Look at the ingame calendar, hearts and minds is there for Halloween. And having a FE run the same time as the crystalline event is totaly do-able ( it doesn't take a whole day to get your crystal shard ).

Of course it's do-able (depends on how many characters you're doing it with, though), but they never did it before ... they usually don't "throw around" with content this way, and it might not be the best idea promo-wise ["Check out our new super-duper FE, and btw there is still this CE stuff as well"] ... my guess is they only did the CE-Event, to bridge the time till the FE ... knowing it'll be delayed for ~4 weeks ...
PS : My guess ... 24th after the CE-Event ended on the 21st ...
PPS : running several events at once just pisses of Casual players, and others which are already complaining, about not having enough time to complete Event *insert here*
Patch Notes : Resolved an Issue, where people would accidently experience Fun.
The question here is whether the FE is an "event" or whether it's just an FE Mission, like the other FE Missions currently in the game. If it's just a Mission, which always grants the Alien Carrier on the first play-through, then they can launch it at any time because it's always available to be played. They don't need to wait for a specific date or an event to end.
Plus BranFlakes never said it would be out in October in his update. He simply said it would be out before Season 8, and Season 8 could be in December.
STO is about my Liberated Borg Federation Captain with his Breen 1st Officer, Jem'Hadar Tactical Officer, Liberated Borg Engineering Officer, Android Ops Officer, Photonic Science Officer, Gorn Science Officer, and Reman Medical Officer jumping into their Jem'Hadar Carrier and flying off to do missions for the new Romulan Empire. But for some players allowing a T5 Connie to be used breaks the canon in the game.

I'd LOVE to look at the ingame calendar, believe me, but I can't get ingame at the moment; I'm one of those who keep getting crashed out after the 10-3 patch.

I've had it disabled since the chaos with the LoR pre-patch...
I also tried "Run as Admin", "Compatibility Mode" and everything else in that rather unhelpful little article that the so-called tech support guys whipped up, probably between commercials while watching "American Idol" or something...
Yeah, I know, I'm starting to get a bit bitter over this. Can you blame me? I was grinding dilithium to convert to Zen I was saving to unlock the account bank so I could consolidate my Lobi; I go to bed, get up, patch the game, go to play and this mess starts...
I haven't gotten to play in two days and all I can think is "This is putting me behind schedule"...

I know Cryptic is busy counting all those crisp Andrew Jacksons and Lincolns from their latest P2W toy. However, can we get an update on the mission which was due in September. Coming up on 6 months since LoR and story content was last added to this game.

How exactly is the Avenger a P2W ship? I've been in groups with a few tonite and they blew up just the same as any ship with a bad captain or inferior equipment.
The Comm array abilities provide a nice boost to allies though.

And considering it's not reserved to the Avenger, but will be soon available to cruisers, it's even less p2win
Also, OP forget to mention, they are still probably waiting for the end of the free event we have, you know, something rewarding 50K dil/char that can be traded for zen. I don't know, for exemple to buy the new ship...
How many people are converting their free dil to zen right now, to buy the new "toy" or another ship ? A lot according to the ridiculous zen/dil current trade.
Any idea when the lead in episode is coming to prepare us for season 8? Will we find the gateway in this episode? Here's hoping for a good tease for season 8! Rumors?
We don't want what the Feds have. We want the equivalent. We want fairer treatment. Concern, desire, greed to some extent, and passionate belief that the enough people would buy KDF items to make it worth Cryptic's while.
Has it actually been confirmed anywhere that we actually get to keep this carrier for free rather than just fly it in the mission? There's a new carrier available in the Dyson Spire holding that might well be the same one and it seems a bit odd that Cryptic would put these up for sale and then immediately give them away for free. It would not be odd to give everyone a taster to make people want one though. The first hit is free.

We?ll keep the settings on stun and talk about the exclusive new alien ship that we are working on as a special reward for completing the new Feature Episode releasing in September.
This ancient, full-Carrier vessel uses subspace technology and was created by an alien race that may be related to the Iconians. As captains venture into the new feature episode, they?ll learn more about where this ship comes and get a chance to captain it in combat.
The Free one is probably the basic version with 9 Consoles ... while the other one is the Fleet Version ... they did it before with Odyssey, Ambassador etc

could be another variant though ... It's just a guess ...
Conveniently forgot the huge TRIBBLE gateway in the plaza when ya kill Hakeev already?
Not all gateways have to look like the picture.... They just have to function like it. and the blue/purple of that teaser literally scream gateway to me.

Yeah I'm surprised that people forget what shape the door frame was on the Iconian Gateway we say in the TV show.
The one on Iconia didn't actually have a frame at all.

Exactly.... and even in that It's more likely that the whole room there was the gateway in that episode.... these other ones are more modular "make it work, quickly!" models....

Yeah, the tech doesn't seem to need any sort of specific size or shape of hardware, and that is in CANON. The only thing Cryptic added was larger gate sizes. It makes sense for the Iconians to have the tech to make ship sized gates. They DID have an interstellar empire after all.
Also, no one said it was a "Voth Carrier". "Alien Carrier," yes :cool:

Perhaps it'll be a classic flying saucer like in the 1950's B-Movies. There shouldn't be any more IP claims to those anymore.

It was supposed to be September and we are now into the second half of October and early estimates given by the Devs was S8 would be released in November and the Winterr event shortly after.
Knowing them S8 will get pushed back until 2014.. :S I don't take their estimates seriously, I just look at the patch notes on Thursday to figure out what they did.
You're assessment is wrong, Season 8 is in testing right now on Tribble so they definitely aren't delaying Season 8.
But the new Featured Episode supposed to be the teaser for Season 8 and there been no official word on a release date, so all I can think of is that they made it part of Season 8 itself as one of the first storyline missions.
Though if a Dev or Branflakes was to respond to this thread, the typical answer would be - "Soon" TM

A Regent A2BFAWboat does just fine at either, even at CCE because you have WAQTs.
The only thing going for the Avenger is 5/3 for pve and faster turns in pvp.

Yes

My guess is it's gonna be this thing ... http://images-cdn.perfectworld.com/www/pictures/1381513903466.jpg , looks like an Obelisk to me and that's what the Carrier is called on Tribble ...
You people don't know an Iconian Gateway when you see one, do you?
Nope only know of these things ...
