This thread is for the Dev's. Sorry if it's in the wrong area.

I believe I am speaking for a large majority of the players in this game who will all agree that we all appreciate everything you've done so far since taking over from Cryptic. I myself have always been a huge fan of Star Trek and instantly became a lifetime member when I first saw this game and have spent a ton of money and time playing what I think is the greatest game in the world. However,there a a few things that I want to address. I don't normally write letters like this but my frustration level is at the top and I'm sure I am not the only one.

First off,I'd like to begin with the options settings. Could you please revamp them so that if we choose to turn something off in the settings,they stay off? It is so frustrating every time I log in,I have to turn off mission auto-hail and every time I change characters, I have to reset it. I know what missions I want to do or not do and don't need these aggrevating pop-ups all the time. The same goes for the voice chat setting. As far as I know those are the only 2 but they are a pain.

Secondly,what going on with the graphics? A lot of people are complaining that they have to restart the game or try to tweak the settings to keep the quality they have come to expect. Can you fix this please?

Third,while we all know your main purpose of providing STO for all of us is to make money. I'm sure all of us agree on that and we have no problem but come on-we want to play more and grind less. We have been saying crafting has needed an upgrade since forever so we can make our gear and the only change that's happened is the uncommon replicable materials at a thousand dilithium each. Not to mention a lot of the things we want to craft aren't even in the to begin with. A lot of us do not have unlimited time to be grinding for dilithium or the money to keep buying Zen to get what we want to keep playing.
Could you guy please give some serious thought on revamping this. Drop the prices and in the end,you'll make more.

Forthly, why can't we come up with a way that we can sell unwanted ships in our hangers? I realize the ships are free every 5 levels,which is good, and the Z Store is good for the most part. But I suggest a salvage system so players can turn unwanted ships into resources for their Fleets. It'd help players get some empty slots and the ability to fill them with better ones, if they choose.

I'm sure there's a lot more complaints and suggestions from just about everyone and you all are probably tired of hearing them all. But,in the long run,a little effort on your part by addressing the players needs will satisfy a lot of players,get them playing and spending more and probably bring in a lot more people by applauding what this game is and could be.


Thank You for your time-
Sabre

    How often do you log on? The only time I've seen settings reset are after a season release, and I don't remember even that happening with Season 8. All these settings are saved separately on each character, so that you can have different settings depending on that character's role, if desired. If you're seeing frequent settings resets, perhaps there is something with your computer's security settings that are preventing your changes from being saved?

    I believe you've overestimated your own importance by a phenomenal margin.

    I like that one.:)

    Pretentious is pretentious. A pretentious first post is no less pretentious than a pretentious hundredth post. If anything it's worse since it adds that "Hey, I'm the new kid here, now let me tell all the rest of you how things should be" flavor. :P
