So are we ever gonna have a Dominion/True-Way playable faction?

Because I don't know how much longer I can wait to fly a Jem'Hadar Battleship.
Re-release the Dominion Lock Box or something!

if i'm right it may be a sign they are working on new Dominion/True-Way content.
after all after seeing Dominion worlds in Sphere of Influence shouldn't we perhaps at least go tell them the Iconians are eyeing up their territory as well as our own ?
A playable RSE was also popular enough.
They've said, pretty much, no playable bad guys ever and that any factions will be ones that can team with the existing ones as much as possible.
The True Way seems very unlikely. The Dominion is remotely possible but mechanically tricky and would not be enemies of the Federation/Klingons. The Cardassians as a friendly ally is more likely.
Even the current "bad guys", the Klingons, they seems to be ending their bad streak soon, in a recent podcast one of the devs said that at the end of the recent featured episode, Sphere of Influence, there's that moment between Worf and Shon, where Shon says that he really wished they could have had that talk, and Worf replies in kind, that's apparently an indicator of things to come, so this Federation-Klingon War might be ending soon.
It is possible we'll one day get a Dominion Faction, though they'd have to seriously work up a suitable story which ... well, judging by some of their more recent story telling, I'm not holding my breath on. What we don't want is a Federation - Dominion War Phase II. The Dominion would need to come into play as the good guys (or at least, equal to the Klingons). A potential ally against the Iconians? Who knows.
How about a mini-faction/campaign?
"The Big Three" is enough to develop and improve upon.
Yep. Like making "The Big Two Point Five" into a legitimate "Big Three."
No more half-factions, and make the current one a real full faction.
Unfortunately, Cryptic have already shot themselves in the foot pretty hard with the lockboxes and JHAS. Cardassians.. they could probably get away with discontinuing the Cardassian Lockbox(converting existing ones into 'choose a lockbox' packs). People who already have their Galors would keep them, but there'd be no new ones entering circulation(aside from actual Cardassian ones).
