What new thing will the Noxter get in Beta 3.

and what will the avatar/commander thingys be, and what will it give them.

well i'm sorry to say, but the noxter are likly to be not playable in beta3. they just don't fit to the new balancing guidlines which have been set. if they make it back in a later beta they will have some face lifting

not really sure weather to say yes or no here i don't like being the noxter and i find them anoying to play against but if you want a challenge there they are!

I 100% appreciate the decision with the Noxter. At the moment, I only used them as "cruel enemies" to my favourite species. I never play them (apart from testing them once), and so do others.

Seems we all love canon species.

So true. I don't think I will like the Ciaden either. Is that a made up race by the way...? because I never heard of one.

Also, I also use it for "very cruel enemies"

I tried it once, It was sooo confusing I had no idea what to do...

If they are complet;ey left in as npc or a race but not selectable in the menu but able to be used on maps but left in cruel enemy but not a race to play.

yep, the Ciadan are a made up race.. by the way my favourit one they are essential to the Fleet Operations story line and the noxter are not.. this was another point to remove them.
If the Noxter won't come back as a playable race they will - of course - be a non player race. i won't through all the models away i did so hard!

I would keep the Noxtor in as they are now.They are pretty unique.I've played them and I wasnt confused.Reminded me of my Starcraft days.

I wouldnt mind seeing 8472 put in with "new voices".The voices is what killed them in A2 original.

yep perhaps the noxter will come back in beta4, but they need massive balancing and model corrections to fit the beta3 standard, therefore they won't be in beta3

I disagree.

You don't want to say, you don't love Romulans, Klingons, Federation and Dominion, do you?

To love canon species does not mean not to like all uncanon species. But when I can choose between a weired species and Dominion, I choose Dominion.

The Ciadans however, they sound great to me and I'm looking forward to see them ingame.

And if the Noxter will be improved, fine. As long as the restriction of race numbers won't kick out a canon species for that. What about Cardassians? Forgot what you said about it, Optec. Part of Dominion? NPC race?
