I am disappoint (character selection screen)

There is a change to the character selection screen.

A Klingon vessel's Victories have been replaced by less awesome-sounding Battle Records. A Romulan vessel's Exploits have been replaced by a less awesome-sounding Legacy.

I want my Exploits and Victories back!

I also still want to see my ship rather than my shuttle or one of my captain's other outfits. Visual effects from equipped items (such as my Assimilated Module and Jem'Hadar Space Set) are still an un-implemented must.

Showing my Engineers crouched next to a turret rather than for no apparent reason might also be nice.

I haven't checked to see whether what outfit my captain is actually wearing matters. I'm betting against it.

Such seemingly simple bugs. Can't we get these fixed?

    also, when you launch a character...regardless of faction they all use Federation transporter effects...which is lame when I launch my Romulan and I hear is a Fed transporter.

    The character select screen also has issues with universal boff slots and shuttles - my Vesta piloting Sci has two copies of the same Tac officer beside her.

    I kinda assume the char select screen is still somewhat WIP and they're gonna fine-tune out the kinks.

    Yeah, I liked the original "titles" myself.

    'Legacy' makes more sense than 'Exploits', but 'Victories' was better for Klingons.

    Bring back Victories

    1) Bring back victories! All battle records are victories anyway. HISTORY IS WRITTEN BY THE VICTORS! Q'APLA!

    2) Exploits was great. Don't let your, so far awesome, expansion be infected by the Batman syndrome. No need for batarangs, batcopters, batcuffs, shark-repellent bat spray etc. We don't need legacy ships with legacy disruptors and legacy whose legacy the expansion Legacy of Romulus is about.

    Agreed. D: Victories and Exploits were so much cooler sounding than Battle Record and Legacy. Bring the previous title screen wording back!

    Definition of EXPLOIT
    : deed, act; especially : a notable or heroic act



    Exploits made perfect sense, see!

    I can live with Legacy over Exploits if they want to have a "Hey, he said the title!" kind of moment, but the new Klingon tagline is just awkward.

    I prefer legacy to exploits. in fact i pretty much hated exploits.

    victories sounded much better. Maybe battle report was mentioned a few times, i dont know, but id like to see victories back.

    For KDF it should be


    These are the Songs of the I.K.S <insert ship name>




    Because how I play, I'd expect an entire opera based on my KDF Character.

    Exploits and victories were fine. Why fix that is not broken?

    Rather, get the Valdore a more concept art like model :D
    Let us wear Swimsuits on Foundry maps or bridges please! I would pay zen for that.

    I have no idea. My main character is still surrounded by three copies of his science officer in the character selection screen. I've tried everything, even re-transferring the character. But that won't get fixed......

    None of these issues are resolved, I still want my Exploits and Victories back, and my bridge officers are now AWOL.

    Well, KDF is now better than battle records. Maybe even more Klingon than Victories. But I would still prefer the victories over the glorious battles.:D

    At least you don't have the pants of a BOFF instead of a ship, as I have. I deleted the character on Tribble, needed the slot for a romulan. Whish I made a screenshot.

    Actually, I do. Well, my Captain, not a Boff. It's not really just the pants, though, it's the whole costume. Most of it's just off-screen. Re-transfer the character, the error might still be there.

    Glorious battles is better than battle records, but I still want victories or a song. Maybe let us fill in our own blank?

    These are the luxury cruises of the SS AllYourMoney, for example.

    Shuttle-bug may have been resolved.

    Going to Echo the sentiments about "Victories". It's a very Klingon mannerism and ties in with the KDF theme of conquest. I confess I did frown when I saw the far less.. engaging.. 'Battle Records".

    Conversely, I don't mind swap to "Legacy". It matches well with the theme of the Romulan Republic.

    I thought Victories for Klingons, sounded perfect for them.
