    As a relatively new player of STO, I regularly notice things and wish for things that many of you take for granted or have come to accept. I thought this might be a good topic for discussion!

    Exchange Filters: I'd love to be able to have more search filters on the Exchange. I regularly need a Doff with a particular trait, for example. Or I want to set a price range on something I'm looking for. I also see that searches are limited to 400 items, so a few more filters to limit searches would be awesome.

    Ship Leveling with You: I love my Constitution and my early vessels. I SO wish there was a game mechanic to "level them up" so that they'd be useful at level 50.

    So, what do you think would be a nifty addition to the game?

    I kinda agree, I was just getting used to my Constitution ship and poof it was on to the next ship. Other than customize my Embassy ship I don't think I ever used it for more than one mission.

    I personally would like to see a better map system. There are times that forget what sector exactly I'm supposed to be in as some of the missions only give you system. It's easy to get lost in space. Constitution light

    Well, at least that part's realistic. :p

    I'd love to have proper space flight like in Bridge Commander.

    And I agree, I love my old Connie but it's pretty worthless now. Even if it doesn't level with you, there should be an option to refit it at a Starbase and bring it up to your level. Maybe the first re-fit is free, the others you have to pay in game credit for.

    The T5 refit of a Connie has been a long standing wish, kind of the same with the Miranda.

    The Exchange has been in much need of search ability functions, but I think that has always been low low low low priority.

    I'd like to see a lot more cosmetic and customization options that was promised/hinted at by Stahl in one of his recent addresses. Things to make the immersion and RP factor a bit better.

    I definitely agree on all the topics here. These changes would make some things a lot better. Customization is something I really wish we had more options with too. For example, more options to customize the inside of your ship, like choose your bridge layout, corridor style and layout and engineering layout, without having to buy it through the c-store and being able to mix and match different layouts. Then there is the crew uniform customization that has been talked about but not implemented so far. And I wish we could have more ship styles to have interchangeable parts to work with (maybe even mix and match parts of ships from different categories, like a Luna-class ship with a Sovereign saucer and nacelles). But I guess we just have to wait and see if they ever get these kind of things fully up and running in game.

    Exchange filters is a common complaint, you see it pop up on the STO forums once a week.
    They'd never have ships level with you though, as that would undermine a part of their business model.

    Yes, quite true. I wonder if they could introduce them as "Fleet" variants. That would appear to be a win-win as it would generate either C-store buys of bundles that include the ship or the outright C-store buy to get the cheaper 'fleet cost' in modules.

    I think it would be cool if the rest of your ships interior changed along with your bridge. I realize that interior corridors would be a mass produced item and similar between ships, but the addition of ambient lighting would be nice. Kinda ruins the immersion when I go from a red/orange purple bridge to sterile gray/white corridors

    THe big one for me is the fact that my crew has a different uniform than my bridge officers.

    I really wish I could create default uniforms that are worn by the generic crew and automatically applied to boffs that I bring on.
