    After loving this ship, then seeing it Nerfed into complete uselessness, there are so many things that need to be fixed it is unlikely they will ever earn my respect for ANY changes they make to it.

    Anything that doesn't restore it to its original stats, massively lowers the lances miss chance, returns the cloaking device to a built in item and not a console, is just an insult to those of us who purchased the ship the day it came out 3 years ago.

    I'm on the edge of my seat and I hate the bloody Galaxy and Gal-X :D.

    JJ Trek The Kelvin Timeline is just Trek and it's fully canon... get over it. But I still prefer TAR.

    Well, they didn't bother keeping this one a surprise. Something related to the Galaxy Dreadnought is about to be announced, for sure.

    The normal galaxy retrofit is still garbage it seems and and the 3 engi slots were not changed on it

    Jesus, this ship just got a whole lot more desirable.

    The hangar is kind of wtfish, wish that would've gone to the galaxy or constellation, but this does indeed bring it up to par with the scim, or at least, as up to par as it should be. Though really, that should be the oddy's job.

    I also like that the saucer has cannons and a lance of its own. That's nifty.

    Logically, I dislike it, but as it's full of toys, I WANT IT

    Still needs a lance buff though.

    Eh... I wanna see the Fleet Galaxy-X first before I decide. I doubt that its the same as this ship if it's going to require a special dev blog next week.

    GIVE US THE ABILITY TO USE THE REGULAR GALAXY SKIN IN THE FLEET GALAXY X!!!!

    Sorry I've been keeping this to myself for 4 years...

    What I like about it is that they D'Deridex'd it: the Tier 4 and Tier 5 Galaxy has consoles that grant bonuses to it. Particularly in turns. Imagine that on the Dreadnought Cruiser: Separate, lay down the spread to confuse people, then WALLOP!

    Wouldn't work, PvPers would be upset that all the sudden this galaxy with no cannons on the saucer or lance sudden lanced them.

    pvpers? upset? about something trivial like a graphics effect that the other 99% of the playerbase wants?

    Sir, I think you may be in the wrong game's forums.

    Guys, excuse me. Just need to nip out and buy another box of Kleenex. :D
    If you've come to the forums to complain about the AFK system, it's known to be bugged at the moment.

    Looks like I was wrong about the cost of the Fleet Galaxy X and I'm happy about that ;)

    So.... no Lt. Cmdr. Tactical? :( Not even a Lt. Cmdr. Science? Who ever raised their hand and asked for a universal Ensign Seat?

    I mean, i'll take the Fleet Version for a Fleet Module, that's kinda okay, but... that's it? A useless Hangar, a meh Setbonus for two meh consoles and a NERF to the already weak Lance while seperated? Where are the two lacking Cruiser Commands? Where's the buffed Turn Rate? Where's the Lance Accuracy Fix?

    I would have been happy with at least a second Lt. Tactical... well at least some of it is free. I guess. I didn't expect a lot and i'm still disappointed.

    I thought 87.526837% of the player base didn't like the Galaxy class in general? (See I can make up numbers too!)

    Really isn't a trivial when it makes it look like a different ship...

    It would be cool if in the ESD Shipyard tehy swapped the places of the Avenger and the Galaxy that's in there and made the Galaxy the Galaxy Dreadnaught

    1) There actually is a dev quote floating around somewhere about eliminating pvp not even costing sto 1% of its playerbase or something like that. Someone's using it as their sig.

    2) Holo emitters, cloaks, and disable-able set visuals all already exist and perform in a similar capacity, none of which are much of a problem.

    Thanks for playing.

    Well guys, I'm so pleased I started this thread, seems for once I called something right. However we need to see ship stats to be sure, so many questions, especially regarding the power, CD and ACC of the Lance, Also what's this Galaxy bridge? Is that the Justice pack we already have or are they releasing a proper Galaxy bridge?

    Very exciting news and going to thank the team for listening to us, but saying that with a note of caution until full details are disclosed.

    maybe they doing the galaxy x bride if i do recall right it was slightly different from the original

    All the pictures are taken at Utopia Planitia. I wonder if this is a hint or just for aesthetics?

    I mean, The Enterprise-D was built at Utopia Planitia

    Isn't there a Galaxy bridge pack? I think that's what they're referrring to. I could be wrong.
    Where are the two lacking Cruiser Commands?

    On the actual Galaxy Cruiser, where they belong.
    Where's the buffed Turn Rate? Where's the Lance Accuracy Fix?

    On the new set bonus. Turn rate improved by 1. That's pretty huge. Combine that with the changes made to RCS consoles and the Dread when rocking its set bonus should be quite agile, for a big honking dreadnaught.

    So...just because 99% of people don't pvp doesn't mean 99% of people are for this change like they claimed.

    Except Holo Emitters are the only thing that actually makes a noticeable change. How often to people even use those in pvp? Heck I don't even see them in the 99% played pve.

    I'm not convinced a Galaxy without a third nacelle firing a lance is really an issue.

    I mean if a Galaxy without a third nacelle DECLOAKED off your port, there's a pretty good chance even if you can't see the lance, you know it's there right?

    Perhaps maybe they confused it with the Galaxy? People would ask if nothing else that the Galaxy Retrofit get a Uni Ensign.

    What is there to be disappointed about, got some nice additions and if you didn't like it before than you can just go on like nothing happened.
