    Brandon, any way we can enlarge the pictures and concept arts shown in the blogs please?

    I really hope we are getting the Nemesis Uniform. Otherwise, nice to see what's to come.

    hooray love it...

    but... you guys could at least have waited with teasing more C-Store stuff that isn't in the Legacy Pack until you were done selling the Legacy Pack.

    hooray helmets!

    Given that the Romulans won't be getting their own version of the MACO/HG gear, would it be possible to do a Romulan STF "Oufit Pack" - as it were - so that they can have something to distinguish themselves?

    That is something I would like them to do as well. :cool:

    The little I have seen of it it looks great.

    .. Just one note. WHY SO SHORT DRESSES!!! Wish you could adjust the skirt lengths. A girl like me don't want to be showing to much. LOL..

    The hairstyles on the concept art are lovely.

    Can we have anything like that for the romulans please?

    Also, can we get this hair enabled for romulans ?

    They got pigtails, ponytails, so why not shoulder long straight hair?

    I co-sign this.

    I would also like to see braided hair for females. Really missing this.

    I'm not sure which at this time, but I'm told more hairstyles are coming. :)

    Cheers,

    Brandon =/\=

    Wish I could like this post or plus it. :)

    Those skirts are not short enough....one thing i remember from The Enterprise incident is the Romulan commander skirt was uber short when she got up from that bed. :P



    Those helmets explain the Romulan/Vulcan bowl haircut


    Please tell me I can use that on the Fed/KDF BO example android and Borg BO... so I can cover their ears and forehead....it worked for Gene


    awesome

    I mean this in the nicest possible way.

    But how do you go from those drawings and concepts, which are amazing in detail and end up with what is in game? which is good, just not as good. equaling disappointment...

    So annoying to see concept art, and then the final product, not just in STO but in every aspect of life. (especially nerdy stuff, games,cars etc)

    Is it a special section of hell people go to to not allow such amazing things to come to fruition?

    I hope we'll see the TNG and Nemesis uniforms available as options somewhere.

    I also get the impression that a lot of the Romulans are supposedly scattered throughout space, in rag tag groups. Based on the Path to 2409 (more than 20 years after Hobus and the destruction of Romulus) things aren't that bad, really. It seems like the story we're going to be told should take place in the early 2390s, not more than two decades after Romulus was destroyed.

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."

    According to "Mine Enemy", only the rich and the military have much of a place in Sela's Empire. The majority of the Romulan survivors live in poverty.

    The problem I have with this article is

    1) It assumes that ALL Romulans lived on Romulas and are "refugees"

    2) It doesnt take into account that its been 20 years and we have thing like RELICATORS


    One issue I have on test is that the early costumes make us all into migrant lettuce farmers.

    Regardless of the story we are forced to follow, my Romulan is from a big city and attended the Military acadamy. I dont farm and I dont wear rags.

    But other than that the costumes I have played with on test are pretty cool. About the only thing that makes me feel Romulan after being forced to help the misquided Republic than throws out 1000s of years of our culture and then being forced to me a MINOR race in either the Fed or KDF.

    Its very sad to me what you guys have done to the Romulans. Other than the costumes its like you have gone out of yoru way to strip them of any Identity. Its like playing SWTOR and having the Sith run around helping people in need.

    I'm going to start posting this in every thread I see someone blasting Cryptic for destroying the legacy of the Romulans. It's not Cryptics fault! Cryptic is doing the best they can with the travesty that JJ Abrams did with that Star Trek in name only movie. Had JJ not blown up Romulus then we would have a markedly different storyline from launch and we would now be waiting for the release of a true Romulan faction.

    So don't blame Cryptic. Blame JJ and blame that stupid movie of his.

    I'm going to start posting after posts like that, pointing out the idea that JJ did more damage to Trek than Brannon Braga is probably the worst theory anyone has had on the internet in the 21st century.

    I'll give you this, unlike Brannon's TRIBBLE, at least the JJ's movie was entertaining! Not great Trek, but still a good movie in it's own right. But anyway, JJ ruined the Romulans, not Cryptic.

    "Not great Trek"? Then what is?

    But the gloves look awesome

    I especially like the TOS uniforms. Very good job! But please don't make those "bandanas" flattering in a non existing wind. That's what keeps me from using any costume with a cape or long belt so far.
