NotLegion is currently in its formative stage. Unless I'm wholly underestimating CCP, they're still in the stage of getting things to feel and work right.
Major systems aren't nailed down yet, and this is the >best< time to make suggestions and give feedback, before development resources have been spent on features.
As such, I ask you, contact your CPM representatives (Yes, they are in fact alive and in active communication with CCP), and tell them what you want. They will explain to you how you can best present it to CCP (usually in the form of a concise powerpoint presentation), and once you feel like it's ready, they will ship it to CCP for consideration.
Make your voices heard >NOW<.
I understand that we don't know enough to really make specific suggestions, and that will probably remain true until FanFest, but you can still suggest very broad things.
Balance suggestions are irrelevant, general design suggestions are.
Here are two examples of things I did:
Graphical API suggestion
PvE raid system concept
Your CPM representatives are:
Breakin Stuff
Sgt Kirk
Cross Atu
Darth-Carbonite GIO
Aeon Amadi
Zaria Min Deir
Kevall Longstride
Most of them are available in the DUST 514 Veterans Discord channel: https://discord.gg/0o2qgQkvz7dC6fIM
There is a dedicated subchannel called #port-discussions - This would be the best place to discuss your suggestions and ideas.
Make your voices heard!

Seems appropriate for the 1st though.
We can make guesses.
And it's early enough in development to change direction, so even if your suggestion doesn't fit, if they deem it awesome enough they might even change parts of the game to fit.

Hey, in the end they're there to make money.
If something looks like a good idea that would increase player retention, I don't see why not.

Merc, I know it's the 1st but you've been here long enough to know better. Bad cat. Bad. Hey, in the end they're there to make money. If something looks like a good idea that would increase player retention, I don't see why not. For starters we don't even know if they're allocating more staff and funds to the new game, or if it's just going to continue to be a tiny project like it has been the past few years. They've proven they can make money on the product without doing anything groundbreaking, so I'm skeptical that they're going to pull out the stops on the new project. Maybe next year when they finally put out some information that we can sink our teeth into I'll consider getting enthusiastic again, but until then I don't see the point. We have 4+ years of awesome feedback and ideas here, I doubt much suggested now will be too different from the literally thousands of things we've already suggested for the game we thought we were going to get.
The fact that they're going for a new engine, which means a LOT more man hours of work to get things up and running, tells me they're serious about this.
It wouldn't be hard to slap the current DUST on PC with higher res textures and models and work from there, if resources were a big concern.

It wouldn't be hard to slap the current DUST on PC with higher res textures and models and work from there, if resources were a big concern. I've just done too much assuming with this game to give it any more positive energy until I see actual positive results. This game seriously has the most unreasonably loyal fanbase of any game I've ever played, so I'm certain they will continue to get plenty of feedback until that time. All I've ever wanted was for this game to do well and get big and actually have a meaningful connection in EVE. Until I see some concrete evidence pointing in that direction, I don't think my cynicism will let me go. And while a new engine could mean a lot of man hours, that doesn't necessarily mean more staff or funds. It could simply mean that we won't see an alpha until this time next year.
I get your stance, I won't judge you for it.
It's completely understandable.

Just look at the game's codebase, I heard it's so legacy, dinosaurs are roaming around it.

wat for those who want to give suggestion to cpm. those are the collective lines from them before the annonucement of the end.
They told you what they knew.
Notice how there was an extended silence right before the announcement? It started when they got the news that 1.3 isn't happening.

Don't forget the T-Rex, so we have something to laugh at!
Silly T-Rex's and their silly little arms.
