Hello Captains!

Please post your questions below and dStahl will answer selected questions from all those received. Please post them today as I will ship questions off to Dan tomorrow.

Also, remember that questions will not be answered in this thread -- answers will be posted in an upcoming "Ask Cryptic" Web Feature that will be released in September.

Cheers,

Questions that our EU players have asked/ translated to English:


flottenkommando
Would it be possible to define the alert state of our ships and fleet starbase ourselves? (Ex.: Green Alert: no shields, weapons deactivated; Yellow: shields active, weapons not active; Red: shields and weapons active, personnel on battle station)

starcrow1701
When will there be shuttle hangars? Will there be new shuttle missions?
Will the fleet base system be visually upgraded at some point? Will there be new interiors?
Will old ship models be revised?

ajowi
Could you implement an option to use/transfer a skin on another item? Ex.: Using the M.A.C.O but displaying a Reman shield)

saphiromega
Could you please integrate an LCARS interface? That would spice up interaction instead of just hitting one button over and over.

julianjcarry
Would it be possible to be able to use multiple C-Sore ships at the same time? Ex.: Have Tetryon Defiant, Plasma Defiant, Phaser Defiant without converting

maddinm214
Can we get the original LCARS at some point?

Any plans to have more diverse designs of starbases, i.e. possibility to choose between project A and B with different outcome. Could it be possible to choose the weapons of the starbase? Any exterior design projects planned like being able to add the fleet?s logo?
About the players that don?t contribute at all to STFs or fleet events ? are you doing something to stop that or penalize them in any way?
Any plans to have cross-promotions between the Cryptic games, i.e. players playing STO and CO getting some kind of bonus item in the other game?

Will it be possible to land on freely visitable planets with certain ships choosing whether to land automatically or manually?
Could we have some kind of honorary event for Gene Roddenberry, e.g. featuring the Glorious Heritage Class?

The Elite STFs are way too easy with a mediocre group. Could you raise the/add another difficulty and appropriate rewards? Also, could you add the option to choose fleet marks as reward?
About PvP: Why don?t you add features that don?t require a lot of resources like new rewards, point acquisition depending on everyone?s individual effort, queues with mixed teams? What are your specific dates/milestones for your work on PvP?
Any chance to be able to customize the HUD?
Any chance to add more fleet mark rewards?
