When will STO begin receiving more quality of life updates and begin fixing longstanding issues that have plagued the game since launch?
When will the connectivity issues be addressed? When will the server timeouts stop? When will the random disconnects stop? When will map transitions be more smooth and more timely rather than erratic with randomly horrendous load times?
Can you shed some light on the Romulan main hub area? Will it work the same way as the Qo'nos and ESD work? Will it include any kind of Romulan Academy?
Would the team consider merging some sector blocks together to form more square shaped blocks, maybe 3x3 to shoot for in the future, though many blocks could be 3x2 or 2x3 now? Traveling across the narrow side of blocks makes Quantum Slipstream less valuable.
Also might you go through and clean up all the transitions, like Sirius to Regulus points you toward Alpha Centauri, and Iota Pavonis to Alpha Centauri points you back at Iota Pavonis. I like how Tau Dewa allows you to transition from sector.
It just feels to me that sector space travel can use some polish.
with the introduction of warp cores, will we see specialized warp cores available, examples- MACO/Honor Guard, Borg, Aegis warp cores added to the existing sets
We are the Borg, you will be assimilated, If we feel like it
Back in November's Ask Cryptic there was mention of a crafting update/reputation system being added, possibly in Season 9. Is this still on the drawing board, and if so, what might we see come out of a crafting revamp?
The universe has a wonderful sense of humor. The trick is learning how to take a joke.
it is possible with the new engine to make a ship like a Chimera Heavy Destroyer but instant the

