What are your STO content wishes? Do you want less bugs? Or do you want to finally have that tier 5 Connie? List what content you've been wanting for Star Trek Online, plausible or not.
My list is organized into a cliche top 10 list. I want:
10-more playable races and classes
9-hairstyles to not be sex-restricted
8-more ship types of minor species like Lethean ships and Rigelian ships
7-a playable Cardassian faction
6-more special additions like secondary deflectors, flanking, and comm array commands added to other ship types(Raptors, Destroyers, etc)
5-the space combat Z-axis restriction removed for full-3D space combat with dorsal and ventral shield additions
4-the expansion of non-combat gameplay such as diplomacy and crafting
3-Tovan Khev to be optional
2-additional BOFF abilities and console types, specifically to balance the slot value
1-additional BOFF outfit slots

I'd like for the game to feel more like Star Trek. A lot of the newer missions and environments are getting better, but I can't shake off that feeling of "wrong" when I do a mission with a PUG and see people flying Ferengi, Solanae, and Elachi ships just for kicks. It almost feels like Starfleet (and the Klingons and the Romulans) have sold out. Not sure what Cryptic can do about that at this point, but hey, you said "plausible or not".
I'm tied between wanting the Iconians to finally invade, and not. I want them to, because I think their story's been built up as much as it can and it's time for the real action to begin. But I don't want them to, because once the threat is over I have absolutely no idea where the story can go. Literally every aspect of the game's story is built around the Iconians.
I'd like the Merian-class to replace the ShiKahr-class. No special consoles or fleet version, just a straight-up 1 for 1 trade.
I want the NPC Scimitar and Falchion dreadnoughts to be green (unless they're controlled by the Remans). Romulan ships are green. Those ones should be too.
Tovan Khev should be optional.
I'll think of more later.
"Critics who say that the optimistic utopia Star Trek depicted is now outmoded forget the cultural context that gave birth to it: Star Trek was not a manifestation of optimism when optimism was easy. Star Trek declared a hope for a future that nobody stuck in the present could believe in. For all our struggles today, we haven’t outgrown the need for stories like Star Trek. We need tales of optimism, of heroes, of courage and goodness now as much as we’ve ever needed them."
-Thomas Marrone
More STFs and difficult ones at that. They are supposed to be raids, so make them be hard.
That's it for me atm.

