Once again. New ship for Fed (in fact 3 ships ing/sci/tac)... What about us?
To be honest I really don't understand the Cryptic way of think.
Now for season 7 Fed will get new ship. KDF we will not get new ship. Again...
you sound surprised we haven't got a new toy to play with? lol

My prediction is by this time next year KDF will have a new C-Store ship.
Who am I kidding....I'll get burned on that one.:D
Sometimes the truth is actually pretty funny!
Seriously though It would not surprize me in the least - and I am probably one with the least hope of a c-store KDF ship - that they will release a "last minute" suprize c-store KDF ship for the 3rd anniversay.
I am so confident they will that after the 3 pack Vesta(which I already have saved) all monthly stipend (oct/nov/dec/Jan/Feb) will be saved for this new KDF ship - it won't be a 3-pack but that's ok.
This is beyond salt in the wound... The last ship to hit the C-store for the KDF was the bortasqu' pack and since then not a single ship not even a piece of debris or anything...
Join my crusade I have to get the KDF something it is going to be called...
I lost my two front teeth now i want a Retrofit Negh'var for Christmas(Errr Wintery Season time!)
Wait wait, isnt season 8 supposed to add KDF content ? or was it season 18 ?
"Cryptic Studio’s Jack Emmert (2010): Microtransactions are the biggest bunch of nonsense. I like paying one fee and not worrying about it – like my cellphone. The world’s biggest MMO isn’t item based, even though the black market item GDP is bigger than Russia … microtransactions make me want to die.”
As a Fed player who also plays KDF (and has been finding it more rewarding as of late), I offer this tidbit from today's interview article on Massively.com:
The KDF faction has always needed more love. Can you address this persistent question once more? What can loyal KDF players expect for the fulfillment of their faction?
What started as a PvP-only faction has slowly been improving over time into a fully fledged PvE faction over the last three years. In 2013, we feel that PvE KDF experience is going to get even better with the addition of new Feature Episodes, new Adventure Zones, and more KDF specific missions. Once we feel that there are enough PvE missions for the KDF to go from level 1-50, we will open up the ability for anyone to create a Klingon as his or her first character. Looking at our development schedule for 2013, I'd say it may come a lot sooner than you'd think.
Seeing as the Vesta is an Odyssey version of a sci ships as it gets a 3 pack and universals the KDF should get a 3 pack sci ship also just like how KDF got Bortasqu 3 pack as an answer to the Odyssey.
And lets be honest, they could just take an existing ship model and tack it to a Vesta game mechanic and we would be happy. Make it a brace of Corsair variants, but no new skin until enough sell to justify it, then throw a new skin together and give it to anyone with the Corsair (sekretly a Vesta) ships. Done.
Heck, just make it a silver color material option or something, viola, we have a Vesta. Who cares if things don't quite line up right on the model at first, fix it later when we buy them.

If they really wanted to insight some Fed rage whilst at the same time showing some serious KDF love, they've give us a sci-based Mogai that has been "reclaimed" after further negotiations with D'Tan blah blah whatever.
KDFs with Rommie ships and nothing for Fed side but Vesta? Sounds like fair compensation, AND it's minimal legwork, just requires taking the existing Mogai model and making it sellable.
Yeah, KDF got shafted. Again. And the feds don't care. Again. In fact, I bet if you gave the KDF a ship as powerful as the Vesta is projected to be, there will be an uproar on the fed side. Guarantee.
And I bet... the next KDF ship will be... A LOCKBOX SHIP. And available to your local cry-babi... erm feds. And of course... not available to your local KDF players.
It is said the best weapon is one that is never fired. I disagree. The best weapon is one you only have to fire... once.
Do not lump all Federation players in the same instance that we don't care. I play Federation side specifically because the KDF side doesn't suite the way that I like to play. But that doesn't mean I don't care at all, far from it. I love the series Klingons, I love the culture, the background, the way they act, talk, and think. I just prefer to play around with the Federation ships as I grew up with Trek and like the look, feel, and way that the Federation characters play.
I see it as a completely moronic move to ignore the KDF players as they have been. The Vesta AND Steamrunner classes released on the same day? Seriously? We could have gone months without the Steamrunner, it should have been a KDF science ship or even a Vesta comparable pack or.....something!
Not all Fed players "don't care", know that you have allies on the Fed side that are just as upset as you guys are with how the KDF is treated.

Given the comparative number of these 'nobody loves us' threads (some justified, but still), I'm not sure its wise to be calling Fed players the whiners.
No, the Klingon side are very justified in voicing their complaints. Whining is when you have something but you didn't get all that you wanted, or you want more. The KDF have so little that it's not classified as whining and GIMMIE GIMMIE GIMMIE, it's classified as their attempt at getting a fair amount of content for their side just as the Fed side has. It's completely understandable.

I did say some of it was justified. However, blaming and hating on the Fed players, who aren't the ones responsible, doesn't accomplish anything and merely breeds animosity. My point is that there are so many threads that are nothing but anger and self-pity, and that accomplishes nothing.
Frankly I'd rather get rid of people like that from the community as they do nothing more than TRIBBLE off the KDF side. We should have a united front, both KDF and Fed side demanding more KDF content.
Wishful thinking, but still.

They were apparently too busy making 2 additional variants of ANOTHER fed escort for steam... Because the 3 Odysseys and 3 Vestas since the last KDF c-store ship weren't enough.

Yes it was a toss-up between which thread would start first.
Justifiable Disappointment on the part of the KDF vs. the Predictable Levi3 "rubbing-salt-on-open-wound-when-are-you-going-to-learn" routine.

No wonder everyone just uses the carriers...
...Wait, no it isnt.
I think it was season 81
Trade off, Feds get science as unique KDF gets BOPs (full universal boff slots) as unique to each faction.
Tbh, though im no KDF expert, but cant they just add existing previous tier skins to top tier ships?
Brandon Felczer @PWE_BranFlakes
?@CaptainGeko: Btw, there also another ship going live with S7 besides the vesta bundle. Do you know what it is?? Yes. But it's a secret :P
No you're wrong... they said 8 but... i belive season 88... i think is about a lot of 8
Take from it what you will, but I wish you all the best.

I think you mean "Season 8t gonna happen."
Let the feds spend all their money on a new crappy ship slightly different then the rest.
We can use our dilithium for our bases and now new personal drainage system.. i mean reputation.
