Ship schematics, arena rewards, new ships - feedback (title edited ~Shan)

Hey TP, what’s the point of cranking out new ship after new ship if you never update the arena schedule so we can actually finish and use any of them? We’re just repeating the same arena schedule from last year. By the time the current schedule plays out, that means it’s been what, at least 17 months since the last time the schedule was updated?
Meanwhile, next month marks the third time the Shenzhou has been run in arena, a ship so old it’s been in Dabo for what, at least a year? You think maybe it’s time to consider updating drop rates in arena, updating the schematics in Dabo, updating schematics in daily rewards, updating schematics quantities in premium packs, updating the arena schedule, or maybe even all of the above? Because 2+ years to max out ships isn’t exactly awesome for players.
Right now we’ve got 6 legendary ships that have never even been run once in arena, with a 7th now on the way. By the time some of those get a second run in arena, they’re likely to have been in the game for more than 3 years. I mean if you guys think it should take 3 years to max out a ship, so be it. But personally, I think it’s pretty awful.

It's amazing to me they don't offer these in cash offers when they debut them.
They would almost certainly get more people willing to pay $50-$100 for 3-4 24.99 offers for 1500-2000 schematics each to max the ship. Right now, they have to get almost no one willing to pay ~1000 dil per 150 schematics. In the three years of new ships while I've been playing they haven't even tested this out to see how it goes over.
Well, WRG/TP has changed some things. Maybe they will test some of these ideas out.
I'm 99% sure Shan did not mean for that response to come across as dismissive as it sounded. Just poor phrasing.......
It would have to be a guaranteed offer, nothing like what DB did when the ISS Defiant was released that only maybe dropped new schematics.
In the beginning there was such an offer. 6000 schematics for 26 €. You could built your ship to level 7
1. Extended voyages still get stuck.
(For Years this bug has existed)
2. We don't need more 4* ships.
3. We don't need more ships we can't complete in a reasonable time frame.
4. We need existing ship traits to be removed from the voyage pool that do not have corresponding 5* ships.
5. Dabo, and the Portal packs need updated ship schematics.
What is going on over there in all seriousness?
Assimilated Voyager
Enterprise A
Enterprise E
Federation Fighter
Jem Hedar Flagship
The Artifact
La Sirena
Hirogen 2 star
There is enough there to update the rewards, why keep the same old ships???
I know, that's why i put the "
This gave me a giggle. Also I wish the text emojis stayed lol.

Ships? Wait to randomly accumulate a few thousand schematics. No upgrades, no leveling, just get them in Dabo (maybe), as a random drop on a voyage (maybe), as a random drop in a pack (maybe). There's no where to farm a warp reactor upgrade, no where to research more efficient phasers, no way for me to have any control over it at all.
Every other game I've ever played with space ships were either no customization/upgrade at all, just move and shoot and get something better at a specific point in the game, or had *some* means of improving the ships at your pace, not at the whim of RNGesus.
The ships don't have a lot of impact on gameplay - just ship battles and an AM base for voyages - and I get that any kind of other upgrade system would be pretty complicated. But the arena might be worth paying attention to if I knew I could actually do something to improve my ship instead of just hoping I get a Killy in my next begold.
Edit: many hours later I see a rather stupid autocorrect...
