CAPTAIN'S BLOG

5) Why can't I use my Medical Personnel to heal my Injuries?
6) Why can't I use my Engineering Personnel to repair my Ship?
7) Why can't Romulans display their Trophies on their Romulan Ships?

I'm sure the List goes on.

You have some great ideas Attilio! After reading them the only thing I could think of was to customize my crew's uniforms :P

If anything that just came to mind, I'd move the internal missions and career specific DOff missions to a console. That way *my captain* is selecting missions for DOffs, versus talking through an NPC to set them up.

I like your ideas on both exploration, and this as well! I've wanted more to do in our interiors since I started playing the game. The Defiant interior looks awesome, so why wouldn't you want to spend time in there???

On a side note, it would be nice if the devs made the Captain's Table more useful... but that is another discussion.

I would also love to be able to customize the interiors. Choose the chairs...the carpet color...etc...etc.

I wish all unique ships(lockbox,lobi,etc) had expanded bridges. So bridges beyond just the helm of the ship, so-to-speak. In addition to that, I'm with TacPaddy. I will be honest though, Atillio... As much as I LOVE your first suggestion.... its pretty much copying SWTOR with the galaxy map and everything.

I'm the first to admit that my writing is godawful, but I wish there was some way to share my Captain's Log entries, in a similar way that your character's bio can be accessed by others.

I'd also like to design my crew's uniforms, not just that of the bridge crew.

personally I would like the them to do away with with some of these forms of monetary value

we have:

EC
Dilithium
Lobi crystals
Fleet credit

now to have projects we need so much stuff that the grind for special equipment is soooo time consuming. I can understand that there has tobe a grind to keep us coming back but the Dilithium requirements are too much.

I wish that the its would be less/gone and perhaps higher EC cost?

thoughts anyone?

thanks!

I'd love to see more use of the interiors - it would be great to be able to fight off a boarding party on your ship using the interior maps, for instance - but I think it would be hard to implement.

The problem with using the interiors for in-game content is their variability. Federation ships have three possible interiors for their crew and engineering decks - which of these should content be based on? Or should it content be created for each? If it's created for the small map, then the large map will be too spread out, whereas if content is based on the larger map, the small map will be too crowded - in my boarding action scenario, for instance, if you had the same number of mobs on the small map as were on the large one, you'd be pulling threat constantly.

Personally, if it was possible, I'd like to see a specific interior for each ship class or each ship type; for instance, all Exploration Cruisers could have the same interior map, perhaps with cosmetic changes rather than a different layout depending on which saucer and hull were selected. However, without content to use the maps for, I can't see Cryptic spending the time to build them.

if you bought the fleet odyssey ship why you can't get the bridge of the odyssey cruiser. I find it weird or other wise i don't have the odyssey bridge on the fleet odyssey cruiser,

I'd like to see more doff missions that can only be picked up inside the ship. I used to go inside for random mkxii consoles all teh time, but now that we can make our own consoles to taste, I don't do it nearly as much.

I love the first set of suggestions, especially the holodeck as a mission replay, and the healing of crew, though I could see having to dry dock for repairs. Maybe slower repairs in space. I think my main want is the customization of the crew uniforms and composition. Ideally I'd love to see your crew made up of your doffs, wearing your uniform design. Maybe limit them to the bar area (so empty when out) and generic crew for engineering. Even cooler if your assigned boffs were in their assigned areas on the ship. Also add bank to ship. All these should bear in mind the idea of self sufficient ships exploring space, not running back to earth with every mission.

I agree with everyones ideas they all should be put outline a test system. Redshirt. I would love to. Also be in my ship just like the TV showd

Also, WHY DO THE INTERIORS HAVE TO BE SO HUGE? I understand that it might be easier to program, more user-friendly, but there is NO continuity of scale with the shows and movies.

My question is:
If i am in my ship in sector space and decide to go to the bridge of my ship. Why do I beam into my ship's bridge? Shouldn't my character already be on the bridge of the ship? That also raises the question of 'why do I beam out of my bridge to return to sector space?

Right, the animation is wrong you should sit down, and pan out to your vessel in space, or pan in to you standing up from the captains chair.

Also, where is a list of possible different ship interiors?