and Please bigger inventory
at lease 100 shipsloth(38 is too small)
200 boffssloth (54 to small)
acountwide Doffroster would be nice (400 to small)
Will Romulans who have selected Federation allies and Romulans who have selected Klingon allies be able to join Teams together? If so, which allies (if any) would also be able to join the team?
Will there be any Elite team content similar (in challenge and reward) to Elite STFs added soon?
With the update of the trait system, will any races be gaining useful space traits? Abilities like Leadership and Efficient are great but limited currently to only a small handful of races.
What types of future ships will the community see for the Romulan republic? from what i see the basics are there for everyone to use, however, an example lacking would be something like carriers, i know Romulan ships do not have carriers for fighters and never saw this in star trek. Considering the balance and a more then likely question to come about this subject, i thought it prudent to ask now before everyone asks it on the forums.
T6 Miranda Hero Ship FTW. Been around since Dec 2010 on STO and bought LTS in Apr 2013 for STO.
Will we be able to customize the misc. crew members on our ship? I would like it to feel more unique on the inside, have them match my BOff uniforms, or make them all bajoran or something like that. This had been on the "to do list" awhile ago, but I haven't heard anything about it from the devs in months.
On a related note, will there be a way to make the NPCs on the fleet starbase wear the fleet uniform? (it seems appropriate that they would)
-Will there be a fed / kilingon rep to go alongside the rom rep?
My question: Why do people keep questioning this when there is already a Romulan Rep for Starfleet/KDF, and a Dev already explained that the Romulan Republic toons will simply get different projects/gear from it?
"Join Date: Jun 2012" Says Cryptic's "new" forum system. I've been here since a week before launch, but SOME stuff just didn't carry over through multiple system changes/updates. :rolleyes:
With previous mentions of extending social zones like Risa, is there any possibility of us seeing social events (mini-games) like the winter wonderland races or even space races (like we got to see in Star Trek Voyager) for us to enjoy with friends and fleet mates all year round?
-Will the Iconians be a reputation enemy faction? If so, will they appear after the Tholians, or will the Silent Enemy or some other faction preempt them?
-Event reputation, as of yet, has no tiers or tier-unlocked abilities. Will we see those in the future?
-Are Romulan ships as diversely stocked as the FED or (noticeably smaller) KDF ship selection, or are you relying on the faction alliance system to keep players interested?
-WHARS MAH SCIMITAHR???
Seriously though:
-Will we be able to fly a Scimitar as a Romulan?
-Will FEDs ever gain access to the Typhoon or Jupiter class ships?
-Will you allow single-NPC or fully-editable (as in strength/abilities) enemy groups in the Foundry?
-Will the Foundry Storyboard ever get an OR gate?
-Will the Foundry map editor ever get 3D preview capability?
Basically, can we get a dev to texture some flat blocks with some of the floor/ceiling textures that Cryptic has its library? We need them in the foundry, please.
Q: What kind of cloaking system will the Romulans have? Will they have the same system as the Klingons with battle cloak or will we by any chance get a Scimitar Cloak? :cool:
Q: Will there be any upcoming future for Foundry to disable ships instead of just destroying them?
Q: What resources do you use when you are making ships, interiors etc for different races? Do you use the series / movies for details and specs or do you have technical/manual owned by CBS or a Star Trek Guru?
Now that the UI has been given a once over, is there any chance to look at the buff/de-buff icons?
Some buffs are pointing up some down, borg shield neutralizer has a federation icon.
It's very confusing to a new person to know exactly what is effecting you.
With the recent stealing of Caspian Division's Federation and Klingon fleets; what, if any, plans being currently being discussed that would help protect fleets in the future and what sort of timescale could we expect to see such plans implemented?
You have said that Romulans will not have there own fleets in the upcoming expansion. But can we have the option to make a Fed or KDF fleet (of the respective faction one has joined)with the ability to toggle whether or not non-Romulans can join a fleet created by a Romulan? This would allow people to feel like the Romulans will have their own fleet even though it's the same fleet of the alliance they chose.
A lot of people have played only as the three characters they're originally given slots for characters and have large amounts of unrefined dilithium. I have one friend who has over a years worth of ore to refine. So how about every once in a while like quarterly or trimesterly refining everyones dilithium without a diminishing return, no matter how much they have? A little extra reward for investing time into your game.
.) For those of us with left over Lobi Crystals, is there going to be a way to transfer them to our upcoming Romulan character? Or any thoughts towards making Lobi account wide instead?
.) Any thoughts towards abolishing the class concepts (Tactical, Engineer, Science), and introducing a more open free form classless character development system, perhaps utilizing the reputation system?
.) Ship Tiers was talked about once, and how they complicate the introduction of new ships. Is anything going to change to either remove or change Ship Tiers?
.) Any developments towards making Captain max rank, it's still a often discussed topic.
.) What happened to the Armor Slot concept discussed here? Is it still happening?
.) Are there any plans to remove the Captain trained skills from player classes and open the BOFFs for a less rigid training system? Such as putting all the skills on the NPC trainers?
Lots of work has been put into the new expansion of STO by Cryptic and I know the PWE web team has recently added more functionality to the gateway; but is there any news when PWE will help bring us back the simple, but very much missed functionality of the working email notifications that we had before the STO web site and forums were transferred over the PWE?
Comments
Any more word on a possible Mac version of STO?
Cheers
will there be any good prizes besides just a tribble for the legacy or romulus test weekend?
u gonna expand on the ui any beyond what is already gonna be done to it?
is there gonna be a major sale of ships, master keys and zen happening all at the same time for once?
any upcoming events besides the winter event coming up for use with the event rep?
Will the Foundry receive any other updates post-LoR?
When will the connectivity issues be addressed? When will the server timeouts stop? When will the random disconnects stop? When will map transitions be more smooth and more timely rather than erratic with randomly horrendous load times?

Are there any plans for more appearance options for existing ships? Will the Oddesy or Bortas get the "Excelcisor" treatment?
What happened to the Department Head system for Bridge Officers\Duty Officers?
With the additional Reputation systems now can Fleet Mark and Reputation Mark Events be switched?

Will the Vesta get it's own unique bridge? For 5000 C-Points, the Odyessy, Bortasgu, and Andorian bundle all got their's. Seems only fair.

Conversion to Reputation Marks?

Free tacos?
My non-fleet characters are about to have more Fleet Marks thanks to the Crystalline Catastrophe.

Want cheap commodities? Yeah you do. Commodity Cheat Sheet (includes food and data samples)
Want to make the game better? Might I suggest this form
-Event reputation, as of yet, has no tiers or tier-unlocked abilities. Will we see those in the future?
