Update 3 on 5/9:



Update 4 on 5/13:

From this week's ten-forward livestream:

Originally playable DIS klingon heads were just "something that would be nice to do" (and andorian too), but now they are in "Year of klingon" they have a plan what they want with them and thus those heads now have actual place in schedule.

Worf's hair and sash may become more available.

Klingon tutorial would be updated.

    Players though without Twitter or FB won't get to see the Stovokor Saturday content (until a player posts it here. IF a player decides to post to here that is)

    I didn't realize how excited I was for Klingon content until this was posted.

    Yeah this is an ever present annoyance here, and personally there's no way I'm going to bother with Twit or FB, so I'd miss out on it. However I'm also of the mindeset that I don't really care until its in game anyway.

    I have two lifetime accounts. On my main I run nine FED oriented toons and on my alt, I run nine that are predominantly KDF oriented. So ..... half of me is really excited, but the other half will make due as well!

    (although it’s a fair bet that J’Ula and her time traveling cohorts are involved)

    Please, no!

    who doesn’t love a story that involves descending into Grethor and fighting a god?

    Right here! That's the only Klingon Arc I skip. The rest of them I will go back and replay just for how fun they are, unlike a lot of late game missions which I replay just for items.



    While I am quite happy to hear that the KDF is finally getting some love again, I am worried that those early missions might lose some of their charm while they are getting a shiny new coat. I hope we get to see more arcs of Klingons being Klingons: going on raids, reveling in their victories. Although, I am aware that there are dailies that can sate that desire already.

    Also, maybe next year you could do something with the Romulans or Dominion. You remember the Dominion, right? The half-faction you made and then did nothing with.

    Well, I'll be looking forward to this with very cautious optimism.

    Good luck.

    OMG! Cryptic! Sometimes I love you! Best news ever...

    I think we should set the calandar back a year due to Corona. I don’t know what I am going to do with all these 2020 Olympic t-shirts I printed. Makes sense that the missing year would be the Klingon year...

    I’m teasing of course. I got six unrestricted slots—can’t wait to celebrate by minting some new toons.

    Hope we can also get curly non-dreaded long hair, d'ktang, “crazy Gowran eyes”, D7s with the bird of prey paint, some of the long jackets you made like the stuff j’mpak has...

    And I guess I want DISCO-Braveheart warpaint.

    I can’t add the picture for some reason

    Wait, the Klingons exist for other purposes other than being contraband farmers for dilithium?
  • trennantrennan Member Posts: 2,839 Arc User
    Ok.. I may have a heart attack here. Al Riviera is finally letting go of his dislike for the KDF? What's next they're actually going to work PvP too?

    IF you go by ingame story, they're the loyal lapdog fighting force of the Alliance.

    I give it 3 to 1 odd in favor this being preparation to fold the kdf faction into the federation. I really can't think of any other reason they'ld actally put any effort in this at all.


    if I stop posting it doesn't make you right it. just means I don't have enough rum to continue interacting with you.

    Ooohh.....I'm definitely going to need more character slots...

    Maybe we'll get a half sized Klingon legendary pack? 5 ships for 15K discounted to around 8. Wouldn't that be a nice treat...I could finally have a D7!
  • nrobbiecnrobbiec Member Posts: 959 Arc User
    An unexpected and most exciting surprise. I do wonder if this is running concurrent with the romulan revamp that has been sort of happening with no fanfare (lots more fully voices dialogues instead of just "I'm not afraid of the tal shiar") or if it's supplanting it and the romulan full make over will be a 2021 thing.

    Either way it is nice to bring some of the older stuff more in line with the visual quality they're capable of now.

    Then all they need is to fix the bugs victory is life introduces and all will be well.

    I been waiting for that since the "Everyone can now fly Romulan ships." was announced. This would just make things easier, cause then Cryptic can just release all feddie-bear stuff.
