    all the parts that haven't already been added...even the horrible klingork faces, because i know someone out there actually LIKES them​​

    Gotta agree with what someone said on your twitter post:



    I mean its beyond ridiculous that you would add uniforms to the game but not even have the correct colors. You can't even make a true white like the medics in the show. WTH?

    that's because the engine doesn't support true white any more than it supports true back​​

    Look man. If you want to defend that game, ok. but don't say things that are just not true:

    I know that different textures take colors different. But the point is the textures they used for the Discovery uniforms do NOT take the colors in a way that matches the show. That is the fault of whoever designed those uniforms and textures, not the game's engine.

    I'd rather see more of the non-ST:D stuff which hasn't been added to the game yet first, and certain T1 and T5 ships to finally get T6 treatment.

    that isn't true white - true white is 255, 255, 255 - numbers the engine cannot support, just as they can't support 0, 0, 0 as true black; anything using that number code would be rendered invisible, not black​​

    Listen: you aren't wrong about the game engine rendering colors. But you weren't making that statement in a vacuum. You were responding to someone saying the discovery uniforms don't look correct. And in response to that topic, your response IS wrong, because the game engine color issue has nothing to do with this. As the pics posted above show, it IS possible to get the correct "white" that matches the discovery medical uniforms with other clothing pieces. That means the dev who designed the discovery uniforms used a texture that does not allow the uniform to be colored correct (compared to the show). So your commentary about the game engine color rendering IS wrong as a response to this issue.

      Well first off, I want a "Mycelium-Warhead Photon Torpedo Launcher Mk XIV!"
      Seriously the whole idea of those space magic spores being loaded into photon torpedo warheads to give them extra oomph is practically crying out to be made into a new EPG based torpedo for us Science captains! Would go very nicely with our Crossfields.

      And we absolutely need proper Bridges for the Crossfield, Walker and Sarcophagus ships, as has been the gold standard for lockbox/lobi ships for most of their existence.

      Would also love to see the Orion outpost from the finale as a social zone on Qo'nos, as well as an overall expansion of traditional MMO fetch/kill quests to discover on different worlds and social zones. Something that a lot of can be added to the game and flesh out the game world to make it feel a bit more alive, and yet not require as much development time as elaborate Episodes with cutscenes.(I know, maybe I went off on a tangent, but I'm trying to justify the addition of a new social zone here!!!)

      Yes to the Orion quarter on Qo'nos as a social zone (or Ter'jas Mor the new Orion home world).

      The Empress's Palace Starship.

      Mirror Universe Walker and Discovery classes.

      I'd love to get the Tardigrade species in the game as part of a mission. Would be interesting if we could attempt to gain back their trust.

      I'd like a Discovery medical badge with the different ranks like the science, operations, and command badges.

      Those civilian outfits the away team wore to the Orion camp would be great, as well as some more costume options for Orions (like the chain the male Orion "companion" was wearing).

      Kelpian player characters and boffs would be nice, or even just adding additional parts to the alien character creator so we could create them.

      On that note, an update to Tellarite and Andorian character creator options would be cool too, to reflect the new elements introduced to each species.

      The head gear the comm officers wear would be nice too.

      None of it. Aside from cosmetic options.

      "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."

      Rest of it can burn.......Mirror Georgiou far exceeds the most murderous tyrants in human history In the Prime Universe and the Feds hired her to burn Q'onos for them. Roddenberry is spinning in his grave right now.

      - More FED ships (maybe as new temporal ships costumes ?)
      - Other DSC ships (Fed shuttle, Vulcan ship, Terran Imperial ship, Klingon cruisers...)
      - Discovery bridge + full interior (+ walker bridge variant ?)
      - More ground weapons (pistol, bat'leth)
      - New species seen on the Discovery bridge (still waiting for Jaylah species from ST Beyond...)
      - Klingon appearance (faces, uniforms, environmental suit)
      - Mirror uniforms
      - Vulcan outfits (like Sarek's)

      A mission and map to visit the Orion Embassy on Qo'noS. That intrigued me. Especially in light of STO's closer ties between Klingons and Orions in the 25th century. It would be an opportunity to see more of Qo'noS.

      What would be nice is before adding more Discovery you add some of the missing TNG-VOY Era ships not available at T6 like the VOR'CHA, Nova, Sabre, Steamrunner, Ambassador (Either new ship or allow us to use the skin on the T6 Guardian) just to name a few

      Kelpians.

      Klingon costumes (especially the Torchbearer stuff) and new look as option.

      The new ship designs for Starfleet and Klingons. Specifically also the new Connie model.

      A mission set partially on one of those old ships. (Can be later reused as an interior for the DIS-based ships). Maybe with some creepy atmosphere.

      A mission set on the Orion part of Q'onoS, with the undercover work feeling of the final DIS episode. Maybe also involving some contemporary worshipers of Molor. Maybe this could even tie in with the Fek'Ihri and the Hurq.

      Personally I don't think it would be a good idea to add Discovery-related stuff ... yet.

      In many countries, Discovery cannot even be seen due to the stupid way CBS decided to release it. I can still watch it through some illegitimate websites, but I'm far behind the current episode.

      I know, this is hardly a reason to not release new game content for everyone else, but at the same time I can't imagine I'm the only one who would like to watch Discovery but hasn't gotten around to it, or facing similar difficulties.

      And there's also the fact that the story is still developing to consider. Personally I would wait at least a few months until people have gotten a chance to catch up without the game spoilering things they have yet to see in the show - and at the same time giving the show itself a chance to develop and the storyline to unfold.
