I'm not a canon freak or anything, but are you really telling me that when I blasted a Klingon Munitions Officer, he dropped a croissant? Trust me, I realize there are far more pressing issues than idiot loot tables, but come on. What developer put that in a klingon's loot table? Did he go to Developers Junior College?

    Lol - I had the exact same thing happen with a Gorn, and I agree with you completely :D

    For me, Klingons drop a lot of haggis; which I suppose it is more Klingon-like than a croissant. To be frank, I really dislike all of the food drops in the game. They just don't make any sense to me for this IP/genre.

    I could even deal with food drops if they gave long lasting buffs or something, but I have never even used food since my Science Officer heals the group. If they are going to have food drops, at least make them semi-accurate. I doubt any Klingons, especially Munitions Officers, spent any time with Julia Childs...

    look it's the 25th century, Klingon's like Croissants, what do you think there is a stereo type saying Klingon's can't like Croissants, because I find that speciesist, but I forgive you because I'm an Intelligent Klingon.

    * also it made me laugh the first time I found on the a Klingon

    I always think it's funny when very non-human aliens drop cat food in this game.
    District 9 anyone? ;)

    Sensible loot tables go a long way toward creating immersion. If I vaporize someone his armor shouldn't survive intact as loot. It's one thing to find soup and other food in a chest but from the corpse of a guy I just killed? Weapons, armor and shields etc, should all drop from non-vaporized opponents but they should be half useless and need to be repaired before I can equip them... perhaps that's too complex for the vision the devs have for STO.

    I had the same reaction when I got banana pancakes off of a Klingon Munitions Officer. I like to think that he was previously stranded on some planet with humans, and forced to steal food from them, which introduced him to these delicious fluffy circles full of fruit. He was, of course, addicted to them by the time he was rescued, and had to keep his love of human food a secret from the other Klingons until the very end...

    As he lay dying on the cold floor of the stardock, he pulled the last banana pancake from his bag. it wouldn't matter if his comrades caught him now. It was over... just one bite... one delicious... bite...

    And that klingon is, despite being dead, very upset that his secret likings have become common knowledge.

    It was established in ST VI that Klingons invented q'wasonts, which are pastries shaped like bat'leths. The Federation stole the idea from them, along with Shakespeare.

    if you pull up the replicator on a klingon ship you get earl grey tea, root beer, etc.... guess root beer is popular on Qonos?? Wheres taht stuff they are eating on that TNG episode where I think Riker went on board the klingon ship for a couple days.

    Klingons act so violent and gruff all the time. I can't help but think that they are overcompensating for something.

    Perhaps a fondness for delicate, crusty pastries shows that there's more to Klingons than meets the eye? Ha! Who says this game has no depth?

    I had a Klingon drop a Banana Pancake.

    I didn't eat it for fear of poor hygiene on behalf of it's previous owner

    What would be very interesting is to find out if these are the same loot table from Champion's Online. I would "HOPE" that they would be more original for STO than just cutting & pasting.

    I got a hot fudge sundae as a drop. It was delicious.

    Maybe I'm being ungrateful, but every time I get a food drop I feel like the "failure" horn riff from The Price is Right should play.

    That is too funny!

    Btw, I have had the famous warriors drop a 'fish sandwitch'. Combine that with the Earl Grey Tea, and we have some very British Klingons.

    I just look at it as money dropping since you can quickly sell everything you get when you beam up.

    What I feel bad for is when I bring down six enemy ships and get a auxiliary battery.
