** SPOILERS!!**
The ships form the lockbox are from what i read was the nicor cruiser and the lobi being a Dromias Cruiser. These shouldn't be in the hands of player because its simply against canon, these are BIO SHIPS made in fluidic space made by the UNDINE, these ships should only be flown by the undine its just not right that we are capable of flying a vessel armed with weapons able to blown a planet to bits???
Personally i don't have any reason to hate the undine they're a great enemy but we shouldn't fly there ships, a compromise to this could be integrating bio tech to our ships ( which have a possibility due to the uni consoles also mentioned in the article) This shouldn't be a thing! this is like flying a borg cube around in sector space, its simply not appropriate.
All in all though this article could be as i said earlier complete lies which would make me slightly happy if the undine ships weren't a thing.
However the possible and very likely level increase intrigues mes very much.

At this stage, after everything the game has done that someone thinks is not canon, I honestly could not care less if it makes sense of not. Maybe I would have agreed 4 years ago but now I just want to have fun, not worry about every detail.
This is not a simulation of trek, it's meant to be a fun representation of it. Try to enjoy it, as it's coming whether you like it or not.
The game stopped being immersive for me after 1-2 month playing, so something that breaks immersion is not an issue for me anymore.
Exactly the point im trying to make, the need to slightly alter their design IF what this article is true

Yes, granted that may be the case but with these ships are engineered to ONLY be flown by a member of species 8472.
Thus why im kinda angry on their choice to possible implement it into the game.
^^ This. Can't wait to fly my own Nicor.
Don't tell me, now we're going to find out that the Ferengi nabbed the secret Undine recipe out from under Papa Undine's nose and are now growing Undine ships thus collapsing Papa Undine's monopoly. :P
Nah, it's far simpler: Cryptic just wants to make buckloads of money, and we just want to fly fun and exotic ships. Nothing more to it, really.

Why are you not rejoicing?
Talking of the Foundry... I can't find the mission in your sig. Love your stuff mate. :rolleyes:
I think Cryptic has their own canon going on right now. It's just a lock box canon with a Star Trek flair.

tin man needed someone to communicate with, it was telepathic and found tam elbran who was on the red line between sanity and insanity. had it not found someone to serve through its own despair, it would of killed itself. FYI it wasnt built for anyone however it did have internal space for lifeforms the same with Moya. she didnt need the pilot or any of the crew and could of just as easily opened up the hatches and let them into space. these bioships are different, they dont appear to have their own consciousness and they need direct input from a pilot, it makes sense as far as 8472 is concerned because they like to control what they have around them rather then having a ship or its computer telling the crew that it is not following these instructions or those instructions...
Been around since Dec 2010 on STO and bought LTS in Apr 2013 for STO.
If thats true, I hope they stick a decent colour pallette on it this time.

Why?
A few words:
Biggest Lore fail of STO I have ever seen since I joined the game nearly 3 years ago.
I hope STO get's better ...
In canon, there would be no way that the federation would let this amount of captains pilot those ships, yet we do....
This is a Star Trek THEMED space sim... Not a Star Trek MMO.
People should do as I do; I don't like all these alien designs, so I just don't use them. Cryptic would make more money from me if they released a better Galaxy or a revamped star cruiser, but alas, I'm not important enough. :P
I like to think of this game much alike some films. You get films that are based upon source material. This game, to me, is based upon Star Trek. I get that it's a game, and that writers need some creativity, but Cryptic/PWE/CBS have ruined Trek lore with their decisions here.
Borg ships would be worse... although at this point, it's just better to ignore what players are flying. It's not all to hard for me to focus on the story ahead, instead of all the strange alien ships.
What hurts more is how Cryptic dealt with the Voth. That story was just rushed... now the were already exterimanted by the Undine.
Man, I would have loved a big battle between the two, with us in the middle.
Not just a "Oh, this was the Voth zone. Undine killed them off. Have fun killing Undine.".
Indeed they did rush that arc quickly, however the fuss isnt about because people are flying alien ships, its about what the ship represents. if i could i would fly a bio ship infused with starfleet etc tech and make it somewhat believable and different than flying an iconic Voyager ship.
They might have said they're not doing it, but they say that a lot lately. Take everything the Devs say with a pinch of salt, that way, when an untruth turns around, you're not entirely gobsmacked.
