What I find wierd is that the Federation is all nice and kind. But on the exchange they're ransoming innocent refugee's, prisoners, even there own crewmembers:confused: don't they have laws against that or something?

    You know what material your fleet starbase's walls are made of, right?

    Ground up doffs.

    I never thought about that lol. Nevertheless it isn't the only 'un-fed' type thing you do ingame. Like those bits where you could warp out or fight and kill several hundred people and risk the lives of your crew (the guys you sell on the exchange) where the average fed response would be 'Maximum warp' this time it's 'Load torpedos phasers at maximum'.

    What I find annoying about DOFFs on the exchange...

    They go and change the colour outline of doffs in the game so when you are looking at your assignment screen, the quality is now only the bottom left corner of the doff. Note that common doffs do not have a white border down there, it's just whatever the default colour for your faction is. And then the middle to the top right right you have the faction colour of the DOFF.

    Never mind that this makes it very difficult to see at a glance what quality doffs you are dealing with... for example, on a Romulan, looking at a common officer who has a green border all around, and an uncommon officer has a green border all around with slight lightening on the bottom left, they are all but impossible to differentiate unless they are next to each other. Same with common/rare fed DOFFs, although there seems to be more contrast with the blues.

    So... irritating as this change was, I figured, ok I guess they are doing that so we can more easily see what faction doffs belong to on the exchange, so people dont buy the wrong ones that they cant use... except... the doffs on the exchange all have plain outlines on the top right, so you still have to right click them to see what faction they are!

    The only time you *really* need to see a doff's faction easily is on the exchange, yet that's the one place you cant. You dont ever need to see it on the doff assignment screen, because if you cant use one it just wont show up.

    Anyway... /rant off.
