Custom Uniform Slots

I know this will probably seem like a big QQ thread, but hear me out.

Before the patch we had 2 uniform slots that we could switch between on the fly, with no limitation on what the uniforms were (DS9, TNG, TOS, etc...)

Now we have 3 slots, 2 for on-duty uniforms, and 1 for off-duty uniforms. Only problem I have with this is that I can't switch between my two favourite uniforms anymore since one of those slots is reserved specifically for a Fleet Uniform. Don't get me wrong, I like my fleet, but the choice of Fleet Uniform is, quite frankly, terrible. I used to switch between my Wrath of Khan uniform and my TOS uniform all the time, and that was just awesome. :cool:

But what's the point of giving us all of these extras if we can't use more than one without having to pay more credits to remake the entire thing every time?

If I had to choose between having an off-duty uniform and an alternate on-duty uniform, I'd give up the off duty uniform in an instant.

What about people who aren't in a fleet? Do they only get 1 on-duty uniform slot now? Or is the only way you can have an alt. uniform now by leave your fleet?

I think we should be able to choose which uniform types go in which slots. So if you wanted 2 extra on-duty uniforms, or 2 off-duty uniforms you could. Or the current selection if you wanted. So all in all everybody wins!

I'm sure some strict fleets might impose a rule on their members of wearing their fleet uniforms or something, but for others, it just seems pretty restricting. (Especially since Fleet Uniforms can only use parts of the standard uniform templates, so no TOS/DS9 styles, etc...)

This could be fixed really easily, and even if it is a really minor thing that a lot of people probably don't care about, it was nice to have the option to switch between your favourite uniforms whenever you wanted, and it's the little touches like that which make me smile :D

(Also, I apologise if there's already a thread about this, I looked but couldn't find one)

    I thought if given the appropreiate Fleet Rank people had the ability to make their own Fleet Uniforms they could change to their liking? The Fleet Master could setup a Template but they could still change colors and what not on it, did they change this??

    You can change certain things, but all extra uniforms are restricted (at least that's what I presume the lock next to their name means). So I can't wear the TOS skirt, or edit it to look like a TOS uniform, or anything like that.

    So far as I know, The lock next to their names means they had to be obtained a special way. (Unlocked.) This was a change that came with Season One.

    Well.... If that's true then I have made a complete idiot out of myself. I'll go check this out now
