What exactly do you think you are entitled to? Did you ask a question? No, you made a statement of displeasure and a snippy dig at PWE.
Not to mention he was getting in on the fun by making a sarcastic remark by making fun of how PWE might speak to someone.
Couple of points to make:
1.) The new system has it's flaws, but it's light years ahead of the previous system in terms of capabilities, new [procs], and it opens the door for ultra rare items.
2.) The new systems methodology for ranking is tedious for people who want to be good NOW. They did add the 'complete early' function for dil; if you're rich, you get get higher faster.
3.) After 2 weeks of using it, I'm trucking along well in multiple disciplines on multiple toons. Several alts are producing components which sell well.
4.) The 1000 dil R&D support packages are WORTH the expense. Grab one every 72 hours from the doff recruiter of your choice. Note: Romies get double access.
5.) The new system is expandable with plans for new 'schools' and the ability to upgrade items, perhaps even ships. more on that to be announced in Season 10.
Given you're back for a few hours, and you've completely sussed out the system (while those of us using it for over a month still have to develop) - your appraisal is a bit short-sighted.
Yep, the new system sucks. The just copied NWs system and adapted it a bit to require the use of doffs and broke the Doff-UI in the process.
The good thing about it: There currently is no need to participate. No bound-on-pickup items, which means you can get everything from the exchange.
Actually there is a forced need to participate, if you have an characters that aren't max level and you want them to have something other than White Common Gear.
I hit Lt. Cmdr. on an alt tonight. When I went to the exchange, there were virtually no weapons or ship gear for my rank (greens and blues). So I went to my old stand-by of the Dilithium Store, only to find it wasn't there anymore. UGH!!!
So now I have a max level sitting and clicking buttons to try and get the gear I need, getting alot of Common Whites anyway, and pretty much not playing STO, but rather a whack-a-mole mini-game that will suck even worse when I run out of all the materials I converted from old crafting mats.
It's the worst thing ever added to this game. By far. :eek:

That's strange, because I'm exactly the opposite: I and my wife are leveling a couple of new toons each, and using my main to craft gear for them.
Because of this, they'r getting decent gear and making it less painful to level the crafting. Only up to Mk X's (not spending dil on it yet), but end game is fine with purple X's.
Lt. Cmdr. might be a dry stretch, but there should be a ton of Mk VI gear when you hit Commander.
