That really makes me want to buy the pack just for lols (and the defiant interior)

The only thing I don't like about the Defiant interior is that the sounds aren't quite right, specifically the door sounds.  And I guess anyone can just stroll into the Captain's cabin at will lol

I love the Chaffee shuttle, too bad shuttles are worthless in combat.

they're fun if you organize a PVP shuttle only event with a few people.

If you want to test the Bajor Ground early, set up a foundry mission on tribble that has you talk to a contact there and hit 'test mission' should start you on the ground.

Bajor is now a pretty blue planet.  And oh lord was it crowded when I showed up in my Type 10 shuttle.  And the poor thing is tiny next to the Odyssey-class.

Not exactly big next to the Defiant-class, either - but then again, that's the idea, heh.

I -might- be tempted into buying the Defiant pack at some point, just to get rid of the awfully "concert hall"-sized interiors that are default. Also, would really love to get my hands on the Admiral's uniform, which should've been a part of the "DS9 Uniform Pack" in the first place.

But that will have to wait until I can get together enough Dilithium (and convert to C-points), since I have no intention of giving Cryptic any more of my cash until they fix some of the fundamental flaws of the game, and start producing content on a regular basis again.

That's at least 300,000 dilithium.  Have fun with that.

I'd like some of the stuff they have but I'd really rather not give them the money.  I've blown enough on those goddamned master keys!

They got my money.  :P  And why even bother with the damn Cardie lock boxes?  I sold some once, but the last batch I got, I just jettisoned out the airlock.

Well, i've got 4 fairly well-geared characters that can each run STFs, and do the Exploration daily (about 2500 dilithium for each character per day). Plus, i'm in no hurry.

I'm not even picking them up anymore.  I'm not having anything more to do with PWEs thinly veiled lottery scam!

I'm not picking them up from the standpoint that they drop EVERYWHERE, for EVERYBODY. Lowbies, highbies, missions, STFs, ground, space....GAH! Enough! It's almost as bad as the Galor spam itself!

Agreed.  I don't need to know every single person who gets a Galor.

So the new FE episode was fun, I liked it. Lots of back story and hints as to where the Fleet Came from (I mean most players already knew, but its exposition for your captain)

Also I think Jon St. John did a voice... Seriously there is a Klingon character that sounds just like him.

I see you noticed that too; I think he was supposed to be the 2270 B'Vat we run into in "Past Imperfect". I did a mild double-take when I heard his voice, it's like "Whoa, when did Duke Nukem get into this game?"

I know it was B'Vat, I was trying to be vague as not to spoil anything :P
