So how have they improved it since I left? I'm not actually sure WHEN I left, that might make answering that question more difficult :D

I found away missions to be my biggest issue - they were long, boring and had little reward...... have they improved that? I certainly don't expect it, but you never know :D

To name a few off the top of my head -
- new ships, new ranks, new Undine and Borg missions
- new season arcs including the Breen and Devidians
- Diplomacy ranks and missions
- Klingons have new story missions and more sectors opened up
- A load of new daily missions
- New emblems for MkXI gear
- Lots of fleet changes

Tomorrow - new sector space and warp trails, plus a more realistic economic model

Shortly after the New Year - The Foundry for developing user generated content, two new season arcs in romulan and I think cardassian space.

Next year - Mass Effect style ground combat and additions to PvP

I sure did. The new story arc missions have been a lot more creative and include RPG elements that depend on your class of captain e.g. tactical, science etc. In addition some of the episodes have medical type puzzles and all kinds of fun. Shame the rest of the STO missions weren't like these.
 
have they said about foundry going live yet? Althought i know what im doing in foundry now, it seems abit silly doing too much as you have to re do it completely when it goes onto holodeck
 
As far as I am aware there has been no official announcement of when it is going to hit the holodeck. I have dabbled a little, but it seems pointless when everything is going to get wiped anyway after testing. Hopefully it won't be too far away. With the interest it has received from the community I should imagine most people are testing it, so getting the bugs out shouldn't take too long. I did read a dev post somewhere that they still have a lot to add to it, but hopefully they can do this after it has been officially released.

Up for some raids this weekend assuming they add the Borg rewards tomorrow? Can't wait to see the patch list tomorrow - it is going to take a while to read through!
 
Why do people want to put shoddy borg parts on their ships? It ruins the ships and is not canon?

(The voyager parts were removed after two episodes)

They look cool in some of the screenshots presented, but I should imagine there will only be 5 or so parts that can be applied to the outside of each ship and they will all start to look silly. Of course, it will probably end up being an "I completed all of the raids" type sticker that you can put on your ship. I will want them mainly for the stat bonus - one of the devs did say that there will be other means of acquiring them eventually. I hope so because I really don't enjoy the raids in their current form.
 
Their has been changes to the mechanics of Away missions and also upcoming apparntely a shift to more 1st Person for away missions.

Also with upcoming missions and user created missions, a lot of very different away missions will appear rather thats fighting, story, diplomatic etc.
 
It has to be said that an awful lot of the missions, even among the new story arc missions, still involve running from group to group of bad guys and shooting them. The difference is that with the new types interspersed here and there you don't mind the old type as much :)
 
Favourite additions tomorrow? A new font that makes everything look a lot more "Star Trek", new sector space and the removal of sprint cooldowns. Can't wait for the list tomorrow! Watch this space, in the meantime...


 
Have you not noticed the font of all text is completely different in tribble vs holodeck? It is one of the things the devs commented on a while back. While a very minor change, I like it :)
