-Its on a case by case basis if they update old consoles to be universal
-ENT weapons are oversized due to the way the game is set up with being able to make large characters
-Hearts and Minds is coming back for Halloween, and two weeks later for Friday the 13th
-Unlikely they will get Worf back for various reasons
-Focus on Martok, Akaar, and other guests he can't talk about
-Nothing in the works for more inventory storage
-No roadmaps recently due to COVID
-No update on the Mirror Engle X upgrade
-House Shattered coming after Witner Event for consoles
-Will look into making Lower Decks vindicta crew for Klingons, not sure if they can
-Lower Decks content is planned, but can't talk about it
-Kael has heard the storyline for the anniversary update and thinks it cool. suspects people will find it controversial in some segments of the fanbase.
-Cryptic is hoping to do race/gender changes at some point. Class change unlikely, faction change wont happen

-More hanger pets getting squadron conversion at some point
-Plans for new lobi ships
-Swarm ships "don't know when"
-Temporal Ambassador on line to get fixed
-Kael is pushing for a temporal recruit rerun, since he knows how much we want it
-CBS likes working with Cryptic/others because they want to keep the Star Trek family together, and so fans of things like STO, the novels, coimcs, can all stay quasi canon
-He doesn't believe even Romulan embassy officers are meant to wear Starfleet uniforms, Romulans not getting starfleet uniforms was a hard no they got from CBS at one point

-Cryptic is working on DSC style species options
-CBS has said yes to adding Kelpians, don't know when it would happen

    Fascinating reading... I appreciate that you post these highlights as I miss all the Ten-Forward stuffs due to work...

    Well, as far as Holograms go, the Doctor can change uniforms so it's not like it hasn't been done.

    -Kael has heard the storyline for the anniversary update and thinks it cool. suspects people will find it controversial in some segments of the fanbase.
    Oh boy... and considering how other controvertial subjects have been recieved... (Kobali and Renegade's Regret)
    -CBS likes working with Cryptic/others because they want to keep the Star Trek family together, and so fans of things like STO, the novels, coimcs, can all stay quasi canon
    Interesting tidbit. Almost sounds like CBS would like to canonize certain elements of STO. Technically they already have with the Faeht and Odyssey classes...
    -Lower Decks and Picard 23xx uniforms will be done at some point
    WANT! SO MUCH WANT!
    -Big Halloween event teased a few years ago still unlikely. Other plans to make Halloween something other then Hearts and Mind have been put out, and are more likely for 2021
    God I hope so... I am so tired of Hearts and Minds. We got actual story missions that feel more spooky than that!
    -Winter ship announcement in a few weeks
    Looking forward to hearing about that.
    -Talks about ways to make crafting more viable
    Hope so. I'm mostly stockpiling resources these days...
    -Cryptic is working on DSC style species options
    More options are always good.
    -CBS has said yes to adding Kelpians, don't know when it would happen
    interesting... last we heard it was still a no. Guess they wanted to give Discovery some more time before giving the green light.
    -There is a chance of the KDF getting a sub faction like Federation... but only a chance
    Well... there have been rumblings of a DSC Era Klingon thing... And we're still short one particular Klingon bullet ship.

    Me too! At my end it’s not that I could not watch streams if I wanted to but that I really don’t want to as I can’t stand listening or seeing Kael.

    These sum ups, copied over from Reddit, are perfect as I can absorb all the vague and non saying information provided without wasting more than 30 seconds of my life. :)

    I totally agree. I do appreciate Som's efforts to bring this to this forum. I share the same sentiment though that PC1st has with quality of the information which seems to me for the most part vague or really nothing at all.

    -Still no word on next gen console versions/compatibility
    Wasn't it in the list of compatible games of at least one of these consoles?
    -ENT weapons are oversized due to the way the game is set up with being able to make large characters
    HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!

    No.

    Say that to the Vorgon, Ferengi, Corrosive plasma, Undiscovered Country, DSC pistols.
    Heck, say that to the bloody common 25th phasers.

    Sorry, that excuse is simply laughable.
    That thing is wrongly oversized, even compared to other oversized weapons, period.
    Unlikely they will get Worf back for various reasons
    Michael Dorn is disinterested. It clearly showed in his appearances, he sounds bored and reading his lines, and uses his normal voice as opposed to the Worf one.
    -Focus on Martok, Akaar
    Thank you, Ambassador Obvious.
    -No roadmaps recently due to COVID
    Emails, video conferences, phone calls confirmed Prime Directive violations or something.
    -Kael has heard the storyline for the anniversary update and thinks it cool. suspects people will find it controversial in some segments of the fanbase.
    *chuckles* We're in danger. If Kael says it's "controversial", that means it's so obscene everyone is gonna be disgusted by this turn of events.

    jk... hopefully.
    -More hanger pets getting squadron conversion at some point
    Could we please have the current ones' quality fixed, first?
    -Swarm ships "don't know when"
    Literally since the Kelvin Divergence lockbox release.
    -Not sure why holo Geordi can change uniform, while others can't, when celebrity BOFFs are generally not supposed to be able to
    Thank you, Ambassador Oblivious.
    That's called a bug or an oversight. Happened several times, like with the Hierarchy Boff.
    -CBS has said yes to adding Kelpians, don't know when it would happen
    YES!

