors and they would sell. Like for example they can use the one map that was used in that one romulan mission hakeavs borg/romulan hybrid interior and add that as a bridge design while adding in the trophy room and bedroom. bridge officer assigments by computer and the database computer used in certain missions. Its not really complicated using interiors they have as maps in game. They can use in game ship maps as interiors. They already have them made all they would need to do is port them to be a bridge format and add the coding to them.

        They could do this as well, they do need to be social zones rp zones. Now if they designed them where there is not npcs cluttering and taking chairs on the bridge by making those npcs optional by coding them to disapear if you hit a toggle thing on the bridge making them open for rp then I think the level for ship rp will be so much better.

        The Aenar would be just another Federation race.

        The Cardassians, well, they would just end up being like the Romulans. Cardassian Union would join the Feds. True Way would be the KDF.

        As far as RP bridges. While it's a good idea. One that could probably be built in the foundry, though it would have a 5 player limit.

        The costume idea would probably be the best go to here.

        I do agree they need to finish out the Romulan ship interiors. Especially with trophy racks. Both Rom and KDF could use some sit nodes.

        But as far as customizable ship interiors. This isn't likely to happen. More and more people would need to start using the interiors for them to think about it. Right now, only about 15%(this is a guess) of the player base actually use their bridge or ship interior. Which is why Cryptic hasn't made any more, not enough people use them.

        Yeah they need to give Romulans all the Tal Shiar outfits and rankings and capes. They can add Aenar as a romulan republic race they don't have to make it federation. We know the romulans do have ties to the aenar since one was working with them in the past even though he was tricked into it. It would make sense for them to be a republic race.

        `a proper 23c t'liss interior and 23c shuttle interior would be good...and i'm betteing that some of the assets for the 23c fed shuttle interior already exist from the 1st AoY mission. if they can do a crashed shuttle, it can't be too hard to make a non-crashed version.

        I haven't seen any of these in the foundry. Though there are some TOS things in there. Like the one ship interior you run through. One could build a TOS bridge and interior. All that is there. But it comes with a limit of 5 players per map. Well for the Federation any how. The KDF and Roms are still missing assets to be able to do it.

        true, though it is widely out of proportion, does not include the actual engineering section or the original "10 forward".
        They did it for the voyager pack in great detail and implemented it into a few episodes. That is probably why we don't see it for TNG...yet.

        What about a kelvin timeline interior? The bridge is so great, could imagine them doing an interior for it. :smile:

        This.

        Unless they've get some idea to use it for something else like the voyager stuff it just won't happen. Making interiors for the sake of making interiors has long been dead and honestly it's really not a big thing. Unless one enjoys to run in circles they're pretty pointless. :|

        Considering the Next Generation's 30th anniversary is next year, I'm sure we'll see some TNG love.

        Kelvin Bridge pack - MORE LENS FLARES! I don't have much interest in the kelvin ships but I would buy a kelvin bridge pack for my prime ships.

        Ship interiors deserve attention, and the RP community can put the lie to the "no one ever uses them" fallacy.

        "He shall be my finest warrior, this generic man who was forced upon me.
        Like a badass I shall make him look, and in the furnace of war I shall forge him.
        he shall be of iron will and steely sinew.
        In great armour I shall clad him and with the mightiest weapons he shall be armed.
        He will be untouched by plague or disease; no sickness shall blight him.
        He shall have such tactics, strategies and machines that no foe will best him in battle.
        He is my answer to cryptic logic, he is the Defender of my Romulan Crew.
        He is Tovan Khev... and he shall know no fear."
