Think I almost got conned on the voyager pack

I used to play this on the PC and I figured I'd give it a shot on the PS4.

So far I haven't been impressed.

Just a lot of useless controller actions and the cameras are gimped....forever locked so all you could see is your upper back (not sure what the point is in buying premium uniforms if you can't really see all of it unless you sit down)

But the worse thing of all is the fact that I almost spent 50 bucks on the voyager pack. I'm a huge voyager fan and I was one click away. I'm glad I hesitated because I realize you cannot explore your ship on the PS4....so spending 50 bucks on voyager interior skins is completely useless. It's interesting that they're selling this for PS4

I tried the game once more....I see in the last three years the same bugs are still there

I would have given ARC money but what's the point if you can't enjoy the uniforms because of the strict camera limitations and no ship exploration

    They wouldn't include the interiors if you couldn't explore them!!

    Wait, you can't visit your bridge on the console version?

    While I don't have a PS4, I see no mention of the inability to access bridges on consoles while doing a search (used Google and checked the reddit results). All I see is people posting questions and being confused about why they can't leave the bridge to explore the rest of the ship, which is normal for most ships with a unique bridge, excluding the Connie, Defiant and Voyager ones.

    Also, I'm surprised about the $50 price. If things work like on PC, there should be (or have been) three or two options: the $30 T6 Pathfinder, the time-limited T6 pathfinder+the 2 Voyager interiors and the $50 time-limited pack with all the Intrepid variants and the interiors.

    Yeah, I looked around too and can't find any mention of it either way. I will say though, if it's true that you can't visit your bridge on the console version then they definitely should not be selling bridge packs in the c-store.

    I recall a post from someone claiming they had to do ... something ... to be able to go to other decks on consoles other than just visiting the turbolift, but that was after they were already on their bridge. So based on that fuzzy memory I shall now declare that console ship interiors DO exist.

    I suspect OP just needs to ask other console players "how do I get to the ship's bridge."

    You can visit your bridge on console version, its just buried in the mess that is the menu system.

    You can visit your bridge on console and certain ships have other decks you can run around in.

    Also you should be able to cycle the camera distance to see more of your character
