I have an idea, how about you make the universe Dynamic for example:
say for the Borg red alert how about if you don't stop them before time runs out then their space expands and to take it back you have to band up with a bunch of players and take back the system it would make losing more impact more the more they take the harder it gets to take back.
i know it could be a bit of a long shot a lot of things would have to change.
Fleets would be more important when you could choose where to make their star base and that they could lose it if they don't defend it.
i don't care if they have to make a new game for this i just think its a cool idea. of course there is way more that could be done to sto that make it into a living universe, comment what you think and your ideas

The closest you will get is Star Trek Birth of the Federation released by Microprose (defunct) back in 1999. Good luck getting it to run on a modern OS though.

A normie goes "Oh, what's this?"
An otaku goes "UwU, what's this?"
A furry goes "OwO, what's this?"
A werewolf goes "Awoo, what's this?"
"It's nothing personal, I just don't feel like I've gotten to know a person until I've sniffed their crotch."
"We said 'no' to Mr. Curiosity. We're not home. Curiosity is not welcome, it is not to be invited in. Curiosity...is bad. It gets you in trouble, it gets you killed, and more importantly...it makes you poor!"
No, it is not. It is an abandoned game... Well, not really abandoned, I am sure Hasbro still owns the rights to the game.
It runs fine on Win 10. You just need to install 'dxwnd' which acts as a 'moderator'. And it's Abandonware now. You can get a 'multi-mod installer' version and apply various mods to it.

Even something much simpler, adding some randomization to existing queues would make the encounters less scripted and feel more realistic. It could be as simple as what types of ships warp in, with certain abilities, adding new optionals or changing mission parameters. It only takes a few of these variables to interact randomly to end up with a ton of variation.
unless they buff the borg immensly but then again a lot of low level players will complain on how hard the borg are OP and needs to be nerfed, it is a vicious circle, so no
Not so bad if Klingons or Romulans lose to the Federarion. That seems to be where STO is headed anyway.
If the Borg win, I suppose we could fly our assimilated ships around assimilating strange new worlds, but if Species 8472 wins we'd all perish, (or so I've been told.)
Eventually the universe would grow lop-sided, and to maintain the current degree of diversity it would require a massive deus ex machina which, considering the complaints about the current lack of options, players would hate.
Dynamic universes are for games with a referee to determine the extent of change, or for games with an ending. STO is niether kind of game.
if this was to happen i think they would make the borg overpowered so they are way harder