No, or at least fewer costume restrictions.
More costumes.
More hairstyles.
Less spam and more subdued effects for abilities. Large battles (Particularly ground ones) can have so much TRIBBLE on screen it's impossible to see stuff.
Extensive ship interiors. You could set up multiple story or Queue based missions using player starships. Set up right these could provide nearly infinite content.
More costumes.
More locations and reasons to visit those locations. This game has quite a bit of content, just no reason to use it.
Less content revolving around Queues. Hitting a button and waiting for a mission to start with my butt stuck at DS9 is not exciting. The Voth Space Zone may have been repetitive and poorly set up, but it's more fun that repeating the same mission day in day out over a two week period.
More content revolving around Bridge Officers. It's such an under used part of the game and it's one of the best parts too.
More costumes.
And Picard Speeds, for god sakes, i need to read in Style.
This would not only alleviate the "too many Vice Admirals" issue and improve immersion, but also means that the level cap could potentially be increased ad infinitum for new content without having to devise increasingly ludicrous titles to go with them.
2) Additional costume slots for BOff
3) The ability to take a BOff from another faction and pay to have them converted to your allegiance, complete your own faction's full uniform set. This would allow for, say, a Romulan Republic Reman Male Engineering Officer to be used by a Federation player and put into the full range of Starfleet uniforms available.
4) Cardassian BOffs
5) Longer and more varied female hairstyles
6) All gear crafting adopting a system similar to the upcoming Kits revamp
7) Customisable ship interiors that can be used as the basis for tailored episode missions and PvP/PvE maps. I'm thinking about updating that proposal document in my signature to be in line with recent and upcoming changes to the game.
2. content of new seasons should be featured series (story) and not new reputations (combat)
3. new sector space map (add missing planets, nebulas, sectors)
4. Romulan faction as separate faction, no longer allied with kdf or fed in 2410 or 2411 (new new accord)
4. token to change species, gender via c-store (I don't mind if I'll have to customize my saved outfits at tailor again)
5. more doff chain missions
6. ability to travel inside Gekli like Hylasa aliens are doing in one of those fluidic space missions.
..and other already mentioned ideas
All of my yes. Wavy hair that goes forever~
I need Gangster Planet in my life.
2- massive expansion of diplomacy and research missions
3- rework of all Galaxy class variants (come on, the current models are an insult to players)
4- one galaxy to rule them all (no sector borders)
5- full 3-d combat with dorsal and ventral shields (players are not as dumb as you think, Cryptic)
6- turn Romulans into a full faction
7- more open PvP zones
8- expansion of the PET UI to include undockable pets (Aquarius, Monbash support crafts, etc)
9- ALL end game space sets should enable your ship to fly faster than warp 9.99
10- more environmental effects that affect your ship's systems (nebulas, planetary atomospheres, gas giants, corona of a sun...)
11- repair priorities (during combat you can assign repair crews to different systems)
12- more endgame fleet actions
13- upgrade rewards in ground zones (New Romulus, Nimbus, Nukara) to increase activity
14- return of some of the hourly events (marks event(!), MU, particle event,....)
2. More maps and game modes for PvP. Preferably including a ground capture and hold map; a bit like the Voth warzone (only not taking quite so long to capture stuff or it'd never get done).
3. More ships for old school fans (things that look like they're from the Excelsior, Ambassador, and Galaxy generations of ships).
4. Reworking of the rank system (by whatever means) so that the game respects my title choice of 'Captain'.
5. Some nice Elachi colony invasions for the other factions (those Romulan missions were awesome: more please!)
6. I really want to kill one of those creepy looking Iconian ships.
7. I realise that the Borg aren't as nasty as they used to be, but I still think that the battle of Wolf 359, and the fight from First Contact, really should be what we are aiming for here. I'd like to see a Crystalline entity type fleet action thing vs a super powerful Borg cube.
8. A merging of beams, and toning down of special effects, to reduce beyond distracting on screen glowy spam.
9. Vidiians! They're nasty, they're ghoulish, they'll steal vital organs right out of you without even killing you first, and I don't believe those manipulative Think Tank guys about a cure for the Phage for a moment.
10. More hair options for Caitian/Ferasan characters.
Norway and Yeager dammit... I still want my Typhoon and Jupiter though.
JJ Trek The Kelvin Timeline is just Trek and it's fully canon... get over it. But I still prefer TAR.

1. Odyssey's Aquarius fighter turned into an actual hangar pet not a Universal Console.
2. Smaller ceilings in ships and customizable interiors...though I read this is unlikely to happen since Cryptic says most people don't spend too much time in there.
2.a. I want to be able to fly from one sector to another from within my bridge. Click on a sector that is on the screen of my bridge and actually go to it.
3. As a leader of a Tier V fleet; more fleet bank space, more fleet ranks, and better micro-manageable control of fleet provisions.
4. More exploration maps and missions. Want more instances where it feels like my exploring actually means something, like multiple choice decisions make it feel more "Trek" and less...well...Star Wars...
5. I just want more story episode missions where I can go with my fleet and be able to split up and explore different parts of the map and report back to a single location and continue with the rest of the mission.

2. None of the deflectors in any of the space sets have a decent Flow Capacitor buff. The only exceptions being the Breen and Honor Guard sets, which have whopping +8 and +17 buffs respectively. If any new sets are added to the game, please put a good Flow Cap buff on it. Between all the different flavors of Tetryon and Polaron weapons we have now, this should have been an obvious deflector buff.
3. More craftable sets. A new space set and one or two ground sets would be nice.
4. More sets with warp cores, and also unique warp cores.
5. More space items with unique cosmetic effects. Engine trails and deflector dish glows add flavor to our ships.
Maybe also being able to do this to fleet weapons would be nice.

