I thought it maybe apt to create a place both fans and Cryptic folk could come to en mass to post their wishes for the game they'd be willing to pay for on the c-store. Hey, Cryptic has to make money after all...
Maybe, if popular enough, this post will get stickied. Regardless, I'll get the proverbial ball rolling with my current wishes in the game.
1) Class-specific bridges and interior. OK, this may not be viable for all starship classes given the work needed for such...but as a lover of the bellerophon class long range science vessel, I would love to see the voyager bridge given a black and white overhaul with the metals, and resolve just how folk are supposed to reach the escape pods which are on the opposite side to the intrepid design. I'd also love to see the black and white metallic overhaul on the voyager interior on other decks and areas and tweaks made to the windows, looking out...etc. Make me feel I'm truly on my ship if you can Cryptic...I'll pay.
2) Perhaps straighten up the Bellerophon class pylons and nacelles? If there is one thing that looks a bit off on the bellerophon class long range science vessel, it may well be the angled outwards nacelles and slightly dropped down 90 degree pylons. Perhaps a little more like the good old galaxy class ship the plyons could go straight out to the side and the nacelles neatly sitting straight atop of them? Hope you followed that bit folks. I question this "want" frequently...is the design as is what trely makes me like the Bellerophon or can a subtle tweak improve it further still I often wonder.
3) An areoshuttle as an actual shuttle...enough said.
But what about YOU? What do YOU want from Crypic? What would YOU be willing to pay for from the c-store?

A new tailor tab called "DOffs". This tab contains 12 "models", a male and female version of each department (Medical, Science, Tactical, Security, Ops, Engineering). These slots have access to most unlocked uniform options - for example, no applying the Veteran's "Admiral" coat to the generic crew - and are used to outfit the random staff generated by the ship's interior...
At one point, I've thought of attempting to draw from the BOffs in question - all security officers wear what the Security DH has on - with a "pants" option attached to female BOffs so the men aren't in skirts - however the difficulties of accommodating all the various "uniform locked" BOffs (whether said lock is to a specific uniform like the Breen, J'H, Voth, etc. or a different faction like the embassy / officer exchange BOffs) means that whole separate slots for the departments is easier, and since all the color schemes don't match up between male and female on every uniform - i'm thinking Mirror outfits and ToS Rommie to name 2 - having the separate genders overcomes that...

Kudos to you sir, ive been pumping money in to this game for 4,5 years now. Still waiting for a Star Trek Online game. :rolleyes:
I'd love to get the Planck-class and Allegience-class. And better models for the Jupiter and Typhoon would be great.
"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."

1) A dog vanity pet...preferably jet black for me. Ok, having a pet cat is better than my former jet black pet tribble, but still, a jet black dog would make my day in this game.
2) ALL the little gold ships. I have moments of frustration with my voyager interior mess hall. I want little gold bellerophon class ships rather than settling for intrepid ones. I'm sure a fair few other folks feel likewise on other types of starships...
3) Re-size the little gold ship trophies in the voyager interior mess hall...dang that's big for a little ship.
I'll keep my fingers crossed that these few do-dats can be brought to life at some point...
These are the voyages of the U.S.S. Pioneer...
Either decide to make a game or to make a dating application...half-assing both isn't getting anywhere, eh?

No worries... I'm an expert at pissing people off. I have a PhD in it... Thankfully my extremely cute looks keep me safe...
Okay on topic:
1) I want full dev support to KDF. More ships, more exclusives (Weapons, gear, items)
2) Faction diversity. Reverse all cross-faction consoles AKA remove all. No tech sharing EVER!
Plus an apology for even creating cross-faction consoles.
3) Make the Romulans a true 3rd faction. Don't care what you do, just do it.
4) Balance PVP. Simple. Remove everything with no counter. Don't add anything with no counters or placates. Less cheese.
Good call. Star Trek Dating Online. TRIBBLE:Online. I like it.
I don't think PhD covers it. But at least you keep some parts of the forums really fun to read!
You must be new here(looks at OP's join date), oh wait you are
also,
1. Dual torpedo launchers?
2. Breen armor set?
3. Heavy turrets? (would make more sense as a crafting thing.)
(unless it's Cryptic.)
I second these requests
I would like to add that I would also love an updated T6 variant of the Excelsior, (restyled and modernized of course) AND more ship customization options for a T6 Odyssey class.
I would also like a T6 updated version of the Scimitar. Perhaps something along these lines

