Not surprised about Bran tbh. It's a case of the "left foot, not knowing what the right foot is doing". Then again, i'm absolutely certain that Cryptic will find some way to completely screw it up when it goes live. Like most new features to the game, it's released "half-baked". Not quite ready, and never completed.

Lol, I can see it now;
"Player spawns in CSE
Player - "WTF?! Why am I in a centaur?!?!""

Btw, have any of you guys seen any romulan boff recruitment doff assignments lately? There's no mention of them on stowiki anymore and I haven't seen one in more than a month...

They're currently testing a FAW fix internally and it will be either in the next Tribble update or the one after.

Also you don't even need to put the tags, it automatically does it for links

FAW is fixed on tribble, I've heard reports of it being fixed atleast.

Tour the Galaxy has been turned into a daily. Mostly the same, they added Tau Dewa and now you get rewards for every Sector block you visit (Sirius, etc): http://puu.sh/6uLlV.jpg http://puu.sh/6uKVk http://puu.sh/6uKVb

I thought that you always got rewards for every block you toured? At least, afaik it did so once you have visited every sector of a block. Or is this something other than EC, like it used to give?

Haha all the rage on the STO Forums because the Anniversary Ship is a Reputation project

Branflakes gave some reasoning saying that this year's ship is better then the last 2.
Plus the first time you play the Anniversary episode you will get 400 of the rep-commendations meaning you only need to run the event 15 times instead of 25, and there will be Lobi options for more of them.

Apparently it is a "Science ship only half the time"

There will also be giveaways coming up like during the summer event

oh for fucks sake, MORE rep projects? -.-

Tuskin38 · « **Reply #4690 on:** January 23, 2014, 03:18:06 PM »

You're acting surprised, I said it was a rep-project two pages ago.

Edit: Ok I didn't outright say they were a rep-project but I said the file names had reputation in their names.

Joshmaul · « **Reply #4691 on:** January 23, 2014, 06:53:46 PM »

It does make a certain degree of sense. If they're making as big a deal about these new rides as it's implied, they're not just gonna give them away - you have to "wanna", so to speak.

The new Hirogen Battleship model is based off this

Okay, now those hirogen boats I like. That rusty look to them is awesome. I wonder if we'll be able to use the old apex model instead of the new one if we want...the old apex model is really nice as well.

Tuskin38 · « **Reply #4696 on:** January 24, 2014, 12:43:22 PM »

The old model is also used as a Battleship for the random aliens in the exploration clusters.

First, new DevBlog: http://sto.perfectworld.com/news/?p=1085061

One suggested by SFC.

Reasons for his uniform

In regards to the uniform, we definitely wanted to use the original costume for promotional purposes. That said, the team is still considering an appropriate uniform for the game.

Cheers,

Brandon =/\=

Something about that face just seems off. I can't put my finger on it though. Maybe it's the pose, or maybe its the expression. I don't know.
That's a craaaazy big set of controls in the background of the 2nd shot lol. It's almost as if cryptic doesn't want to make decently scaled sets, even for cutscenes!

That devblog is great though. That's the sort of thing I'd like to see in future!

I think he looks angry. Or grouchy. Something like that.

And yeah, the scale has always bothered me.
