a great scene from a great episode... someone needs to cut and paste this into a video of themself blowing the TRIBBLE out of everything and everyone in STO just for the irony.
more space monsters to rescue and help please!
example:
Jem'hadar or some other evil guys are attacking one of those space whales, it's pregnant and they kill it and you gotta escort the baby to a nearby asteroid field and protect it from more enemies until you reuinite it with more of it's kind etc!
Comments
At least they're looking at suggestions. Jackalope posted on the thread in my sig.

Good to hear, Zinc. Any chance we could hear something about a diplomacy system, soon?
Hey, so long as you are willing to be nice, considerate, and helpful, they'll listen.
I put in a suggestion a bit ago, and it's being considered.
However, I do agree and I do hope for more of these kinds of missions.
Someone asked dstahl about it in the latest engineering report's comments. He said the team is in a heated debate about what to do about diplomacy.
so according to dstahl season two goes from july until october?
Season 2 is expected to be released in July, yes.
That's what I was thinking. I like the pew-pew.
I recommend they make diplomacy a series of heated debates.
For starters Jem'Hadar and klingon are the best races ever...=p
2ndly. Don't you guys already have enough tree hugging missions?!?!?!? Examine those plants, fix the artifact, Aid the poor ppls planet, etc....
You NEED to go try the new KDF explore missions. Raid, pillage and PLUNDER KDF style. Thatt's where it's at.
Actually, part of what I'm lamenting is the lack of depth in the so-called "tree hugging missions." If I wanted to pew pew, I'd have played a Klingon. I just want playing the Federation to feel like playing the Federation.
What level is your Security Clearence?
DONE! 10char
I agree. So long as it's an option.
Good.
In any other game, the non-combat content would annoy the snot out of me, but in this game, we need more of it!
Please add some variety if possible, please. I dunno if I can stand any more pixel hunts.
Great Zinc. I was afraid that you would add a few episodic non combat missions : I prefer the exploration solution because 1) exploration needs love 2) exploration missions are repeatable, which means that we can have non combat content as often as we wish.
Picard would be sick if he knew the amount of beings my crew and I have slaughtered.
pretend your a terran
For real, if you don't like my work, have my weapons
STO need more exploration & non combat content !
Gaming nowadays tends to annoy me when it resorts to style over substance. MMOs could be so much more if they just found a good way to drop the grinder and do something creative. Again, I do not mind the pew pew (so long as we are talking about the space combat, I still do not like ground combat that much), as one of my favorite Star Trek games is Star Fleet Command, and the table top games, Star Fleet Battles, but grinding all the way to RA, now soon to be VA, is excruciating.
I tried picking it up again, but like the time I tried getting back into WoW, I only ended up going so far before putting the game down again. In fact I think I only leveled a mage up to level 4 and couldn't stand it anymore. I already had one high level. Just like this game, I have an RA lower half, but can't really bring myself to continue it right now.
I do appreciate cryptic listening to the community though, and even if I still have a few problems with Cryptic's conduct (per-character C-Store items), they do come through with many other things (Catians, Kzinti, Talaxians, Excelsior, Nebula, Ship Interiors, and the Rigelians among others).
