Can we have more transwarp destinations in the game?

I think it's time to add more transwarp destinations in the game. Should have a destination to all battlezones and social areas and commonly traveled to locations. It's annoying having a transwarp destination to some places but not others.

Nukara, Kobali Prime, Badlands Battlezone, Undine Battlezone [I know one already goes to the Solanae Dyson Sphere], Nimbus, New Romulus, Drozana Station, Risa, Memory Alpha and some others I'm probably forgetting.

    Memory Alpha, now there's a name I've not heard in a long, long time. A long time.

    I agree it would be nice to get rid of the silly transwarp coil mechanic and just let us transwarp, without needing the hack of starting then abandoning a nearby story episode.

    You may not be aware of a recent change in the game, Missions transwarps are now free. This gives nearly any destination you could possibly wish to visit or somewhere nearby, as a free tw point by accepting the mission you want and then selecting the option to transwarp to it on the mission mini journal just below the minimap.

    I agree with TW destinations to BZs where we don't already have TWs to.

    But yeah, Memory Alpha is no longer aroung, or at least it's not used for crafting anymore.
    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.
    I have come to the conclusion that I have a memory like Etch-A-Sketch. I shake my head and forget everything. :D

    Yes, it is silly. If they give everyone unlimited free transwarps to every episode mission, which in practice means everywhere, they might as well put up all those destinations straight in the transwarp menu (and remove the cooldown). Forcing players to go through the episode list is just a frivolous hoop-jumping exercize at this point.

    After that, the next logical step is to remove the now-useless Sector Space completely and just have us transwarp everywhere.

    I never did any crafting prior to the crafting revamp. I just thought it was still on the map.

    Its still on the map. Just not a visitable location anymore.

    That old style crafting isn't working where they deliberately left it in on Defera.

    (a) Some of us (i.e. me) like to fly through sector space for the feel of space travel.

    (b) doff mission clusters

    Now if we could talk about useless inbetween orbit maps (DS9, Risa, Nimbus III) only there to provide us with an extra loading screen ...

    Heh, I still remember how we used to have to rezone repeatedly just to walk around ESD.... MASSIVE waste of time.

    since transwarp to mission no longer costs anything... just use those. start up each mission and transwarp to em and make a list to see where they go... then always keep up the locations you want.

    Yes. Which is why it's unfortunate Cryptic has turned it from a space we all traveled through into a frivolous waste of time to be skipped with the press of a button. But it is what it is and they're not likely to remove the transwarps.

    The addition of other purpose for sector space is of course possible, though I don't see it as very likely, either. Especially since the...

    ...haven't worked since the walls came down and don't look like they'll ever be fixed.

    The assignments are also very badly outdated compared to Admiralty and other newer content. To the point I don't usually care to even slot the assignments that are available everywhere, and would never even consider trying to hit the illusive hotspots where the regional specials have gone.
    Now if we could talk about useless inbetween orbit maps (DS9, Risa, Nimbus III) only there to provide us with an extra loading screen ...
    Yes, those should also be either given a useful purpose or removed.

    I would like to thank the devs for adding more transwarp destinations to the list since the Awakening update. Most of the ones I mentioned before have been added.
