Ten forward weekly du 25 août 2021

Citation :: Having lots of discussion internally over keeping the tokens as drops, but lowering the drop rate.

Don't expect a change soon. Have to see how this change effects the dil economy before they make another change.

Vanity shield promotion isn't kept around all the time because more people go of it if its limited time, so that helps the economy more.

Decision to go forward with the token change came somewhat suddenly after having spent time getting it ready to go beforehand. Blog would have gone out a week earlier had Kael known about it. Doesn't think announcing the change the day before was the best approach.

Vanity shield event likely to happen again since they know people like it.

As an example of how long concepts can take from idea to coming out, Kael mentions Al Rivera was talking about cloning L'rel, and having J'ula do her face turn, around 3 years ago. Maybe slightly earlier then that.

Ship development process is a couple weeks long for each team working on it(art team spends a few weeks on it, systems team spends a few weeks making the stats, etc)

New systems, like new ways to spend dilthium, takes a few week for systems, and about a week from programmers/UI artists to make the interface to buy it.

Temporal Recruit will be in time for Star Trek's 55th on September 8th.

Someone asked if it was possible for a Mudd's bundle with DSC Section 31 and Mirror ships. Kael said its possible, but wouldn't happen soon.

Talked about the Red Alert event errors. Jared(producer) scheduled the Red Alert. Kael and Thomas did their normal things not knowing it was a one week event, so put up the blog/loading screen for the longer Red Alert Event, instead of the shorter one, since they had only been running the longer ones recently.

Mentioned that since remote work started about half the team has moved to Texas, and there are no plans to go back to the physical studio any time soon, which has caused communication issues.

QA is looking over the blog as well.

Ship release schedule, and the number of ships coming out, changes year to year, but theres almost 30 ships planned for this year(not for the rest of this year, this year in total)

Kael has asked about Competitive marks in PVP matches. Recalls they weren't put into PVP possibly to prevent people from cheesing the marks with the ways you can cheese PVP. Though hes not 100% sure thats the reason.

Someone asked about an Italian translation for STO. Kael says thats on Perfect World who have cut down localization on their games.

Someone asked about the Nova. Always a chance for a new Nova. ship interiors unlikely unless they are used in a mission for the same reasons we know.

Cryptic has generally moved to putting out higher quality stuff, instead of as much stuff, for awhile now.

No word yet on playable DSC Andorians or Tellarites.

Some of the people who were on Magic Legends did come back to STO.

Working on fixing a few known broken ship animations.

We can shoot new ship/systems ideas to the devs, but due to legal reasons they can't read most of them.

L'rell will be the contact for new Klingon missions going forward.

Kael will ask about making some of the old toys/novelty prizes from lockboxes available somewhere else.

Kael will asking his superiors at Perfect World why Egyptian players can't play the game.

Eisenberg class coming soonish? Not that long, but longer then some may want.

No plans for a Mirror Recruit event.

Will ask about being able to buy away the patrol cooldown(someone suggested it)

A Star Trek actor pitched a story idea to Cryptic. It was something they were already thinking of, and they will be in the upcoming arc.

Next actor showing up isn't new to STO, but we haven't seen them in awhile.

Next story arc is going to be the story arc for the considerable future

Early Fall 2021 is a "good estimate" for the next story arc

TOS rerun will be simulations on consoles(based on KAel saying yes to something a user asked)

Will pass on ideas to see if T5 ships that can't go T5U be given the ability to upgrade, and removing the Obelisk/Dyson fused weapons, with dil.

No new alien races involved in the upcoming story

They are in negotiations for representation in Star Treks 55th anniversary event

Some stuff is happening to character models

Winter ship will not be Breen or Fek'Ihri

Picard 2385 uniforms are closer then they were before

Have considered upgrading crafting for more then just dil sinks, since they want R&D packs to be worth something other then the ships you get out of them. Keeps coming up in meetings, but their other stuff happens and it gets pushed to the side.

