So I was in the turbolift on my way back from the Military/Tac lvl to OPs when something strange happened, I fell through the floor. This is what I found hidden inside our base.
As you can see when I look up its under OPs.
I only had a few seconds since I was in a Fleet queue with Fleet members, but it took my breath away. Can't wait to see what Special Project unlocks this.
I remain empathetic to the concerns of my community, but do me a favor and lay off the god damn name calling and petty remarks. It will get you nowhere.
I must admit, respect points to Trendy for laying down the law like that.
Wow on that first set, do NOT duel an enemy dahar master there. It may seem like a good idea at the time, but its a good way to lose a hand.
Good one. :cool:
And yeah, awesome stuff!!! See, this is what makes me so torn about Season 6. LOVE the new content, and I don't mind grinding for it, but I am terrified by the money grabs I see going on and am afraid that PWE will bring the Chinese-F2P-game-model I've seen before to STO--build up a gamer base, rip it off, then let the game die. Hopefully this game is too big and too good for that to happen, but we'll see!

So guess the next Limited Time Starbase Project unlocks Darth Vader, and tells us he's our father before we fall into the depths of the starbase?
I used Demo record (and the associated viewer that I found here on the forums) The Klingon Starbase has nothing under it.
As for the Federation base... Im really interested to know what this is... using demo record, you can move the camera down there without having to fall, and see several Type 8 shuttles and 2 Armitages doeck with the Starbase... very interesting. Very Cloud City...

Aside from the Cloud City aspect, my guess is that they are the Starbase's shuttlebay / loading dock. And the starships either is a prototype of a player shipyard (similar to ESD), a docking area (like in Star Trek 3), or a lounge area (which was something that was being worked out with the original ESD).
Hmm so it's got the walkways from The Facility in the Dominion FE.
Looks nice but it'll need something there to use to be more than just eye candy. I'd love a ground combat dueling arena to go there, complete with the ability to knock people off the platforms (brings back memories of Jedi Knight 2 and Jedi Academy).

OMG. SO TRUE. I loved the dual of the fates modmaps from those games.

I just glanced around. No walls.
Still, looks unfinished.
My guess is that the ships and landing pads will be moved up to the top level of the station due to a project or will get a more finished look if we go down there.
lol, a bunch of shuttles and 2 Heavy Escort Carriers parked at our base, why don't 'they' help out when the base is under attack
A friend in my fleet was joking this is why our base fires those torp spreads.
Haha yeah!
But seriously...Cloud City vibe and very amazing!

Anyone else having horrible graphical glitches at their SBs?

Joking aside, those pics looks very promising, I only wonder what tier we will see them at.
And those ships looked like the Armitage escort carrier to me..
"Impressive... Most impressive"
Cool pics though.
:O
O_O
Whoa.... I wonder what that does! Maybe one of the next upgrades lets you stick your starbase in the sky of a gas giant. :P

People need to stop spoiling the plot of the new Featured Episode. :mad:

I think everyone is looking at these wrong.
Once you're inside them, there are walls.
