    Foundry question:
    Can you add 'patrol' options to neutral mobs please ? Reskinning a battleship to a freighter just to be able to get it to follow waypoints isn't a reasonable option if I need the freighter to fight back against attack.

    When will we see ways to retrait/change career or gender ?
    when will we see a better UI version (less red on kdf side)?
    when will we see accolades as steam achievements ?

    Fleet starbase questions:
    • Fleet Mark grind is more annoying than any other 'ingredient' for fleet projects. Could there be a boost to the Officer of the Watch daily since unlike the Foundry Investigate Officer Reports daily this is 1) wholly designed by the dev team, 2) rewards no dilithium, 3) is only for fleet members, 4) encourages people to visit their fleet holdings (and maybe make people feel easier about paying 200,000 dilithium for those weekly special projects).
    • Are there ways we'll be able to search for fleets based on factors like starbase level, number of members, and users active within a given period of time?
    • Are there any plans to make it so everyone in the fleet can see what project is queued without being able to change it (read-only), since fleets want people to know what to be prepared for but may not want virtually anyone being able to change which projects come next?
    • Can we get the name of our starbase to appear when doing missions like Starbase Blockade, Fleet Alert, etc. or for it to have an object name in the map instance when visiting the system in the Eta Eridani block?

    The "solution" to the fleet mark grind is recruiting strangers to pillage and grief you. :rolleyes:

    Will we ever be able to display our fleet logo at our starbase? Wether in form of Murals, Holos or banners? Same question about the uniforms of the starbase staff - will we ever be able to enforce the wearing of our fleet uniforms for those staff crew running around?

    Regards

    What happened to the Borg modified space weapons we used to be able to get from the Omega store? Their are ground weapons in the Omega Reputation and Ground and Space weapons in the Romulan Reputation, but no space weapons...


    What's up with the Temporal ships(Wells Class) NPCs appearing at random in the Azure Nebula and Vault: Ensnared missions? It's cool fighting along side them, but it would be nice to know a little more about why they are there.


    Will the Breen Space set or maybe even the Jem'hadar Space set give any special bonuses to the New Breen Warship?


    Will the Breen Warship have a unique Bridge/Interior?


    Any hints or Teasers on how the "Featured episodes will be coming back in a big way" and or what they may be focused on?


    Anything you can say about the upcoming Andorian ship?


    I love New Romulus and its sector block.:) I love Q's Winter Wonderland.:P Great work STO team.;) Thank you for all you hard work and happy holidays.:D

    Are we ever going to see the retrait tokens we've been asking for since launch?

    And whatever happened to this:
    Special Task Force: Children of Khan

    Amar Singh escapes from Federation custody, and he and an underground group of Augments steal the U.S.S. Asgard and race toward the remains of the Mutara Nebula. Can you stop them before they start a new Eugenics War?
    Fight a fleet assembled by Princep Khan and his followers.
    Beam onto the Asgard, and battle through its corridors to save civilians and crew.
    Confront the Princep. Can you deal with his transporter tricks?
    Save the divided Asgard and give the saucer section a chance to escape!
    All the toys you can't afford.

    Any chance for more variety on melee weapons?

    Any chance for more melee weapons selections form current vendors/rep rewards?

    Any chance for customizable kits?

    Any chance for more space/ground sets?

    Any chance for a toggleable threat generating/reducing skill?

    Are there any plans for the player to have the ability to upgrade the current Breen Absolute Zero Set, Jem'Hadar Space Set, and Assimilated Borg Tech Set from Mk XI to Mk XII?

    Why didn't we get the blue/red nanopulse weapons?

    Vault social zone. Can we have it? :)

    Infinite possibilities have implications that could not be completely understood if you turned this entire universe into a giant supercomputer.p3OEBPD6HU3QI.jpg

    okay things are slowly getting on the right track here but my question is Do you plan on trimming down the cost of Borg gear? its still quite high and I hope the intent is not to cause players to burn purchased zen to buy dillitium to buy Borg gear.

    I have two questions;

    1) Who is Benedict Cumberbatch playing in Star Trek into Darkness?

    and more seriously;

    2) Any hints or clues as to the theme and arrival date of the next lock box.

    1. Can you please fix the missing Account Bank access on the Belfast (Defiant style) bridges? All of the other bridges seem to have it.

    2. When will more Doff mission chains be released?

    3. Are there plans to increase the limit for doffs, inventory, bank slots, etc.?

    4. What is the status of the test-driving ships idea that has been previously mentioned?

    5. Is there a missing/broken accolade for killing all the captains in the Colony Invasion PvE action since all the captains are named and the other fleet mark events with named enemies have accolades?

    Will we ever see the return of the IDIC tribble? The tribble has a very nice buff with a full team, but it was only obtainable for one week almost nine months ago. As a result, very few characters have them.

    Would it be possible to restore the IDIC buff to bridge officers? When used by your player captain or by a bridge officer, the tribble used to affect the entire away team. A patch that took place during season six fixed a bug occurring when used with a full player character team, but disabled the effect on bridge officers.

    It's been a while since we heard from our mutual friend Franklin Drake. What's Section 31 up to these days?

    "Critics who say that the optimistic utopia Star Trek depicted is now outmoded forget the cultural context that gave birth to it: Star Trek was not a manifestation of optimism when optimism was easy. Star Trek declared a hope for a future that nobody stuck in the present could believe in. For all our struggles today, we haven’t outgrown the need for stories like Star Trek. We need tales of optimism, of heroes, of courage and goodness now as much as we’ve ever needed them."

    Thanks to everyone who submitted their questions for the December Ask Cryptic! I am going to ship these questions over to Dan so he can pull some of them out and respond. The answers will appear in an upcoming "Ask Cryptic" Web Feature that should be released before the end of the month!

    Cheers,

    Brandon =/\=
