    wow. cant be bothered to reference questions already in existence in another thread.

    Except, the OP of this thread gives instructions to post your question again if you want an answer. Not, "refer over there for my question." If you can't be bothered, why should they? I mean, you go so far as to copy & paste a link to another thread, but you can't copy & paste a question? Seems like you're just being willfully obstinate. Just my opinion. 🤷🏼‍♀️

    It looked to me like he was trying to follow the advice of someone talking about meeting in the middle only to be kicked in the Richard for his trouble.

    However, let me be fair, here. For all I know the two of you may have an ongoing rivalry in the forum and this is just the nature of you interact with each other. I have been away from the forum for a long time, like the Romulans at the end of Season 1 of TNG, so I'm not entirely certain of how things may have developed.

    For all I know he laid a trap for you, BMR. If that's the case the only advice I have is don't be the reason Drew Barrymore got hooked on the drugs at an early age.

    (Some of my Sequiturs seem to have fallen into the "Non" category.)

    No rivalry as far as I'm concerned. I don't get hung up on such things.

    Not even the friendly kind? Those can be amusing.

    But back to the subject of the thread, I have a question:

    Is there any consideration being given to updating the older reputation stores so that they are on par with the more recent ones as far as purchasable items?

    I’m at a loss as to what he considers important question in the other thread that were ignored?

    A unified tailor palette would be cool, but it is unlikely because it is a lot of work.

    The question about a new bug reporting system is way more work than updating the tailor palettes. It is also kinda an insulting question because it implies the current bug reporting system is ineffective. Without commenting on the current bug reporting system, it seems very clear why these questions weren’t answered and the answers are obviously no I’m both cases.

    As Kael said, most the questions in that thread were really veiled suggestions, and we know Cryptic doesn’t announce upcoming content until it is finalized that it can be implemented as intended.

    For a developer "A lot of work" and "too hard" means your CUSTOMERS have to do a lot of unnecessary work.

    Hello,

    I'd like to know the feasibility of adding the option to buy ship visuals with a small amount of zen as opposed to purchasing a whole ship just for the visuals?

    An example:

    I recently got the Fleet Shepard Miracle Worker Battlecruiser (fleet version of the Gagarin Battlecruiser). I don't have the zen store version of the ship which is the Gagarin Miracle Worker Battlecruiser. But when I got the fleet ship, I didn't realize the visuals couldn't be changed from the Discovery era unless I purchased the regular zen store ship. Except buying it now would be a massive downgrade from the fleet version and I am not very interested in the universal console.

    So to recap, my question is, could we have an option to buy the updated visuals for fleet ships for like 150-250 zen instead of spending 2500-3000 zen for a ship that's worse and a universal console I'll never use?

    Devs, copying from another thread

    1. the meme is making fun of your game
    2. do you PLAY the game outside of testing? can you honestly say you LIKE spam like in the screenshot the meme was made from?

    I know your response from last month where your "data" says moar. I challenge that, and I want to see you put out a poll. Someone said put it in when you log in. I would suggest a mass email, make a page and put links to the survey on twitter, FB reddit and here and the splash screen.. I challenge you but in my heart I know you won't, because you think it will be TOO HARD to dial everything back.

    Is it possible to add more alien body parts and configurations to the tailor?
    Or better yet, costume sets like there are for the Breen and Borg? Maybe add it to the Lobi store, Zen store, dilithium store?
    We have all of these alien ships and can't even make a custom alien to have the right body parts because they aren't available in the tailor. Would be nice if they were unique sets with special bonuses fitting the race, but hell I would buy just a costume unlock. My Kobali character doesn't even have ears-the Kobali ears in the tailor are not the right ones.
    Would be nice to see Kobali, Lukari, Voth, Vorgon, Fekl'hri, Vaadwaur, Nakuhl, and maybe even Cardassian, Vorta, etc costumes/skins. All are already in-game assets.

    Deferi as well. I play a Deferi crew on one character and it drives me mad that NPC Deferi use parts I can't. Deferi women use a 'horn' option which is only available for men in the tailor.

    I am curious about the answer to that question too, the alien tab parts kit could definitely use a few more options, as could the hair. My latest character is an Oran'taku but there is nothing like the eyeline ridges though it can be sort of faked with one of the forehead options if you use a hair that adequately conceals the forehead itself but not the sides of the eyes (there is only one hair like that for women currently, unfortunately).

    Would it be possible to update some of the older C-store ships to full specializations?

    I get that it really doesn't matter that much, as some are bought for barbie/consoles/traits but it'd nice to see more of the older ships out there.

    No, I meant the older T6s with less than desirable seating.

    This thread isn't really meant for discussion, but since it's going on already I'll say that I think new seating would be handled by introducing new variants rather than making retroactive changes to existing ships. It might not be totally out of the picture since they did change the Wells-era temporal ships, but I'm pretty sure that change was a one-time thing rather than a potential precedent.

    New variants are also not guaranteed unless the ships reappear on a current show, but if they see it as a good idea it could still happen.
