Is this planet killer dialogue from the revamped missions?

Is this planet killer dialogue from the revamped missions?

It is used in dialogue in the new Undine Assault STF currently on tribble, and the patch notes. The final boss of the run is a big Undine ship, though they say that is place holder ATM.

Also a new use for Latinum in the STF, if you happen to get Ferenginar as the planet you're defending you can bribe Ferengi ships for buffs.

Other possible planets are Gornar, Andor, and Cardassia.

All the planets have their species ships as defence forces, except Andor.

Judging by dialogue at the start they're probably going to be Kumaris in the final release. It mentions something about them being defended by an "Honour Guard" but not to worry because they use Starfleets most advanced equipment. Andor is currently using Armitages as all their defence craft and they all launch 6 fighters, so there is a lot of fighter spam in the mission.


The big tentacle monster in the background is the planet killer.

This planet-killer thing looks like something out of Homeworld.

The new Mirror event in pretty fun IMO

[Darkthunder]

Gotta agree there. Certainly alot more fun than the Crystalline Entity event.

[captain_obvious]

It's a hell of a lot of fun.

I like how it actually requires teamwork and is a bit of a challenge on Elite.

Also Obisek, everyone loves Obisek! Vauthil is Romulan for "triumph, victory" according to http://www.spsims.com/english2romulan.htm which makes sense.

If anything, this new Mirror Invasion is a preview for the brand new Season 9 content like Undine Assault and whatever they throw at us.

More like Babylon 5

I hope they keep the new Mirror Invasion after the "event" is over, just as they did with the reintroduction of the Crystalline Entity. Rumor has it, that the Mirror Invasion event will be going away entirely after the event.

Sadly, I do remember a dev posting that the map will be gone after the event is over and will be recycled for use as a later Mirror Event, like Crystalline Entity.

I really DO hope they consider keeping it in.

I hope so too.  I hope that they *at least* keep it around as a periodic event.  Double XP buff with this map would be pretty epic for xp!

I really did think they were going to do Double XP and Mirror Event during the same week, but they didn't.

Oh well next time perhaps!

new ESD interior on tribble, no images yet, patch notes only just went up

I don't have the Tribble build downloaded. Any chance for some images from various locales in the new ESD?

you posted that as I finished this post

The interior is amazing, have some Screenshots. Remember it is still WIP and everything is subject to change. Club 47 isn't finished, it isn't even in the map yet, but it is coming.

ESD Exterior model is not getting an update but the map itself is getting a touch up.

It should come with Season 9

Main Room, the Latin says "Let us boldly go to the stars - On the wings of the faithful" It has around 200 silver stars representing the crew of the first Federation Starship destroyed.





Transporter room


Exchange


Sickbay


Heavily WIP Shuttle Bay, may not even be in the final version, depends if they finish it. Will not be accessible, it is only for show.


Commodities shop


Armoury, Mannequins are placeholder


Tailor and Dressing room



Quinn's Office


Reverse Shot


Out the window

[Nebula]

you posted Quinn's office twice.

[Darkthunder]

Amazing interiors (seriously). Thanks for the pics posting.

It seems (lore-wise), Starfleet was atleast partially inspired by the DS9 interiors (Ops and Promenade areas especially)

[Tuskin38]

you posted Quinn's office twice.

Whoops, thats suppose to be the transporter room, fixed

I didn't take an image of it, but there is a little area in the main room that seems to have been inspired by the observation room seen in Search for Spock

[Darkthunder]

I have to say thou, whoever these new environment artists are that they've hired, certainly outdid themselves (judging by the pics).
