I simply have to wonder why they haven't unveiled the Tier 6 Typhoon and Jupiter yet. Why the heck do they have to design the new ships when there are wanted ships like these? Every ship that appears in missions should be available as a tier 5 ship at this point (minus the Connie because CBS, though with Tier 6 being added, Tier 5 is no longer necessarily end game..).
I kinda figured that they wouldn't be introduced at launch.......
Geko isn't really a fan of the Typhoon or Jupiter... That doesn't mean we won't get em' support is growing....
I'm sorry to people who I, in the past, insulted, annoyed, etc.
I came back to the game recently, after a long time away. I immediately went browsing the ship selection to see if the Typhoon was in the game somewhere. I didn't see it; so, I went online to see if there was some way to obtain it; to my surprise it was never added. I am still scratching my head why they would not implement an already decently designed vessel into the game; while shoving out horrible new designs that crush the immersion in the game so badly that you forget you are playing Star Trek.
Sure the Typhoon could use a some touch ups, to make it look a bit more finished; but, it already has a better design than most of the current end game ships for the federation.
Supported for both Typhoon and Jupiter (just as long as both are retextured, the current Typhoon looks an awful lot like the Majestic with the Stargazer's nacelles).

Again with this stuff come on. If you're gonna support something don't snowball it

I'd just like to also add my support for a playable tier 6 Typhoon (and, by extension, Jupiter).
I absolutely fell in love with the Typhoon the first time I saw it and have always wanted to fly one. Although I'm not a huge fan of the Jupiter, it would still be nice to see them being flown.
My hopeful expectation is that if they're not available at the launch of Delta Rising, that they will come in a second wave of tier 6 ships with new hybrid boffs, as Cryptic have indicated there will be others in addition to intelligence ones.
Since the Typhoon and Jupiter don't look the slightest bit stealthy, intelligence boffs don't seem to fit. What I'd expect and like is a 'support' hybrid boff seat. These would have powers similar to the career specific 'fleet' powers players get at level 50, in that they affect not only your own ship, but every ship on your team.
However they do them, I'd just love to see them released. Fingers crossed!
A long time ago, before fleet ships existed, Cryptic teased us by saying they were toying with the idea that some of the NPC ships like the Typhoon might finally become playable with the then-upcoming fleet ships. This never happened.
Also how sick would a Typhoon rocking the Type 6 material be? Hawt damn son! :cool:
Nitpicking is a time-honored tradition of science fiction. Asking your readers not to worry about the "little things" is like asking a dog not to sniff at people's crotches. If there's something that appears to violate natural laws, then you can expect someone's going to point it out. That's just the way things are.

It's the ship shown in my signature pic. It was the first (NPC-) Dreadnought of the Federation in STO (like the Typhoon was the first Battleship).
Been around since Dec 2010 on STO and bought LTS in Apr 2013 for STO.
I'm with you there, but... Typhoon first!
This is by far and away the ship I most want to see in DR. A T6 Typhoon would be an instant buy for me.
Jupiter would be cool too, but Typhoon is a must.

Resorting to this eh? That's gonna get you nowhere.

HERETIC!!!!!! Be gone with you!!!!!

If I am going to make a statement, I am going to be honest about it. I'm not here to entertain your interests.

Support the Typhoon and Jupiter class starships!
IMO it has more of a Galaxy feel to me... But it's nice though.

I was looking forward to be surprised and hoping we would have one on release instead we got a bug ridden update and no Typhoon.
