Read the full blog here

We will be streaming live this Saturday afternoon to bring you a preview unlike any other. We will be delving deep into a never before explored area to discover an old menace come back to haunt the combined forces of Starfleet, the Klingon Defense Force and the Romulan Republic.

CaptainSmirk and LaughingTrendy will be bringing you an exclusive look at one of our latest additions to the STO PvE Queued Events, that for the time being, must remain REDACTED for your own protection. An Elite group of Allied Personnel must scope out the area before we allow a full disclosure.

We will be relying on the bravest of Captains from across the Alpha and Beta Quadrants to explore this area with us on Saturday, but bring your best ground gear. You’ll need it. We will be exploring on the Tribble Test Server once again for this preview, so make sure to log in and dress in your finest uniforms to show off your Captains on our TwitchTV channel.

    Hmm, another queue on tap for testing this week, and based on the Ops Report, probably the Spec Trees as well? This should be interesting.

    No we have actually seen someone sit on a toilet in Trek.

    (movie 5, brig scene, pops out of the wall. He just sat on it with the lid down)
    Everywhere I look, people are screaming about how bad Cryptic is.
    What's my position?
    That people should know what they're screaming about!

    Smirk, I will sell my soul for that Klingon Mat'Ha-class Raptor. Dunno about the rest of the pack, but I WANT THAT RAPTOR SO MUCH.

    Please extend my most heartfelt and sincere thanks to whoever designed it.

    Also, you can count on me at the livestream. I shall wear my very best imitation bat'leth and Klingon baldric.

    Glad to hear the Raptor is getting such rave reviews! We hope to hear from more Klingon warriors about how they feel about the ship!

    We're going bug hunting on Saturday then?

    Edit: Like the looks of the new Romulan BCH and the Guardian is growing on me (but those bridge stations...hoo boy. Give me a 4th tac slot on the fleet version and I'm sold. Turn rate's nothing an RCS console won't fix).

    There's a thread about down in the KDF fleetyards. Even the hardcore grognards are wetting themselves in glee.

    I've never even seen that ship in action and I already want it.

    Klingon warriors would tell you they have to feel the ship first before they can tell you how they feel about it.

    And I would need better (larger) pics in the blogs.
    TOIVA, Toi Vaxx, Toia Vix, Toveg, T'vritha, To Vrax: Bring in the Allegiance class.
    Toi'Va, Ti'vath, Toivia, Ty'Vris, Tia Vex, Toi'Virth: Add Tier 6 KDF Carrier and Raider.
    Tae'Va, T'Vaya, To'Var, Tevra, T'Vira, To'Vrak: Give us Asylums for Romulans.

    Don't make ARC mandatory! Keep it optional only!

    Its great we will finally be getting our first 5 tactical console ship and that it will have 5 for weapons too. Like some have said though this ship should have a battle cloak and to add to that will make our raptor that has a battle cloak currently as well as birds of prey feel less under powered compared to romulans if we have some kind of balance between them as far as damage since we can't get infiltrator for our cloak ambush and as well the only way to reduce the battle cloak cd is with embassy romulans. I could see it being more productive though if those issues were handled with this expansion.

    I would have been happy just to have a 5 tact console ship but being that cloaking has a bigger emphasis according to all that we have heard about so far I do believe these issues need to be addressed before launch/make the expansion more attractive to the Klingon Warriors :).

    Edit: We gotta get as much as we can whenever a ship is released just tbh here lol. We don't know how long it'll be until we are behind the curve again when it comes to something like the mold that was created with the kumari, romulan ships, etc.

    Here is a Reveal... players will not be able to participate in this queued event if they have not completed Dragon's Deceit which is currently bugged in Holes and Corners (see Tribble Bugs and General Discussion).

    Anyone with Twitch can watch the stream, but only those with access to Tribble (and unlocked queue) can play mission with Smirk.


    Emphasis: All Twitch viewers will be eligible to win prizes and get the pre-set population goal award. Just be on Twitch during the livestream for the giveaways.

    And you can't actually do that, because the requisite mission is bugged.

    In other words, you can't "join in the fun" at all.
