For season 8 I have some ideas, here they are.
1: Caitian homeworld(regulus) ground map
2: interactive consoles inside ship (visit ship bridge)
3:Species specific uniforms.
4: more emotes (like console_wall or console_basic)
5:customizable ground weapon look.
6:Customize appearance of kit/armor.
Those are my ideas for season 8 please provide feedback on your opinions of them.
What would the console do? just blink and beep????
We've all got our switches, lights, and TRIBBLE to deal with, Striker. I mean, down here there are literally hundreds and thousands of blinking, beeping, and flashing lights, blinking and beeping and flashing - they're *flashing* and they're *beeping*. I can't stand it anymore! They're *blinking* and *beeping* and *flashing*! Why doesn't somebody pull the plug!

#1: the Caitian HW seems to be in Alpha Centauri. (Doff missions that send refugees there are found in AC) It would be nice to have it as an actual map location though.
2: I'd rather just have mail access in my ready room again. Why did they take that away?
3: how would that work?

3: how would that work?
1) That would require Cryptic and CBS to settle on where the Caitian Homeworld actually is, and what it's called. As far as I'm aware, there isn't a settled answer for that little hitch.
1. Trill Homeworld
2. Betazed
3. the rest of the sol solar system.
4. the ability to customize ship weapon, device, bridge officer and console lay outs. Make each of these options something you need to complete a mission to do, not just a rep grind.

1) Introduce Canines instead of Caitians:D (Dogs can fight cats and even eat them-see Canine race ANTICS.)
2) KDF-Needs complete overhaul-They mentioned for real next season the overhaul would be a Gorn rep system or similar
3) PvPs- The forgotten stepchild nobody wants to fix. We need more players maps.

Looks like #2 will get done (at least some) in season 8. Here's from DStahl:
Q: (chalpen) Can you give us a definite, ?Yes Season 8 will have KDF only playable content? or ?no, none at this time? answer?
Dstahl: The KDF are getting some love in Season 8 but I can?t discuss the scope of it yet. As we get closer to the release, more news and specifics will be released along with some previews of what we have been working on. I personally believe that Season 8 will be a positive release for the KDF.
ANTICS are what go on around here on many an occasion.

How about a total revamp for Omega and Romulan Marks?!
Instead of being cheap on rewarding marks or keeping the marks just to the Borg stfs/red alert actions and New Romulus daily missions how about adding the marks to all the Borg Collective and Romulan Mystery missions. As for being cheap with the marks, it is bogus that a player can turn in 10 resonating rocks or glowing plant samples just for 1 Romulan Mark.
If you search all over the map for rocks and glowing plants, when you get 10 and turn them in you should at least get 5 Romulan Marks, not 1. Most of my buddies I play with consider the reputation system a waist in time because you run around like an idiot for literally no rewards.
Another idea I have is how about having the particle hunts not only on Earth and Qo'nos, but how about having them also on Bajor, or Defera, Risa, Vulcan, Andoria, and New Romulus. With the hunts bring back the many instances and limit the amount of people in an instance to maybe 15-20 instead of nearly 50 like some have had.
More 25th Century looking ships with areas of the ship looking the time period like the Aquarius bridge for the Odyssey class. As much as I agree with them, I would like to see the proper bridges for the proper ships. Example for the Constitution Refit Class, Oberth, Miranda, and Excelsior should have the bridges they had from Star Trek: The Motion Picture to Star Trek Generations.
"Richard, I'll give you one word of advice, you shouldn't anger a demigod" - Lord Archanfel, Supreme Zoalord and leader of the Chronos Organization in the series Guyver: The Bioboosted Armor series.
I am going to appeal to the slowly rising number of Native American players; myself being one of them; I would like to see the following for outfits and weapons:
Traditional Native American clothes for an off duty outfit
A duo weapon pick up with the 25th cent equivalent of a tomahawk and warclub - imagine beating a Klingon up with both a tomahawk and warclub. One doing edge damage and the other doing blunt damage
Usable knife to use on enemies
Ship Bridges and lay out Ideas:
I think for those of us who love the movies from the Motion Picture to the beginning of Generations there should be a TMP pack in which you get the following bridges
- The Wrath of Khan bridges of the Reliant and Enterprise
- Search for Spock Grissom bridge
- Undiscovered Country bridges of Sulu's Excelsior and Enterprise-A (was highly upset that the Constitution Refit bridge DID NOT match that of the Enterprise Refit/Enterprise-A
- Lastly Generations bridge of the Enterprise-B
A buddy of mine also says there should be a classic-bridge pack that features the bridges of all the Enterprises from NX-01 to NCC-1701-E and the futuristic version of the Galaxy-X bridge from All Good Things.
Enough with the traditional TNG looking bridges for the 25th Century, sure they are nice, but there should be more bridges besides the Aquarius Bridge and Intrepid Bridges that look like they belong in the 25th century. Also having all the stations on the bridges filled would be nice in my own opinion.
Also the ship layouts like Engineering, Crew Deck, Ready Room, among other rooms on the ships should look more like the time frame. That and having more areas of the ship accessible, like the Armory, Shuttle bay, the Brig, Confrence Room (instead of having it accessible during the Deferi mission)
Bridge Officer Ideas:
Being able to dress your officers up in off duty outfits or formal clothes. I would also like to do more with my bridge officers instead of setting rally points, targets, and attacks. Maybe set them on a exploration mission or seek and kill mission while the away team is planet side.
Other Ideas:
How about newer temporal lockbox or Lobi Crystal rewards. Rewards such as
USS Kelvin, Vulcan Jellyfish and JJ Abrams Constitution Class (with matching bridges, weapons, and layouts) for the Federation
Narada for the other playable races or have it as a Tal'Shiar ship
All the Uniforms from the recent Star Trek film.
That is all I can think of at the moment

I'm curious to see if there will be any significant UI improvements. Specifically...
1) The ability to customize the HUD in-game proper, not from the existing customization screen with all the green boxes, which I find to be kind of a hassle to work with. See EVE Online for a relevant example. Y'know, of the customization functionality, not the actual HUD itself, because ugh.
2) Being able to replicate commodities from within the DOFF window would be pretty sweet. As it is now, every time I'm on an assignment page from a department head, going to the replicator closes that assignment window, which is really annoying.
3) A recolour function. Even within certain guidelines, like only shades of blue for Fed and shades of red for KDF, would be nice to have. We could then shift the KDF's red hue to be a little easier on the eyes. A transparency slider would also be nice to have.
4) Regarding HUD styles, I'd love to have optional new HUD designs based on the ship you're in. Flying a Cardassian Galor? Here, have a Cardassian HUD skin. Even just within a faction, a TOS interface for its era of ships (and a blue and green, rounded button style for the TOS movie era,) coloured LCARS for the TNG era ships, and so forth. You could even sell them in C-Store packs if you really wanted to.
I like to have the UI windows only move when I drag the borders. A Lock UI button would also be nice to have. I accidentally move/resize somethign every time I log in....
I'd also like to see more customizable weapons and ground gear, and hats, like the archer baseball cap.
I wouldn't be surprised if hats would require some kind of new "hat tech" kind of like the new "hair tech" which never seemed to materialize. Maybe for the best, though. Bigger fish to fry and all that.
But I could see that hat and Archer's shades appearing alongside the possible Risa event/adventure zone, or any other new location that is desert-themed.
I'd love to have the Morpheus-style sunglasses those aliens wore in Nemesis.

Dual close combat weapons such as a sword and dagger.

This is going to be like buying the 1988 Gijoe weapons packs.
