The Starbase should be a social hub for the fleet.
Going there should not have a cooldown, leaving would still have the transwarp cooldown as normal. (Minor change)
Having an exchange at the fleet would be very welcome.
Create a way to add some cosmetic design choices to a starbase, knowing that it is all static an generic dulls the achievement.
- using the trophy system, but for a starbase instead of a ship, add a dabo table here, a dance table there, having some generic rooms to decorate would be nice (like the shops at ds9)
- quick access consoles to the vendors of other holdings
Add useful projects, not nameless tokens but something exciting for the fleet.
- minor daily fleet wide buffs for any character that does something meaningful that day.
Like a fleet activated (but personal) xp bonus pool amount.
- add a random quest dispenser (something like Borg simulations, succeed in 5 borg pve scenarios)
- buy / build random assets from the
Better fleet management interface:
- players by handle then click to see the actual toons display highest rank per stack.
So far fleets have the mega-buildings, they made it together, but the experience is now over, it's done. We need to be able to keep it fresh, usefull and even entertaining. Give us a good reason to bond with a fleet.
The more players play together, the more they engage in the game.

Redesigning the fleet storage so it needs to be used less:
- sell all items in the starbase, this also stocks the fleet stocks with provisions
- add EC so people can sell, add vendors so people can buy
The whole thing would be magical and it's all just numbers
It could be accurate values or simplified to tokens to be able to add some conversion fees (operating costs).
For instance selling basic R&D materials would add basic R&D tokens to the fleet's provisions.
Buying from a vendor uses a related token and costs some combination EC, dili or fleet creds that are then added to the fleet bank.
With the proper permissions you could set up certain conversion levels, though with the fleet bank already dispensing an allowance per day this might not be required.
This could even be exchanged for a private fleet exchange or best yet both!
Example:
Cryptic could add a deck to the starbase like the DS9 promenade, or add some new NPC's around the OPS deck.
Then use fleet projects to build specific shops for specific storage.
Try to get as much of the generic stuff into these stores, it needs a place to die this is it...
If we need generic stuff, we can then use the bones of other unwanted loot to craft it via the fleet NPC vendors (using some of the tokens / provisions).
Come to Eta Eridani, it has it all. K7 and Ganalda add full service bases, Drozana for the miscreants, and your fleet base not far from either.
I believe when you hit the transporter pad, you can return to ship and the warp out or use gate. Other options is you can return to sector space (from where you came to base).
I agree, would be nice to have a console that did that...
A trophy system might be a neat thing... but who's trophies get displayed?
A dabo table might be nice... but not really,
On the Fed bases (can't remember on the KDF), there is a project to add a DJ up by the bar...
Other shops might be a nice touch for non-fleet things...
The transporter (when you have the other holding at right level) will transport you to those holding and you can get to their vendors real quick.
useful projects?
-minor buffs, okay, tie that to random quests. fleet complete X number of fleet quests and each member completes X number of those quests - member gains X number of fleet marks and fleet gains dil/marks/other items that go into a pool that can be used for projects. Sounds feasible...
There's a fleet officer in the "ops" room that gives a daily mission for a small number of marks... it would be nice if there were more of those available
I agree... the interface needs work... especially the roster and MOTD areas...
I agree... more interaction through the fleet base and other holdings would be nice.
Doesn't Embasy Tier II unlocks the exchange for fleets?
So, on the first one....well that's honestly the job of the fleet leader and the members.
As a role-player in a fleet setting, we continually use the Starbase as a social zone and it is, to be quite honest, where you'll find the majority of our fleet if we're not out exploring and/or running STFs.
2nd: There's an Exchange on the Fleet embassy after you unlock T2.
3rd: See point one.
4th: I like the rest, think they're good points, if a little hard to implement for a systems perspective.

What do you think about a Fleet Diplomacy system? With the number of fleets on STO there could stand to be a way for fleets to form alliances or go to war with each other I know PvP is dead in this game which is really unfortunate but fighting computer programs gets old after a while.
Hate to disagree, but I would love to see fleet starbases as an NPC free zone. The bartenders can be holograms or self serve kiosks. When I joined my fleet I thought "wow! this place is buzzing! Little did I know, I was the only one on that base who was "real". The fleet starbase should be a place for JUST US! If it's empty when one arrives, that's fine.
Come to think of it, there are enough players to eliminate the wandering NPC's altogether.

I agree that the fleet needs more stuff but what would be nice if we could have EC vendor at the fleet starbase where you can sell your stuff and when you increase the lvl of your starbase the value for items go up more and more for example reach a T5 starbase and have 100% value for your stuff in your inventory. This would be great for the fleet because people can earn more EC donate more to the fleet bank and have more budget for events and do more ship give-aways or weapon.
I can agree with this.
I fully support this idea.
I like the trophy room idea and I have an idea on how they could make it work. Use the accolade points that we earn in order to make trophies that could go in the trophy room, as well as make trophies that can only be obtained in special PVE's that can only be done by a team of players from one fleet as this may encourage more fleet participation.
As for the quick access, that system is pretty good.
I can go along with this, though I wish that the fleet could also have missions that would give out Lobi.
Not sure what you are getting at here. Could you expand on this idea?
The trophy room may help out with that, though at the same time, that also falls on player communication. If there isn't much connecting with others in the fleet, there is no reason to engage with the fleet. (Just my two cents worth)
