Love the new missions and the way the new boffs are added to your crew but i hope we can change the way they look and uniforms they wear.

    Harvey, Harvey, Harvey.....I thought Crichton would have shut you up years ago.

    But on a more serious note I do hope we can change the Boffs uniforms on release. As for physical features.....well I can take it or leave it. I for one will not be changing their features but I can see how some people may want to.

    In my mind changing your first few Romulan Boffs looks would be the same as Picard forcing Riker, Data, Geordi and others to go through cosmetic surgery just because he didn't like their looks.

    In STO's version of Next Gen, Riker never gets a beard and they are stuck in those awful season 1/2 uniforms forever.

    Well some people might do that, but you could also just make changes to hairstyle or facial hair. For example Riker starting out clean shaven then growing a beard. They shouldn't look the same their whole career.

    I could see an area at the starbases or academies where you can do a staff swap... switcing your new boff for a customizable one. on allied bases, do a "officer exchange program" like they did in the one TNG episode.

    As much as I'd like to be able to customize story-boff's appearance, I'm afraid Cryptic may not have the means to disable only the facial options, leaving the uniforms. Not sure if those boffs are not scripted in some places as well, so they use generic NPC models and not your own boff model.

    Still, even if this makes sense from the story point of view, I wouldn't like my boffs to wear rags at level 50.

    I dont think we should be able to change their head/height but clothes yes. its annoying if you want your crew in one uniform.

    I guess they might need to make modifications to the tailor to block access to facial features and body type but still give access to the clothes.

    I would love to be able to fix the female story sci BO's face she looks like she fell out of the ugly tree and hit every branch with her face on the way down then landing on her face at the bottom.

    At least the option to change uniforms OR get rid of them entirely please
    (I'll settle for an option to put them into standard romulan uniforms)

    Also an option to reduce bust sizes and change hair styles please (a friend sent me a screen shot of one he saw on tribble who looked like a top heavy skinhead)

    What is this nonsense, of course we should be able to change the look of our bridge officers + rename them. I don't want my officers to look identical to those of every other Romulan captain.
