they are bringing out a new Klingon Recruitment, but what about the others, they said "their has not been as many players since 2018 when Gamma Recruit went live, these new players are missing out a lot. Why not bring out a "recruitment" campaign where all the recruitments are active at one time, or just in rotation, some of the missions are gone but that is a reason they should be back! they need a new system for creating classes like "Discovery Era/Next Generation/Original Series" so if you want to make a Federation TOS Character you can, but what about a Romulan or Klingon TOS Character? it will be a TNG transporter effect, If they brought back the recruitment for everyone it would offer those new players a way to obtain the stuff that the older players have, maybe close the gap a little. I am on PS4 and my phone got fried and I can't get 2 step verified anymore means I have to start all over and what a great way to help out those new players by giving them this option

The T6 token should be a yearly event, a T6 token for Christmas, With so many ships, most are in Lockboxes or Promotional Packs it would take some slack off the ship designers, It is really painful to think of all the ships in Star Trek and create a version of every single one. If they added that too with a returning every few months recruitment/agent it would boost some new players where they can catch up to some older player. The game has so many new players, (they said so on twitter) and it is a shame that those new players are stuck behind the miles of traits, ships, consoles, duty officers, accolades, and more.
just adding, they should add more skins for the characters, everyone looks the game, they can just hire or find some textures to import for characters to not look so generic, also add many new hairstyles, not just Klingon, and yes, why is it EVERYONE except Romulans has gotten a recruit, well except Discovery Recruits.. I will still push for a new Era-Interface, the game puts you as TOS, TNG, DSC era, and each has a function based on that, also ships are now flyable as both factions while characters are all good or bad, Let me make a Pirate Human fighting for Honor or a Federation Orion looking to Explore, Give us some of those locations to visit, Orions need an outfit too, I don't care if it IS Lobi outfit just add the NX version or the TOS version cause this is the 20th year of the Star Trek: Enterprise
^This Guy^ is Correct Delta recruits is for the first three factions, however Romulans still haven't gotten a recruitment event that's exclusive to their faction, if you can even call it a faction.
Delta could be a problem since iirc some of the missions on the transponder have been pulled and would have to be fixed and put back in place before another run of that recruitment (or change the recruitment path itself to substitute other missions, though that kind of retroactive change could cause a lot of problems itself). AoY is probably even worse in that respect, which I suspect is almost as much of a problem as the inevitable howls of "its feddiebear only!!!, they get EVERYTHING!!!" that would erupt.
Running all of the recruitment events every few years would be good though, I for one would like a rerun of AoY since I missed it by a day or two the only time it ran (that was back in 2016 iirc).
Right now I have too many characters and am only making new ones if a recruitment comes up. But I would make new toons for each of these.
I want the game to be better, I want to see where you can pick the right side or wrong side, have a Orion or Human in outside their roles, not every Klingon thirsts for Honor, Federation can have so many new species, Let people create a Lukari, Kentari, Krenim, Ocampan, Talaxian, Borg, just buy the characters from the ZEN store, 1000 is expensive but I think it should be about right (i mean borg, not Liberated Borg)
a Borg faction starts out in a 3 part, first is helping an attack with a Tactical Borg Cube, their is 4 Bridge Officers with the space probe, you are eventually shot down on a planet, your connection with the Hive is severed, you are running to try to make supplies as survivors, you are then Rescued by a joint operation of Klingon and Federation, you assist them which they need your help as much as you need theirs. finally the planet villain is defeated and you are pointed to the Borg Liberated division to pick as side
with Disco Andorians, Dusco Saurians and Disco Tellarites, maybe Playable Kelpians if we're lucky.
Now that we have a KDF-only recruit event, this is not really an issue anymore. I suspect that that is at least part of the reason why we have Klingon Recruits, so that they can rerun Temporal Recruits in the future, either side-by-side with it, or as alternating events. The only ones left out from recruitment events specific to them are now Romulans, who only have a part in the Delta Recruit event, and Discovery Feds, who can't take part in any recruitment events.
Kind of. Go try and collect the Vigilance box from Delta Recruits (Klingon) on a new character right now and let us know how that works out for you. There's nothing for it in the transponder anymore, so it's not an issue for a future Delta recruit to complete, but any characters made since the Year of the Klingon started will never be able to claim the reward box. It's only 100 fleet marks and 1000 dilithium, but it's just edited right out of existence. In this case the items weren't moved, they were removed.
They should be!! Why was they NOT added with Discovery faction, I mean I wanna see those aliens and all the others get expanded on, like the TOS era, make the Orions and Romulans in DSC era,... GORN!!! WE NEED DISCOVERY ERA GORN!!
Then later in 2021 (the year of the Tribble), plan for a Tribble recruit! Finally! Playable tribbles and tribble BOFFs! My tribble boff is gonna wield a boolean!
Delta is the one where, at least it used to be, for full reward optimization you needed (3) recruits (1) of each faction for the storylines. The Gamma is the Jem'Hadar & only needed (1). The Temporal only needed (1) too, but is the only recruitment event to receive no re-run. Besides of course this new KDF recruitment which only (1) is needed too.
Did I miss any: Delta, Gamma, Temporal, & now KDF? I still feel like it would be advantageous for the players & Cryptic to re-run each recruitment event once a year, but I also wouldn't be surprised if Cryptic monetizes the recruitment events somehow eventually.
Harry Mudd has kidnapped some delta recruits and plans to SELL them to unscrupulous players!
How is Harry Mudd still alive, isn't he a 23rd century human, the game takes place in the year 2409, AoY Captains travelled 139 years into the future while DSC Captains travelled 159 years into the future, the math doesn't add up unless he also time travelled.
Cloning, transporter pattern buffer data preserved, & as you stated time travel too. Where there's a Mudd there's a way.
(didn't finish my AoY stuff until 2019, because i didn't know you could keep working on it after the event.) So, unless the run it again I'm forever without those bonuses....
Hologram.
Just watch...by summer a new lockbox may contain a Holographic Harry Mudd BOFF (with pirate skill and a few others...)
I looked right pass the obvious lol
Temporal is the one that needs to be re-run, but it will need a reworking of awards because they removed a tranche of missions to be remastered, which are abviously not returning any time soon.
At this point since Cryptic has refused to re-run the Temporal despite knowing the desire is there for it I'd hope they'd put the effort in & just re-run it in original form best possible & double-up on any rewards from missing missions or if a work-around is needed then do it. That particular recruitment event had rewards that really benefitted players participating & I fear with Cryptic's wisdom they won't offer the same rewards & will be watered-down substitutes. I've already began wondering if we'll receive another KDF recruitment event before another Temporal.
The fact that it is required for Delta recruits, and is also perfect to add to AoY as one of the replacements for completely retired episodes that were originally part of AoY, would divide the cost of bringing it back into the main mission tree between them. Placed where it is in the (un)Available tab new players usually don't even know it is there, which could be a problem for Delta (and possibly AoY) recruits.
If the devs think that the puzzles would be too tedious for some of the more impatient players they could include a warning in the description that it contains puzzles and is not for the faint of mind (well, probably not put in that particular phrasing) and to skip to the next arc if the player does not want to take it on (though recruits would still need to play it for the transponder rewards associated with it).
It is also one of the very few arcs that are a natural fit for Gamma recruits since with its temporal and alpha quadrant elements it could be done as a "live" mission instead of a "simulation", and to 23rd century Federation people they would just be another obscure alien race no one recognizes rattling around Federation space so the episodes would realistically play though normally without any lore problems.
The only real problem with the arc was the old "McCoy" sequence bug, and that was squashed shortly before the arc was removed to shorten the Federation mission tree path.
