Type 4 material has been added to the Naj'Sov.

This is a welcome change. Since it's clear that such an addition can be made, would the devs consider adding the same awesome type 4 material to the T6 KDF "Bortasqu" flagships and their variants? I know that there's a good amount of players that would appreciate such an addition to the game.

Also, since I'm already making a request, I'll make another. Would the devs consider adding a new KDF and Romulan costume to the dilithium store? One to "match" the Federation 1 million plus uniforms? I'm unsure of which could be added for the KDF but I know that I would love the Nemesis/Donatra uniform to be added to the dil store for the Romulans. Even if it did cost 2 million dilithium.

Umm, no. We want the Fed uniforms out of the Dil store and back to the C-Store where they belong.​​

How can they go back to a place that they've never been?

Because they are canon faction uniforms so that were obiously intended for the C-Store before a terrible horrible but accidentally diverted them to the Dil-Store.

I agree, the whole costumes for a shitload of dilithium was a stupid move. The Phoenix box drained dilithium well, costumes should be back into the c-store for factions costumes or the Lobi store for the rest (The MACO one would go there).​​

I would prefer to go back to the request of giving Material 4 to the T6 Bortasque over the topic of Federation uniforms in the Dilithium Store.

Or how about also enabling the Klingon Fleet Material(s) so they actually appear and work?

No... you loudly pronounce you weren't the target customer and don't understand the economics that keep this game afloat.

Not everything they do is meant for you.

Oh please. On the Reddit thread announcing the Phoenix Box a relevant Dev states they were introduced as a dil sink before staying that the aim of the dil costumes was to attempt to drain several million dil from a small number of players and that it had failed.

It was a move for a very specific and very small section of the playerbase and had nothing to do with the over all game economy.

It was a flat out mistake to put canon faction uniforms in the dil-Store by anybodies standards including a dev.

Pretending this move was a dil sink and therfore part of keeping the game afloat is disingenuous and shows a clear lack of understanding as to how the games economics work.

I've also noticed that a few of my T6 Klingon ships have the "upgrade" skin unlocked but not all ships appear to have this option. I'm going to go through all my ships on all factions and see which ones have the upgrade skin.

Lets have the actual quote instead of your attempt to spin it to your argument.

The costume additions were never intended to be a true sink, and that's not something that we ever called them. Players attributed that moniker to them.

As I told a few folks at STLV (including /u/Lootcritter) those expensive items were intended to be two things:

1) A test-bed, to see if the small audience of Ultra-Dilithium-Rich players WANTED expensive, exclusive, non-combat items to spend their surplus earnings on.

2) An instant and one-time reduction to the glut of Dilithium gathering dust on the accounts of a small percentage of those few ultra-rich players.

Not seeing the "failed" part.

That's because it no longer exists. There's at least three missing that were there up to an hour after I made my posts there.

Incidentally, it's not 'spin' when you've literally posted proof of part of my point.​​
