STO - If you really want to know WHAT WE your customers want

Instead of just polls why not provide a place for our suggestions

1. What we really want is more realism star trek style. You should always think how would this effect look in the movie. Examples

A. The 2 dimentional shield donuts around the ships in battle really look aweful
B. You changed cloaking, we don't need that. Just a blur in the stars like in the movies is all we need
C. Big flashing doors on the bridge. We don't need that

This and other things take away from the experience. (the new transporter effect gives everyone a moentary afro)

You guys are not thinking . You need to think "how do we immerse players into the STO world not "how do we dumb down the game to get more people " IT's not working MORE Realism or at least the option to turn helper grafx off

What else bugs us?

    I like the shield facings, reminds me of Starfleet Command. The only thing that's proven with this customer group, is that they want Romulans. :p

    If you mean the shield ring... You can turn that off in options.

    Only for you. What everyone else see hasn't changed.

    There's a setting to remove the 2D donuts from the ships.

    I took them off and it ramps up the immersion since you dont see them except for specific situations. They added a little arrow on the enemy shield in your 'target' window that shows you what shield you're currently attacking.

    the shield rings can be turned off and whilst the cloaking affect looks odd it actually is easier to see what your doing, so i have no problem with that. sometimes functionality has to go above cosmetics

    the doors are a little odd and really dont need to be there. they could just put a button to say leave the bridge and be done with it
