hey iam really disapointed because i was expecting ground fights with the tzenkethy all i got is the mission ,guys of cryptic what happend !!!!!
you guys have the perfect way to make a ground battle zone ,like the mission put some bombs around on the planet surface for ppl go around and disable and protect the place and wait the back up. you got the planet on space battle zone then why no ground !!!!!!!!!!!!! the tzenkethy are a good enemy for ground ,like vaadwaur even more.

    Why? Extra effort.

    That's easily solved. Drop the space portion and focus on ground.
    This program, though reasonably normal at times, seems to have a strong affinity to classes belonging to the Cat 2.0 program. Questerius 2.7 will break down on occasion, resulting in garbage and nonsense messages whenever it occurs. Usually a hard reboot or pulling the plug solves the problem when that happens.

    Since they designed and gave them several unique abilities and animations, I think a ground battlezone or queue is planned but they didn't have time to finish it yet.

    Perhaps in Season 12.5.

    Ground combat in this game is terrible. Space combat, while flawed, is pretty fun.

    I mean, really, much of the game revolves around your ship. And the game's economy - they make money selling ships.

    There are plenty of planets up in that new sector block. They could set it on Ferasa? Maybe the cats have some of those 'evil' crystals the Tzenkathi don't like :O

    Probably due to manpower/resources.

    Or that the most recent ground BZ (Kobali) is a disaster, and pretty dead at almost all times.
    Maybe they felt it just wasn't worth the effort.

    Maybe they only had so much they could do with their resources, and making 2 BZ, a Space & Ground version was simply out of the question due to time constraints/manpower..

    We could speculate all day, but since we're never getting anywhere near their boardroom, there's not much point to this discussion.
    It could be for any number of reasons that we're not privy to.

    The Voth Ground Battlezone was some of their best work but Kobali ground wasn't well received. I would also like to see another ground battlezone but I think that they felt releasing another space battlezone would be the "safe" move because of all the ground haters.
    When you see "TRIBBLE" in my posts, it's because I manually typed "TRIBBLE" and censored myself.

    I wouldn't call the Kobali Ground Zone a disaster nor a dead zone, but it is not my favorite one. That would be a tie with New Romulus and Voth ones.

    Because they can't even fix the bugs in the Tzenkethi space battlezone of course.

    The big reason the Kobali zone didn't do that well is because the rewards suck. Give decent rewards, people will play it.

    We have only had one episode with the Tzenkethi so far, more are likely coming. Which could indicate that the Tzenkethi will be the enemy not just for this season, but also for the next (half) season.

    So there will be plenty of opportunity to add a ground zone, and I'm pretty sure that we'll see either such a ground zone or at least Tzenkethi ground queues within the next couple of months.

    ... ground combat sucks in this game ... I'd rather be strapped to a chair and forced to binge watch My Little Pony than suffer through a ground battlezone ... Space is much more my style, and I greatly appreciate it!

    My problem with the Kobali battlezone is the respawn time of the Vaads is too short, with enemies pretty much everywhere. It's atrocious when you try to defuse the mines, for example.

    I like ground maybe slightly more than space. I like them both.

    -- If you think Ground Kombat in this game is terrible then you're doing it wrong.

    -- As for the post.. Battlezones and recent PvE have been less then good quality.. they must have a new Staff doing them, its not fun like the other/older stuff. NPC Trolling balance issues for one and general build mechs done by the developers.

    -- The Voth Ground Battlezone was Brilliant. I dont kno what went wrong in their brains. Kobali was kool.. just overly simple & lacking in the reward effort.
