I was thinking about this after i got my Boff for Marauding4. I think it's the fact that it uses Federation costume options which are locked for KDF members. Does the Federation side Diplomacy Boff costume allow for editing?
Of course the fed diplomatic exchange officer is fully customizable with all options they have on the kdf side. So full Orion getup for Orions, Nausiccan armor for Nausiccans etc.
On my Diplomacy 4 feddie, I can dress up my Gorn BOff the same as I can on KDF side. Full KDF Gorn uniforms are available. I think I can even use the Veteran parts. I know I can use the c-store parts.
Somehow, I don't seem to have my Marauding 4 BOff on KDF side yet... hmm... I'll have to remember to try and claim them later.
That all said, I wonder... when we eventually see the whole "Make your First Officer a character" system, will it mean we could play the opposing faction BOff we get for Dip/Maraud some day? Because I'd love to play that Gorn on Fed side once in a while...
That would be an nice way of unlocking playable Reman, Breen, Dominion, Android, Liberated Borg, Borg, Photonic, and opposing faction characters...

Sadly I have seen posts of this nature a few times, (if i remember i did recall seeing one with a response 'its in the pipeline'... guess its been blocked for a while)
At the risk of being a cryingklink, (what am i saying we have no tearducts!) but if this problem was fed side... sigh
Would be nice if the transporters in the first city are fixed too. last I was on the homeworld the useless transporter officer couldnt get my destination right! And due to the game mechanics -I- couldnt get -HIS- destination right either; send him to Grethor where he belongs.
Back to the non-changable boffs, i think the problem is due to fed boffs only being allowed a uniform costume, but they are jammed in the civilian get up.. (although i have a lovely human male who appears to be wearing prison garb )
On a side note, very cross that federation can get (fed affiliated) klingon boffs leveling up.. Worf was the exception to the rule! >.<

I have a wierd bug..on my KDF Ferasan female, when I put on the Honor Guard set..her cleavage looks shaved..she is ment to be furry no? yet it looks like they forgot to add the fur..this is has irritated me for a while though..just looks wrong.
If I had a dollar for every time the 'KDF bug issue' was brought up...
It really isn't fair to us, the players who would rather play KDF, for them to favor the Feds. 103% of the klink population feels the same way. Getting table scraps and whatever free time the Dev.'s have left over at the end of the day, is really lame. What's the point of having two factions if one side is completely dominate? Give the players a chance to choose what side they want to play instead of forcing them to pick the one that always wins and has the most content.
Sure the Roddenberry universe revolves around Starfleet and the Hoomans, but seriously, why do you think there are a gillion alien species in Star Trek? Outside of Asia, there is no successful MMORPG without balanced, structured, and team related pvp. Fact. The easiest way to do this is making factions.
Freaking Cryptic Studios and Perfect World need to wake up and use what works. Who cares if you have to copy WoW a little bit to make a decent game? Every gaming company has this TRIBBLE mentality that they have reinvent the genre to attract players and avoid criticism.
There is no such thing as artistic and intellectual theft, just sampling. They need to fix these bugs before I go cryptic all over their perfect world.
My KDF Liberated Borg can't use all the clothing options available that other characers can let alone Boffs.
It falls in the same boat as not being able to customise the unique boffs (reman, breen etc).
I understand to a degree why taking the Breen out of the costume wouldn't work but the others should be customisable. That goes for both factions. Its just lazy and annoying.
Diplomacy boff for feds = kdf toon with kdf uniform
Maurading boff for KDF = fed toon with .. fed or kdf uniform..? The uniform that would strike me is the merenary.. but it more a dipliomatic thing? so maybe a fed in a diplomats uniform?
?.?

Hey what did you expect? KDF is treated like a red headed step child. Only thing is i'm pretty sure if they actually did something for KDF more would be willing to play KDF
The Emperor isn't please with Cryptic apparent lack of progress for the Empire. Lord Vader is on his way
Of course the fed diplomatic exchange officer is fully customizable with all options they have on the kdf side. So full Orion getup for Orions, Nausiccan armor for Nausiccans etc.
It would be funny if it was not such an old joke thats gone stale..............
The Honor Guard & Omega armour visuals work for the Marauding Boff.
But only from the character sheet, not at the tailor. Which means no customization of pieces or colours.
So if you want to see your Marauder boff without a helmet on you'll have to get the Mk XI armour.
Or go for Mk XII for full helmet and cape visuals.
*The Mk X armors offer no visual changes to the boff.*
You only need the armor piece. Not the weapon or shield.
Personaly I feel the Honor Guard Mk XI armor makes my Marauder Boff look at home in my crew. Brown with red lights, like a standard klingon setup.
I love the One-handed shotgun loading animation of the KDF rifle/grenade weapon but I'm miffed that my toons no longer show all the variuos costume options ingame.
'm waiting to see if its just this old PC I am on and if my newer one is not so hampered.

Ooooh... BURN...
Well-played sir.
sometimes the small bugs hurt as much as the major ones.
Somehow, I don't seem to have my Marauding 4 BOff on KDF side yet... hmm... I'll have to remember to try and claim them later.
That all said, I wonder... when we eventually see the whole "Make your First Officer a character" system, will it mean we could play the opposing faction BOff we get for Dip/Maraud some day? Because I'd love to play that Gorn on Fed side once in a while...
That would be an nice way of unlocking playable Reman, Breen, Dominion, Android, Liberated Borg, Borg, Photonic, and opposing faction characters...

From what I've been reading time and again you can't change anything about your Marauding BOFF...not even the tiniest thing.
Diplomacy boff for feds = kdf toon with kdf uniform
Maurading boff for KDF = fed toon with .. fed or kdf uniform..? The uniform that would strike me is the merenary.. but it more a dipliomatic thing? so maybe a fed in a diplomats uniform?
?.?
peace out!:cool:
Hey what did you expect? KDF is treated like a red headed step child. Only thing is i'm pretty sure if they actually did something for KDF more would be willing to play KDF
now:
is this a bug problem? do i have to report it?
do i have to reach the tier 5 so i can wear the above mentioned custom?
i already have the cape but supposedly with all optionals i would get the reinforced one...
can anyone tell me what is going on?
cheers