    Na you are surly kidding. When Kael says something like this its rather unlikely that I will even notice it. :D

    It's the same as if Geko would say things are going to be awsome, or Bort promises that stuff will turn out to be balanced.

    I think you missed my point. How would you feel if you got asked the same question over and over, no matter what answer you gave? This has nothing to do with what the answer is, or if its acceptable to those asking the questions. It has everything to do with the person being asked the question.

    Lets say you're doing a livestream and you answer a question. How would you react to having that same question you just answered come up again and again 5 minutes later?
    For my part... I'd start getting a bit annoyed honestly.

    No, he means Swarm based player ships. Of which, there are zero in-game.
    At best, it'd be squadrons (of squadrons) of hangar pets, since a console featuring them exists already (2 consoles, actually, but the other one summons a SOLE modified version that can only shoot at things).

    I'd love to be surprised and see a unique ship that is actually a swarm of those ships with a main control one and the more damage you take, the smaller the swarm, but I highly doubt they have the motivation, time and tech for doing something cool like that.

    No way they're gonna make it a shuttle considering shuttle-based content is no longer produced. When they revamped one of the KDF missions, they removed the shuttle part.

    Plus, with how small it is, it'd get the Aeon's issues, AKA so small, weapon beams are as huge as the vessel itself.

    I disagree, cause its still it is his job and no job is easy(or almost), but he does have it easier than many of us in RL. We do our jobs daily too and without much complaining often having to deal with hard people in person and not in distance. Apart from that, someone who asks a question on his stream that got asked 3-4 streams ago, he simply may not know it was already asked. That said the streams I watched he did seem mostly calm, as it should be, so maybe being annoyed was a bit exaggerated
  • rattler2rattler2 Member, Star Trek Online Moderator Posts: 58,577 Community Moderator
    Its a give and take. Yes it is his job to answer questions, but how do you balance it out to be able to answer questions if the same one keeps coming up over and over and you have other questions getting drowned out?

    Again that's basically the livestream life.

    I just don't see why people are calling him bad when he's actually doing more than CaptainSmirk did. He's not Trendy level good, but he's alright.

    He has good and bad points obviously. Overall? I dont think he is doing a bad job but yes he has a lot room to improve as long as he wants to and he has the time to do so. At least he appears to be a good person. Still I didnt say he is bad - I said that he has to do his job like all of us do in our RL. As a sidenote, it feels like Cryptic employs him part time(even if we count his appearances as CM for CO too) which may explain some of the things he has left aside - if you dont have enough time to do all, you place priorities and cant have a presence everywhere. Hence I said if he has the time

    Martok kills J'mpok. J'Ula becomes chancellor and rules the new orc empire with her co-ruler aka lackey monkey Adet'Pa at her side. m8ufiyH.png

    Honestly the story will be big disappointment either way. I always wanted Klingon story in STO with the same quality as the one Klingon Academy had. Instead we got TRIBBLE poor version of the Duras sisters civil war except 100% less cooler and 1000 times uglier and stupid while pretending to be innocent after cartoonishly killing millions of the same people she demands unquestionable loyalty from.

    Klingon ship anniversary is a Federation ship bundle with only two KDF ships at 30,000 zen. vQTD03D.png​​

    I was so sure that there was going to be KDF legendary bundle on par with the federation one from last year. There is certainly enough ships on their side to warrant one. The KDF fanbase is going to explode alright...

    Really no reason to explode. At the very least we're looking at 4 ships (B'rel, K'Tinga (includes D7), Vor'cha, and Negh'var), with the potential for a total of 7 (Kelvin D7, Discovery D7, Bortasqu').
    The one thing in common with all the Legendaries except for the Odyssey has been Canon status. Odyssey was included because it is STO's Enterprise. The Bort would be an equivelent to the Ody.

    Absolute parity with the Fed bundle isn't exactly possible because of the lack of canon designs in game. There is no Ent era ship other than the freighter, TNG era really only had 2 ships... So at best we may have 7 ships. But the very least we have the 4 big canon ones.

    I can't take it anymore! Could everyone just chill out for two seconds before something CRAZY happens again?!
    The nut who actually ground out many packs. The resident forum voice of reason (I HAZ FORUM REP! YAY!)

    KDF bundle might be smaller 1-5 ships, if it ever happens and I am ok with it as long as the price is on par too with the amount, and the quality of the ships is high. To be honest, back in 10th anniversary when they were saying for 10 or more ships and were hyping it, I expected 2 KDF ships, 1 Rom, 1 JH(probably some odo ship version), and rest to be Fed. Instead all we got was a full federation pack giving a clear message to the rest. A MW D7 5/3 weapons destroyer was also hinted at some point a bit after STLV but never appeared

    So, to save myself from disappointment, I am not really hoping for a ships pack this time for KDF either. The most likely is we will get a 1ship pack like the romulan one cause we simply do not matter much. We should not underestimate that getting a big round zero is also a high chance so its best we dont get any false hopes. I suggest the same to all fellow KDF players - keep your expectations low no matter if many say there may be a legendary pack at the end of the season - we had been hinted for at least one ship pre-announcing the the anniversary pack too and we all saw what happened. If something will come we will know later on only if officially announced.
