Made a TNG-Voy era Mirror Universe-ish version of my character. And a ToS mirror Plus some shots of my Connie

Also if you're trying to be 'canon' I found a good colour guide

Caitians?! At last something worthwhile!

I'm not to sure about the caitians yet, I think I preferred them with a mane/beard thing like in the TMP movies, here's hoping it's an option

Lionus · « **Reply #1764 on:** June 20, 2010, 06:06:14 AM »

mane would be nice

Tuskin38 · « **Reply #1765 on:** June 20, 2010, 08:50:30 AM »

Well the Caitians are already in game, 200 cryptic points I believe. The rest of the stuff is July though. They're going to try to have a Season 2 build on the Test server by July 1st.

Does this mean we may get the Kzinti as a Klingon (Or a future playable faction) race?

I just had to get the Caitian.. so I did. no manes or hair or such was disappointing though.. but he shall be my prime cruiser captain, just like my original char flies around in escort vessels only.

Damn! Well, a Caitian none the less

Indeed.

Some interesting facts and trivia.

Recently with the release of the Animated series on dvd, cbs/paramount officially announced that TAS is now CANON. That's right- it is now indisputable fact that TAS is canon to the Trek lore.

This makes the caitian race by name now complete canon, not just a assumed to be caitian because we saw cat people in 2 films,etc.

Trivia- there was an unfilmed script writtten for season 5 before cancellationm of Enterprise which was written by the man who wrote the man-kzin wars novels that later brought the kzinti and caitian races to the TAS, in which the episode would have featured both the caitians and their war with the Kzinti race.

The female cat dancer in star trek 5 the final frontier, is in fact, a female kzinti NOT a caitian. The sceenplay for Trek 5 lists her as "female kzin".

There is a rumor the kzinti will be the klingon faction answer to the caitians as a player race in sto.

I hope so, the Klingons need more DLC (well technically it isn't DLC since its already downloaded into your game)

So I've been following dev posts the STO forums (stalker!), and its confirmed that they're aiming for moving nacelles on the Intrepid + Variants when you warp for the season 2 update (they're aiming for most of it to go live tomorrow on the test server, already moved my Main over)

They're also toying with the idea of saucer separation for a Tier 5 version of the Galaxy Class. (I also read something about a Tier 5 Defiant)

As well as they've done model improvements on the Intrepid+Variants, Plain Defiant (The nose now looks like the studio model, not the crappy CG model) and Galaxy classes.

They're aiming for a July 22nd release of season 2, with the 29th being the latest if they have to delay

majormagna · « **Reply #1775 on:** July 01, 2010, 05:29:16 PM »

They're working on Tier 5 versions of Galaxy, Defiant and Intrepid classes. Unknown if they'll add new or existing variants.

Tier 5 Galaxy.. why do I get the hunch that it might be Galaxy X dreadnought..

Because Star Trek really needed a canon furry race, and letting players select it as an option totally isn't going to give the wrong ideas. :roll

What's the average time taken to hit the last 5 levels? (To get an idea of how long/short the next cap raise will take to complete)

Daystar70 · « **Reply #1778 on:** July 02, 2010, 11:22:13 AM »

tutorial to RA5 has been estimated to be possible within 2 weeks total..i think it took me from captain to ra5 a total of a week. RA1-5 took just 2 days i recall it went fast and easy.
