Hello Admirals!

We are pleased to announce that Priority One Productions will be attending the 2015 Star Trek Las Vegas Convention! Thanks to our friends at Geek Nation Tours, members of the Priority One team will be on site to report on all the convention happenings – including all Star Trek Online related events! We're looking forward to sitting down with the DEVs at our table this year and chatting about Star Trek Online!

As always, with big events like this, we like to turn to the community for questions you'd like to hear asked of the DEVs (where applicable). Now, several members of the Star Trek Online team will be there, so we need your help with keeping the questions sorted properly. Here are the instructions:

Please TAG your questions with one of the following:
  • [SYSTEMS]
  • [ART]
  • [CONTENT]
  • [FOUNDRY]
  • [OTHER]
  • [CAST/CREW]

For Example:
  • [SYSTEMS] - When will the XYZ modifiers perform 123 when applying ABC?
.... or....
  • [CONTENT] - In the latest featured episode, our character performed XYZ... how will this impact the state of the federation in 123?

We will STOP taking questions on Thursday, August 6th at 12:00:00 EASTERN TIME

Be sure not to miss our convention coverage by following our social media websites!!

Edit: I've added [CAST/CREW] because we may get lucky and have a few celebrity interviews -- especially those who have might have voiced the game.
Please remember that posting your question does not guarantee it will be asked.
We will do our best to get through as many as possible - time permitting.

    Nice. Looking forward to hearing this year's news. Here are my questions:

    [SYSTEMS/CONTENT]: Now that we have a fleet system that allows fleets to help each other out, will Romulans ever be able to create their own new Romulan themed starbases? I ask this because in the past the excuse that "people don't want to level new fleets" was given, but now new fleets are a valuable part of the Armada system.

    [FOUNDRY]: When the top 3 foundry system was introduced, it sounded like this was going to be expanded in the future. Is this still happening?

    [SYSTEMS/CONTENT]: On the last community poll, exploration came in first, and expanded fleet functionality came in...4th? I can't remember. Anyway, why was expanded fleet functionality done before the obvious first choice?

    What makes you think 1 is coming?
    Well excuse me for having enormous flaws that I don't work on.

    No really I think it was mentioned in some P1 ep.

    - is the commando specialization going to be expanded?

    - is the crew mechanic going to get a revamp ever?

    - are there any plans of making boffs having more that one weapon slot, or maybe players having a third one?

    - any plans for expanding the ground/space device slots?

    - when are we going to be able to craft melee weapons?

    [foundry] what as a community can we the players do in order to bring more focus on the foundry and as such, make it a higher priority for updates and import of options from say NW?

    [SYSTEMS] It started with rubberbanding when the Anniversary Event went live. Now we have not only rubberbanding, but also disconnects, lag and on some maps - in the truest sense of the word - a slide show. Will the game EVER be playable again?
    The fact that jellyfish have survived for 650 million years despite not having brains is great news for stupid people.

    When can we expect the lag to go away?

    [CONTENT]
    Can we have Space-PvE-Queues in future without timegate? Don't like to play the new ones, because they are timegated.

    [ART]
    Will (current) minor allied characters other than Gorn, Talaxian, Bajoran, Nausicaan, Xindi, Ferengi, Krenim, Reman and Orion ever get their own unique outfit styles?

    Klingon forehead piercings when?

    Andorian antenna animation when?

    [CONTENT]
    If talks of a playable Cardassian faction happened, has the team considered renaming the existing Lockbox Galor to "True Way Galor" or the like to differentiate it from the inevitable faction-exclusive Galor-class starship?

    Nausicaan/Lethean females when?

    Playable BOFFs(at least in social zones) when?

    Any plans to release more specialization ships that have Gather Intel and Pilot Maneuvers?

    Is Q getting his lulz from the whole Iconian war?

    Benzite BOFFs when?

    Considered just making kit modules into captain-specific training manuals for a future kit revamp? Or better yet, training manuals for even high-ranked bridge officers to use? A lot of the more premium kit powers are completely unavailable to BOFFs.

    Event item account unlocks(like we got for event ships) for items like the ZEFRAM COCHRANE SHOTGUN?