Will pass on XBO graphics issues

Keal doesn't expect new fleet projects for awhile

Will ask about transcendent jacks/swears for Winter event

Will check on the Delta Recruit admiralty Rank 10 box not being openable now due to pass tokens being made dil

Fixing GPL is a lesser priority to fixing dil, since GPL isn't breaking the economy being the way it is

Will ask about putting discount coupons in the Phoenix Box

Kael says making the dilithum refine amount account wide is a good idea, but he has no idea if it would happen

Will look into Warriors of the Empire/A Day Long Remembered missing VA

Someone asked about "special zen" that could be taded between games. Kael said that would require permissions above even their CEO's head

Someone suggested an ship upgrade that gives us a ensign specialist slot. Kael said it might be a good idea

Kael once had an April fools joke weapon idea called the Photonic Temporal Warhead(PTW) where the more GPL you spent on it the more damage it did

No plans to revamp Romulan storyline to bring it more in-line with Picard

Originally there was canon reasoning behind not having Roms in Fed uniforms. Since that has changed maybe Cryptic can change it in-game.

someone asked about weekly ship rentals for Dil. Keal really likes the idea, and thinks it would be good for the health of the game, but guesses it would take a lot to implement

Will likely get stuff from Prodigy, but may take a while, like Lower Decks stuff, due to its animated nature.

Cryptic is working on Lower Decks stuff right now, but Kael can't tell us what

Kael has campaigned on getting the Bonnie Kin mission added as a Halloween event, but Cryptic wants to remaster it before they do so

Might be possible to increase stack limit on batteries

Ultimate tech upgrades in the Phoenix Pack on epic is an interesting idea

The newspapers in the lockboxes was an idea someone had that they thought was funny, so they did them.

La plupart des trucs ne sont pas très intéressant.

Outre le fait qu'ils examinent la possibilité du retour des tokens "gratuits" mais après une évaluation de l'impact des dernières mesures prises (bref, on l'a dans l'os), le seul truc vraiment intéressant est le retour du recrutement TOS qui devrait être prêt pour le 55ème anniversaire de Star trek (bref pour le 8 septembre).

Un autre chose digne d'intérêt est le fait que le prochain vaisseau d'hivernel ne sera ni Breen ni Fel'kiri.

Quant au reste, c'est beaucoup de blah blah pour ne quasiment rien dire.

Plutôt impatient de découvrir le nouvel Arc. "Début de l'automne", c'est bientôt !

Les 55 ans de la franchise le 8 septembre, avec le retour du recrutement temporel, ce pourrait être l'occasion parfaite pour offrir l'Eisenberg (puisqu'apparemment celui-ci doit arriver assez vite).

Ouai, je sais, mais j'ai décidé qu'ils n'oseraient pas vu que c'est un vaisseau hommage à Aron Eisenberg Very Happy

"Next story arc is going to be the story arc for the considerable future"

je suis content mais d'un coté j'me dis qu'ils vont encore se la couler douce comme pour l'année des klingons ...

Wait and see, au moins ça sera un nouvel arc

Bla bla bla bla bla ........ voila ce que je retient de cette discussion, du vent et zéro issue pour l'élément principal du jeu, le joueur lui-même.

Enfin si, cela me rappelle une petite histoire de légumes.
La courgette est le légume qui contribue le mieux pour la mémoire et vous savez pourquoi?

Et oui beaucoup de blah blah en effet Laughing

Perso, je ne sais pas pourquoi mais je sens bien un p'tit pack mudd TOS pour les 55 ans de STO en parallèle avec l'event de recrutement TOS. Et pour bien faire chier les joueurs qui l'ont pris récemment
avec le token de l'event, on y retrouverait l'atlas/d9/thrai (pour l'infinity box), le D7/enterprise/t'liss tempo (pour le r&d box) et soit le walker soit le tholian iktomi (pour le lobi store. Dans le lobi, il y a moins de choix pour un vaisseau TOS, j'ai donc pris ce qui serait le plus proche de cette époque et qui n'est pas encore sorti dans un pack mudd. Il y a éventuellement le xindi ateleth vu que les xindi font partie de l'époque d'archer et que la console du NX fait partie du set avec l'atlas mais ça commence à être un peu éloigné).
