    You watch.

    Just grab some popcorn and enjoy the entertainment lol

    Nothing particularly game changing will be released. There will be no free warbirds since they're not stale. (and I'll be really surprised if they give away the KDF ship with the leech console.. fingers crossed though)

    Giveaways like this are to serve 3 purposes. Get people used to the idea of using the zen store, increase traffic and to clear the shelves for the next set of goodies. With all the new content, some ships are getting close to their sell by date and are only useful as costume parts or to get you through the dull bits of levelling up.

    If you play enough be "entitled" to fly a free scimitar, then... you fly a free scimitar. (The Dil Exchange is a wonderful thing).

    I agree that! Costume wise, my guess would be the early TNG Admiral's uniform. It's so ugly, there's no way it could have sold well. :P

    How about Starship coated tribbles
    This program, though reasonably normal at times, seems to have a strong affinity to classes belonging to the Cat 2.0 program. Questerius 2.7 will break down on occasion, resulting in garbage and nonsense messages whenever it occurs. Usually a hard reboot or pulling the plug solves the problem when that happens.

    I had to go to the tailor to see what you're talking about. If you're right, I may refuse to claim out of principle.

    It's an account on a WEBSITE. You don't download anything. You make an account and claim a key to use on the STO website under "My Account"

    Wrong, you do not have to install anything by alienware, I just claimed a code with my current alienware account and got my new char 2500 xp just for nothing...

    Might aswell take the freebie.

    So it says:

    To claim:

    1. Log into the game on a Federation character
    2. Visit the in-game C-Store via the button on the minimap
    3. Navigate to the ?Appearance? tab on the left
    4. Scroll down to and click on the ?Deep Space 9 Uniform? item
    5. Click the ?Claim? button towards the bottom-right of the interface
    NOTE: If you already have this item, you will be unable to claim it again

    Yet no where in the APpearance tab of the C-Store do I find the DS9 Uniform...:confused:

    Editing for clarification for those who will joyously run in screaming "Then you already bought it duh!" : It is not in my "Already Purchased" section either.

    Glad I'm not the only one, no DS9 uniform in my C-Store...

    Edit: It appears I already have it unlocked somehow... Perhaps when I got the DS9 bundle? I thought that was just the admirals uniform... At any rate check to see if you have it already.
    I once again match my character. Behold the power of PINK!
