1) Since the chances of a revamp to the ship interiors system is a longshot, at the very least would it be possible increase the number of players that you can invite to your bridge instance for larger RP gatherings? Could an option be created to remove the BOFFs from the seats on the bridges, so that players could sit in those seats for the purpose or RP?
2) On the topic of Bridges/Interiors/Social zones: It's been said that most of those types of locations aren't used very often because there's very little to do there. Would it be possible to create some small changes that would make them more useful? For example, you could call up an Emergency Medical Hologram in Sickbay to heal your wounds or gain a small buff to resistances or overall hit points. Visit Engineering to repair your ship damages, or complete a mini-game (using one of the existing mini-game UI's already in the game) to temporarily boost certain ship stats? Visit Vulcan and hang out with the priests there for a Buff, or Bajor...etc...
QUESTION FOR JOE JING:
1) Back in July Joe posted a link to some images featuring new TOS Era KDF costumes for all of the various species of that faction.
arcgames.com/en/forums/startrekonline#/discussion/1219810/some-tos-character-renders-for-your-enjoyment/p1
What is the status of those costumes? Were they ever intended to be brought into the game for players to use? If so, is that still in the works? Any ETA on that?
2) Any word on what's holding up the TOS Gorn options that have been unavailable since Agents of Yesterday launched?
Also, STO is really quite beautiful on most maps keep up the good work.
Q: Is it even possible for older reputation armor sets (e.g. MACO, Counter Command) to be folded into the more general uniform options to be mix-and-matched with other parts like new Reputation armors can be? If it is possible, how many targs/goats/etc. do I have to sacrifice to get those assets into the more flexible mode?
Q: Who's idea was it for the sunbaked 'cracked mud' texture seen in the 31c ships and TDI armor?
Q: What would you like to add or change in Federation environments to make them more "Terran Empire"?
Q: Which lobi store costume set do you think people should take a closer look at because it's really cool?
Cool .
And yes, "Nike 9"
And extra long gloves in the show
"Bridge missions"!!
If this was the last interview in episode 235 - it was from the setup of Maria Rosseau and Stephen Ricossa.
Things did improve as it went on.
Yeah, it was from that one. Cool, thanks for the update. The content was good and interesting. The static just eventually drove me crazy.
Yeah, made my headache worse - I tried to clean it up as much as possible but couldn't do much with it
