1) Player housing?
2) Crafting to make sellable items?
3) XP Debt?
4) An Auction House?
5) Professions/Archetypes?

I'm also curious to know if there will be some kind of character tweak system as most games have. In Warcraft you add skill points and spec your toon (armour and weapons aside), in LOTR you slot Traits with a Bard. What will be STO's "thing"...

I am still curious about how it will work, from what I have seen there are space battles with the ships but also individual characters. Will there be different scenarios for each?

I dont know if it will have an autction house...since theyve stated that their wont be money, but rather prestige/reputation, kinda hard to hand that over in exchange for a good ;)

Hopefully it will have an auction house, and semi-customizable ships.

I read an article a while back, think it was in an old issue of Game Informer, that said that the ships would be customizable in appearance and that there would be professions/archetypes for you to choose from. Although, I think with the latter, it basically boiled down to some skill bonuses. They had examples for it though, like how you would be a starship captain no matter what, but that you would also be this other thing. Like how Picard was a captain and an archeologist. I think they even mentioned some of the classes to choose from, and I believe that they were Doctor, Scientist, Engineer, Archeologist, Soldier, and I want to say Pilot was there as well, and I believe there were more besides that. Not entirely sure, I'd have to dig up the magazine and look.

Anything is possible in games, hence behold the Prestige Credit System! Where selling your honors points yields you better gear and ships!

Kinda like Indecent Proposal, minus the wife.

A lot like the Silent Hunter games, where you use Renown to get new sonars and torpedoes and whatnots for your sub.

I hope that the micro-transactions don't affect gear and ships, that'd completely ruin the game for a lot of people.

I hope so, i want too be able to fully tour my ships to be honest.

i wonder how death is going too be handled in this one...

I would love to be able to explore my ships as well, but I really doubt that is going to happen, unless they are putting much more work into this game than I know about...

And I'm sure death will be interesting as well, I'm sure your ship will never be completely destroyed just badly damaged. And maybe you won't die, you just get K.O.ed? Seems a little weird though.

Wow, I didn't even realize how old this thread was...that's sad.

Player housing has always been a good idea, as long as it doesn't get in the way. Maybe attach a profession to it like RS did.

yea me to mate me to.
