The paranoia, the scheming. Let's just call him Praetor J'mpok from now on.

Mostly I hope despite any narrative, logical, and suspension of disbelief issues it will be fun.
I get why they do it, to let people finish 'the event' easier, but I really don't like playing in normal.
He muttered, “Die with honor.”
J'mpok reminds me of Ambassador B'vat. Once honourable, using now using others to fight and die for him so he can walk on fallen to claim easy victory.

That's 'Queen Stinky of Targ Sty' for you 🐗
I haven't seen the video yet, how do they actually combine space and ground? Is it like the dyson sphere?

It's more like Atmosphere Assault, just without any gravity or atmosphere because it takes place on a moon - makes sense, since they're building ships there - no ground collision if you happen to want to go say hello to the ground forces really up close and you use a ship instead of a shuttle.
Agreed.
Ci sono tre tipi di giocatori:
- quelli a cui non va mai bene niente... e vanno sul forum a trollare;
- quelli che sono talmente imbesuiti da credere a qualunque cosa i dev dicano, perfino che la luna è fatta di formaggio... e vanno sul forum a trollare;
- quelli che credono a quello a cui è giusto credere, sono d'accordo con quello con cui è giusto essere d'accordo e sono critici con quello che non va;
Ai giocatori dei primi due tipi, gratis in omaggio un bello specchio lucente su cui arrampicarsi. E una mazzata in testa per la loro poca intelligenza e compassione verso gli altri giocatori che non la pensano come loro.
Agli appartenenti al terzo tipo, invece, dico grazie. Anche se non sempre si riesce a mantenere la calma, siete quelli per cui vale la pena incazzarsi.
Also seems like julia is going to end up being painted as the machiavellian villian behind everything the same way the iconians were shoehorned into being the ones to blame for the various races coming to wage war. Given that her tactics so far are basically to dump a crapton of fragile vessels right on top of the player until a timer runs out she's either not that smart or is pulling a daniels and yoinking forces from the past.
Hopefully, we'll get the Shuttle Event back this Spring.
l don't know.
l really don't know what l'm about to say, except l have a feeling about it.

No ground collision. Well that removes any reason to care about the moon or your flying.
Lack of gravitational effects is another big missed opportunity to add some interesting feature to this map.
The scale is really off. 10km weapons range is essentially that airliner flying at 30000 feet bombarding the surface of the Earth, and this feels well below that range. The current scale actually would have been more plausible if there was an atmosphere as it would interfere with directed energy attacks and add friction to torpedoes. Of course scale has never been easy to do in this game, but it is easier to hide in space.
New enemies would have been nice, walkers are very old hat at this point.
Building ships on a moon instead of space? Ooh, that is just wrong. It is more wrong with realism than Trek, yet it would be nice to explain it well, like they are easier to hide from scans on the moon, and the moon is actively being mined so it is arguably more efficient.
Also if you don't understand these nitpicks, I'm someone who repeatedly bug reported Earth's moon for its wildly wrong orbital inclination, not to mention the scale.
Still hope its fun, but I think adding effects like collision and gravity would actually make it much more interesting and fun, not just another space map where you don't have to think about terrain.

Thank You, Cryptic......even when I don't agree with all your decisions....Thank You for Star Trek Online!
the excuse is by the time the hur'q showed up the klingon empire has been screwed over so many times by their "allies" that j'mpok is just done with it, he is keeping the alliance going cause he has little choice about it but he not happy about it.
as far as any odd characterization problems, I give even odds cryptic just plain doesn't know about them.
if I stop posting it doesn't make you right it. just means I don't have enough rum to continue interacting with you.
Can we have tow cables to wrap around the walkers' legs please?

Kael wasn't rubberbanding, if that's what you were referring to, he was backing up.
It looks interesting and I hope to give it a try. I always play normal. Sometimes advanced, but never elite.
Star Trek version of SW's Battle Of Jakku, except with no big ships crashing on the surface and no allied ground forces.
I disagree. Mayhap you have not run into him when trying to save Miral Paris. He states how his future self is without honour.
This would be something I'd like to see if the TOS era factions would be expanded for the AoY recruitment drive.
Martok explained how much J'mpok has changed since the younger J'mpok defeated him. How J'mpok's political drive had overtaken his sense of honour.
J'Ula, on the other hand remains the same, both in terms of motivations and goals.
J'mpok, like B'vat is heading down a downward spiral. Question is whether J'mpok will meet the same fate as B'vat, or will he change before it's too late?
Out of copyright concerns, they'll use tractor beams (both franchises use tractor beams
Close enough

Not necessarily someone, but also something.
Klingons have always needed an external enemy or their houses would turn against each other in their thirst for battle. J'mpok knows that because no such external enemies exist and, moreover, an 'internal' one does exist, J'ula has the potential to tear the Empire apart.
The only way to avoid that is to fight her, without doing it himself.
I hadn't seen the video yet either, I didn't want to see any spoilers. But apparently it's nothing like the DS
