The goal of the Romulan Republic storyline wasn't to resolve the Iconian plot, but instead tell the backstory and get them synched up with the FED and KDF so that everyone is on equal footing for the next FE Series which will take place after the abduction of Sela and the discovery of the Gateway on Mol'Rihan. This way,…
As other's have stated, the release will be between 6am-11am Pacific Time so that our technical staff of engineers can be on site to watch and monitor the shard since this is a very big release. We are also hopeful that we'll not need queues due to increased hardward and performance improvements going to Holodeck, but it…
This has not been forgotten. I made the request to our lead designer gecko to reduce the inputs of Fleet Holdings and he said that it is in the works as part of the next Fleet Holding which is coming out in June. The next holding is related to the procurement of Dilithium and has a built-in mechanic that reduces the cost…
This is the way that the Romulan Republic has been designed from the start and we will do not expect to to move the level at which Romulans must choose an ally. I appreciate that not everyone is happy with this, but it is the story we're telling and some will like it and some will not. It was not an arbitrary decision and…
Please keep the feedback constructive and if you have suggestions for specific dialog - please post it. As I've stated previously, much of the text has not had a final pass by the editing team and so you're seeing placeholder text in many later missions.
This sounds like a bug that has come up a few times in other threads. We'll be looking into this. You should not be forced to become "Klingy" after accepting their alliance.
All signs point to full speed ahead. We are already looking to the future and share in the excitement that if Legacy of Romulus works, we can move on to other factions and other locations. We would love to see end-game expand into the Delta Quadrant. So much galaxy out there!
This encounter is not tuned very well for the level you are at. It is getting updated and balanced a bit. We agree that while probably not a challenge for most experienced players, it will destroy new players who are new to this type of gameplay.
Romulans are intended to be able to team for any mission that is setup properly to allow Romulans to team. The only missions that Romulans should not be able to team for are missions that are setup where FED and KDF cannot team for the episode. All Romulan episodes should be set to allow all Romulans to team together. If…
Since this is our first, building a big Free Expansion is a bit of an unknown return on investment at this point, and yes they are extremely expensive to build. We have faith that if we build to a higher bar, even though it is free, it will pay off in a better game in the end. We are growing and learning and surviving in a…
I'll reiterate once again. A limited form of custom Alien will be available at launch as a perk to anyone who is a Lifetime member or past/current subscriber. We may unrestrict this further down the road, but at launch it is restricted. Even then, custom aliens are intended to be more in line with "hybrids" than "make…
Also, some of the vet and lt rewards aren't unlocked until after you get to the flotilla. Non-Romulan species are also disabled, as is making a KDF character. There is a short FAQ in the FNN Forum thread about beta round 1 that has a few more details.
You will not be able to progress after Mind Games. You can still earn XP, but the character is intentionally restricted in a hacky sort of way. We would like play testing focused on the first three story arcs and first two tiers of ships at this time. We will open up the second half of testing at a later date.
Much of the text hasn't had a final pass, so a lot of the text is early draft placeholder, especially when it comes to side comments and later missions.
The Legacy Pack is a disount bundle. All of the items (except title and special reman DOFF) will be available after launch in the c-store. So for lifetimers like yourself, you'll be able to spend the stipend on any of these items starting May 21.
If you were invited into Closed Beta Round 1, then you will be able to log onto the TRIBBLE test server, and if you have an open character slot (I've heard that if you have more than 3 characters on TRIBBLE already, you have to delete all but 2 of them to get an open slot) then you can create a Romulan on TRIBBLE. So if…
Correct - if you've hit top tier in the Romulan Reputation on any of your other Characters, you will be able to create a Reman character when Legacy of Romulus launches. If you purchase the legacy pack, or the Reman species after launch in the c-store you will also gain access to create a Reman.
The thing that is hanging things up is that the Remans are intended to help and if they get bugged or tied up or off away from the myserious ship by the time you get there, then it is harder than intended for this early int he game. Some changes are coming to make eliminating the tal shiar non-optional so that you are…
The invites were programmatically generated based on criteria we were looking for and somewhat random from there. Round 1 of closed beta is very small and we've maxed out the capacity on TRIBBLE with queues to get in. We are going to be adding more people as we get closer to launch and there will be an open beta if you…
The Legacy of Romulus expansion is a FREE download and update to STO and anyone will be able to create a Romulan on May 21. You will be able to level a Romulan up to max level for free just like you can with the other factions. The Legacy Pack is a pre-order bundle of C-Store items that is being offered at a big discount…
We will be retiming all of the cutscenes once we hook up Voice Over dialog so that the timing matches the way the actor voiced it. Right now it is all too fast because it isn't timed to the reading.
