RE: ESD Season 9 Revamp Feedback

So on the new ESD, almost all Starfleet officers are wearing Odyssey uniforms in various styles, this is awesome and looks damn fine in my opinion; however, I notice both the Chief Medical Officer and Admiral Quinn are wearing variants which are unavailable to players at present, when, if ever, are these going to be available?

(I've been hoping for Quinn's version since the Odyssey uniforms came out.)

    I don't quite care for the red white and blue decorating ESD, id much prefer steel blue/silver/blacks.
    I enjoy the overall design though.
    anyone else?
    Excuse me, excuse me, would you mind stopping that darn noise?

    I like the color design, tbh. Love the overall design. Btw, when you Find Sulu, go see what he says as you approach him, I died laughing.

    The new ESD uniforms look great. This is the first and to this point only good thing I can say about the new season since I face major technical difficulties :/

    Given recent 2410 developments, I would like to stop killing Klingons in the PvE queues.

    Let me just say that I'm beyond impressed. It feels so much less cartooney and so much more Starfleet. I love the layout, the viewing window to the docks, the shuttlebay, and everything else.

    So much better than running around a huge circle. Excellent job all.

    Be sure to check the Mezzanine and lower levels as well. The lower level is where all the foundry contacts are, I believe. The Mezzanine also has a direct view of outside ESD and the shipyard.

    ESD is about the only good thing in SE9 "undine cash grab deluxe" Players should not have Undine psychic controlled vessels EVER, next will be borg cubes, then SE 10 Server offline forever, thanks for the cash.

    Glad to see it changed for the better. The old look was overrun by too many just doing anything they want to do. This new look kind of keeps everything neat looking. Less running around in circles. Lift though really don't place you where you want to be. I'll have to explore some more. The new mission for 9 was long one but a good challange for me and my crew.. Use all what I had to complete that mission.

    Another highlight is that bank and mail consoles are scattered all over the place. So you don't have to run over to the same area to use get mail items or put things away.

    Okay the overall Design elements are much more 2409. The old EST looked like something from the TNG Era. But let us be honest, it does look like a Mall becuse the Inspiration was a mall. Now we have an empty lower deck and an empty middle deck just for the foundry contacts? And the stairway to the Shipyard makes no sense. On their own every element looks great but together they just do not match. And the gigantic shuttlebay you can not enter as well as the ESD interior Space with the Ships just is wrong. It looks like you are 100 feet tall. . Why not mor useful/usable space.

    A holo firing rage where you can test every weapons type even the ones From the Rep. systems. all free available while you are on the deck

    Same in Space a Holographic shakedown cruise program similar to the firs t contact day but also with a little more navigation not just fighting.

    I actually think that's a great idea, as long as my BOffs can wear lingerie on active duty.

    I too like the new ESD and the Odyssey Uniforms. But I noticed Admiral Quinn's uniform does not have rank on it. Seems like something easily overlooked and easily fixed. Good job though on the others, glad to see ESD look like a Starfleet Instillation. Now, if the Ody uniforms were what was worn on the Ent-F and the Jupitor Station uniforms worn on ESD/DS9...

    The new ESD interior is absolutely stunning! I'm very impressed! The boys and girls that worked on it did a really good job! Well done to 'em!

    I like that the Odyssey uniforms are being worn by the NPC's there and hope this practice will carry over to other NPC's at other locations and maybe even in the corridors of our own ships too?

    I have to ask is anyone planning to do guides for the colours of the Odyssey uniforms as seen on ESD? I certainly know that I'll use them! Thanks in advance! :)

    It's gorgeous. I like to just hang out there. It feels so Star Trek. I actually want to just spend time there, unlike the previous one. It is great for immersion, RP, and for the polish of this game in general. I spend so much time there that I think the revamp is absolutely worth the dev time.

    i think the odyssey uniform is perfect for that 2410 starfleet look how ever the enterprise crew and admiral tuvok should have been given the same uniform to contyinue the look of 2410 the old siera uniforms are ok but they should be for new players not wanting to purchase uniforms only ... hopefully cryptiic will fix this some day and continue to use the odyssey uniform for the game...

    I agree! I'd like my ships crews to join them so if anyone can supply the colour codes of the Odyssey uniforms as they appeared on the officers aboard ESD they'd be very much appreciated.

    I have to say, I do like the look of the new Earth Space Dock. It gives more of a sense for being at the heart of Starfleet Command, and we don't have to keep running in circles anymore.

    What I would like to see, though, is a little continuity on the shuttle bay. I like having the option to get to the academy without running all the way back to the transporter room. However, when you "Take a Shuttle to Starfleet Academy", you then appear at a random location on the Academy grounds with a transporter effect, just like beaming from the transporter room. With the new Federation tutorial missions rolled out last year, we already have a Starfleet Academy shuttle bay set built. Why not use it? Have the person taking a shuttle appear at the reception area, and perhaps put a vendor or two and a mail/bank console there for more utility. They can then take the turbolift to the main floor of building 1, just like in the tutorial.

    If you wanted to go all-out, give both shuttle bays the same options as beaming up from the Academy grounds, either taking a shuttle between the two, to your ship, or to your ship and leaving to sector space.

    I really like it. The old ESD was so ugly, it honestly gave me flea market vibes. This new design is so much cleaner.

    Is it time for DS9 to be decommissioned? Or at least given a facelift on the inside. It looks so outdated, and doesn't even match the TV series anyway.
