    Great post, I would honestly love to see these more often.

    I'm personally a little leery of a death penalty, as I like things as-is, but like any good Borg, I'm sure I'll adapt to whatever you guys come up with.

    i have one hope that i think all that are in my rank are shouting for........THE ABILITY TO RANK UP FURTHER AND NEW SHIPS LIKE THE JUPITER SHIPS AND THE FUTURE SHIPS THAT ARE LIKE THE ONES IN THE ENTERPRISE EPISODE WHERE ARCHER GOES AND WITNESSES THE BATTLE BETWEEN THE FUTURE HUMANS AND THE EXPANSION BUILDERS.

    First I really like the update and I like how plain fun English it was written in. No boring stuffiness there!!

    No about the Death Penalty!!

    NO NO NO NO... I want to keep playing no having to look for my body or ship... Not fun.. I like how you have it setup now..

    well it all sound great, i just hope they dont go overboard on the dp and turn it into another reding game, nothing get rid of players faster than loosing a days play to one death.

    everything else sound wonderful

    First of all, thanks for the great info and taking the time to write it all up.

    The whole "Death Penalty" thing is an interesting topic. I, for one, like the lack of a death penalty... however, I also understand the need to care about loss. It's tough. There are some times when I will enter a Deep Space Encounter and be warped right into the middle of an opposing fleet... it's a little annoying, but nothing severe. But with a Death Penalty, this problem would be almost unbearable. I know you lovable gents at Cryptic will come to a solution that will work for all parties, and I look forward to seeing it.

    For the record, STO is the first MMO I have ever felt was good enough and compelling enough to pay a monthly fee for. Thanks for that. Cheers.

    Who are the Undine and what drives them?

    call the big boss one Sheeba :D

    How can we better exploit the Genesis System to create even more compelling content?

    Convince a dev that planet X found by player Y, used by Fleet Z must go boom ?

    Where can we boldly go next? Where shall we take exploratory missions, as there's so much potential there?

    hmmm Fluidic Space :D

    Which faction should be playable next? Romulan? Cardassian? Pakled? Dominion? Horta? Okay, not so much the Pakleds.

    Undine!! :D though.. back into reality.. meh.. Romulans.

    "We already know what you think about a death penalty, Craig – but The Community really thinks it's a good idea"

    Sounds great, the 2 things I miss however...

    - Fully 3D space combat
    - Improved ground combat

    I hope they are coming too...

    You guys are the tops, man. Keep it up. I'm patiently waiting for all the potential of this great game to be realized. It's got it's problems and its charm, and it's going to be one helluva game if the developers continue to show their love for it and listening to the community. A+ for the listening to us part, a VERY important part of good development !

    Nice update :)

    Also, I liked the little survey you guys did. Release more similar surveys :)
    Make sure they are prominent in the STO launcher, so that people who don't have twitter or visit the website can see in the launcher.
    Plus it's always nice getting free Cryptic points :P

    Ok In opening I want to say thanks for bringing us this adventure!
    Just the logistics of the Bugs you have squashed from the beta till today just blew me away.
    If your team has never played the old board game "Starfleet Battles", Then I suggest you get your hands on this game and play it. You have from my perspective captured and brought this board game to the computer world.
    Thanks!

    Wow now that was....something. So much stuff crammed into that. Good read, and looking forward to it.

    Now I have to ask since it wasn't on the list, what's the ETA on letting people choose their instance again when changing zones so they can better meet up with friends without having to zone twice?

    thank you cryptic my faith was starting to waver but now i know i made the right choice. i can't wait for the updates i like the mention of a first officer and can't wait to see the new ships you guys are working on. as for us your ravenous players ever really ask for is to be kept updated even just a few words on what you guys are doing is better than nothing for days on end. again your doing a wonderful job thanks for the awsome game

    What I want to know is if and when voice overs for BOs are coming. I can't connect with them because they don't say anything! >_< I want them screaming commands and status reports in the heat of battle, not the drab, emotionless computer....

    WHEN ARE THE VOICES COMING??? Seriously, if it's a matter of man-power, I have a production company. I have a bevy of competent actors. Cryptic, we can work something out! I just want my BO's to talk... ;_;
