Klingon Costume Suggestion

edited April 2014 in Klingon Discussion
We all know costumes for Klingons is a poor selection,in the way of Z store.all they have is the Academy outfit. there are a few outfits for females that come to mind to maybe add to the store.K'Ehleyr,Worfs mate wore three outfits that would work well.

Another female outfit that might be a little harder to do was worn by the Klingon female Riker conjured up when he had the Q powers.

I'm sure there are a few others that could be found,but those are my suggestions to get the Targ running

    +1. Signed.

    The KDF really needs more C-Store outfit packs, our selection of outfits that we can purchase from the C-Store and use across all our KDF chars is very limited. There are many canon Klingon outfits from the shows that haven't made their way in the game yet and that's a pitty.

    I like the outfits you presented here, they're more feminine and dare I say - sexier looking from what is availible for KDF females. (not counting the Orion outfits limited to Orions) And if we go by the examples of TOS and the Klingon females of that era, looking good, feminine and sexy was also something Klingon females practiced.

    KDF still needs more in what can be worn.


    (And put the full colour palette in. . .)

    ANYTHING will be fine at this point.
    I would suggest a ninja-type set like in Batman Begins...with the armorless version Liam wears as an option.

    Also, if it's not too sexist of me, a vampire huntress-esque costume like Paine's for our ladies.

    Problem is we don't see many Klingon civilians, the KDF being military tend to be uniform.

    I mean there was that female Officer in Day of the Dove., the Lursa and B'tor boob window, and Sirellia form Dax wedding.

    I think there was also a female Klingon scientist from a TNG episode. Those are few and far between. I suppose you can have the Undiscovered country costumes...

    Klinks don't have much clothing representation. Maybe a universal Dabo girl outfit?

    Eh, I'd personally be more then satisfied if they just brought all the canon KDF outfits seen on the shows to STO. There are at least 10 different canon costumes that get posted and mentioned repeatedly on the forum, that are not availible for us players in the game yet.

    Wow!
    these look amazing!

    By the way... I just saw a video on youtube of a guy showing the new kit visuals as costume pieces on Tribble, ALSO AVAILABLE TO THE KDF!!!
    That is like one of the most important things I've waited FOREVER for Cryptic to add to the game, as I was soooooooo pissed with the unbalance of features btween the 2 factions!

    Well that is great, awsome news if that's going to hit Holodeck!! But... have I missed something or the news has gone pretty much unnoticed? That would be a shame, I think something like this should hit the website with full on article, photos etc!
    (Obviously to be honest I would have been more hyped if they made specific variants to kit and armour visuals for KDF and Roms but I guess they just don't have time for that now. Fair enough).

    The funny thing is that there is only a single canon Klingon uniform in the game, and that's the TOS tunic. All the other uniforms are Cryptic designs. Sure, the "Fur sleeves" and "Standard issue" try to look like the TMP/TNG uniforms we saw, but they really don't. And even of the uniforms Cryptic created, we (the players) can only choose a small fraction of assets. Some pieces of uniform are inexplicably for females only ("Decorated" shoulder guards for instance) although we see NPCs of both genders wear them. Tons of shoulder options, sashes, gloves are missing, the bortaS-uniform we can purchase in the fleet shop is a bad joke as it comes with NOTHING besides top, bottom, boots and gloves.

    Further, a lot of uniform options are bugged. To this day some colours on female toons and boffs are still linked together for some reason, meaning you change one colour in the "top" option you change colours EVERYWHERE. Females can for some reason use the KHG top, but nothing else.

    And don't get me started on non-klingon uniforms. I know there are a few options for Orion and Gorn, but all those Gorn, Orions, Nausicaans in klingon uniforms, what gives?

    The KDF faction is terribly worked out and doesn't make sense most of the time. But it still feels "better" for some reason :D But seriously, the state of KDF visuals is a shameful display.

    Nope :D.

    I detailed this in another thread, but: It's the wrong material, missing the horizontal creases, purple colour option, rank pins from the collar, the boots are missing, there is no TAS skirt or TOS dress option, the baldric is on the wrong shoulder.

    You do realise that asking for more kdf clothing, is the equivalent to walking up to a wall an saying " oh hello mr wall mind if I headbutt you repeatedly " whilst a sign on the wall state's " to get nowhere please headbutt wall ". Please for the love of Q give us new kdf clothing! Please cryptic!!!!...... Oh look there's a sign on this wall.

    Klingon "uniforms" are a whole lot more diverse when you actually bother to look.
    And unlike Starfleet even people on the same ship can look different.

    On the off chance Cryptic is reading here ( :D ). Any chance you could add these? It'd be FREE for you :P.

    More C-Store and just more outfits in general. Plus some of the race specific TRIBBLE needs to drop. The Nausicans and Orions have some cool outfits[male version mind you for orion, though who doesn't like watching their orion run around in next to nothing? Anyhoo I'd like those speciifc costumes to be open to all KDF. It's silly we can't mix and match. Also the meceenary outfit, I'd like that moved from off duty to on duty.

    Or better yet! GET RID OF THE WHOLE OFF AND ON DUTY!!!

    And furthermore! Let us set the basic outfits for our damn crews! It irks me to no end on any faction to have my CO and her BOFFS wearing 1 thing and the crew is wearing something completely different!

    I'd also like to see NON faction specific C-Store outfits usable, and mix 'n' matchable, with the other KDF species (Seven of Nine's boots on an Orion or Klingon?)

    PLUS!!! The "Warriors Skirt" Lobi item, able to be used on other species ...

    ever since 'Sphere of Influence'.

    have not been able to change Klingon Females costume.

    pointless to spend any more money on this game.

    seriously, considering deleting characters and eventually uninstalling the game.

    good luck

    there are many who are dealing with the same issue.

    guessing it's 'their install' as well?

    not going to reinstall 'Again' and... fight with ARC trying to install.

    no longer have that much love for the game anymore.

    No Thanks, enjoy your game
