Change the design of the Typhoon? you must be joking It's one of the best Federation designs that Cryptic has produced, changing it would be blasphemy.
I assume he meant revamping the model like they did with the Scimitar for LoR. (see here)
"Critics who say that the optimistic utopia Star Trek depicted is now outmoded forget the cultural context that gave birth to it: Star Trek was not a manifestation of optimism when optimism was easy. Star Trek declared a hope for a future that nobody stuck in the present could believe in. For all our struggles today, we haven’t outgrown the need for stories like Star Trek. We need tales of optimism, of heroes, of courage and goodness now as much as we’ve ever needed them." -Thomas Marrone
From me, induperator and other supporters it's perfect the way it is.
But I know opinions are like..... you know..... live long and prosper.... man! :P
The model is pretty low quality compared to some of the other ships. Even if they don't change the actual design, they should improve the texturing.

I would get behind that, especially if they took some elements from the Avenger for it in terms of hard-points, texturing, maybe the hull material etc.
Norway and Yeager dammit... I still want my Typhoon and Jupiter though. JJ Trek The Kelvin Timeline is just Trek and it's fully canon... get over it. But I still prefer TAR.

I, I had a dream that the Typhoon and Jupiter were playable from some new fleet holding...... it was ssssssoooo beautiful.... Just..... GODDANGIT CRYPTIC!!!!!! :mad::(:mad:
Just joking.
I'm sorry to people who I, in the past, insulted, annoyed, etc.

Design is decent, but the model is low quality. That needs to be improved. It's not a matter of simply taking an NPC ship and giving it to players.
Both the Jupiter and the Typhoon could use their textures reworked (especially the Jupiter) but I'd leave the designs the way they are and make a alternative design for the fleet version like I said in my concepts...

To be honest at this point I don't mind about the Textures or the Models of the Typhoon I just want the ship to be released.
The only problem I see with the model is that the front of the saucer section is rigid and not very well rounded https://fbcdn-sphotos-e-a.akamaihd.net/hphotos-ak-ash3/t31.0-8/1941432_275745455927694_164557634_o.jpg as you can see in this picture.
For all I care Cryptic can release those ships as they are I just want to fly them :rolleyes:

I did not read the entire thread, so I'm gonna point it out here.
Creation of petitions is not allowed in the Forum Rules. And since the OP asks us not to post if we don't support these ships, it is a petition.
As such, I feel that if anybody has the right to also express a NO feeling in this matter.
Still, for the Typhoon definitely, and for the Jupiter as well (I hate the Jupiter design, but if there are players who would love to fly this ships, who am I to deny them this?

I am in full support of granting Fleet Wide use of the Typhoon Class Starship.
Additionally the U.S.S Galaxy is performing slightly better after her refit at utopia planitia. However the Phaser Lance is not performing within starfleet specs and has proven to be not powerful enough against the KDF's I.K.S Bortas. This is a matter of urgency and once we have completed our patrol of sector 23 we be returning to Earth Spacedock to have the ship's Phaser Lance's power looked at. Additionally we will be requesting a Commander Tactical Slot to replace our ensign universal due to the lack of powerful enough command options.
Still there are few fully operational ships in the fleet that match the capabilities of the U.S.S Galaxy and Starfleet needs a larger number of active powerfull ships with the large hulls in order to deal with the ever increasing conflicts with the enemies of the Federation.
Our existing fleet stock is in need of a full refit to bring them up to standard.
The deployment of the Typhoon Class will send a clear message that Starfleet can and will protect the Federation from harm and in doing so enhance our offensive capabilities.

However; if they did do this; they would need to add a klingon ship at the same time. Would seem only fair to give those klingons another ship.
The Jupiter; sorry I cant get over the ugly looks of that thing. I understand the people who like that look; but i cant like the look myself.
My opinion of course.
Yes they would.
This?
