No ship interiors?

goodbye immersion.

how can i have my own ship if i cant walk around my own ship or interact with my crew? i would have even been happy with a cheap cookie cutter instance of my ship interior like the seemingly pointless bridge.

how can i be a ships commander if i have to do absolutely everything myself? what are my bridge officers for? simply for a buff or ability that i still have to activate on my own? couldnt one of these brain dead bridge officers at least fire my weapons when they are cycled?

    I think (and hope) that this kind of immersion and free will from the BOs will be implemented when other types of missions are designed. All of the crew on the ship, including the BOs, are essentially professional specialists within their field, and should be more than qualified to make decisions on their own, pending a permit from the captain in vital cases.

    Thats what the series imply anyway.

    Trouble is, the Bridge is an instance, so if you go to it, you won't be traveling en-route as you do. This is a massive problem because of the way the game is structured. I think they've realised this and don't want to admit it.

    The closest Cryptic equivalent of having "ship interiors" in this game would be City of Heroes' supergroup bases. It took a full year and a half -after- that game's launch before we got to play with those. Frankly even though the bridges we have are pretty limited at least we got them at this game's launch.

    It's possible we'll eventually get more ship interior stuff to play with.
    But I wouldn't hold my breath for it to happen anytime soon.
