What happened to Nimbus III?

The planet has apparently changed in appearance. There's oceans and tropical biomes on Nimbus III now? I thought this planet was supposed to be a desert.

What happened there? :P

    Is this some scheme to try and get me to fly all the way to Nimbus III? :)
    STO is about my Liberated Borg Federation Captain with his Breen 1st Officer, Jem'Hadar Tactical Officer, Liberated Borg Engineering Officer, Android Ops Officer, Photonic Science Officer, Gorn Science Officer, and Reman Medical Officer jumping into their Jem'Hadar Carrier and flying off to do missions for the new Romulan Empire. But for some players allowing a T5 Connie to be used breaks the canon in the game.

    Did you know that if you type "gullible" in the chat window the game engine will give you 1 iconian rep mark? It's a little easter egg put in by the devs.

    If you delete your system32 folder it corrupts the STO directory and flags your account to receive all lockbox ships for free.

    i just did my own checking, and...he's right; apparently they screwed up the planet model
    Like special weapons from other Star Trek games? Wondering if they can be replicated in STO even a little bit? Check this out: https://forum.arcgames.com/startrekonline/discussion/1262277/a-mostly-comprehensive-guide-to-star-trek-videogame-special-weapons-and-their-sto-equivalents

    I should clarify that the planet model in Nimbus system space has changed. The ground map is still the same. :P

    Terraforming?

    Actually it would make sense. Putting aside any issues with Final Frontier for the moment, Nimbus III was the 'Planet of Galactic Peace', a thing that the UFP, Klingon Empire and Romulan Star Empire agreed to have it be a place of neutrality and peace, including cooperation and terraforming the place.

    Now of course we know what happened to it after that. But I don't think it would be too far-fetched for someone from all three powers now to look at it and say, 'Hmm, y'know, we shouldn't give up on this.'

    So it's a home away from home for diplomats, hustlers, entrepreneurs, and wanderers?

    Humans and aliens, wrapped in two million, five hundred thousand tons of spinning metal . . . all alone in the night.

    It can be a dangerous place, but it's our last best hope for peace.

    Was that the reason of the mission replay event last week: the final search for bugs after the sector revamp?

    hah...


    On a serious note, Nimbus III has great potential for another battlezone, all those different areas just scream for it. Sadly though, it's just another area where most of us rush through in order to finish the nimbus story arc.

    I've actually gone from level 26/27 to level 41 by doing nothing but Nimbus III & the middle two Drozana missions. It works fine as it is and shouldn't be changed.

    Actually... Alaellh (or however it's spelled) worms don't seem to mind temperate environments. You can find them in the jungley part of the Dyson ground BZ too.
