I was flipping through missions on my KDF main and came across a couple tutorial missions, imagine my shock and surprise to find out that the old empire defence nebula missions are will in game for the KDF side!
So I went to my FED main to look for these same mission! I guess you can say the nostalgia got the better of me, I loved doing all the nebula missions.
in all honestly like what I saw on the KDF side, these can be used for Dilithium!
from what I have seen so far are only available for KDF! Please make nebula missions available for feds too please
I was flipping through missions on my KDF main and came across a couple tutorial missions, imagine my shock and surprise to find out that the old empire defense nebula missions are still in game for the KDF side!
Was able to get and begin the 3 Pi Canis - Path of the Warrior missions on a one year old KDF toon. They're still in the available tab. Good for some nostalgia I guess but otherwise looking a bit dated.

We didn't really have anything equivelent to the nebula missions Fed side. Closest we had were the old Exploration clusters that created randomized patrols that boiled down to "shoot five groups of enemies" or "Scan five objects".
Nothing really useful, and the load times were long since they had to be generated each time.
And Memory Alpha used to be the crafting hub. Since Crafting is no longer tied to that, it would be a pointless location. Kinda like Andoria. No one really goes to Andoria unless they're doing Role Play or we have the Anniversary Event going.
I can't take it anymore! Could everyone just chill out for two seconds before something CRAZY happens again?!

This.
The nebula exploration missions on the Fed side were okay, but just that.
Even as "randomly generated missions" there was only so much random to go around. It didn't take long for a strong sense of deja vu to kick in and a player to look elsewhere for something different.
Still, if they could update them, maybe add a "warp to" button to let us explore a "strange new world" without them having to create one and place it on the map, it could be fun. Put in a full roster of enemies, include the possibility of us needing EV suits, it could still be a distraction.
And they could use pieces of existing maps to provide the setting rather than creating all-new elements.
But I would like them to do a little more with planets like Andoria and even Vulcan. There should at least be a proper Federation facility on the planets.
Maybe not the equal of ESD in order to maintain a core social hub, but certainly better than what we have now.
