Beef you really should have read the guide first then created this thread since the devs already have the third and most of the fourth avatars planned out. Though not for the three races that yet have to be added/added back in in the case of the Noxtor(FO native 8472 style race). And most of your ideas have already been repeatedly shot down anyways.

Caps are exactly what it says. For example you can only build 8 Avalons because they are capped at 8.

I ve got some questions you guys.
1.The third avatars are gona be implemented after the faction redos or even later?
2.Will every faction get a redo? I heared about the borg obviously and the feds.

The avatars will be implemented when the devs fleshed them out.. could be right with the faction redos or later or may be even earlier.

And there are redos planned for every faction and the project progress says there are new (individual for each race most likely) gameplay features planned for each faction.

Geez guys, give the new members a break.  They sound like some good ideas, and so what if he didn't read the guide.  Not everyone reads it, and you don't have to read it to post ideas.  What are you guys, the guide police?  :detective:

Personally I am a Voyager fan and think Kathryn Janeway was a great Captain under the circumstances no other Captain had anything close they all had Starfleet Support and not far away from help and allies Janeway was 70 years from help. In any case I'll ignore the crap people say about the series die to their short sightliness.

I think the ideass in this thread are quite good. It would be nice to see Worf and Janeway and even Sela as avatar options.

If we'd ignore the famous/loved/hated/whatever names of known ST-characters, I'd come down to the ideas (except for the Dominion-cardassian-alliance) themselves.

I think besides the turret, the federation-ideas are great.. the nano-warheads would make an excellent  and truly characteristic federation-borg-mixed-tech element.

A Borg-avatar that concentrates mainly on destructive power with one slot less on the cutting beam and a slight reduction of CC-requirements on the most expensive ships is a great idea too; the reduction for CC comes into play laaaaaaaate in the game but would be very useful then.
The small sphere would also be very much believable since the Borg have a small cube, too.

No. No! NOOOOOOOO!

Janeway has violated basically everything the federation and starfleet stand for, and she becomes admiral and even more honoured? That's as if you would promote the worst traitor ever to highest ranks.

There's only one thing Janeway belongs into: A prison. Not the great FO-game.

I disagree with this statement Janeway deserved everything she got as she didnt give up where any other captain even the great picard would have she survived everything that was thrown at her i think she was the greatest captain there ever was

Cant say I agree with that. I don have any grudges against Janeway but she wasnt superior to any other captain, almost any starfleet captain would have tried to get home, and at least her ship was a bit more able bodied then others, you think she would have done any better then poor Ransom had she been in command of his ship? I doubt it. Altho I would love to see how Kirk and crew did on the way home, the Borg would have run in fear the second he lost his shirt Truthfully, besides the Borg and a couple other factions, the whole delta quadrent was hick country, Voyager was vastly superior to most of the races they ran into and the Intrepid class isnt even a federation ship of the line, the biggest thing Janeway had to worry about was Janeway herself, she just couldnt resist flying that ship into every orifice the delta quadrent had! And if Janeway would have minded her own buisness more often they would have had it pretty easy.

I checked the storyline and its says it might change, so stop hassling me about that!

And they haven't done the 3rd and 4th avatar yet, maybe my idea will get them thinking at least, maybe they'll even use some of it.

Since the dominion war is over then i'll have to change the story about cardassians, but I don't think I will have to remove it... Just put in that some "house" of the ex cardassian empire decided to stay with the dominion or something like that...

I like the borg avatar idea

well that is crude statement... did you never see TOS and TNG.. quite a few Hick civilisations there.. anyway i seem to recall quite a few powerful civilisations in the Delta quadrant. like the Vidiians Hirogens and those cloaked bug people civilisation. That dauntless civilisations looked Quite high tech to me.

Not to mention that you miss a lot of plot armor on  voyager. if the show was about the Equinox, it would have similar plot armor

Yes I have seen all of TOS and TNG, and I never said there werent alpha quadernt hicks, but do you thing Voyager ever would have made it trying to cut through Klingon or Romulan space? And yes there are some advanced races in the delta quadrent but for the most part they seemed to be lagging behind technologically compared to the AQ races. Yes the Hirogen have powerful ships but they needed several of them to subdue Voyager, and same for the Vidians. You look at the DQ and you seem to have lots of smaller empires trying to hold their own where as the AQ has several vast empires that have more tech and resources. Granted plot armor does help alot.

And on a side not, unfortunatley its hard to compare TOS to the other shows because they changed so much going from TOS to TNG. I mean when you look at TOS the way they describe the destructive capability of the Enterprise, they basically state the ship could obliterate an entire planet surface with its firepower with ease, now skip ahead to TNG era and you have a combined romulan and cardassian fleet fire on a planet and only damage 20 percent of its surface. I love TOS but back then they had a tendency to go overboard with alot of their assesments and measurements.

and somehow, Voyager didn't go overboard with alot of their assesments and measurements?

Dear Beef,

  Don't let these guys and their attitudes about your post squash your creativity .  Many people have strong feelings about the future of Fleet Ops and assume whatever people post is somehow going to happen unless they stop it .

  Don't worry about their criticisms, don't worry about their rants, just keep being creative .

  Love,

Compared to TOS not nearly as much, oh they had their moments but alot of thing became more "standardized" in TNG and carried on through subsequent shows, for the most part.
