There is the supposed new tech and there's what you can do with it .
Cryptic/Gozer have been utterly silent (afaik) as to what this new tech supposedly does .
All I know was that a test map was in progress that had the division between kdf/fed erased and they all fought together as two teams .
That's not much info (to make judgement upon) , but to me it does not address neither the Death Machines VS One Week Admirals issue , nor the constant (unintentional) screwing about w/pvp powers when something in PVE gets introduced/altered .

you cant put everyone on equal footing either because of the power creep theyve introduced needlessly.

Not sure what you mean by "power creep" . "OP" ships/powers ? Doffs ?

Either you win or loose, but your graphic card does not freeze from the spam throwed by both sides and if you loose you know, that you lost because other side was better and had better skills, not because they had more time to get all the rep, DOFFs, sets and other stuff.
If Cryptic could only allow to stay on one level without leveling I would probably return to the game (leveling new toon to cmdr each few weeks is not fun). Or if there was some sort of "no cheese, no DOFFs, no sets" PvP area for lvl 50 (but this wont happen - money must flow, after all).

I have to agree that low level PVP is the best .
Few powers VS few powers -- instead of the over bloated power extravaganza that only multiple keybinds can make use of at this point -- I laugh when I think what else can they throw in this bloated soup at the next Tier .
When a low level player only has to remember :
This Heals Me ,
This Heals My Shields ,
This Makes Me Go Faster ,
This Gives Me a Little Extra Pew-Pew,
When the new player has to remember only 4 things -- he will concentrate more on the battle , and likely give you a better fight .
He does not have to deal with 4 offensive powers being keybind and unleashed as one ('cause he prolly can't keybind and at best uses them one by one) and so on and so forth .
