    That's all I wanted, personally. Thank you.

    Man, Nukara Prime might actually rule now. I may just have to go after that Tholian ground set. I always liked the missions but found the rewards too skimpy in the past.

    Also, anyone want to guess what the gap will be between "people that can find time to post complaints on the forum about how Cryptic doesn't listen to its players" and "people that can find the time to post a thank you when Cryptic listens to its players"? I'm setting the over/under at 500.5. Place your bets.

    Good update. just wish this had been added last week and saved a lot of anger but we got there in the end.

    with the hourly windows and the fleet boosts we should see some an impressive out turn from these.

    and pvp updates woot.

    Also interested in this.

    Now if we could just get a way to convert fleet credits to reputation marks. That would really complete this overhaul. All in all it is a great change.

    [*]Azure Nebula rescue now grants twice as many Fleet Marks.

    That's something that STILL baffles me, Azure neb is basically a rommie 'stf' right? But then why are the rom marks reward so low (in comparison to omega stf ((not even the elites)) ) and why do we get the, new boosted, fleet marks? :confused:

    This sounds like good news fleet marks all around :D thanks for listening to us on the need for more rewards on that :D

    A similar increase in Romlan marks would be nice, but this is good thanks. It would have been better if this and the last change had been done all at once though. Still, this is good.

    And what does this line mean?

    Activating EV suits no longer cause the character's head to disappear.

    Was there a bug, or does this mean that EV suits now show heads?

    thats much better, those fleet missions just gave a trickle of marks, now they are really worth doing. oh wait, never mind, i can just get them from pvp! finally! :D

    with all these other sources of fleet marks buffed, i doubt it will lead to much afk trouble too. to help the KDF fleets more, who need it, how about adding like 20 fleet marks to all those missions like its a good day to die, turret killer, ect... that give the 480 dil?

    Very welcome news about the Fleet Marks - thanks!

    EDIT - Actually, looking at it, the Defera Invasion rewards seem quite high. 60 marks for a hard? Wow! I can complete some of them in under a minute.

    The fact that the Hard missions have a 20 hour cooldown should balance it out though.

    I dont want to get greedy but while we are on the subject it might be nice if every fleet action and STF gave a very small amount each time you play. maybe 5-10.

    they give out good rewards anyway so i know you dont want them to become the 'one content to rule them all, but as they are teamed missions i think they should give a little something out that people can accumulate over time.

    Does this mean we're getting the removed helmet when deactivated that was mentioned many patch notes ago?

    thank you, cryptic, for listening to your playerbase...there, at least they'll have some positive feedback amongst all the complaining that's sure to come for not doing it last week, which everyone knows is going to happen

    Thanks for this move to address the FM issue ...

    If I am pushing my luck .. was expecting to see a increase on the ol Officer of the watch missions .. 5FM is useless and we have to go to Fleet base to do it .. I gave up ages ago
