A TAS event would be nice. I guess if it ends up being a tribbles event, at least that could include some TAS characters.
TAS is under represented. Just judging by that, I suspect that all the other series will get a mega event before they do one for TAS. I hope Enterprise and Voyager were your next choices so you can get those out of the way sooner.

I’m not a fan of toons in the game, but if there is a lot of support, then so be it.
Same here. Guess I would just sit back and watch that mega go by
I think they have done an amazing job bringing the rather flat and poorly-detailed artwork from TAS and making it look amazing in-game, particularly Lucien and Thelin.

And Rescue Team Uhura
Why was Vicki not expelled from Greendale after she literally stabbed Pierce in the face with a pencil?!?!?
I was uninspired by the options presented in the survey, especially since the theme is not necessarily indicative of the crew that would be introduced during the mega event in most cases (Voyager & Enterprise being the exceptions).
Tribbles - this could be as simple as tribbles appearing everywhere in the galaxy, which opens the door to any crew
Ceti Alpha - I know Khan is popular, but didn't we already have an augment-themed mega (the very one with controversy about event title/theme not equating to specific crew introductions)?
Summer Vacation - though some obvious options spring to mind (Sisko on the beach), having something disrupt vacation also opens the door to just about any crew
Ceti Alpha - I know Khan is popular, but didn't we already have an augment-themed mega (the very one with controversy about event title/theme not equating to specific crew introductions)?
Indeed we did...that mega was what really set off the firestorm of what “Augment” really means (political affiliation versus racial trait) and who really deserves to have it. That being said, that event was also blended with DS9 crew while Khan himself, one of the most iconic villains of all of Trek, had somewhat of a backseat role in the whole thing. Aside from my Warlord Khan crew idea, we could conceivably get Survivalist Khan as a recurring legendary who is finally making his move to secure Augment supremacy with the help of the other Augments who were either exiled to Ceti Alpha V:
Other crew we could get might be the long-awaited Captain Terrell, Raakin, the rest of the Jack Pack, Stavos Keniclius, and Udar.
I’ve been playing this game for over 3 and a half years and been a frequent reader on the boards for the same amount of time. Most of the posters here are about a million times smarter than me (I just figured out how to log on here for gods sake) and have made a lot of suggestions to make this game better over the years (some answered, some not).
My two cents:
In my opinion the game option with the least amount of problems with the best results are voyages (not perfect, but what is).
I would suggest a more in depth version of them:
A breakdown
A 30-50 character crew depending on ship
utilizing all colored crew
All golds and purples officers
All blues and greens secondary crew
All greys ensigns
Instead of just 2 of each skill
Choose your:
Admiral
Captain
First Officer
Operations Officer
Tactical / Security Officer
Chief Engineer
Chief Medical Officer
Helmsman
Science Officer
Communications Officer
Diplomat / Ambassador / Dignitary
The next ten would fill up the same catagories but be necessary for smaller tasks that would occur on the voyage
The next ten would be the same
You could have shuttle missions include shuttle missions and skirmishes that occur as dilemmas at the end of every two hours where you would need specific crew designed for that issue thus utilizing all crew so they aren’t just wasting away in our vaults
You could even have runabouts that could be specialized shuttles sent out for special rewards such as dilithium, premium pulls and such, but need very specific crew for that such as unlocking certain nods in the game story
Also you could break it down further depending on what ship you use, how well it does, how long it can go into a voyage, crew capacity, type of mission (rescue, medical, escort, etc.), skill, you could even break it down into a faction.
Example:
Borg Cube
50 crew
must be all borg (I realize there aren’t 50 borg crew in game I’m just thinking down the road)
tactical mission, many skirmishes and battles
high volume of anti matter, longer voyage without refresh
most dilemmas are science, engineering and security oriented
can run a lot of shuttle missions for useful items
And so on...
In the interest of brevity I will end it here, just wanted to post this and let the smarter people toss it around maybe it sticks or it’s tossed aside as nonsense
I have other suggestions for it but it would need about 4 more paragraphs and I have no idea how it’ll be received so I’ll end it here and see what happens

I’m all for making more use of crew. And I like the way you have the slots set up, although I don’t think regular ship voyages have an Admiral. I would think the top officer would be the captain. It would be awesome to flesh out your bridge crew according to your likes versus to hit numbers. Perhaps that can just be added to the skill pool. You get MED/COM, SCI/DIP, and every once in a while you can get Captains choice.
Not Voyager again. I'll never see Risa Picard. Or Archer. Or Sato. Or Leeta. Or Bashir. Enterprise would have been great too, it's severely underrepresented imo. You can't have too many T'Pols.
Tribbles might have been everyone's first or last choice, whereas Voyager might have been everyone's second choice and won because of it (everyone as in "lots of people").
I didn't expect it either, but I'm a huge Voyager fan and it looks like we will probably get a new version of Kes, so I'm very happy about it
I should have probably come here to post right after taking the survey, because now I can't remember 100% what my ranking order was But this is a close enough guess:
1) None of these
2) Ceti Alpha
3) Voyager
4) Enterprise
5) Tribbles
6) Summer Vacation
The fact that the survey was strictly multiple choice kinda caught me off guard...I had expected an option to pitch an idea of my own (hence "None of these"). I imagined an event called "Save the Red Shirts!", revolving around a theme of preventing casualties within the ranks of one's security team. Special bonuses would be gained by using crew members who famously wore red but still managed to survive (Uhura, Scott, DeSalle, Rand, etc). Perhaps a new version of McCoy could have been introduced (Triage McCoy? Life-Signs McCoy?), related to performance as a field medic. Depending upon patient outcome, his sound bytes would range from "He's dead, Jim" to "I'm beginning to think I can cure a rainy day!"

5 Summer Vacation
6 None
I would love more tribble related crew, such as 1701 O'Brien, Nils Barris, Arne Darvin, and more old school Klingons like Korax. Then, a collection!
Tribbles - this could be as simple as tribbles appearing everywhere in the galaxy, which opens the door to any crew
Ceti Alpha - I know Khan is popular, but didn't we already have an augment-themed mega (the very one with controversy about event title/theme not equating to specific crew introductions)?

I'm a little surprised, but they got second place on the forum. Apparently there is a margin of error of 7% or more.
