    Devs why do we have to wait until May for the new stuff????Its a very long slow wait,new stuff needed now.

    Come on children....be patient and show some maturity. Did youi ever hear the saying "great things happen to those who wait" Patient might be a virtue on our generation but some would rather have DEVs do it right than launching something half-a##ed. Even there, I'm sure there will be more bugs to deal with :D

    Because it's not ready. They must be finalizing some last features, debugging, trying to find balance for the new content, etc.

    Grow up and please learn patience. :)

    I have a feeling they have been working secretly on the Romulan faction for years. We saw snippets of warbird concept art some time ago. And they made Romulan character assets when they did the Romulan featured episodes. Alot of the work is probably done already. Hopefully they release it on tribble, let us test it before it goes live.

    Personally, I believe she's a Founder.

    How else could she have survived that fall...?

    *smells coming from Cryptic kitchen"

    It's gotta finish cooking... and the menu is still at the printers.. and some of the dishes might not turn out right..

    Testing, polishing, and oh yea.. generating "Buzz"

    I hate waiting too.. Don't matter. Still gotta wait.

    Some things may get changed twixt now and late may.

    So come May, if all was successful, there will be an influx of new players alongside everyone else rolling new Romulan toons. My main concern right now is how the servers will bare the brunt of this activity when it all goes live. They melted during the anniversary and that event didn't have the fanfare this expansion is getting.

    Umm, the 3rd year Anniversary Event got quite a lot of fanfare (about a month's worth) leading up to it - and the Devs even said when it went Live that they got a WAY larger response (in terms of players logging in to experience it) then they expected. Still this is an expansion with a new faction many have been waiting for; and an indication that the KDF faction will also/finally become a 'full' faction <--- This of course is one of the BIG questions regarding the new Expansion -- but yeah, I think we can expect a bigger turnout, and a lot of actual new accounts being made come May 21, 2013.

    It'll probably go as smooth as most other MMO launches (IE maybe by the 3rd day, all the really major issues will be either identified, triaged or fixed - and they'll have a handle on any server load issues.) If it goes better than that, great, but I'm expecting what I've experienced on evry other MMO I'v e played on the day of a large expansion launch.:D

    In Cryptic's case, doing it later doesn't necessarily mean it will be done right either. :P

    they Renamed Season 8 into Legacy of Romulus when it became more of an Expansion than a Season update. the next seaspn out will become Season 8.

    Speaking of which, I really wish they would stop with the TV lingo. The word "season' just never worked well with me. They should use something more Trek(ish) or scientific sounding. Eg; 'environmental enhancement update', 'content augmentation pack', 'player enrichment release', 'interactive experience improvement' -etc...

    It is a tiny point which is not very big or sharp but a point nonetheless. :)
    Calling it an update, which is what it is, would work fine. But they think 'season' is cutesy, I guess. Just like some roleplayers think 'season' is somehow more immersive when discussing levels.

    All I can say is... REALLY?

    Don't you think it would be better for them to finish it first?

    I'd rather wait and have something done right, than get it now and full of bugs.

    Who said you had to wait until May? Play it on the test server in a couple weeks when they put it up there. Experience the bugs BEFORE they go live!

    I'm in no rush. I'd rather they take the time to smooth out some of the bugs first.

    See what I did there? Optimism. We can always wish.

    Do you mind a little advice? Starfleet captains are like children. They want everything right now and they want it their way. But the secret is to give them only what they need, not what they want.

    amen but add KDF tissue carriers as well to that statement

    There's probably a great deal of unrelated conventions and TRIBBLE about that "needs" to be done before any work on the actual content is attempted.

    They probably want to write down all the stuff they mean to nerf before the month of May is over.

    I just hope when it goes to holodeck, there aren't any major flaws with it like the last couple seasons. :(

    Only by doing the work of tomorrow yesterday, can all these pieces be put into play. They need more Trek tech to avoid a train wreck!

    (That last bit came out a bit harsh, it is a bit hard to make it rhyme otherwise. ;))

    OP this gives you two months to enjoy the anticipation. Just remember Spock's wise words:

    "After a time, you may find that having is not so pleasing a thing, after all, as wanting. It is not logical, but it is often true. "

    I think I remember Scotty saying this to someone in an episode...STNG: Relics maybe?

    The old adage 'do you want it done now or do you want it done right' seems appropriate here.

    Well normally that phrase would apply..however, we are talking about Cryptic..when is the last time they released something that was not broke or bugged out and never got fixed?

    I do not think a longer wait is going to change that statistic with this update.
