I really loved those old designs, including the Miriam class ships. we need these in sto to make the game feel fresh again, kinda like how they've done for ESD.

    yes a thousand times to the Tahoe.. everything else Is meh at best.. and a thousand no's to the Excalibur.

    if you look though, some of the designs are in game. the aquarious resembles a few, one of the sabre varients looks similier to the one in here..

    Why, are we running low on, and thus need to import more ugly TRIBBLE? The only ones of those that aren't butt-ugly are the ones that look like minor (extremely minor) variants of things we already have.

    We need none of these. In fact, we need specifically to not have any of these.

    Edison, Iowa and Sacagawea are already in game to some extent. The Edison being the Delta Flyer, Iowa being the Gladius and Sacagawea as the Aquarius escort. So is the Excalibur but as a derelict. Speaking of which, would like to see one of the Excalibur designs in game, not the one shown in that pic though and yes to the Tahoe.

    The "unkown" design in the second row will be super hyper awesome for a new purely science vessel. I saw it years ago in drex files and i was amazed (i have other images from it in my hd, in high resoultion from top - side - etc). It will be a BIG ship.

    Its the only design i will love to see in STO. The others.. well, not so much.

    I Believe if you delve deep enough online these ships are either from very early Beta STO or what was meant to be the Web game done buy Michael and Denise Okuda which never got off the drawing board.

    DISCLAIMER: The following may in fact blow your mind.

    I would actually very proudly take the command of this "Excaliber" type of ship and be very happy to have one. Don't ask, I may have the eye for the weird.

    I'll take anything that will cut down on the alien starships in orbit around Qo'nos and ESD.

    Not to knock on your comment, but I dont agree with that statement entirely. Such as my KDF tactical flies a Hirogen Hunter Escort and he very much fits the part.

    these are perpetual designs, the gaming company that was hired to originally make the game.. they went belly up, and we got stuck with cryptic..

    ^^^^^ this... its getting ridiculous the amount of non Starfleet ships I see at esd.. the heart of the federation and Starfleet is surrounded by enemy faction ships..

    Tahoe looks like a prototype for the basic Science model (http://sto.gamepedia.com/Science_Vessel_%28Federation%29)

    Iowa looks like a prototype for the basic Escort model (http://sto.gamepedia.com/Escort_%28Federation%29)

    Unknown at the far right of the 2nd row is one of the Defiant skins

    Edison and Sacagewa are in-game

    The ones that are left, dont really look right. Excalibur looks like it wants to mate with my leg--keep it away or I'll shoot it.

    You are not alone, I liked that design as well. Cryptic initially had it in game but the proportions and details were all wrong and it came out very ugly. Sorry to the guy who built the model, I don't mean to insult your work. :(

    For me though, I love the one right before it, the so called "Peace Sign" ship. It is one of the reasons I like the Avenger so much, it has similar lines.

    I don't see how rubbing TRIBBLE on something makes it fresh? :confused:

    Those are all designs made years and years ago anyways. I mean, the original ones are far better than that lol (the originals are from drex files), but what i mean is, if they are not in STO right now.. i dont think we will ever see em.

    And that crappy draw does not make the Excalibur justice.. seriously, wtf is that... lol.

    What I really need is more variants for the ships we have. I like to tinker around, and kitbash my preferred ship.

    Only the Federation vessels we have in the game since basically forever really let me play around as much as I like. On the KDF or the Romulans, the options are minimal, and let's not talk about those "lockbox" ships that have no exchangeable parts.

    And then there is the weird tailor bug I experience where I sometimes cannot even change anything, not pattern, not colours.

    People have mentioned the ones that are already in game, but if I'm not mistaken you can also recreate the "Phoenix" design fairly well by kitbashing the Heavy Escort Carrier skins. The Ramjet looks like it might be sort of possible too, with either the HEC or the Patrol Escort.

    not sure what you mean by that as humans don't make up the bulk of star fleet.
    Vulcan, benzite, ferengi, caitian, etc are all alien species.
