  • Ok, let's be honest. Those canon outfits aren't that great. Save for Marta's dress these are only skimpy wraps made for one episode. It's all about more striperific outfits, not about canon or concepts.
  • It's relevant, because outfits from shows are canon for dancers and slavegirls. I can't recall and Entertainment Officer class in STO.
  • But existing ingame Orion characters are KDF military staff. Not dancers or slavegirls. Cryptic could give female (and male) Orions some outfits inspired by TAS male soldier uniforms. But less cartoonish. There is no need for more slavegirl outfits.
  • I think in terms of striperific outfits female Orions are already "covered" enough. If anything, they could use any new KDF non-striperific uniform. People are missing the fact that all female Orions dressed that way in shows were either dancers or slavegirls. Or spies posing as ones. Our characters are supposed to be in a…
  • Arc=Steam=pretty much your personal preference. Arc already looks very Steam and it's development looks like it was going for making it more streamlined. Pick whatever you like more. If you don't like any background applications running with your game, chances are that you will not like neither Arc, nor Steam. Personally,…
  • Would be nice. And since Z-Store hips need special gimmicks to be desirable, and it makes littles ense to add special console to ships being essentially second-rate junks, maybe every of these ships would be equipped with ship selector NCP? Not with exchange or any other Tuffli/Suliban cell ship features (to not making…
  • I support this suggesstion. As they are now, both green and red jackets have very limited use. Their color shades are too vibrant. Hardest part is to match them with anything in KDF color palette. Actually, I'm skipping them entirely, buying older winter jackets instead.
  • Defiant doesn't need battle cloak. KDF equivalent of escorts are raptors, not BoPs. KDF raptors have regular cloaks. Defiant has regular cloak as well - it doesn't need anything more. It's balanced.
  • Why to build gunboats when they can't harm capital ships? And they never were able to do so in naval warfare. The same reason why IRL we have small patrols ships, instead of navies running everything with their biggest guns. For patrol and police duties, for example. Or taking out cargo crafts. ;)
  • This paragraph was added after WWII. And is quite controversial. Why? Because in all air forces military air crews are issued with side arms (yes, by all means, do let an armed enemy soldier to land on your territory :D ). No, really. Shuttles are carrying Omega molecules and it's entirely within your orders to destroy…
  • All ships in British force in the Battle of Kuantan were outdated in terms of aerial defense, but faced by airplanes far superior to anything that Allies had in early WWII. They were also armored with artillery of enemy capital ships in mind, not to endure aerial strikes. In comparison, most of aerial strikes made by…
  • Bad? Red and green winter jackets/coats are terribly oversaturated. Considering that these can't be colored in tailor, this garish color makes for costume pieces not fitting well with any existing uniform palettes. I'm using my ornaments for buying older costume pieces, because new 2013 parts are just... not very useful?…
  • I don't know sure why these changes were made. Old texture was more realistic and detailed. This new one is very cartoonish.
  • Federation already has one carrier. Atrox. This is exactly how many full-sized faction-specific carriers KDF has - Vo`Quv. Mirrov Vo`Quv it's only a variant (and not very useful one if you are controller/debuffer). To give Federtion yet nother carrier is to make them having MORE carriers than KDF. Sorry, but UFP is not a…
  • So... Federation was asking for carrier for soo long and now Atrox is not good enough? :D This thing is basically a Vo`Qov copy. Only thing your faction needs is a white Fed-styled skin for it. And you're set.
  • I'd have a very hard time choosing between KDF, Orion Syndicate or Cardassian Union.
  • Any ships classified ingame as "raider". Which ATM is KDF BoP line and Breen raider.
  • It'd ditch factions entirely. They are only making troubles, dividing playerbase, making problems with parity between factions in terms of ships and queues whatnot. Federation canon species would be in one semi-faction, but the only uniting factor for them would be an assumption that all of them are Federation and have…
  • Ships are the least problem. There is only Galor, from purely Cardassian ships. This could be handwaved by renaming it into Advanced Galor and making regular versions subpar, like free ships are subpar in console slots and boff seating. But, frankly, existing factions need more work. Both KDF and Romulans would need to be…
  • Of course it is a licenced product. I don't say it is not. By the way, how many people in this thread decided which licenced products are canon, and which are not? They are now to decide what is canon and what isn't? Why? STO is not a more or less canon than any other licenced product. Including novels and comics. No more,…
  • The most amusing part in this thread were, actually, people assuming that it was about giving Federation bikinis. Even when it was stated more than once that they would be allowed only for Fed costume options. Typical. :D Anyway, thread is more my rant at Cryptic inconsistent lore and writing. Or at faction divided…
  • I like Deferi ship designs, but they are very low on details and very generic. Actually, I do think that Deferi are just using generic "alien" ship designs. Especially their frigates.
  • T2 ship decked in purple boffs and Mk XII gear isn't exactly a T2 ship. Just saying.
  • Precisely. Which is why it's believable with Voth as well. From their point of view tyrannosaurus is probably nothing more than an animal.
  • There is a fair number of male players with female Orion characters who never had used metal bikinis. Why? Because this outfit is ridiculous and makes sense only on Risa. Someone missed fact that all Orions wearing this kind of outfit in shows were either a slavegirls, or posing as ones. Not counting one female pirate in…
  • That's the weakest and the least believable part Cryptic ever made in their ST universe. Along with Orions plain controlling Klingon Empire and nobody is having any problems with that. Can't take it seriously. It all makes sense only if she's a telepath, and J'Mpok is an Undine.
  • Why Voth would not to weaponize a dinosaur? They aren't exactly related to other dinosaurs, only to hadrosaurs. It's like wondering why Klingon should not weaponize targs. It's a livestock, and a one big and sturdy enough to be used as a weapon platform. Just because two species are reptilian and from the same planet, it…
  • What kind of space items you have equipped on your ship? Some item sets do change ships appearance. Try to right-click on your equipped shields and "disable visuals". It looks like you have item set visuals on.
  • Why is everything oversized in STO? From hand-held guns to environments and NPC? Just don't pay any attention to what is written on height sliders in tailor. Make yourself higher/taller/average in comparison with interiors and NPC models, and ignore numbers in tailor. They're wrong, they might be correct at some point in…
