Expansion Victory is life - question / comment

in Feature Episodes, Events and PvE Content
Hello, not sure who reads this or if it will even make it to whom ever decides on expansion / episodes.
My question is: this summer you came out with the first DS9 expansion and I as well as many were excited. So far the episodes (story line) are great. I also understand the need to come out with a new expansion for Discovery. Whether you like the show or not, what I do not understand is why you had to cut new content for DS9 for Discovery. I was really hoping for more new and continuing content around DS9 and maybe one day, Voyager, or even some new post Nemesis, now that Picard is returning. Is your company not able to divide your teams for one to be assigned to DS9 and the other for Discovery?

I really hope you guys will discuss this in what ever weekly meetings you guys hold and are able to come up with a why to come up with content for both series, in respect.

Thank you
Demian

    The dev team at Cryptic may not be as large as some other MMO's out there. We get the content that we do when pretty much the entire team is focused on one thing. There are times we get perhaps 1 mission every other month and that's not enough for some folks. Granted, I personally would like more content at a faster pace, but then quality suffers.

    Also, just because there is new Discovery content coming, does not mean there won't be more DS9 content at some point. As for Voyager content, Delta Rising was entirely Voyager focused and was the second largest expansion in the game. Granted, we haven't revisited anything Voyager (or more specifically Delta Quadrant) related since, but we may some day.

    Seeing how closely Cryptic seems to be working with CBS lately, I'd be shocked if we don't get some "Picard" related content once that show is up and running. Ships, uniforms, supporting characters possibly doing VO specifically for the game, new weapons, baddies, it's pretty wide open right now.

    Will we get Sir Patrick lending his likeness and voice to the game? I'd kind of doubt any voice acting specifically for the game would happen, but his likeness could perhaps be used along with maybe some lines from the old/new series. Who knows, it's far too early to do more than speculate.

    With the millions of dollars Cryptic is making they should have no excuse to provide more content. Make it happen.

    Thank you for the quick response, it's very appreciated. I do hope that you guys can get more help if needed to get more content out there, Xmas is around the corner :wink:

    I don't know the slate you all have in dev. but after Discovery, hopefully you guys will be able to do more of DS9.

    Also, just a thought, maybe you guys could make a small season based from the aliens point of view?
    Maybe an invasion from some new enemy? I had heard that STO is allowed to create canon, so maybe?

    One more question, will there ever be an Enterprise season? I would love to be able to use the NX for mission more then just at the start of the game. As far as I can remember, there was only one time, in the temporal season, Archer and the Enterprise was mentioned.

    Anyways, thank you again for the Crptic update.
