This would be totally awesome. I also vote for making it easier to get a whole TOS set (I had to get 2 copies of this game to get the matching constitution class ship to go with my uniform, but I'm still missing my bridge)!
While you're at it, why not make a TOS Klingon ship to go with it for the Klingon side?
All you had to buy (or even currently still buy) is the Gamestop DDE.. it comes with the TOS Uniforms and the TOS Connie..
I would also like to see (and would likely buy) a properly scaled TOS bridge. Honestly, the extra open space is a bit annoying - despite the intent of inviting the fleet over.
And since we got the "Miranda inspired" bridges in the c-store now, would it be too much to ask for a properly scaled TWOK bridge? Up to a good start though I suppose.
I'd pay a few bucks worth of CRYPTIC points to get to visualize my (toon) self on what was "The Bridge" I grew up with. It would be great to invite friends over too.
Would be even better if you could buy the whole set, Constitutuion Class ship, TOS Uniforms, and the Bridge together. Type 2 Phasers even, and emotes with communicators & sounds.
I know some people have the Connie Class and TOS Uniforms already, and to keep them happy, they could get the bridge for free. With the "right to change the game" clause that would be legal, and most wouldn't object to getting something else free to make up for being less exclusive.
If you think this is a good idea, give me a quick thumbs up smilie response people.
BUMP!
I've got the original Connie, but it gets "outclassed" pretty quickly. It would even be more exciting if appropriate upgrade ability could be imparted to the TOS ship, bridge, etc. THAT would be worth some C-Stare Creds to be certain!
They already have TOS Klinks in the Guardian mission anyway, so shouldn't be too hard to let players use that. Maybe adding more variants but mostly just adding a swarthy complexion and mongol facial hair to human forms IIRC. The costumes were where it was at. Can't recall if they were actual D7's or movie-era K'tinga's though.
However, I fear the scaling changes that would be done to it. You've seen the in-game bridges that are supposed to be the Sovereign class bridges, right?
Yah a TOS bridge would be cool and alot of TOS stuff other people mentioned would be cool too.
I am all for this idea....
And maybe a C-STORE emote....called the "I'm a Doctor not a...." whihc randomly has the character say they are a Doctor not an Animal Trainer...or Brick Layer...or Zooologist or whatver randomly.
And maybe we could get a Horta character or Bridge officer...or some androids...
And where the Heck is the Giant Space Amoeba......sure the Crystaline Entity was bad.....but what about the giant Space Amoeba? That certainly seamed like a worse thing then the Crystaline Entity...was bigger too....much cheesier special effects too.
And maybe a C-STORE emote....called the "I'm a Doctor not a...." whihc randomly has the character say they are a Doctor not an Animal Trainer...or Brick Layer...or Zooologist or whatver randomly.
Oh that would be epic if it was randomly generated. I support this idea!
I am in total support of this idea.
Items to include:
1) TOS Phaser I & II
2) TOS Communicator
3) TOS Tricorder
4) TOS Boot
5) TOS off duty clothes
6) TOS Dress Uniforms
7) TOS Bridge [correct size]
I am a Starfleet Battles Player so my ideal dream ship is from Franz Joseph's book "Starfleet Tech Manual"
My personel desire is the Federation Class Dreadnaught. It would be about a tier 3 or 4 Deep Exploration ship. Its not canon and I think there might be some copyright issues but I had to get it out there.
YES to the OP comments and YES o all 7 points above..PLAESE make it so number one..!
I have the ship and uniforms. I'd love to have the bridge and character accessoriies like phaser, communicator, tricorder, etc, complete with proper emotes. I'd spend points on it in a second.
The idea of socializing on a bridge is pretty redonkulous. Bring the scale back down. I'm using the Triumph Bridge right now and I can just hear the echos shouting to the conn and nav....
It would be great if -- once ship interiors become a plausible pursuit -- we could get complete interior packs for TOS & its movies; Archer-, Pike-, Picard-, & Janeway-eras; and Dauntless- & Relativity-class ships as well (all scalable so that they'll fit in my DSSV).
I'd love to be able to pick different era interiors for each room.
For that matter, I'd enjoy having ship skin variants of the aforementioned types (again, scaled for my DSSV)
I also add my voice to that of the people who don't want the Abrams bridge [or *anything* to do with ST(2009)], but *do* want the following:
1) TOS Phaser I & II
2) TOS Communicator
3) TOS Tricorder
4) TOS Boot
5) TOS off duty clothes
6) TOS Dress Uniforms
Oh! And I kan haz purple Mk X blue ship's phasers ... pleez?
I know you was kidding, but please, we don't need the Apple store in game. Different reality. :-)
We already have the JJ Abrams movie bridge in the C-Store. It's the Star Cruiser bridge pack. They made some changes like making things blue instead of red and white, and adding TNG-style lover's seats beside the captain's chair, but it's the same bridge. Except bigger (like ALL the bridges they've done so far). I will say, however that it's not as appallingly noticeable because the 2009 movie bridge was already much bigger and spacious than the TOS bridge.
Also ask yourself if you really want a TOS bridge after seeing how they've rescaled the Voyager, Defiant, Galaxy, and Sovereign bridges. I wouldn't mind having the layout, but I'm not holding my breath for something that actually looks like the TOS bridge, and especially not going to expect them to be able to make the scale look anything close to accurate.
I have no problem putting things in the C-Store as long as they charge something (not free) but reasonable, and the proceedes from any such item goes exclusively toward adding of free content for all. Those of us who purchased should get the value of the item in the C-Store added to our Cryptic points. Those of us that have the Connie should get the bridge for free and it should be able to hold as many bridge officers as it originally did!

Starfleet Battles was THE best Star Trek ship combat pen/paper game EVER. The game conversion (Starfleet Command I, II & III) was the best starship combat PC game EVER.
I never understood why bridges had to be so big. The only people moving around in it is us and whomever we invite over. We don't have problems getting stuck on objects. Our BO's, on the other hand, spent their Academy days huddled around a table drinking Mintakan Dew and playing Corners and Consoles.

Oh, and the TOS bridge is full of WIN.
I like the cut of your jib!
What you said is like music to my ears.... oh for a SFB Online PC game......
A TOS bridge for my TOS Enterprise would be nice, but I'm not in any hurry for it since bridges are pretty much useless anyway. What I'd really like is a TOS D7 for my Klingon.

1 package and is currently $39.99

i vote for this bridge!!

"Ah...what would you want with THAT bucket o'bolts for?!"
...sorry it was there, had to.
She's a pretty ship, to be sure!
Limed for Truth.

TOS bridge (with those old school bleeping sound fx) would be EPIC!
and TOS hand phasers. Communicators, tricorders, etc.
putting this all into a "TOS Pack" on the c-store would have my vote.

I don't think there is supposed to be an exit there.
That is the TAS bridge that someone re-created IRL..
refer back to one of my posts earlier in this thread.. I posted like 10 or so images of the TOS bridge.
about sums it up for me as well
what he said, especially the typeII phasers

YAY, I'll buy you cookies if you make this happen!!!