1. I'd like to be acknowledged by my crew on my ship, it would be great to (at least once per visit) walk onto the bridge and have a random NPC say "captain on the bridge" or similar. Also while walking through the ship corridors. Now I don't want everyone fussing over me like during the space dock lecture, but just a random crew member saying "hi captain" or two talking amongst themselves saying it's good to see the captain or anything along those lines. Apart from sitting in the 'big chair' I feel like a lowly ignored ensign where I should feel like a captain.
2. Change the uniforms of the crew. For the love of god PLEASE. There's nothing more jarring than wearing my favourite uniform (TNG Film) and having the crew on my ship in the generic uniform.
3. Fix the bridge seating. It's upsetting seeing my lovely first officer sliding off her seat, especially on a galaxy bridge. Also, it'd be nice to have someone in empty chair next to me (that's not essential though)
4. This one is probably out there and possibly can't be done. But I'd love have a holodeck on board. Nothing complex, just a simple 'space/ground fight against x number of enemy type y' and just using the maps already available. This would give a small amount of experience/rewards but would allow for completely solo play, e.g. no trying to find people to join a que when all you want to do is fight some AI.
5. Some kind of interaction with your bridge officers, I don't know if it can be implemented or not. But you spend most of the time with them, train them, promote them etc. and there is no substance to them. In some way I should feel more attached to them and it should be hard for me to discharge them when I want a new one and so on.
6. A proper Intrepid bridge - Voyager style!
7. Different backgrounds when you're in conversation with a bridge officer during a mission, depending on what bridge type you have.
- An loong STF every 3-4 months .
- A FE Series every 1-2 months .
- Sporadic KDF/Fed only content .
- New PVP maps every 4-6 months , that have environmental hazards & optional objectives too .
And if they want to throw us a bone , redo the entire sector space .
Either 1 zone to rule them all , or 4 zones (i.e. 4 quadrants) . No Nebulas , no Sectors , no pocket sectors .
That would have been a lot more WIN then redoing ESD ... for the 3rd and not final time ... .
Norway and Yeager dammit... I still want my Typhoon and Jupiter though.

Exploration revamp. Star citizen is coming, and it's way of exploration is going to make STO's look like complete junk.
Agree with Reyan, more aux style weapons. Love to see an aux 360 array.
Breen space set get a lvl 12 set like the Jem'Hadar, even if it's lobi.
Crafting redone. No need for crafting.
Uncommon 1k dil materials dropped to 100. That's simply over priced.
All KDF to be able to wear ALL KDF specific stuff. I mean for males, Orion and Nausicans have some great armor selections, but gotta play said race to wear it, but they are now part of KDF. LET US ALL WEAR WHAT WE WANT!
Get rid of duty vs off duty. Bought the merc outfit for my ENTIRE crew to wear, only my captain can wear it. WTF!!!!
Rank structure. Either gives us abilities and perogatives of an admiral IE promoting boffs to command ships and actually controllng a squadron, or divorce Rank structure from levels, or top us all out at Captain and reserve admiral ranks for those who actually run fleets. All of us are supposedly Vice admirals and LT Generals, but all we really are, glorified captains.
More Klingon bladed weapons besides the bat'leth. Love to wield the sword worf uses.(I'd look up the name, but I don't want to)
Redo the holy trinity of ships. Even if you play a sci captain on a sci ship, it still comes down to a DPS race. Time to step away from that and really define the roles better. Crusiers should be able to just soak damage instead of 1 shot killing because of specific builds, escorts/raiders should be your alpha strike ships and sci ships should be dropping helpful heals and traps like gravity well should be better, hell the whole science tree needs to be rethought.
7 of 9 parts. Yes you can't have guys wearing the skin tight suits, but what about the borg parts like the eye part or hand or neck? Why can't males use those? I didn't realize those were gender specific.
Flagship ships aka Bortasqu/Odyssey. Those ships IMHO should be the most powerful ships around and should be the HARDEST to get in game. Granted we have the 2 year aniversarry ships and they are at the VA level. But personally those ships need a revamp and should be the crown jewel of any ship to own. Instead they are merely OK. Granted the scimitar ships are that strong, but the bortas and oddy are just not at that level and they should be. Time to amp up the oddy and bortas to match the scimitar.
Romulans need more ships. Even if it's just 3 variants of the same ship. Because you go from the t'liss/T'varo to suddenly 2 sci ships, then you hit captain and hit an Eng and a tac ship, then you go to RA and actually see 1 ship per class, though those 3 IMHO are abominations of ships. Shps that got caught between a war bird and a scimitar, then at fleet level you get more ship.
At LT and LTcmdr levels for romulans they need to have a tactical and engineering variant of the two ships there so they are not forced into sci ships they don't have a boff setup for. And then they need a sci ship at the captain level.
There are others but I don't want to go on too long.