For tactical I picture being able to set up turrets equipped with ship weapons like torpedos, beams and cannons that attack enemies on sight, upgraded with tactical consoles and new tower consoles that increase fire rate, arc, etc. Towers get perks/abilities like rapid fire as you level them like a ship. Fully automated, of course, unless otherwise directed.
I picture on the engineering side to build walls destroyable by enemies (to stall them) and repairable by the player, equippable with shields, science, and engineering consoles.
I picture for science I would picture support abilities such as rifts, etc. Equippable with science consoles, tactical tower within range buff.
Maybe intelligence officer towers?
I think using a ship would be OP, so maybe have people only able to use a shuttle to get around (if interactive tower defense, purely strategic would be awesome too). This would cause people to gear their shuttles up too.
I would think we could use some new duty officers to enhance the towers. I would love to use all different kinds of weapons too. I think there would be a ton of strategy involved, and players would be sinking dilithium and zen into this idea. I am surprised it hasn't gone this far already most players play this game for the strategy. I feel this would be amazing end game content, so does my entire fleet nerdgasming over the idea and would make me buy a lifetime membership I swear I will!
(Although capped and geared, this accounts not old enough to make my own post so if you like my idea copy and paste to its own thread for me)
-More specialization types for BOFFs (Pilot BOFFs for small craft, Diplomacy BOFFs with unique diplomat skills)
-Adding to the above wish, all small craft stations as hybrid career/Pilot stations
-An optional Tovan Khev instead of a mandatory one
-More KDF/RRF ships
-Orange nanopulse-edge weps =3
-Additional outfit slots for BOFFs
-More of a purpose for small craft than 'space combat lite'
-More playable canon species (Edosians, Deltans)
-A NANOPULSE-EDGE BATTLE AXE FOR TELLARITES
Helpful Tools: Dictionary.com - Logical fallacies - Random generator - Word generator - Color tool - Extra Credits - List of common English language errors - New T6 Big booty tutorial
- Accolades (more easy to find and search).
a. search function
b. separate into class pre-filters (event, damage, etc)
- Fleet bank logs
a. copy all log to clipboard
b. add date/time
c. add rarity in one letter
Example: G-[date/time]-data withdraw/deposit
- Ships
a. one button to unload all item of the ship.
Condition active if you have space on inventory
b. 4 primary slots (always on top of the list)
Condition: This slots have to be buy with zen.
In this slots you keep your 4 fav. ships always
there. Other ships are listed as always.
- Bridge officers
a. Your team slots. Is like previous one but to keep
you selected Boff for ground missions.
1) Choose your own rank. I hate being an admiral or called one. Not being a subscriber, let alone lifetime subscriber, I don't have access to the "official" uniform...which I like my crew and I to wear. That said, I've spent plenty of money on you Cryptic...so I hope we can choose how we're addressed (rank wise) as we level up. I'm happy just being a Starfleet captain and I refuse to be promoted or anything that takes me off the bridge of my ship.
Anyone get the semi-quote there?
:P
2) Type 6 material for Delta Flyer. I have a delta flyer and love it...but can we get the 25 century type 6 hull material option please? I have a type 6 material intrepid class long range science vessel, so this little touch would be spiffy.
3) Advanced customisation for bridges and interiors. Imagine just how nice the likes of the Belfast bridge and interior or Voyager bridge and interior could be if we had an advanced custom option of changing the colour pallet of them. You know, external hull, interior bulk heads, concolses, trim, fabrics, etc. If we could choose the colour like we do when it comes to hull...I think that would be nifty.
Oh well, that's all from me again for now...
These are the voyages of the U.S.S. Pioneer...
2) Ship sets costumes unlock similar to what we already have with ground sets which when completed unlock costume at tailor.
3) More cross-class ship parts just like we have now with T6 ships. Nacelles from Phantom can be use at Eclipse, etc. Ship parts pack in C-store will be grate.
4)
5) Ability to choose what mods will crafted item get. When I build something I know what I want to get as result, only variety is what quality (STO rarity) it will be. If I build chair it will have four legs, seat and backrest, it wan't get another leg by randomness.
6) Better Fleet logs. Fleet leaders should have option to see who, when, what and how much contribute to projects, etc.
7) Better Fleet roster system. Especially sorting characters by @handle.
