Some requests for the future.

I've been thinking about a few things that could be done in the near future for content expansion, such as:

-More STFs, continue the series that was delayed. I'd love the Wrath of Khan inspired ones! And keep them at the difficulty they are now also, it's perfect! Just err... make em less buggy on launch please :O

-Make STFs cross faction, a LOT of KDF players want to do them but rarely find people to do them with while there's always a few Fed players around that are in for a nice run.

-Retrofit ships are a good idea, but why not make it so that you can virtually "upgrade" every ship to a higher tier? It's much less work for the dev team to just develop a script that allows this ingame isn't it? Would give the animators more time to work on other stuff in my opinion. Just a thought really.

-Make some 10 manned STFs. Sure it's not everyone's cup of tea but there's still a very bored core of more hardcore players around also. And I know that they'd love 10 manned instances such as the harder STFs.

So as you can see I'm a vivid STF fan! But please devs, add the 2nd point asap, cross faction teams isn't a hard thing to incorporate and it would solve a LOT of frustrations for a lot of people. It doesn't have to be perfect, I mean as KDF I wouldn't mind if the mission text was explained in a Federation way really.

    They're trying and more STF's i believe was said would be coming just right now not so much hehe.

    Already something they discussed as wanting to do if memory serves me.

    Actually this is probably MORE work to create an entire system that allows for upgrading slots, hull, consoles etc then just making new ships. Granted the art team has more work at that point. Overall, I would like this though :)

    If memory serves me (it is almost 3am lol), this was on the back burner somewhere.

    While something may not seem difficult, we don't know the programming code behind it so.. meh who knows there could be more to it than just a flip of a switch hehe. Cross faction teams would be nice to see someday though.

    Personally I don't like the "retro-fit" idea at all. But that's just me.

    Sigh. We don't need more STFs in their current form. They are inaccessible and largely unfun. If STFs were made to be an interesting and fullfilling experience for your average random 5man PuG then I can stand behind that. It would bring people together in a positive way. However, STFs in their current form are aggrivating and infuriating which is why they aren't a favorite of most of us. This isn't World of Warcraft and so "raiding" and that mentality is better left in that game.
