    well I'ld like some dyson scout destroyers, the added raider flanking and maybe miracle worker seating? with not terrible consoles/traits. I think would at least be able to have similar niche appeal to the original dsds .

    if I stop posting it doesn't make you right it. just means I don't have enough rum to continue interacting with you.

    Maybe the Dual Heavy Proton Cannons can be removed and upgraded from the new ships? Introduction of more Proton Weapons that aren't Protonic Polaron, or a single beam/cannon hybrid weapon?

    certainly wouldn't hurt. but I don't think they would do all that. besides I'ld buy the romulan set pretty much no matter what for my dyson themed romulan.

    My hope is for something we haven't had for a while, and I know i'm in the minority who want this but I'd like a new bridge pack/bundle.

    I'm one of those weird players who loves going around the interior of my ships lol, unfortunately most ships don't get proper interiors anymore, hell most don't get more than the exact same bare bones bridge (you know the one i'm talking about :( ).

    Orion, Gorn, Nausicaan, Catian, Vulcan, Terran Empire, maybe even a section 31 one, all would be nice additions.

    I would like some new Gorn ships and non-science for a change, all four Gorn ships present are science based after all.

    Personally, I would very like T6 Dyson Sci-Destroyers. Just make that 4-th front weapon normal slot - so we could upgrade it, or exchange it for something else… and maybe add experimental weapon slot (active only in tactical mode).
    Edit:
    … or maybe make it switchable between 3 modes: Sci, Tact and Cruiser for Eng?

    I actually wouldn't hate this, even if they kept the protonic weapon. Can't we get whatever kind of protonic weapons (protonic phaser, protonic disruptor, etc.) we want now with tier 6 Dyson rep?

    Don't let them promote you. Don't let them transfer you. Don't let them do anything that takes you off the bridge of that ship, because while you're there... you can make a difference.

    T6 Dyson Destroyers would probably be an auto-buy for me.

    New MW ships would mean I'll save the money.

    I just don't know what would happen to me if your suggestion came true. Probably I'd end up as a logical singularity.

    Be careful what you wish for. A new Mega Bundle may come with a new Specialization to grind.

    No.

    And the protonic polaron weapons are not proton weapons.

    MW is quite useful once you figure out how the powers work.

    Oh, ok. I've only leveled Dyson to tier 6 on one character, and not one who was going to use protonic. So i didn't look. Thanks for the correction

    Useful - yes. Ships fun (to me personally) - no.

    I wasn't going to say the Dyson ships because I thought it was just too unrealistic, but maybe the demand is actually there.

    I picked them up a few months ago and I have to say I absolutely adore the transformation mechanic. Not because it is or is not useful, but because it looks cool as heck. I also strongly enjoy the other parts of them (except for the slightly horribly messy UI on my small screen).

    I used the Rom version for my science Reman and the KDF version for my science Orion for a very long time. They are great ships.

    Actually seeing a Dyson scout ship might be interesting to see, in which you switch between the science mechanics (analyse, ltc science, and sub-system targeting) an something like the tactical/escort (experimental weapon, higher turn rate or additional weapon spot, and a ltc tact spot) or cruiser mechanics (like the cruiser commands, higher power settings base, and a high ltc engineering seat) with the raider mechanic being baseline. Just hope they would make/change the dual proton weapon the tier five dyson had into a experimental weapon instead that we could slot, since than if you were running something like a non-ptoton/protonic type set you could switch it out instead of being forced to use it via it being locked in place.

    Another interesting idea might be pilot battle-cruisers for the new mega pack.

    Nice. So it sounds like a mix of escorts and battlecruisers. I can work with that...

    I'm a bit disappointed that the hints are for DSC ships, but I'm not really surprised. I was hoping it would be a Scout bundle since that would fit the standard pattern, but it makes sense that they'd want to push DSC content to the forefront for a few reasons. Some of the DSC ships are pretty cool or have some potential with a 2410 reskin, so it'll probably turn out okay.

    Right now as far as the Nova is concerned, my bet is a two- or three-pack with other faction Scout ships, probably Romulan, possibly Dominion, but more likely just a twofer with KDF and FED.

    I am concerned that it looks like just Fed and KDF. Nothing that gets me riled up or anything, but it is a little disappointing.

    Do we know what the Georgiou looks like?

    Well... If anyone wanted a two-faction four T6 ship (that aren't even Fleet grade) and one T1-4 ship pack for 12000 Zen, it's your lucky day: https://www.arcgames.com/en/games/star-trek-online/news/detail/11084823-the-discovery-operations-pack!

    Hopefully there ends up being more because it ended up being just 4 ships in total. The price for which is laughable even when you consider all the goodies/extras that they added in.

    I think they are trying to take advantage of the discovery fans.
