Just a thing directed at everyone complaining about the weapon remodulation.
This is a Star Trek game which is supposed to be based on Star Trek. If you're complaining about this then you obviously haven't watched any of the episodes of the various shows or its films which feature the Borg. They won't get rid of this because that's what the Borg do. They adapt (in the shows at least) to all attempts to counter them, that's why a bunch of half dead robotized space zombies who fly around in weird looking geometric shapes are able to do what they do. Please don't ask them to make this game any less 'Trek' than it already is....

I have seen several borg episodes (both TNG and Voyager) and yes, they do adapt. However,
I've NEVER seen them go shooting people in the face. They always have to be withing melee range to take someone out. So if STO is going to keep the 30s re-mod time, then they should get rid of the the borg aim-bots. (I might just be blind and have completely missed the one instance in which a borg shot someone, but I doubt it)

True, but the old Borg got party- wiped by Janeway. This is a new version. Besides.... other than wanting to assimilate people, the Borg had no reason not to do it before.
1. BOFF autonomous AI is deficient and will hopefully improve if the AI has been improved for Neverwinter's BOFF counterparts.
2. Weapons 'feel' like they lack punch, and when they do have punch its usually just a oneshot.
3. Device slots/batman utility belt. Having to equip food before I can use it makes no sense in a rapid fire gameplay environment. I'm already carrying it.
4. Food, hypos et al. are non-applicable to regular gameplay. They should be the essence of survival. Plus I should be able to administer a hypo on a teammate.
5. Kits (thats a topic onto itself).
6. Finally, while I don't 'hate' ground combat, I dislike that I am forced into engaging in ground combat more often than not. Its not a choice I am free to make and this cheapens the feeling for me.

Well there is the episode where a pack of them are controlled by lore.
This thread came up with my google search: star trek online ground combat removed
I was really hoping they had removed this horrible side to the game, or had a means to opt out / autocomplete missions with ground content. It's the only reason keeping myself and other friends from playing this game. We've tried twice and just can't get past how horrible it is.
So seriously why keep something around that clearly a bunch of people don't enjoy? Focus on one thing and make it good. Keep it simple.
And yes this is my first and only post to the forums because it is really that bad!

A lot of people like it...including myself.
The mix of space and ground is what makes this game as good as it is...in my opinion.
If you really hate it as much as you say...you always have the foundry...PvE space queues...space only patrols.
You can easily keep this game space only if you wanted to.

So, let me see if I understand you correctly. You tried it a grand total of 2 times, didn't like it, so it should just be gotten rid of?
Because if you read this thread, there are 'clearly a bunch of people' that DO enjoy it.