More ship interior options.
New bridges that are more like the last one they made that is free with all ships.

To be able to "explore"/travel all of the sol system. Could have swore that a LOOONG time ago we were told that we would be able to go to Mars, Saturn etc Still waiting
To spec into every skill With the Power Creep now being an issue I dont think this is gonna happen, but way back when we were told that the plan was to keep getting skill points even at max level so we could get everything...of course this was at the time of "Weapon Specializations" where you could spec into Phaser or Disruptors but I may just be nerco'ing an all dead wish item
An idea more than a wish here. Since now we have "pay X EC and instantly be here!" Why wasn't this added to the bridge..go to Bridge, tell your helm to set course just have them reply "that will cost us 300 EC Captain" and then just load the ship in front of the planet..wouldnt require too much coding but /shrug I guess it's way easier to just click and done instead of actually making something out of the bridge
Would love to see the Battlezone as a PvP Map; as well as some kind of ground team with ships in the air..obviously players cant do both you either do one or the other. The Glass Ceiling would be the Glass Flooring for the ships that way you cant shoot players with torps, but would be really cool to see ships exploding above your head! Also, add some kind of Artliery that if a team captures it a player can jump inside and deal some damage to above ships..a way for the ground and ships to work together
For example, let's say you can create a Full Auto Rifle with a Pulsewave secondary or a Compression Pistol with a Stun secondary.
And not only function, but model of the weapon as well. For instance, have a Mk XI Phaser Rifle with the appearance of a Mk I. You know, to match the rifles from TNG.
Also, loose pants (Loose-Long, Loose Mid-Ankle, etc.) costume options for the KDF faction. Those tight leather pants look very uncomfortable lol.
Increased ship interior functionality and customization. Please, for the love of Q, let me get rid of that blasted fish tank in my Ready Room if nothing else. I don't like fish unless they've been breaded and fried or lightly grilled and served with rice. Let me put a Floor Trophy in its place or something. Maybe some minor dialogue options with BOffs/NPCs (fixed NPCs like in Engineering, Sickbay, ship's lounge, etc. - not the one wandering the corridors) about recent events in-game (I.E. a Science BOff or NPC could ask the captain what it was like going through the Gateway after "Sphere of Influence").
Crafting revamp. It's half-way decent until it starts requiring "Unreplicatible Materials", then the cost (either in Dilithium or Energy Credits if you're buying off the exchange) starts to become prohibitive... Maybe bring back being able to craft attack pets or small craft (Since the Delta Flyer is in the C-Store, it could be replaced with the Type-9 Shuttle from "Voyager", for example), maybe even add a 'Technological Research' ground set...
And redesign Memory Alpha so it looks more like it's a Federation facility than some strange race's. At the moment, it seems to have more design elements in common with Defera than it does Starfleet Academy or ESD (even pre-s9 ESD), not really fitting for one of the Federation's oldest facilities.
Defera Invasion Zone rewards need another look. A Nukara Medium gives 25 Nukara Marks, a Defera Medium give 7 Omega and 13 Fleet, which leaves the 'Anti-Borg' feel of the DIZ like it's secondary to Fleets. Especially bad when considering that you just have to close fifteen spacial rifts or rescue fifteen redshirts on Nukara - but you have to recover thirty artifacts, rescue thirty Assimilated Priests, etc. on Defera. Plus, the Com Station up on the hill, give it a reason for being and having a tent in the Base Camp, huh?
More U.S.S. Kirk, Captain Thalin and Lieutenant Paris - you see them throughout the Klingon War arc, then after "Edge of Never", they disappear. The Kirk could at least appear for large scale battles like retaking DS9 from the Jem'Hadar.
More DOff assignment chains, especially ones that don't need a lockbox item (Temporal Device, Holonovel Fragment, Tal Shiar Command Code, etc.) or specific ship (Tau Dewa Refugee chain) to access them. While they're at it, they can fix Delta Volanis for KDF players, too.
^Words that every player should keep in mind, especially whenever there's a problem with the game...
