I know this has been asked before, but I am hoping the Dev's are looking into this and possibly planning some updates for it.
Any chance we will see Risa be a place of recreation such as including Dabo, Poker and any other newly developed games, as well as have a holodeck for Foundry missions to try out? I think this would make RIsa more attractive to go to. Make it more like Las Vegas, where you can play games. Perhaps develop a game based on Galartha, a cliff face that changes pitch while you climb it. Maybe there could even be a horga'hn trophy to display by completing it.
Also allow us to visit Suraya Bay in the day and at night, and see Risa's two moons (oops need to add another moon to the map as well as a second sun). One of the attractions could be to attend the Lohlunat, the Festival of the Moon. Perhaps we can shop for items we can share with other players (maybe these items can also be included in future crafting to add enhancements to weapons, personal shields, armor, etc.).
Maybe add the ability to sail on Temtibi Lagoon by adding a sailboat vehicle.
Are there any plans for enhancements to Risa? Anyone have other ideas of what they would like to see?
Could we put in some kind of 'cliff-diving' game (there are lots of nice cliffs and plenty of water below) where you can do high-dives and try to pull off crazy tricks? (Somersaults, twists, etc. -- think platform diving competition.)
What about a 'beach party' area that's a bit like a Hawaiian Luau? Maybe some fire-dancers/fire breathers as entertainment. Perhaps your characters could even 'learn' how to do the dances/fire-breathing via some kind of interactive mini-game and it could become a new emote that would unlock for that character. (Hula dancing too, perhaps?)
It would also be really awesome, IMO, to develop the sea portion of the resort with some kind of SCUBA-diving or snorkeling area where you could swim around and see all sorts of neat and colorful local sea-life. Maybe have some fishing boats? Ski boats and a water-skiing mini-game? Surfing? Sailboading? Parasailing? So many things I could think of for a tropical beach resort style vacation.

This ^^ then... give us a mission that takes place in the depths on the ocean on some water planet :P *androids need to sink to the bottem*
Let's have a horgh'an seller and some amazing looking scantily clad NPCs offering jamaharon.
I'd love to have a horgh'an for my captain's quarters. When entertaining, perhaps I may offer my guest jamaharon. ... erhm nvm ...
There's some good ideas floating around here. I love the mini-game unlocking special emotes idea. I'd like to learn how to hula, or to play with fire. I like the cliff diving too. I already find it wildly entertaining to jump off some of those cliffs. Rock climbing as a minigame is a must ... but i'd also like some anti-grav boots (but that's a topic for a different thread). I would even mind a scuba minigame where you catch your dinner, maybe? It would require adding coral reefs and fish to the water, which would only enhance Risa.
I recall an episode of Enterprise, where tucker and malcolm went to a night club and ended up getting mugged and tied up in a basement. I think either Risa should be expanded to include some urban activites, such as gambling, shopping, dancing, ect... Or make a second destination on the planet that we can beam down to that is much more urban in nature. This will surely help enhance Risa's reputation as a vacation hotspot.
Along the same lines, maybe have an optional mission or minigame where we get pulled into a little adventure. Let's see ... Picard had his time travelers. Worf had the isolationist group. Archer had a spy trying to extract information from him. and, let's not forget that Miles O'Brien who never even made it to Risa was captured by Cardassians. these rare mission don't have to be available all the time, but they could be given out by random NPC's at random intervals.
Oh, yah. this would be a good place to be asked to beam down with one boff to keep you company or to be your wing man.
I don't see the Dev's putting in any "R" rated stuff, but the other ideas here are great! I could see it being a focal point for every game developed plus some. I too would like to see some missions developed that we can play here. Perhaps a mission for Sector 31 where we have to make a choice which path we choose similar to the Drake mission in Cardassian space. I would love to hear what the Dev's say and if they at least have any plans on the drawing board.
It would also be really awesome, IMO, to develop the sea portion of the resort with some kind of SCUBA-diving or snorkeling area where you could swim around and see all sorts of neat and colorful local sea-life.
i was just going to suggest this. Great idea. I'd love to be able to scuba dive. I don't know how much effort it would take tho to develop the ability to swim underwater when we can't even sit in chairs yet.
If you watch Risa in any of the shows including TNG and Enterprise, there are cities lots of entertainment inside and chateaus on the beach - and when you go to Risa in the game its a... barren beach. Boring...
