[Request][Discussion (about [Request])]Liberated Borg Skin

kikskenkiksken Member Posts: 664 Arc User
edited September 2023 in Star Trek Online General Discussion
I have been thinking for a while now, that the Liberated Borg look too "unBorgisch" in my humble opinion.
Which is sad, since, STO has DARN nice Borg NPC's.

I would like to see such a skin for the Lifers, it should be very easy, as both the skins already exists.
Surely, this is a personal request, of course, being a Borg Fan, but I hope, others too would surely appreciate a more Borgisch look on their character.
Note, just the skin, I do not request any ability or such.

Thoughts?

    There are tailor options that allow for a more Borg-ish look.
    True, but these do not, by far, look like the Borg NPC's, with half gone body and engineered arms and legs. :)

    They might do this if they actually cared about lifer benefits.

    Given however

    - that stuff was removed without ever having been replaced (even though it's still promoted as being in there sometimes, see forum titles)
    - that some of the previously exclusive stuff (which was already pretty limited anyway) is now accessible to anyone (fireworks)
    - that far more interesting stuff is available outside the lifer subscription

    they obiously don't care.

    I am a lifer, with several Lib. Borg.
    As for not caring, well, I got more than plenty back from them in the form of Zen, thus no complaints here.

    But this is more for role playing purpose out that I request this, not just because I am a lifer.
    IMHO, being a lifer has actually very little to nothing to do with my question, sir. :)

    They do have the Borg armor and Arm weapon in the Lobi Store that gives people more of a First Contact style Borg look based on 7 of 9.

    the old parts used on the NPCs probably weren't built to be customizable, thus don't work as player costumes

    I'm a lifer too...and I kinda agree with fleetcaptain

    The moment they added better Borg options to the lobi store than what lifers get was the moment I figured they finally gave up on lifers completely

    I ain't going to the frackin Lobi store???
    The hell is that?
    I'm a guy that refuses these casino-boxes.
    I refuse to get something I am NOT sure of what to get.
    Why?
    Because I am autistic, and I HATE luck based TRIBBLE.

    But I get it, community says no.
    Bit sad, I mean, it's not that I asked for actual Borg powers, or a Cube...
    Thank you either way for responding.

    I would like them to add more race options for lib borg players. I would love to play a lib borg Reman (would most likely become my main), but the closest I can get is using the costume unlocks from the lobi borg armor (which looks terrible I might add).

    If you want the ribcage only/spine/hips look like the borg on Defera, I don't think that is ever going to happen.
    every liberated borg ever portrayed have had the majority of their implants removed.

    Katrina has had a lot of her humanity restored, much like 7 of 9, but she still has implants on her face, hand and still has a mostly cybernetic arm
