So next week in Episode 20 of the Red Shirt Army Podcast we are pleased, lucky and honored to sit down with Daniel Stahl for an interview. Instead of us just asking our total nerd questions and rants, we thought we'd also turn this over to the community as well :)

Got a question, send it to us. redshirtarmy@gmail.com, or twitter.com/redshirtarmy or our forums at redshirtarmy.com Try to keep them brief, we'll be picking the top most interesting ones to use and credit given to those who ask.

    If we pose a Klingon question, what is the chances you will actually ask it? Just asking, not trying to be mean...

    I'm not sure how it is going down, but since I did make that big klingon thread I will try push a few klingon question. I can't guarantee anything because I don't know how it is going to work out, but I will try.

    Cohas,

    Here is my question and it might have a bit of teeth but it goes without asking. Dan seems to be able to handle these questions so he probably would not mind answering these:

    - It was stated that the C-Store would not offer game changing items. Yet we have Galaxy-X in the C-Store that has a cloak (on a Fed ship) and Laser Lance. How could this be classifed as not game changing?
    - C-Store wise, why is about half the ships and races , in total, are available only via the C-Store?
    - When will items found in the C-Store be available in-game or an alternative route like the Gal-X? And how would such a mechanism work?
    - When will Kerrat be fixed? The bugs there have existed since beta.
    - Crush the rumor - IS or IS NOT Star Trek Online working on plans, validating plans, have plans, or implementing plans to go Free 2 Play?
    - What is the Secret Project in August?

    lol, yes we take Klingon questions too. I actually like Klingons I just dislike the immense grind to level one in STO. Klingon questions are definitely welcome.

    -How do you plan to incorporate another faction in the game when one of the two primary factions playerbases feels you never completed or pay attention to them?
    -Is the House system going to be re-developed to have any meaning to a Klingon player or has this concept been canceled internally?
    -How do you plan to keep Klingon players subscribing with the lack of immersion and no new pvp maps?
    -http://www.startrekonline.com/node/1275 - What happened to all the promised content in this "Ask Cryptic" series?
    -Where are the refits for the Klingons, or even the customizations for the ships already created?
    -Why are we not seeing new models for Klingons on the C-Store?

    you are welcome.

    anyone else. maybe some UGC questions, or federation questions?
  • Archived PostArchived Post Member Posts: 2,264,498 Arc User
    edited July 2010
    I know I asked before but here are some more I have:

    - How will UGC be implemented in the game?
    - When UGC is implemented, could any of it be added as addtioanl content if it is deemed high quality and professional grade?
    - How will UGS work? Holodeck or actually in game missions / encounters?

    For Klingons:

    - What is your 'mission statement' / 'ideal image' of the Klingons? In other words, if completely fleshed out, what would the Klingons be in your mind?
    - Will Klingons be able to declare alliance ot a particular house (i.e. affiliated with Duras or Martok)?
    - Will you implement a meaningful 'house' system with canonical houses of the Klingon Empire?
    - What sets a Klingon apart from a Federation Klingon?
    - Will we be able to defect to the other faction (i.e. go rogue as a starfleet captain and join the Klingons or a Klingon that believes in peace joins the Federation)?
    - Can we wage a Gorn Rebellion? Maybe allow Players to form the Free Gorn Alliance?

    Gameplay:
    - Can we as players, en masse, have a tangible impact on the future of the game?
    - Could we have a weekly sector battle? Have a tangible reward to the faction that wins based on members (i.e. would take the wins the divide by the character count of that faction to determine the highest winning stats). Winning would result in some benefit or bonus normally not available.
    - Will you implement a non-federation neutral type faction based on trade?


    Probably got more but don't want to dominate :)

    Heres a question:

    Has Cryptic changed its position about offering NON-Cosmetic items on the C-Store ?

    Followup:
    If so, WHY ?

    It not, how do you justify the addition of the Galaxy-X and proposed Excelsior / Nebula to the C-Store with their ADDITIONAL functionality ?
