Great looking ship, however when I purchased mine it did not come with the console. I checked on the ship, my item bag, even my bank but it never appeared anywhere.
I like the way the ship looks. its mean looking and vicious. A good path for the BoPs to go down. However I also did not receive my console. I will test out the console as soon as you give it to me and let you know. It was the console I was most looking forward to testing on tribble and now I cant. This should have been an emergency maintenance issue when you released all the ships last week.
I also like the look of the ship, but I didn't get the console that the ship is supposed to come with either. A real bummer, since I've been wanting to see the Subspace Jump in action.

I Must agree Great looking ship But i to got no Console it must be on Back order so i'll wit to post more when it arrives..
Not only did I not get the console, but I have ship plaque won't work to get the unrefitted version either. Something dreadfully wrong in the ship yard!
But, I love the look on the thing.. My TAC captain flies it, and also flew the T-3 Refit so I brought the quad cannon with me of course.
Same thing for me, no console. The ship looks great. I'm not exactly pleased as I used my last amount of test points to get the ship though. I expected a console, what i got was a skin. hopefully this will be resolved in the next patch tomorow.
Console's ability works fine, and I can't see it as OP so long as it sticks to BoPs, might work good with raptors/destoyers too.
Cooldown is too long, should be equal to the Saber's GTFO console.
Torpedoes will follow you after you jump.
Autofire is not tricked by jumping
Visual effects like Hazard Emitters follow you after you jump
not related; Tactical, Science, and Engineering team no longer work on any targets but yourself. Good when scrambled, bad when trying to heal a team mate.
Tractor Beam follows you even while jumping
All incomming fire still follows you while jumping
Overall teh Cool down seems long.
The TP jump is really quick and fun, but hardly OP or even that disruptive to combat in that it offers no buffs and ever effect on the user follows the user.
I enjoyed it very much.:)
Finally decided to break down and buy this (as after three weeks of no sto while hoping they'd let me use my captain token i was just getting impatient). Lots of fun, nice effect/console, but as people said, there are tracking issues.
One thing I did like, though I know it's a standard feature, is the ability to mix and match parts in the ship tailor. that was a god-send, because this ship, with it's bent wings, is fugly imo.

I do honestly think, considering the nature of BoP designs, that all BoP pieces should be usable in the tailor, just unlocking more as you go along.

That's not something i'd be against, tbh, though i don't know how practical it would be, and then there's always those that have that whole "wolf in sheeps clothing" thing going on.
personally, if that was available to me, i'd just look like a brel the entire time lol.

Well, it's not like someone would fly around in a lower tier ship...

I agree and it was awesome meeting you (of sorts) the other night.
I wonder though if anybody has tested if EWP follows you if you Jump?

As a PvPer I tell you that the WOlf in Sheep'S Clothjing is not a PvP problem. All PvP is tier-based. No one believes anyone will be flying a low tier ship into a higher tier PvP encounter.
The Bird of Prey is also the best example where it would be pointless anyway - The B'Rel is a Tier 1 BoP and a Tier 5 BoP.
And we already have ships that are Tier 3 or Tier 4 and Tier 5. So it's irrelevant.
Heck, and we now got Pay-To-Win Ships - Are you fighting a Nova or a Nova +1 or an Intrepid, Intrepid Retrofit or Intrepid Refit? YOu don*t know until you click the info button.

that was what i assumed, that you just looked at the rank and prepared yourself for a t5 player, regardless of ship, but then i see people going "wolf in sheep's clothing". I've never understood it personally.
I don't PVP, so the B'rel comment was purely from a canon rp pov, which is what i'm heavily in to. i loves me some canon ships, though i have to admit some of the new cryptic designs do appeal at times.
I've been teaching myself to adapt to how what i'm fighting acts, not by the information the game gives me. This comes from the fact that the game can 'lie' in a sense. Target someone in a dreadnaught and hover over their icon and get "Fleet Escort" read out to you. It's nothing anybody's doing, just a flaw in the game that really only effects PvP, and so is mostly overlooked.

I think it comes all from one post of dstahl that to me just showed how little he knew personally about PvP. Which isn't necessarily bad, not everyone has to PvP (no, really!). But it gets now repeated over and over again, and it is just plain wrong.
We can talk about it again when Cryptic makes mixed tier PvP possible. But as long as the power differences are as large as they are, that woudn't work anyway. (Which doesn't mean they wouldn't try, but... well, it would fail for other reasons. And even then - if you know there is a Tier 5 ship out there of that class, prepare accordingly.)

I doubt that will happen, but once it's "fixed" you should be able to discharge it and just requisition a new one for free.
Edit: actually just did that. I had discharged my old ship previously, but I got a new one this morning and it came with the console.
I guess third time will be the charm.

Wait.. my VA tac is still flying in a Nova...
Though I don't take a lower tier ship into pvp
I still think this is a neat idea.

Indeed it was awesome, and no, we've still got several tests we're going to run still to test this thing out. And the other ships once we can.

Or is this Monday morning getting the better of me?
