Cannot include alien (Obelisk, Orb Weaver, Recluse, all that stuff) ships.

Note: I use the same sentence in my two other threads, I don't mean to spam, I just want to have one thread in one place and one thread in another.
I would love to visit this star in-game...or maybe this one!
Won't SOMEONE please think of the CHILDREN?!

    So far I hadn't bought any C store KDF ships. Since there isn't too many that got my attention. I have one on my mind, but I'm in no hurry to purchase it.

    Honestly.. I think all of the KDF purchases I've made have been worth the money.

    I still make use of most of the consoles on my various characters as well. The only ship that might have been a waste in hindsight would be the Phalanx - but even then, the barrier was still moderately useful (against charge up attacks and super-ship explosions) until I got the subspace jumper.

    The only KDF ship I have bought and parked with no intention of ever flying again was the Qin Mirror. C-store and fleet ships were all bought after extensive research.

    Same is true for the other factions. Mirror ships have been disappointing but cheap so I use them for parts storage and act like I did it on purpose.

    The Corsair Flight Deck Cruiser was worth it for the Tachyon Drones and we all know what happened to those.

    Non-Fleet version? I plan on getting the Fleet Corsair as soon as they put Fleet Modules on sale again.

    Back to topic. Happy with all my purchases and just got the Dacoit.

    The closes would be my Fed Vesta (not that there is anything wrong with it.) But I'm pretty much full time KDF(Started Fed). I pretty much treat my Fed like Cryptic treats KDF :)

    Looking forward to buying the new KDF ship next year!

    This.

    There aren't a lot of options for end-game KDF ships in the C-Store, so I bought the Vandal for its console and have been mulling over my options ever since. Mostly, I'd love to buy a 3-Pack with their near-Fleet quality... but the Bortasqu' doesn't fit my preferred play style; okay, that honestly just translates to "I like turning". The funny part is, the Cruiser Commands actually made ships like the Kar'Fi less desirable to me since they are actually slower than the old whales that can now rock Strategic Maneuvering.

    Anyway, I use the Event ships and spend my resources making them and the cheapo Mirror variants useful. I've never regretted getting one of those thanks to their negligible cost and the chance to try something new. There hasn't been an end-game C-Store ship released for the Klingon faction since I started playing, which doesn't really help, but maybe the upcoming ship will catch my eye if it isn't delayed too many more times. We'll see, since I'd prefer something of the same quality as the 3-Packs available on the Federation side.

    Have used and loved all my C-store purchases, spread across time and characters.

    Only ones I skipped are Bortasqu (moves like bus on flats) and Varanus (free fed lvl 40 sci ship reskin).

    Also got, used and loved the new T1 BoP, albeit briefly, though I love (parts of) the skin for my B'rel retro.

    Can't say I regret purchasing a Klingon ship but to say the truth I bought some of them just for the console.

    Same here.
    The only "ship" I ever purchased and later retired was the Vor'kang skin for my BG Vor'cha.
    I replaced it with the Fleet Kamarag, a ship more suited to my needs.
    But nontheless the skin served its purpose very well and there are still some of my ships that use the console to great effect.:cool:

    Overall Im happy with my purchases though I do wish some KDF ships with more thoughtfully designed or not cheap clones of existing fed ships and instead had layouts more fitting to the KDF race is was creatd for to use.

    Corsair Flight-Deck Cruiser:
    The tachyon drone scam got me. At least fix STO wiki so people wont be tricked into buying a ship for broken-useless hanger pets. Fleet Corsair Flight-Deck Cruiser still cost 4 fleet mods also. LOL. Double scammed.

    Orion Marauder:
    Cryptic gave these away for free for 1 full day. I used zen for mine :(

    Qaw'Dun Bird-of-Prey:
    I thought I was getting passive console, and I got scammed again. They fix console data a week after I use Zen on it.

    So much incorrect data and information I'm afraid to buy anymore ships... Good job Cryptic.
    The dress is gold and white. Over 70% people says so. When viewed from a certain screen angle it appears blue and black. The dress displayed on amazon is a blue and black dress, but it's not the same dress in the picture. If you're seeing blue & black you're slightly colored blind. A normal upright screen = white and gold.

    I liked a lot of my purchased ships....

    In fact the most sad thing for me was having to stop the usage of some because they underperformed.

    I really liked the look of my 4-wing Klingon ship or my weird looking ship that gave me the sub-space teleport

    I would have liked to have used those nacelle and body and wings on my higher level ships......but for some reason the developers didn't want to do that.

    So instead I simply have a bunch of ships that all look exactly alike with a broken interior ship view screen.

    Seriously...just how tough is it to change the variable on ship skin values to allow for the other types....I am thinking maybe 5 minutes of effort...but no....instead they simply give everything the exact same 2 skin types....the same ones I choose when I started as a Klingon to now as the highest rank.

    Guess the only way I can ever get more ship selections is to simply use 3rd party mods....so at least I can look at the different stuff on my end.

    Power without Perception is Spiritually useless and therefore of no true value.

    The 4 winged option is available on the Fleet Norgh so assuming you have access to a fleet you can still fly a ship with that look.

    And please don't use 3rd party mods or better yet don't even speak about using them on the forums, it's the kind of stuff that when used can get you banned.

    There is only one KDF c-store ship purchase I have ever regretted (not that there's many to pick from any ways) and wish I never wasted the money on:

    Bortasqu' 3 ship pack.

    Huge waste.

    I've bought all the KDF C-Store ships. Low tier, high tier, whatever. But there is one I regret and I wish I never bought:

    Bortasqu' 3 ship pack.

    Biggest waste, biggest disappointment.

    Bortasqu Tac cruiser.

    My KDF engie has the exact same skill setup as my Fed engie. Ship has the same Engie and Sci consoles as my Fed's Oddy. And the (a)Bort cruiser dies faster in every single engagement.

    Buying that ship felt to be an even greater waste of money than that time I bought 100 Lock Box keys and didn't get a single ship out of the 100 boxes I opened (that includes mirror ships).
    Time is a funny thing; There is always too much of it. Except when you need it the most, then there is never enough.

    Never cared for Tribble, but yeah, more research into opinions should've been done before I made that big buy. Hell, simply asking buddies and other KDF players would have done that job ;)

    There is no KDF ship I wish I didn't buy. Every single one of those I purchased has pulled their weight in any encounter and every single one of those is silly fun to play around with. Every T5 KDF ship I have bought is still used by at least one KDF character I have.

    Yes, the Bridge on the Bortasqu' is actually quite nice and fitting for a flagship.

    Non at all, now if you want me to list Federation and Romulan purchases I regret, well that list has substance.

    I impulse-purchased a Fleet K't'inga which is never going to get much use, since that toon already had a Tor'kaht and some other nice ships. Should have saved those modules or sold them. Oh well.

    People trying to turn this into another Bortasqu bashing thread :rolleyes:

    Only purchase I am not using much now is the Karfi due to drain being not as useful anymore with all the FAW spam and so much power sources, and until recently lack of a fleet upgrade.
