    Excuse me sir, I believe what you meant to say was Spocket Boots.

    You're welcome ;)

    I can actually get behind this, I love those boots.
    Now a LTS and loving it.
    Just because you spend money on this game, it does not entitle you to be a jerk if things don't go your way.

    and it's not like the engine can't support them, since it was built off CO, which has rocket boots as a travel power​​
    Like special weapons from other Star Trek games? Wondering if they can be replicated in STO even a little bit? Check this out: https://forum.arcgames.com/startrekonline/discussion/1262277/a-mostly-comprehensive-guide-to-star-trek-videogame-special-weapons-and-their-sto-equivalents

    I'm genuinely surprised they didn't do this to begin with, instead of the floater units.

    Personally, I'd rather have the Sprocket boots as a Risa version of the frosted boots with a jump boost...maybe wearable in combat so we can do the mega jumps some mobs do

    Same. Those would indeed be far out and groovy.

    Excellent idea. Perhaps a s'mores variant, too?

    The rocket boots are already in game. There used to be an old glitch that sometimes gave them to you. People exploited the glitch on Risa and then they made it impossible to glitch the feature. They SHOULD bring them into the game.

    I 100% support this idea. Why these have never been added makes no sense. They are the original "floater" used in a Trek film.

    The reason why they cannot add them is [Fill in the Blank] and blah blah blah. So given the one Thread about this item, it's time to add it to the FCT. ;)

    not the first time ive posted this but last years thread didn't get any support. im happy it got some this year.

    Amazed it's not been implemented yet, one of the most iconic scenes of Trek' - and as another person already mentioned, the tech for the boots already exists as the game is built from the Champions Online engine.

    Would be cool as part of a TWoK era themed update. One can wish.
    When you see "TRIBBLE" in my posts, it's because I manually typed "TRIBBLE" and censored myself.
  • shinnok918shinnok918 Member Posts: 312 Arc User
    I would actually want these with the ability to do the "supervulcan spock" move. (think when he had to rescue kirk)
  • centurian821centurian821 Member Posts: 274 Arc User
    I am behind this idea 110% And the marshmallow dispenser and a "Row Row Row Your Boat" emote! All of it!
  • shinnok918shinnok918 Member Posts: 312 Arc User
    C'mon devs a response? You know the Rocket Boots would be the newest hot item on Risa. And what's more is that they are completely 100% canon.
  • echattyechatty Member Posts: 5,917 Arc User
    It's doubtful we'll get them now. Maybe next year.
    Now a LTS and loving it.

    a response from a dev saying "maybe next year" since its too late for this year is kind of what I want

    Well, you're not likely to get a response here, if that's what you're looking for. You'd have better luck getting a response if you ask for it during a livestream
