    In the beginning, a lot. But its because the design of the new ESD is terrible, no matter what people say. Far worst than the other one. In fact i have the impression to be standind in a BAR. The design of the rooms is just, well, i cant even find a name lol. "good" job cryptic, to waste time and efforts in that. You could used that time trying to fix the essential bugs that must be fixed. And btw, its incredible how people likes everything , even if the esd does not even have the shape of the space station.

    Never, because thankfully the new ESD design is awesome, thank you art design devs for developing it rather than retraining as bug devs, 'cos that would have taken a long time.

    Arguably the "biggest" improvements to ESD were...

    Putting mail terminals everywhere and adding a couple bank terminals in "key" areas, such as the requisitions room and the shipyard...

    Boy, adding a couple more glowies to the old ESD would have been so difficult and time consuming...

    While I understand that the Art department does not fix bugs with the code, I read / keep hearing about bugs with the artwork (clipping uniforms, bad color pallets, etc.) that would be right up their alley...

    Perhaps, before the next major revamp of an area, some time be spent addressing the existing issues, and if a QoL maneuver is necessary (such as bank terminals by the shopping mall in First City) an minor edit to the existing map would "pass" until such time as the necessary bug fixes are complete and then the staff has the time to revamp an entire area...

    They can completely redo Qo'nos as far as I am concerned. I never cared much for the design, and most of it is unused. The challenge floor should be a place that players can duel for the honor of their respective house/fleet/etc, and the Bar.....I haven't stepped foot in there in like.....3 years. It'd be awesome if the mission contact would meet you in there to drink bloodwine with you to the success of your mission. I find it a little funny too that anyone goes in the High Council chamber, since I would assume that most didn't go in there, as it was restricted to High Council members, aids, and people deemed necessary to be allowed in there for whatever reason.

    The Uniform bugs are a different matter entirely. Half the uniforms don't work well on captains utilizing more than the standard builds in the body/head size customization tabs. Also, I have the biggest pet peeve that my joined trill characters don't have spots between their faces, and their shoulders. A lot of eye attach options get messed up by brow protrusion(even eyebrows sometimes) and I've seen a weird bug lately with dreads sticking out funny on 1 side of the head.
    Not to mention liberated borg captains/boffs not having infected coloring on the rest of their bodies. wow, this turned into an off topic reply....sorry :P

    Its not, you like it but the design is stupid. No sense in the room connections, glass walls everywhere but the most annoying thing is, where the hell is the rest of the station???? where is the shape of the station? why not to put just a square giant room and thats it??

    The previous ESD was awesome, far better than this one. At leat it looked like a space station. Some of you have a real bad taste, i must say.

    New ESD is actually much better as now you can feel how large it actually is. It is much bigger than ds9 type of station as you would have to walk for "days" until you make a circle.

    On old ESD you didn't had access to whole station, it was just tiny part.

    Don't call stupid something you don't understand.

    Well i guess it is a question of tastes.

    Feel how large it is?? are you kidding?? its far smaller than before, i used about 5 minutes to walk from point to point. You have a space station that has the shape of a circle, and then the interior has the shape of a.. erm, chicken?

    What do you mean to have access to the whole station?? lol. There are hidden floors? or something like that? lol. Besides the shuttlebay that is not accesible, there are not extra floors as far as i know. In the end a stupid station that looks like even smaller than k7. Terrible.

    I think you are the one who dont understand lol.

    I've been telling people in game it feels like I'm in SWTOR. If they took our the transporter and replaced it with a door to the planet outside...it would basically identical. Only difference is TOM'S stations make some sense. I literally had to check the map for the skill trainer. And requisitions. And why do the commodity brokers have two separate desks? There isn't an empty ground floor, but there's still a lot of unused space. And A LOT of space in between things. Making it appear bigger doesn't make it better.

    The only part of DS9 we have access to is the promanade. Ops is there, too, but that's assumed. There's no habitat ring, no pylons, no docking ring. Also, the tailor is not Cardassian and the tailor's stall is on the outside of the promenade when it should be on the inside not far from the OPS turbolift and upper level staircase. Maybe you should watch DS9 before you comment on the station.

    The station isn't circle-shaped, it's doughnut-shaped. That's why you can see ships inside the station when you look out the window by the shipyard.

    We have access to one small wedge of that doughnut. The overall effect does make it feel larger to me, while at the same time making everything closer and easier to get to.

    I always hated the old station and loathed every single time I had to dock there. I'm a huge fan of the new ESD.

    I have only been playing the game a few months, so I was not as "attached" to the old ESD as some of you I guess, either way the new one is not bad. The old one was cool, this one is too. Change is good sometimes, doesn't hurt to try new things. I admit I have ran into the glass outside of the tailor, in fairness I was full sprint and looking around as I ran, was funny though.

    When you go to Sol system and look at ESD, you can see that from position of deck 47 you can't have a round feel when walking there, it is huge compared to your ship or single person.

    I mentioned ds9 (which is ring shaped compared to esd) as even if you are walking inside of outer ring, you would feel like you are walking in circle. Needed to explain why new ESD deck 47 doesn't feel like round circle.

    Now that I read your post with that avatar, I feel like Cardassians plan to do something about that station, do you plan to take over ds9? :)
