New STF Difficulty, thank you Cryptic!

And no this isn't a whiny post like the others, this post is the opposite:

THANK YOU Cryptic for FINALLY giving us some REAL challenging content! You have no idea how much fun me and my fleeties had last night in the Advanced modes of Infected Space and Cure Space. We're all looking forward to trying out the Elite and other STFs but I've not had this much fun as in the old STFs when they actually did pose a challenge.

So please do NOT change the difficulty at all, it's perfectly fine as it is and might have to be tweaked a bit later on when more people get gear and stuff but that's for the future. If there is one comment I could give for improvement it's that the rewards do need to be upped a bit. A tiny bit of dilithium and often useless rewards along with those ancient Omega marks is a bit obsolete. It would be nice to get a Mark choice pack and a bit more dilithium or some other random drop like crafting bonus materials and things like that.

Again, I never thought I'd post something like this but THANK YOU CRYPTIC for finally launching a worthwhile piece of content, I strongly hope that this is the start of the new future of Star Trek Online! :D

    First, speaking as someone that doesn't like the new Advanced Ques, I'm glad you find them enjoyable.

    A simple solution to the difference in opinion is put 'Advanced' back to what it was for those of us that enjoyed it and have Elite mode for people like you that like that like Cubes with 7M Hit Points.

    No one objects to a 'hard mode,' what we object to is that that 'Medium' setting is just another name for 'hard mode with less rewards.' There is no variety right now, you have only Easy, Elite and Elite with better rewards. The 'in between' players who seem to comprise the majority, have been neglected.

    No one objects to you getting what you wanted, we just don't see why it had to be done at the expense of those that didn't want it. Especially when there is room for both.
    Insert witty signature line here.

    They redesigned elite so you could have fun with that style of gameplay.

    Please do not continue to insist that advanced remains unfun for me.

    They broke the scaler for advanced. It was supposed to scale but apparently it didn't scale properly.