    Moar(not "more", MOAR) rep-unlockable stuff from older reps?

    [FOUNDRY]
    I understand that the tailor file save/load feature was removed due to a bug. Will it ever return?

    Norway and Yeager dammit... I still want my Typhoon and Jupiter though.
    JJ Trek The Kelvin Timeline is just Trek and it's fully canon... get over it. But I still prefer TAR.

    [SYSTEMS] Last year at a STLV14 P1 podcast, Captain Geko mentioned a Skill and Power revamp. At the time there was even a dev that posted a thread asking for player feedback on powers. Is this still a thing? Some old powers just aren't useful in today's game or just need some tweaking. For example, Aceton Beam seems like a good power, but has a really long cooldown making it useless for most of the match.

    [SYSTEMS] Lag: Is it permanent?

    [SYSTEMS] Lag: If not, is there any guesstimate on how many more months it will take to address it?

    [SYSTEMS] Lag: Will you consider posting regular updates on these forums on progress with the latency issues?

    [SYSTEMS] Lag: Would it be possible to disable all offending traits, specializations, consoles and abilities and then re-enable them as fixes are found?

    [SYSTEMS] Lag: Are steps being taken to ensure new traits, specializations, consoles and abilities are not introducing new sources of lag?

    [SYSTEMS] Lag: The server seems to get really unstable now after restarts. Is this a known issue or just a freak repeating coincidence?

    [SYSTEMS] Lag: Seriously. Is it "simply" a matter of time consuming labor, insufficient funding, what-have-you that is dragging this out for so long or are there aspects of the latency problem that you just do not know how to correct?

    I'm sorry folks - Allow me to clarify my disclaimer. The main reason that would keep us from asking a question would be time-constraint. I encourage everyone to submit questions. Even You! And You! You too!

    Yeah, I've been trying to do that. But if you know something that I do not, you can definitely help with it my explaining the logic involved. Not everyone can see things from your perspective.

    Or what? You just posted a picture. I don't understand what you're trying to say from a picture. Nor what the text has to do with anything about what you're trying to say.

    You're not being very clear.

    When do we get the tarantula (Tholian Dread)?

    [systems]
    When will the lag-causing abilities be fixed? There was a list posted saying Borticus is crushing the bugs seven at a time but that was month ago by now and its still laggy as hell.

    [SYSTEMS] I'm still seeing reports in various threads that doff assignments aren't updating properly in sector space unless you are sitting right on the sector border. Is this still being worked on? For reference, here are two previous threads on the issue:

    http://perfectworld.vanillaforums.com/discussion/1187129/doffing-on-the-border-hope-this-helps
    http://perfectworld.vanillaforums.com/discussion/1189894/haggle-for-assignments-still-missing

    [SYSTEMS] There are reports of multiple bugs in the armada system. For example, the skill point bonus seems to work only with kills, not with mission rewards or doff assignments. And sometimes, the armada level, skill point bonus, and dilithium discount are calculated incorrectly (note that this may have more than one cause). See the threads below.

    http://perfectworld.vanillaforums.com/discussion/1196842/does-bonus-skill-points-actually-work-from-armada

    [CONTENT] So, I haven't been around from the beginning, so I may have missed this. What was the plan, back in the day, for the Comsat area in the Defera Invasion Zone?

    [SYSTEMS/ART] Can we do a Kickstarter for an extra programmer (or three) to aid in crushing deeply imbedded bugs (and lag) and an extra artist for updating old models?

    [OTHER] With T6 now the endgame-level ship, how about a Fleet Exeter already?

    Edit:
    [ART] The ST:Generations Kirk vest has been in-game since Sphere of Influence. Why can't I buy it yet?

    Are there plans for a future development of the Tholians? It seems they were kinda forgotten about after New Romulus and Nukura, but once the Iconian arc is over, it might be chance for continuing the story.

    [CONTENT]
    Will we actually deal with the aftermath of the war, rebuilding worlds, helping refugees? Or will we move on to the next big bad because there is little queued event content thinkable of for this?

    [CONTENT]
    Any plans of getting background material like "Tales of War" into the game itself?
