    Wish we could modify the uniforms of our photonic bridge officers! :rolleyes:

    Nice work on modifying this good Doctor's uniform.

    By FAR my favorite character on my least favorite Star Trek series. Picardo was often the reason I made it through many a Voyager episode.

    The Doctor is probably the best character on Voyager.

    Any chance of us players getting access to customizable photonic bridge officers or being able to make photonic player characters (basically just the "flicker" effect all photonics have applied to a player model)?

    Of the characters on Voyager, The Doctor was always my favorite. Dry humor paired with a more... I don't know, thoughtful?... tone to the way he was written just made him stand out. It's too bad he never got that promotion to Emergency Command Hologram, though.

    I suppose an artificial lifeform capable of transferring between physical systems is immortal for all intents and purposes, so long as there is a physical system to transfer to... no need to sprint through the ranks when you have a few thousand years, right?

    I'm a huge fan of The Doctor and am entirely geeked to meet him online! If you get the chance to see him at a convention do it.

    A most welcome addition to the game, I think you will be hard pressed to find a player who doesn't like this news

    Am very excited that the Doc made it into STO. He and 7 are my fav chars of VOY. Model/Texture looks great and I can't wait to "hear" him and 7, too. Hmmm.. now we just need a Mission where the Doc meets EMH Mark II again ;) !!!

    Picardo is a fantastic actor, and was a great addition to Voyager. I'm really glad that he's making his way into the game and I can't wait to interact with the EMH. Hopefully Seven of Nine gets an updated look like everyone else here. Picardo is the only one who makes sense to not age, but at least he has an updated uniform.

    Thanks for getting this guy in the game.



    Would it be possible for The Dev team to post some videos of working with the Voyager crew during VO and character design?

    Hm, if the Doctor has a Starfleet commission now that he's recognized as a sentient, why doesn't he have rank pips on his uniform?

    This.

    Great to see Picardo back.

    Cryptic, you really NAILED his face and body, he looks just like he should. That expression makes me want to give him a big hug. :o

    This one time, I talked to Robert Picardo for like 5 seconds. The Doctor is definitely one of my favorite characters in all of Trekdom.

    But you know what I mean, right? If photonics and androids are recognized as sentients and therefor Federation citizens, they should have the ability to serve as Starfleet officers. That and it'd be neat to be the Emergency Command Hologram. :D

    Is it sad that when I saw the title of this thread I was thinking another DW crossover?
    I must say, though, I am really happy about this. The EMH is definitely my favorite character in Star Trek

    VERY important distinction, here.
    The Doctor and Data were recognized as sentients. NOT Photonics and Androids. All those EMH Mk. I's are still in slave labor.

    I wonder if they got Picardo to record the line "Trust me, I'm The Doctor" for use somewhere? Would be epic.

    When he starts giving speeches, be sure to declare a ship-wide Yellow Alert. And I hope you like opera. :rolleyes:
