well looks like ill be holding onto those glossy photos yet another year if the game last till next winter maybe something there i can use. as it is now its a carrier and its t6 trait does not help me at all none of my toons fly a carrier anylonger as they were alts and a waste of time now. Lastly as a Klingon none of my ships have pets so, yeah back to my other game. have fun peeps.
Trophies for killing FEDS ahh those were the days.
Many players (myself included) have been interested in more T6 ships. This is a nice little freebie for the players. They could have easily made the ship a T5, but they went that little bit further. It's a nice gesture
Also, this will be the first T6 carrier. It might not suit your needs, but not having a carrier at T6 was a gap that needed to be filled at some point.
The bit that gets me is that unless you have a load of the items from the last year it's a 25 day grind to get the ship. If you don't have the other two thats a 3x 25 day grid. If you have 8 characters it's 8x 3 day grind then 3 x 22 day grind.
Either way it's 25 frikkin days. FFS it's insane. At Christmas doing that 25 days in total when the event runs for 32 giving only 7 days leeway...
I'm literally at a loss for the poor though processes used here...

with the alt toon discount you could jsut do the grind on all of them for till you got 120 photos and then continue on with only 3 of them for the full grind. once one toon has the ship at full price all others on account get a discount to only 40 photos.
but the 3 that continue on will still need another 80 photos for the other 2 ships.
and to poster 2 i never said some people would not enjoy it . remember at the end i said have fun peeps. not rot in hell or anything like that.

^^^^^ this so much this we needed a T6 carrier heck the romulans NEEDED a carrier itself and the trait works good for my Ar'Kif my scimatar and my tact trills jem dread not to forget my orions murader flight deck cruiser which my orion well have a trait since she flys all T5-U's lol
I actually find the daily race fun and look forward to trying to beat my record. I like trying to pass the person in front of me too.
This is one of the very few "grinds" I look forward to. Some like the Mirror Invasion get real old real fast but the race never gets old to me. I'm always looking to push it's limits, see exactly what I can do and what I can get away with. It's like when I played WoW's oktoberfest event where you run back and forth delivering barrels. I got it to a point where I'd already be back at the starting point while the barrel was still flying through the air to me.
looking forward for warp core. ship is nice and all... maybe some day i will fly carriers. anway have more than 1000 photos from last years so wont be problem to get it.

lol...check your math.the event is 42 days,not 32,and if you can't take 2 minutes to do the race each day,you didn't really want the ship anyways.the first year I had a falling tree take out my internet for 8 days and STILL got my chel grett plus a few days extra of Q pics
Everything that Cryptic does to give players freebies, introduce new content, increase rewards somewhere, and so on, is subject to someone immediately complaining about it, and potentially starting a doom / I quit / fire everyone / this sucks for X reason thread.

You get a free T6 ship...what? Do you expect it to just be handed to you for free with no work simply because you logged onto the game?
So, they give us a free T6 carrier, I think the first of its kind at this tier, and you don't like it. So don't get it. It is free and it is in a portion of the game that is apart from the rest. It does not directly affect anything else. Do it or do not do it.
There is no reason to be upset about a freebie not applying to you, they almost never do.
BTW, this is a 4 tac console carrier, I could be mistaken, but does any other carrier even have 3?

You don't get out of the house much, do you?
Free Tibet!
I think some people are just stuck in a perpetual pissing and moaning mode these days.
The release status of the ship is rather irrelevant to the OP'S still rather silly complaint. :P
Didn't you get the memo? Everyone is supposed to catered to personally these days
This is the new STO :P
It comes with this time of year.
