Will you PLEASE, PLEASE, PLEASE PLEASE....did I mention PLEASE!!!!!! Add the Breen to the Jem/Gamma/Dominion.
You can add all the Breen ships WITHOUT the consoles, leaving them (ships)where they are for LOBI whatever sales. you can also add the old Cardi ships as well.
I mean common Cryptic the BREEN are Dominion And you might make more $ flipping Breen ships onto the Z store so people buy them for the consoles. Food for thought.
Might as well add all the other minor (gamma)species as well to the Dominion/Jem/Gamma whatever as Captain choices as well.
Would it kill ya? I know it would make the game more fun and it's not like you don't have the mesh/skins and traits for the races for all these species already made. That expands to more BoFF's/DoFF's and packs = caching, caching $$$$$$
It's a friggin' game EXPAND it please.
Oh hey and while you're already not gonna pay close attention to this post ...how about Dominion, Bajoran and Cardassian admiralty rep huh?
Give us something else to do please. oh and T6 and T6 fleet NOVA. The time has come!!!!!!!

I wanted playable Vorta but for one reason or another we didn't even get that...it's unfortunate but this is how the game went. The Dominion faction was made to be JH only.
As mentioned: Breen are not Dominion, Jem'Hadar are the only fighting force of the Dominion.
We have been getting new content all year, just like in 2018, 2017, ...
Also, the Jem'Hadar are not the only fighting forces of the Dominion, they are just the only obvious, in-your-face shocktroopers. The Dominion conducts more spy/sabotage missions than they do conventional military campaigns, and the Vorta are the ones who carry the bulk of that fight (with the Founders putting their hand in occasionally for those assassinate-and-impersonate missions that a single-form solid like a Vorta cannot do).
On top of that, every Dominion ship shown in the show where you actually see the bridge was commanded by a Vorta, not a Jem'Hadar. In the show the J'H were never anything but foot troops with an occasional exceptional J'H functioning as a noncom here and there.
As for the "poor eyesight" thing, it does not matter for a race like the Vorta who depend more on sound than vision to "see" their surroundings.
All in all, getting more Dominion stuff would help break up the stream of DSC stuff so it does not lead to DSC fatigue (which some people are already complaining about).
The Breen do not join the Dominion again. This has already been addressed in-game (Quark's Lucky Seven; Fed Intel Report). There's already half a dozen Breen ships in-game as well that were made available as event ships, so there's little scope for income. The Dominion ONLY has one race that does their fighting and that's the Jem'Hadar, which are breed for the jobs and are the only ones the Founders will 'trust'. The Vorta rarely, if ever engage in actually combat as they have very poor eye-sight, before anyone says otherwise.
And we get new content regularly.....PATIENCE!!!
Well they rushed it out and then rushed the Hurq story so they could move on to Discovery...the odds of them going back to it are almost none.
I want Vorta and there is no excuse as to why they're not playable. If we have fleet admirals commanding a single ship and going on all the away missions there is no way a Vorta can't too.
That is true enough, however it is still not a reason to not flesh out the Dominion into something truer to the source material rather than simply a vehicle for the "start at endgame" fad that was popular (though already beginning to fade) when Vil was being developed. The Dominion seriously needs a leveling race, and the Vorta are ideal for the part, especially since spy/undercover ops missions like "Quark's Lucky Seven" proved to be so popular and espionage is their forte. And espionage/sabotage missions would make a welcome contrast to the shallow movie action style of DSC.
It is possible that they are waiting for the Picard show to do the deeper style missions, but again, that is not a good reason not to bring the Dominion up to realistic playable levels and head off more "DSC Dissing" as a nice side effect.
I have no idea how popular an all-espionage story arc would be, especially since it would probably involve acting against either the Federation or the KDF. Another problem is that after that story arc is over, your Vorta is then fighting through all the shared content as if they were Jem'Hadar.
We had one spy arc with the Romulan story, but in it we were the good guy or gal up against the evil Tal'shiar.
You are forgetting that all Dominion ships shown in DS9, except for maybe a few suicide ships we never see the inside of, are commanded by Vorta, not Jem'Hadar. Just because part of their espionage cover was that they were supposedly meek, weak, and practically blind does not mean they actually were. Combs did such an excellent job of showing that duplicity in subtle ways that it is a shame none of it has made it into STO. In fact, that Vorta surrounded by their pack of eminently expendable living smart-weapons style is perfect for STO.
Also, spy/sabotage/commando action stuff does work in STO, and it can be done by the "good guys" against the "bad guys" just as easily as by the "bad guys" against the "good guys". That kind of character is not necessarily evil (and in fact are more often the "good guys" in the spy genre).
That's true. If Garak had said he had weak eyesight and couldn't fight, we'd all know he was lying so why are we trusting Weyoun?
The pre-alliance arc might have to be set inside the Dominion though, since many players don't want to play evil characters and (for example) attacking a starbase and killing a bunch of Federation citizens would go against that.
"Make it pure stealth" isn't a solution since many players want STO to be an action game.
The biggest problem is that adding new Dominion content might be for too few players to be cost-effective for Cryptic.
Adding Picard content: 70+% of players care. Vorta story episodes? Less than 30%, possibly much less.
I rather enjoyed that part of the arc. an espionage storyline would be fun, IMHO
