This is to get some kind of vote going for the developers to see how popular this class of ship be to add in the game at some point deadline for me is the Fed year birthday. So we can finally get the Constellation Class in the game vote for it or not. Remember your vote does count so if you vote no and it isn't added don't cry when the players that do want it get mad.Sadly put you will have to type yes or no. Cant figure how to make it click on it.

Keep seeing threads for this skin and can't quite figure out what's the deal...

And the Stargazer class in game? A nice tribute to Picard's ship in terms of name but its still a non-canon model that I can't identify with much. The Cheyenne was nothing but background debris and was never used again from what I know. Its a matter of common sense, you shouldn't leave out the most popular variant of a ship type (since there is a demand for it it will sell just fine I'm sure).
More ship customization is never a bad thing either. The saucer exists already so I don't think it will be that long now.
On a personal note, it would be nice to see something canon added again after what feels like an onslaught of Cryptic designs. That doesn't mean I dislike them all, but I will always prefer canon over made up.
If it comes out, I will definitely pick it up
"Let them eat static!"
Because it looks different from those; and some people care about that.
Honestly, having few Fed ships I really like the look of is my biggest gripe with this game right now.
It's a big part of the series so why shouldn't it be in game? There are quite a few more that I wouldn't mind seeing in the game.

It's like asking what's the difference between the Constitution and the Galaxy, they're basically the same ship after all they both have a saucer, a neck, a lower hull and two nacelles.
I love that bridge design with the captain up front and the first officer at the station beside the Captain.
Sure, good specs and a unique console would be icing on the cake, but I really want the Constellation class in STO. It was one of my favorite ship designs from TNG because it visually connected the movie-era ships with the modern ships of TNG.
Don't believe the lies in this forum. I am NOT an ARC user. I play STO on Steam or not at all.
And the Problem with "canon" ships inthe game is that we have 4209/2410 not 2375. So by now i assume most of those older ship designs should be out of service. Actually from a historical point of view its ridiculous that there are still so many Constitution, Miranda, Excelsior and Ambassador class ships flying around not to mention the original Constitution and NX class. i love all the newer designs like the Bellerophon, Armitage, Regent, Venture Sao Paulo and the others because they look lik e we are in 2409
It's on Monday.
Norway and Yeager dammit... I still want my Typhoon and Jupiter though.
JJ Trek The Kelvin Timeline is just Trek and it's fully canon... get over it. But I still prefer TAR.

Don't get me wrong my Main flys a Fleet Heavy Cruiser Retrofit and i love that little ship, since STO came out.
I have seen that additional Saucer and i still don't get why they had to remove itagain from the Game. It's not like they where concerned about creating high quality ship models in the first place :rolleyes:, just look at the G-R and the G-X ship models for instance.
My hope is that they release something similar like the Tempest Class. A new BOFF/Console Layout for the Heavy Cruiser Retro as well as a new ship model.
But again i wouldn't hold my breath.

Well i think the Heavy Cruiser family (including a theorethical Constellation Class) are new build ships, similar as comparable Klingon ships for instance.
A (theorethical) Constellation Class would be just like that, a replica in the worst case or a brand new ship filled with state of the art equipment in any other case.
Basicly ships like that only resemble the Saucer/Hull/Nacelle configuration of the original ships, nothing else.
That is irrelevant. If it was on-screen, put it in the game. STO does not follow any particular rhyme or reason, each and every ship can be any tier and can beat any opponent. I think if it's canon it should be in-game. The Constellation I personally would like to see as a skin/console pack gimmick, given away for a special mission.
Constellation skin for all heavy cruiser variants on the character, a picard manoeuvre console slotable on the heavy cruiser variants, the galaxy variants and the sovereign variants (since Picard and all

STO does not know time and space. I personally do think a explanation like "we build replicas of old starships" hurts more than it helps. Just like the non-existant uniform code for players it's simply a gameplay feature Cryptic chose to implement and it should stay this way. I'm all for TOS/TMP ships at T5 because it's a Star Trek theme park and I like seeing actual Star Trek ships in my STF grind

Because some of us are still clinging to that apparently antiquated notion that things in this game should make some semblance of logical sense.

"Canonically" in this case means that you interpret "overworked" and "underpowered" as meaning "bucket of ****ing bolts".:rolleyes:
I kinda let logic go once I understood that STO would be about hitting as many nostalgia feelings as possible in the fan community. The best that I can hope for is consistency.
(UFP) Ragnar
Well, how the hell else are you supposed to interpret it? In case you haven't noticed, the Federation is fighting wars on 90% of its borders. That is not the time to be digging a ship out of mothballs that was "overworked and underpowered and constantly in danger of falling apart at the seams" 70-odd years ago.
Militaries don't do things for nostalgia value.

Actually, that could be a neat side-effect of the anticipated Picard Maneuver console/power.
Just like the Excelsior's transwarp engine, there is a 10%-ish chance that it would fail. Except in this case, instead of a "klonking" noise and no transwarp it is your Constellation-class ship exploding spectacularly.

though if it turns out to be its own tier 5 thing, that would be cool too. call it a survey cruiser or something, and let it use all the heavy cruiser costumes, and vice versa on the heavy.
