Few questions for Cryptic and/or Devs

edited May 2015 in Romulan Discussion
I'm not really expecting too much in the way of answers, and or any answers at all, but considering the number of threads with the same or similar themes, I though I'd put several into one spot.

Our dear friends the forum moderators, haven't yet created an FCT for the Romulan sub-forums, but I'm guessing it will happen soon, so ...


1} Will we ever get a proper T5/U/T6 Romulan Carrier with 2 Hangar bays?

2} Will we ever get a non Fleet T5/U/T6 proper "sciency" Science Ship?

3} Will we ever get a Romulan Ground Set /Rom Rep Ground Set WITH VISUALS?

4} Will we ever get a New Romulus City?

5} Will we ever get a full Romulan Fleet with Romulan themed Holdings?

6} Will we ever see an adjustment to the rate of Romulan Bridge Officer Recruitment missions?

7} Will we ever see Reman Bridge Officer BoFF Recruits for sale at a vendor?

8} Will we ever see Romulan Alien Bridge Officers?

9} Will there ever be a Romulan Security Officer?

10} Will there ever be a Romulan Duty Officer NPC?

11] Will we ever see other playable/recruitable races/species added to the Romulan Faction?

12} Will we ever see some parity and continuity in the Romulan Tailor Color Palette?

13} Will we ever see Bridge Packs for Romulan Ships?

14} Will we ever get a "trophy room" for our ships?


I think that's about it ... feel free to add or detract, from the list.
Oh, hoho hohhhhh, Oh,, hoho, hohhhhh

    I can probably answer those accurately in one line.

    Probably not.

    I'd be overjoyed to be proven wrong, but the Roulan faction has never been a priority of any sort for the Devs. Some of the mods care, but the SpoonFeds will always be the top priority. The golden child.

    As someone mentioned in another thread about romulan ships. Probably not.

    But here's to asking and hoping they prove us wrong.


    Pretty please?

    Agree with everything that the OP suggested. I'll add...

    15} Will we ever get the missing Romulan uniforms (DS9, Nemesis...)?

    16} Will the existing uniforms get the missing pieces (alternate belts on TNG, the thumb-loops on TOS*...)

    17} Will we ever get an Academy?

    18} Will the state of the Republic government ever be expanded, with a Senate building and a few new NPCs?

    19} Will we ever get more Romulan-specific content?

    20} Will we ever get Romulan voice actors, for example:
    -> Joanne Linville, as the Romulan Commander
    -> John Snyder, as Bochra
    -> Carolyn Seymour, as Toreth
    -> Dina Meyer, as Donatra

    * = if you go to the Club on ESD, check the hands of the woman in pink Romulan TOS skirt, in front of the glass wall on the other side of the bar. I kid you not... she has the thumb-loops. So the tailor asset definitely exists.

    And a Romulan computer voice? The actress that does the Romulan Head Researcher's voice in installation 18 would be cool :cool: That snide, patronizing "drawl" would make a great Computer Voice :)

    I'd really like Romulan Fleet holdings. Also I want a accurately scaled singularity core room on warbirds, not the tardis size one we have now. The singularity cores on ships even like the mighty D'deridex were shown to fit in a almost cabinet size area.


    On the plus side you can change your sig the dyson ships have been able to use their factions skins for a while now :P :D

    I don't create specific sub forum FCT's. It's a general forum FCT and shockingly enough there is a math behind my equations on if something is considered FCT or not :P

    Fun fact, some time after LoR, leaked audio files from the game itself were computer voices, and they sounded very much like the Romulan computer voice in the Iconian TNG episode (can't remember the name). For some reason, it was never added to the game.

    Excellent Post, am not even enjoying my science character because i can not have a good sci ships to play with. Cryptic its about time you start listing to those of as that play Romulans Faction. stop giving too many Engineering ships and tac ships. Also we need the game to recognize as Romulans not some Fed copy or KDF copy, that takes the fun out of the game. if i want to play a Fed or for that matter a KDF character i wouldn't have created a Romulan character . PLEASE PLEASE

    Any Romulan-specific VO would be awesome. Just to give a little more flavour to the faction. And if it's a returning Trek actor, that's all the better! There were some great characters to play off.

    My candidate for the computer voice would be the guy that does Kail from Temporal Defense. I think he could pull off the computer voice we heard in that TNG episode pretty well, if for whatever reason they're not going to use those audio files.

    15) I have seen this asked before. Are not the bulky padded jackets the uniforms from DS9? I know they were in TNG. I missed something on Nemesis. Was there also a romulan Nemesis uniform? Because we have the reman one.

    18/19) Oh yes please!

    And now I have to go to the club again. . .

    There are a couple uniforms missing, yeah.

    The classic checkerboard was in DS9, but they also had a tighter variant. Seemed to be more Tal'Shiar than anything, but still neat.

    And yeah, there was a new Romulan uniform for Nemesis.

    If the neck piece and bandolier were present I would think that to be the modern Tal Shiar uniform. Or really close to it.

    I know I would buy it if it was put out. :)

    Doesn't Centurion Velaar at NRC fullfill this role? She at least sells the CXP Doffs.

    I think it was mentioned, but we need a Romulan Computer voice.

    I would love it very much if the special BOFFs (Breen, Reman, Jem Heddar et al) came in Romulan flavor. I really hate having the Fed Logo and Fed beam out animation attached to half my crew.

    And Romulan Flavored DOFFs as well, I don't care if they are just a Copy Paste with the Romulan Background for stuff like the Colonization DOFFs.

    Well, thank you for letting me know at least, I guess an FCT also actually requires a Dev Response, so that we know that creating new threads to previously answered questions is worth while or not. Sadly their are only "crickets chirping" from the Devs, in most of these types of threads.

    You know I hadn't even realized!!! Thanks :) I was away from the game for some time, and back then the DSD's were actually (almost) a worthwhile investment, but with the coming of T6 I never fly them any more. Thanks again

    ...

    Been asked before, and I am very sorry I missed it :(

    21} Will we ever get all the variants and accessories of the Tal Shiar Uniforms?

    Yep, she does that. But then there's a console for the 48hr recruitment missions, and no 20hr race-based recruitment contacts. So we're missing some pieces.

    This +1
    Sick of hearing my KDF allied Romulan talked to like she is a Klingon. Romulans deserve respect and the other two factions need to start respecting us and stop discriminating against us.
