On a serious note certain things with in OHS7 are actually quit good other things well im sure they have been debated to death and i agree with some not with others.

Regarding the rep system i think waiting 1 day 15 hours just to get a
Mk X item is well a bit much, personally 24 hours i could live with or 16 or even staggering it as you go up the tiers ie 16 hours for x, 24 for XI, 32 for XII.
Why would you even accept such delays? That is simply NOT acceptable.

Personally i feel very ENTITLED to receive right on the spot rewards the game is making me PAY for.

I am sorry for those who keep pretending the Reputation System is content. It is not!

Romulus is content of a sort. STFs are content of another sort. The reward system is not content.

We already HAVE TO sludge into many types of content just to pay the rewards of the Reputation System ( whuch are totally overpriced btw ). No point slowing us down even further and gating our gear with more delays and fees of all sorts.

I could live with "paying" for reward if they were granted ON THE SPOT. The delays are really annoying.

Like the other guy said, i now log in the game every 1d17. I also do not buy Zen anymore and not doing much else either. I am simply not entertained by STO anymore.

The Reputaition-System isn't that bad, but it isn't so good as well. At the moment I've got more then 1000 Omega-Marks and no way to spend them... If we were able to turn them in for additional Dilithium (just like the Elite-Omega-Marks - Borg Neural Processors), it would be much better. I'm simply slowed down, I can't make enough Dilithium for all those Dilithium-sinks and I can't advance in the Reputation-System, because of the 40 hours to complete a project.

Before S7 was launched, you were able to get your 8k Dilithium per day by doing 6 Elite-STFs a day (turn in EDCs/Salvage/Tech), now you've got to do more (at least 7 when you turn in 5 Neural Processors for 1k Dilithium).

Now you are unable to create private PvE matches, meaning the only way to get the 3-minute Crystalline Entity Mission is blocked, the EliteSTF-channel is almost dead (if you are lucky you will see an announce for an STF, but it is faction-specific).

But if I think of all changes that came with S7, like the Dilithium costs for General Recruitment Doff Packs, I would be glad to have S6 back.
First one half of the so called Community complains: "Give us instant access to all veteran rewards, for going lifetime.", then the other half of the same Community complains: "I've earned 1000 Day membership, I want a special reward.".
Stop complaining, if it is enough for you, you could have the "Captains Table" for the real veterans, I don't want access to another dead social zone...

It's a big change from what was implemented nearly a year ago....

I honestly wish they had left the old system on top of adding rep..

Maybe just retweak proto drops to what they used to be when that system just rolled out.

I like adding options... right now we're basically regrinding the same missions for something else...

Forcing recycled stuff is just bad form....

I understand how heavy players will attain things 4x as fast as casual players... It's hard to find the balance...

I put in 4-8 hours a day with the new system, I'm currently working 6 toons through rep. I can easily just grind up on one toon for 3 days and have enough marks to carry me for weeks.. just log in 1d 15h laters....

I'd go for that - it would work just fine on old system, and if you can't get a particular proto drop you could just buy it on t5. Loot bags would heal economy and provide EC for projects. STFs other than ISE would be worth playing again. Fleets would socialize again. New Romulus would still be pointless, but you can't have everything.

As for the argument "Craptic would not get enough $ from dilithium exchange" - you can't get enough $ when there is not enough players. In its current form, s7 is forcing more players out than it generates additional income via zen/dilithium purchases. And don't tell me its not true - I already see what it did to my 260-player fleet. Before s7 I saw at least 8-10 fleetmates online at any time, with 20-30 at peak hours. Now its rarely more than 5, and all the veterans (fleet core, ~30 people) effectively left.

No.
I would ask that they write the KDF into the new update with a little better "nod" to how we are involved in the backstory of the game instead of making us suddenly the Red Cross with ridges.

Simple answer - no.
A DB rollback is NOT ACCEPTABLE.

However some 'tweeks' would be nice, like putting back in the old STF gear system, running parallel to the rep system so you can play the STF lottery for your gear or buy it outright via the rep system. Maybe even allow conversion of rom and omega marks to fleet marks and/or edc's and back so that the 4 different currencies would meld into a single one.

I still don't get why they actually call it Season 7...

...most of the stuff, most likely all of it (I just couldn't do all of it yet because of bugs), is basically copy and paste from season 6 or even before. Reputation and Embassy System, Ephons, Grinding over Grinding, History of New Romulous, you name it. And bug over bug over bug. Would I want them to revert S7? I wouldn't mind as it didn't realy ad something revolutinary to the game as everyone seemed to make me believe before it was actually out there. Am I happy with it? No.

To be dead honest I would like the devs to stop working on any Season at this point and for god sake start fixing all these bugs that are there for longer than just S7 or S6.
