    When I saved the screenshot, I got a big chuckle. I guess this gives a new definition to UPS.

    To bad the interior is not brown.

    I like how the ships hanging are not floating, but hanging from wires.

    :::sighs ... Even I as a Klingon am drooling over not just this wallpaper but what it represents.

    With this out there, we had BETTER see the shipyards unveiled as a destination during the First Contact Day celebrations.

    Oh ... any chance we can arrange a few Klingon raids of it at the same time? :D

    Oh sweet, the Sovereign is even docked into the correct Drydock as seen in Nemesis.

    Does this mean the exterior missions that take place at UPS will also be changed as well?

    It's about time the Nemesis-style drydocks appeared, we've had to rely on TOS-style docks. Hope they appear on Foundry when we get the update.

    I hope that, considering the amount of work that seem to been involved, its not something that will just exist for a week but a permanent fixture we can reach by taking a shuttle from ESD and/or the Academy.

    With that and the Sovvy on the holoprojector, are they about to reveal a new Sovereign refit?

    You can actually cycle through different models while you are there :) I just choose that one because I like the Sovie :P

    WAT?

    When you cycle the holograms, does it cycle for everyone, or just you? If it's the latter, this tech could have HUGE implications (and applications!), especially concerning being able to do things like have just your (the player's) ship model being shown in an environment like say, through the windows of a spacedock boarding area!

    drat. Oh well, it's still pretty cool.

    Although, now I'm imagining fights breaking out when players keep changing the hologram from whatever another player wants to see.

    Allright, this is maybe a stupid question, but is this going to be a mission envionment or a static envoinment like DS9 or ESD, which i can visit whenever i want?

    Will we someday be able to change our ships a bit more there?
    Like changing the size of the Pylons a bit, or changing the position from where the Nacelles are connected to the pylons, for example?
    (Things like this may sound marginal but ships like the Assault Cruiser and Nebula Class desperatly need options like that!)


    Live long and prosper.
