Found this link in other post but it has some interesting anouncement's regarding PVP.
I thought everybody should have a chance to read the interview.
So here it is the link :

"There already is a Borg faction, its called the Federation. They assimilate everyone else's technology and remove any biological or technical distinctiveness and add it to their own."

This is interesting
This is statement is laden with possibilities.....
At my last count 736.7453
Didn't you say that last year? :P
Still, it's so easy to be negative - so easy to give into the past... but c'mon, can tell they're trying more than... give 'em a shot.
I am trying to take this attitude. It's like they say about second (third, fourth....) marriages:
The triumph of hope over experience.
possibilities to fail. Like the last reputation system wasn't painful enough.

Now shaddup about the queues, it's a BUG
Read my later post.....totally agree that this may fizzle into nothing or another grind. Just trying to be positive for once....hard for me sometimes after all the past transgressions, I know.
Maybe it will be better than what we now have, eventually.
If we do get any new passives or active abilities through a rep system, though, I really hope they're active in PvP maps only. That way the PvE crowd can't complain fowl that we're getting special treatment "again" and that they have to suffer at the hands of us no-life people just for 1% more damage or defense. Just like the Romulan/Omega passives should have been PvE only.
And I really hope gear tied into such a rep system is on par with the other reputations so that it's not "must have" for any type of content, like if it had pvp only stats.
Fanfiction! ZOMG! Read it now!

effect innate power bonuses, perhaps boost certain power levels by quite a bit. sorta redundant, its pretty easy to have a ton of total power with 2 different EPtX abilities, warp core doffs, leach and maco, and cycling 2 AtB with tech doffs.
could boost skills that deflectors don't, like any of the tactical or engineering skills.
station powers? what if varying qualities could turn up to LTC stations universal? green ENS, blue LT, purple LTC?
maybe they could have warp cores effect console setups? -1 eng,+1 tac?
if its stuff like this, i welcome our new warp core overloads!
/yawn
Too bad STO treats PVP as a mini e-sport. Instanced 5v5 is so damned epic... to those with small expectations, I guess.
It's like the only PVP experience the Devs ever had was in World of ********'s Battlegrounds or something as equally lame.
Ker'rat is still too small in scope but it was a move away from that.
I would kill for consensual, large scale, open galaxy, territorial control-based PVP.
Seriously.
