    I kinda doubt that....or well maybe....but it will be Empire related....don't think the Republic will get ANY love out of it. (I'm a Romulan fan by the way)

    Yea the beam in/out effect is cool, as is the overlay.

    Yet despite loving the way the tutorial was put together, I too haven't created a Discovery character.

    Neither have I. I refuse to get CBS All-access given what they did to the Stage-9 project, so I guess I won't be seeing it.

    For that matter, does Discovery happen in the Prime timeline or the Alternate one?

    I like the ship and the odd toon but that is about it I haven't allot for about a year. I watch Discovery but am not to happy with it which is kind of why I haven't played to much of STO lately

    Neither have I. And I have no reason to do so. But my toons are up to date with the traits and weaponry.
    Truth is uncomfortable most of the times. That's why you gotta face it every time.

    I have created a DISC toon (tactical) just for fun, and to run the intro.

    I share the same thoughts as Three when it comes to what STO really is, a collection of all Star Trek. They started off as a post nemesis timeline game of TNG era but they just switched direction I suppose for whatever reason to iterate every ST era in the game.

    Especially this.

    ——-

    I don’t have much love for Disco either, it doesn’t click for me. But I do love some of their ship designs, actors (obv not Burny). It’s why I decided to make Disco toon, a science career captain hybrid spec for tactical and sci. I did this just because I ain’t got anything more to do on STO either way.

    But yea, enjoy your vacation from STO!
