We have alot of choices of uniforms on out beloved game, but what would be cool is to have actual MACO uniforms, like on Enterprise series. Have that particular uniform, and maybe 2409 versions of that uniform. We could put our tactical officers that we put as security in those uniforms. Also it would be awesome if we could have doffs that are MACOs.

The fact that it's outdated by the new MACO armor is irrelevant, seeing as there are people running around in Enterprise, TOS, and Wrath of Khan uniforms all the time. You gotta respect the classics.
I'd also really like to see the rifle and pistol that the MACO commandos on the NX used.
Camo would be useless in space exploration,
option 1: have 2000+ diferent sets of armor for every posible planet you might encounter or
option 2: adaptive camo, wich would make customisation completely useless.
It would be a good sight more sensible - or at least practical - than the miniskirts and heeled boots which are so popular among female PCs.
The MACO outfit is no more inherently outdated than any other historical uniform currently in-game.
Except that there is a camo pattern for the 24th Century Romulan uniforms in this game. Since they added that, they might as well add some patterns for KDF and Starfleet.
And, if I might add, it isn't relevant that camo would be useless in space. They wore it to distinguish them from Starfleet. You know, because the MACOs weren't actually part of Starfleet.
That being said...I think it would be great. I'd actually prefer the mirror uniforms with the skull patches, myself.
Of course the camo MACO uniforms are canon, why would they not be? The guys who wore them were a part of the NX-01 crew in Enterprise, and I think they were the best part of that crew. That was the first organization in the Federation that was really an actual military force. So, I think their uniforms, patches, combat armor, and even their weapons could make a great appearance in STO.
I agree, they appeared in a show that was not by JJ, so it should be available. I would also like to see the ENT Phase pistols and other gear.
I think some of this is coming slowly. When I started everyone used new fed tricorders. Now they use faction ones. So we keep up the requests for the things we would like to see sooner than later.
Though I think if they want to monetize it they need to make them an any faction lobi costume.

Nor should they be. Their ships would look weird.
Yeah I am lvl 50 and have the enterprise items and even though it is crappy I still go on stfs and kill voth ships in my NX class
my boffs all wear the Enterprise uniform although it has the mirror badge because the mirror badge looks cooler I would love to put my tac officers in the Enterprise MACO outfit
I'm not convinced that this stuff is coming.
I'd love to have more enterprise stuff, epescially phase pistols, but also the maco stuff.
But IMO it would more important to add some TNG area ESSENTIALS like the phaser weapons if that time (the rifles from first contact for example ect), but 4 years into the game they didn't get that quiet simple task done. Although that was requested a lot of times....
