Dark Side, i always try to be opposite of my normal behavior, it lets me blow off steam i cant in the real world.

Was thinking about this yesterday... I pretty much *always* play a good-guy, I suppose 'cause I like to relate to my 'character'. But I think the badguys do tend to have more fun. On the other hand, it'll kinda suck to play on a side that you know will, eventually, lose. lol Hmmm, one way on the other I'll be a jedi (it's all about the lightsaber!) so I'll wait and see precisely what force powers each side offers.

Well I agree if they're gonna be an unlockable I'm going to be straight onto that...

On the subject of the Diplomatic content, I was originally under the impression it was being included to provide an alternative progression method to the United Federation of Genocidal Maniacs approach that 95% of content currently requires. Now I'm hearing it'll be an entirely separate progression line. If that's true, does anyone know exactly how that's going to work?

I was hoping you'd be able to advance up to Admiral without vaporising quite so many people, and more in the spirit of the Federation we're used to. Considering that the game's set during war-time, I'd expect it take longer to get promoted as a scientist than as a glorious battle-veteran, but still; my main objection to STO from the beginning has been its "We come in peace, shoot to kill" ethos. I thought they were fixing that a bit, but now it sounds more like a side-quest.

So yeah, can anyone share or point me toward more details?

Don't forget the best line ever:

"I hear the water in Arkansas is very hard"

If they are locked, one thing we could do is create a "Diplomatic Corps"-specific version of the Fleet Uniform. That way, those members who have toons in the DC would be able to have a uniform that expresses both the career track and the fleet affiliation.

Light side, 100%...I just can't make myself do mean things....

Which alignment will you be for you main character?

I saw these a few days ago and thought they were very sharp. I'd love to redo these as the fleet uniform, but if they're "locked" in anyway, then they can't be. I thought from what I read was that these were "Off duty" dress option, but I don't know for sure. If these are for the diplomatic corp, I'm gonna be spanmming diplomatic missions to unlock it.

These are really sharp looking and the extra detail they are allowing in these is great. I wonder when they will be available in the game?

They're from a pic that dev posted on the forums some time ago. There is actually a post that I've lost the address for that compiled all of these pictures and they reveal a LOT of what's coming. I'll see if I can find it again and I'll post it on the boards here.

Oh, really?! Mew. :(

Source? I seem to have missed this memo entirely!

Yes, I think this uniform is only useable after a person has met certain in game requirements, like 'x' amount of diplomatic missions, so it would be difficult to make it a fleet uniform.

This is the Diplomatic Corps uniform that is being proposed. I definitely think it would be great if Stonewall Fleet had a version of this for its diplomat members!

Not sure of the provenance of this pic, but loving the new style coming in... Any chance, where it's released, we could consider revising the official Stonewall Uniform to incorporate these new jackets? I like the current one, but it's a little too 'regular' uniform compared to these.

Very pretty trailer. If only the movies had action sequences like that.

Thank you so much for the invitation! I will be sure and let my fleet know about the festivities.

I look forward to seeing this endeavor flourish into a lasting alliance.

Hey there Rayne,

It's always great to meet members of other fleets. We'll be glad to work out some sort of diplomatic relationship with your fleet and ours.

I just wanted to take a few minutes and invite your fleet to our Pride celebrations coming up next weekend. We'd love to see your fleet there! Check out www.stonewallfleet.com/pride for all the details.

Greetings Admiral Rayne,

Thank you for extending your hand to us in friendship and alliance. I am Admiral Kaaleb and I am the Ambassador of Stonewall Fleet. Unlike other fleets, we do not have a formal process. I much prefer having dialogue in game and getting to know the other ambassador and get a feel for the other fleet before I commit to anything.

Feel free to seek me out in game and when we both have time, we can chat somewhere :)

Kaaleb or T'Laris @bradley1701

Peace and long life,

I think they're trying to express the blood bond between drinker and drinkee transcends sexual orientation.

That being said...check out this HOT still from last week's ep:
