Hi, I've just joined this Forums and unfortunately don't have the time to go over all the Threads already posted here. So hopefully my following questions haven't been answered a million times before :)
First thing, will there be some kind of ground vehicles in STO?
I mean not only some possibility to outfit ones vessel with shuttles (and maybe fighters) but also with 'bound-to-the-grounds'. I'm not asking for some Argo-Jeep here (I really hate this thing), but more some state-of-the-art antigrav (or even mech) to move around on planets more quickly
Will there be some kind of Mirror Universe Server?
I'd really like to become a part of a mighty Imperial Starfleet somewhere..
Since there won't be real crews (sad but understandable) will the fleets be able to design sepcial 'fleet-patches' and things like that?
I already have some plans in mind...

1. I already asked for the Agro Jeep on like the first or second day....nothing confirmed
2. Developer has said Single server is the goal, certainly that would imply a single universe with multiple servers as needed as technically necessary.
3. Yes !!! We can decorate our ships with "Decals" . Not much detail released regarding customization but there willl be alot. Your crew will be completely customizable races as well.

KO_Gilligan pretty much covered it all.
jack did mention tho that some missions will require us to go to the "Mirror Universe" so rest assured while it probibly won't be its own server that its content will be included in some fashion.

I believe he was talking about mirror universes found in Star Trek lore. I doubt it will be in the release, but it's always a possibility for a future expansion pack.

if not its own server at least itll be a cut off portion of the server seperate from people in the "real" universe so we get to see/experience different things.

Yes "Mirror, Mirror". Jack said we can go there,
and that means your Vulcan crewmembers will grow facial hair :eek:

Hmm.... would you be.... you.... or the alternate you ?
I prefer the good old alien hugging socialist form of existance that Star Trek is famous for.

thanks for the Infos (hat to search my thread 'cause there's a lot of activity around in here)
Concering the MU: I was more about if there would be a server where one could play the MU, but doing missions there is also very cool. Also the thing with the ship, can't wait to get my hands on STO!!!

In that case, I hope they have dipilatory cream in the replicator database! :D
