I dunno, my Fleet Defiant T5 still holds its own.

I really want a T6 Defiant though. I would pay real money for one.

I wonder if the other T6 ships will get a remodel like the Intrepid and Galaxy.

Some ship models really need to be looked at. Especially the Sovereign, it is probably the worst one right now.

Why couldn't they have made the Fed Pilot ship a T6 Defiant? Seriously its done barrel rolls and all that in the show.

The inevitable T6 Defiant will more then likely have a pilot seat. But seriously Cryptic.

Not spending my money on these.

Lagomorphic posted:

They will. They did the same thing with the intel and command specs. Release the big pack first and it'll sell because people want to play with the new mechanics. Release the iconic ship a month or two latter and people will buy it because its from the shows. It makes sense since a 9 pack of pilot ships is a lot less tempting once you can get a T6 Defiant with pilot seating.

The other ships didn't get the special powers though, only the BOFF seat.

Trendy says shes talking with the dev team about the levelling curve. Not that it means anything.

Though it will be annoying if/when it's only a pilot hybrid escort but not having the fancy maneuvers.



No other ships have abilities out side the main set, so probably not.

Anyone remember when the Undine were suppose to be the underlying villain of STO, not the Iconians?

The tie in novel implied a long war with the Undine. I'm almost certain at launch it was implied that the Undine caused Hobus.

Yeah, there's two big lingering questions. Are they doing T6 variants of the old ships? And, will there still be the alt discount or something similarly effortless to let alts acquire them? If both of those are "yes" then it's fine and it's just an obnoxious little change. If either is "no" though, you can pretty much be sure the retards have full control and there's no longer a reason to even pretend to play.

There is a Q&A at the bottom of the Blog.

The Alt Discount is still there. You just need to do the daily mission once.

The thing is, this was a problem on Tribble before they came out, and it was worse. 2-3 command ships on the same map would cause lag.

I like some of their modifications of existing designs. Like the Sao Paulo variant for the Defiant, or the Armitage

Though I am also quite fond of the Avenger.


I think their Romulan designs have been top notch so far.

But their Klingon and Fed ships could be better.

MikeJF posted:

I'm much happier with them lifting unused screen designs than with them creating their own.


Parts of the Regent class were taken from Sovereign Class Concept art done for First Contact.

Hell I wonder how many of their ships were taken from John Eaves sketches for the shows/movies.

He was also conceptual artist on Star Trek Online back when Perpetual was working on it.
