They should make Outfits and Ship Interiors really expensive premium content, which are not bundled as a giveaway with some other content that has nothing to do with it, so you have to make a deliberate decision to purchase those Costumes or Ship Interiors by spending the money they charge for it.
Only then there would be a real statistical picture how many of the community would spend that money for Cryptic to make that stuff.
Then if they see there aren't so many players, so they decide to not make that stuff, they should have the balls and tell us that it is not going to happen, instead of cheating in halfbaked stuff.
With that precise information I would at least have the official response that this game is nothing for me anymore and I could move on.
But as they currently tease us with goodies, increases our hype for something that is probably never going to happen.
And the Community Manager Ambassador Kael has their fair share in our "fake" hype, by telling us that he will be pushing developers to make it happen, but looking at the patch notes week over week, nothing changes.
Making existing Costumes work for specific species/factions is not even coding stuff, it is just entering some values (I think some filenames for the Meshes and Textures and then some Body Sliders) in an editor, as the Systems Designer already explained.
I would volunteer to help them out doing it, if they don't have the time. I spend 80% of my playtime in the Tailor UI anyway. You hear me Cryptic?
Check out my Bio and ongoing Story as Comic Flipbook on FlipHTML5:
Problem with the stop paying/playing philosophy is the fact they'll just yank the plug and take their ball home.
If it becomes more trouble than it's worth, they won't bother at all. They live in a different universe to us, they don't see much further than the next quarterly report. Plus CBS have expectations surrounding profits too.
