Is funny a few posts from devs about how it costs too much to do these interiors and then give away lol. It makes me wonder if they thought about making some kind of functionality for bridges other than something an RP'r would use them for lol. Most likely this giveaway is for saying okay go ahead and have them since we won't be making any more of them lol.
How dare you give me something I already own....DON'T YOU KNOW IT'S ALL ABOUT ME...the others are just extras in my world....you should know what I already own, and change your plans to suit my needs:rolleyes::D:)
defiant bridge pack is such a let down and should be renamed. it isn't worthy of the name defiant. awful bridges. surprised they wasn't made free a very long time ago :P
on the other side of the coin however I do like the Klingon bridges and they feel more like a Klingon bridge should. i'll make good use of them at some point. so thank you
We are excited to announce that today's FREE C-Store items are the Defiant Bridge Pack and Bird of Prey Bridge Pack! Read more for full details, including claiming instructions.
Sigh...had purchased both of these a while back...oh, well...thanks anyay...
There is about as much water on Earth now as there was three billion years ago. But while the amount of water has remained static, the amount of tequila and Triple Sec available for the making of Margaritas has expanded enormously. So you see, we have made progress after all. ~Anonymous

I was thinking about the defiant bridge pack, and I can see good uses for it. Tier 1-3 ships on the Fed side that aren't Cruisers can be pretty small, so a visibly small bridge fits those Escorts and Science ships.
On that note, those early tiny ships can be fun! Now that we have a Khan costume I'd really like to see a T4 or T5 refit (or even a ship costume) for those TOS ships so that we fly around all old-school.
OOH, and I just got my fleet defiant a few weeks ago a was thinking about the bridge, so sweet for me! Hurry for my side!
Thanks much STO Team! :cool:
hip63 :P
This bridge pack isn't the bridge you think it is. The bridge you are looking for, that is more canon to the Defiant, is the Belfast bridge and interior.
This bridge pack is a poor imitation of the original.

You do know that there's only one bridge for the Romulans, yes? That's your bridge pack there.
That's bull. All playable faction should have at least some bridge options. If Cryptic was serious about Romulan gameplay. They should have released 2/3 bridge options the start of Season 8.
If they didn't make Romulan a solo faction and/or starbase fleet system, then they should have added a few more options
Well that puts me at 2/3 success from the giveaway so far. The Defiant bridges will be a wellcomed adition, but as someone who plays KDF a lot I had to have the Bird of Prey bridges ages ago.
Hopefully this will get people into trying the BoPs and experience how immensly fun they are to command. I mean you have the coolest looking BoP, the Hegh'ta, availible for free while you level!

You do realize, they are giving away this stuff because they don't sell very well (any more), right?
There is no more money to be made from them, except indirectly by doing publicity promos like these.
Still appreciated of course, but paid for both of them year ago.
Thanks, Cryptic folks! Being that I am not overwhelmed with a sense of entitlement and actually appreciate when I manage to get something for free, I feel appreciation for this lovely gift! So, thank you!
I like free stuff, and more options for bridges are great. That being said, why has nobody fixed the generic bridge officer bug? Before LoR, we could see as many of our boffs as the bridge would allow. Now, I have, at best, 2 of my boffs, and the rest of the bridge is populated by "Science Officer", "Engineering Officer", etc. It's kind of a waste to have a nice looking bridge, but hardly any of your crew on it.
I say again, I like free stuff. Thank you.
Already had the Defiant pack, but I happen to be in the process of leveling a Klink toon, and there's an option in that BOP pack where it's less dark and easier to see everything.

well I expect they made money from the Belfast bridge. which is what the defiant bridge should have been all along.
they must have done well out of the tos bridge pack as well.
so I would expect proper voyager, ent- d and ent-e interiors to sell well. they are pretty much the only ones worth putting time in to making to get any kind of return. what they made in the past isn't exactly good. hence why they never sold well.

I guess you were expecting a legacy pack, yes? The world can be so cruel....
This is AWESOME! I've always wanted some more bridge options, but there is only so much Zen and I never could spare any for this.
Thanks!
well duh... they don't love us romulan's even tho it's still season 7-8
we romulans are being OPPRESSED i demand compensation :rolleyes:
Yeah shows how much of content drought there is that giveaways pretty much are things we already own lol.

Anyway, they are only in it for the money.
hate to tell you they forgot about that while making them into a fRaction

Still, it's a nice freebie for my Fed/Kdf captains.
Thank you very much, Cryptic, and here's to the Anniversary!
I say again, I like free stuff. Thank you.
Thanks, guys!