With the level 60 thing they've now got the perfect opportunity to do this as your main character can be level 60 and your First Officer could play at level 50. So they wouldn't need to add separate specialisations.
Oh also incorporating active traits into the loadout system would be great. And ground and space traits should be separated like how ground and space reputation traits are to stop us having to change which traits are active depending on whether we're doing a ground heavy or space heavy mission.
1 - Customized weapon color using existing palatte - Want the phaser look but love the [insert weapon type here]? You got it
2 - Death/defeat penalty. When I played EverQuest, death = xp loss. When I played City of Heroes, death (defeat) = xp debt, where xp gained was halved; 1/2 went to repay the debt and 1/2 was actual xp earned. Ironically (?) CoH was a Cryptic game first, so why not use that idea for STO? XP loss is a bit extreme, yet would certainly have you rethink, replan and reorganize what it takes to succeed.
3 - Reward BOffs to wear faction uniforms. I mean, we have a DOff crew of races from all over the galaxy (I have three THOLIANS on my roster ... really?!). So, why not allow my Orion Diplomatic BOff to "join" my crew.
4 - Fleet gear gets it's own visuals. This could even be different for Advanced and Elite. OR (and watch out Buck Rogers) Fleet Gear to have customizable visuals using existing palatte. What those Elite Fleet engines to look like the Undine trail? You got it!
EDIT - 5 - Fix Aegis engine trails - To appear for all impulse engines (for the Excelsior they only appear from two outer engines when using the Refit saucer).
The ability to customize "Reward" BOFFs-or at least be able to put them in a Starfleet/KDF/Romulan uniform.
And the ability to promote your First Officer to Captain and use one of the ships you have in your shipyard. S/he could be like the "Fleet support" npc except s/he's either there with you all the time or the timer to call him/her again has a really short timer. It'd also be nice to move one or two of your current BOFFs into his/her roster too. (This option I'd want more than most.)
I'd also wish for a "house/home" of somesort where your Captain actually lives whilst not aboard the ship. An apartment on Earth, New Romulus or Oo'Nos that you can gradually upgrade both in terms of size and furniture. Making the best upgrades ZEN or Dil currencies only would encourage spending on it.
My wishlist is for Cryptic to fix the bugs, power creep, and laughable fiasco they call leveling now, but they won't do much if any of that because it doesn't make them much money. It'd also be swell if they stopped releasing new ships for purchase that didn't have terrible Boff layouts and equally bad console layouts. I'd have happily bought the new Pathfinder for a Science ship if it didn't have about the same layout as my Mirror Luna. Why would I spend $30 or more on a new ship when it's not going to perform much better than the T5 ship I got off the Exchange for less than 500K EC?
Vice Admiral of - Starfleet Command -
1. I'd like a 5 fore weapons, 3 aft weapons, 5 tactical console FED ship. I have the Scimitar, but even though it's Fed aligned, it's still a Romulan style ship. It takes up too much of my screen, and it's green. Just re-skin it and make it FED design (go ahead and make a KDF one while you're at it). Oh, make it T6 with intel seats and a mastery trait.
2. I'd like to do some pvp every once in a while. However, i'm told there's not many people that play it. Please add a Reward/Reputation incentive for people to play (losers still get xx for such and such) In fact, stick some "holy grail" vanity stuff (or ship/ground gear) so people can grind for it like Bikinis, hats, yoga pants, negligees and bikinis (you know, the good stuff that you mess around with on your 3d modeling screens).
3. I'd like a higher increase in Cannon dps or Cannon shield/armor penetration. Since Beams/Fire at Will get insanely high AOE DPS and equivalent single target dps, Cannons should therefore be more specialized in Single target DPS, or DPS within it's limited cone arc, to differentiate itself (otherwise all you would see is people doing beams/faw...oh wait...). Increase the number of shots from CRF/CSV or increase it's shield or armor penetrating power.
4. More crafting recipes.
5. Make UNrefined Dilithium Ore transferrable within the account bank. This will entice players to buy the account bank option, because it saves time to just get unrefined dilithium ore with one character instead of having to log into each different alt and going through the same farming grind all over again.
Thanks. No coal pls.
This is to exhausting...after 3-4h of gameplay, can't feel my hands...cause of the flying & fireing at the same time...
Believe it or not there are actually dating sites for trek fans. I don't believe Cryptic would stand a chance marketing that field.
