Delta Rising questions

johnnymo1johnnymo1 Member Posts: 697 Arc User
I realize not a lot has been released about the new expansion, but some of the stuff I have been reading has me wondering is it speculation or confirmed by the DEV team.

1. The intrepid interiors. I saw Tacofangs discussing this, is this going to be something in the z-store or is it given if you have an intrepid class, or is this something that is a mission reward?
2. Is there a revamped intrepid class ship being released with the expansion? Some of what I have been reading makes me think there is.
3. I have read that there are screen shots from Vegas of some of the t6 ships? there any truth to this?

any answers to these questions would help. Thanks!

    There are pics of some of the T 6 ships, but not much to go on besides a few shots

    Theres also pics of some of the new races we'll encounter

    1. It is coming to players but they have not said how

    2. There is a brand new game model for the intrepid that will be replacing the old model. No idea if there is a updated ship to go with it.

    3. Yes.

    I've been trying to keep open minded about the expansion and the new ships until we get more details, but man those things are ugly. The Warbird looks okay, but the escort and cruiser don't even look like they belong to the federation. Guess we'll see where it goes.

    I have a question: will there be done anything with icheb from voyager because his homeworld is in the delta quadrant and maybe he want to visit it there or something like that?

    Yeah, I'm kind of curious about an Intrepid refit also. I know Mark Rademaker is working on a Voyager refit for Pocket Books, so wonder if that will be incorporated in game like the Vesta class.

    Why would he want to go back there after what they did to him.....twice?

    Well if nobody had noticed, they revamped his looks recently. So it looks like Icheb could very well have something to do with Delta Rising.

    Besides, the guy has to get out of the K-7 Bar sometime! He's been standing there for nearly 5 years. :P

    I think that they only said that the intrepid is getting a new model and interior, but it might get a new zen version.

    I do like the new ships from the pics. The Fed ones look cool, while still fed-ish, and the escort looks like one of the defiant variants. The KDF ship looks cool but not too new. The Rom one seems great, it has the split wing and birdlike shape of Ron ships, and the angles and edges that were seen in the Scimitar (only large Reman ship as far as I remember).

    CBS could still say NO to those designs. So there's that hope you can cling to.

    As a follow up question, has there been any word of how to upgrade ships to t6, and when will the secondary deflectors hit the game for all science ships? Id Delta rising is going to be kind of voyager centric it would make sense for the secondary deflectors to appear on the most iconic "science" ship in the game I guess.

    I agree he's been propping that bar up for long enough. Someone check him into rehab...STAT! :P

    What about rep sets? Will they be upgraded to MK XIII/MK XIV or will we have to regrind?
