I really wonder that they missed that one out...

I remember them talking about it and that they plan to add it when the story advanced that far that Voyager and all the stuff moves into focus.

Isnt that the case now?

Would have been good promotion to see Tuvok on the original Bridge and offer it in the C-Store afterwards.

I am really wondering why they missed it out this time. We got TOS Interiours / Bundle when the Devidian Arc progressed to the 22nd Century part.

We got Defiant Interiours / Bundle when the Feature Series developed around DS9 and the return of the Jem'Hadar Fleet.

Now the story develops around Tuvok and Voyager and no proper Bundle is on sight. Are there still plans for it or did it just got abandoned?

    Maybe there's going to be a proper feature episode series and they'll release the bundle with that.

    The environment team did just spend a hell of a lot of man hours on ESD.

    The season just hit, give it some time to see if they introduce any bundles(a week or two) that go with it

    Give it time. Hopefully it comes with an interesting 2-piece bonus.
    This program, though reasonably normal at times, seems to have a strong affinity to classes belonging to the Cat 2.0 program. Questerius 2.7 will break down on occasion, resulting in garbage and nonsense messages whenever it occurs. Usually a hard reboot or pulling the plug solves the problem when that happens.

    Maybe it will come with a new grind for season 9.5. Locking up the Warship Voyager behind 10 levels of reputation grind or something like that. :P

    Cryptic, don't listen to this slightly confused man. He doesn't know what he is talking about. :P

    If they are to do a Voyager bundle I would want it done right and with the proper interior for the ship. If its just ships bundled with the crappy versions of the bridge we have now I will have to say pass.

    Given the extensive detail that was given to ESD I would want that same hand to do the interior for Voyager. Its the one interior I have wanted since open beta.

    *Waves money at Cryptic* Build it and bundle it and I will buy it.

    Thats what I am looking for too. I have the TOS and DS9 Bundle and I love how they have done the interiours. Lets hope they do it right if they do it at all.

    I do too and I use the Belfast interior almost completely with exception to some origin bridges on cruisers.

    Given that the Undine are the new big enemy I am hoping we will finally get our wish.

    I don't know if they ever confirmed that a bundle was in the works.

    Couple that with the fact that full ship interiors are all-but-officially a dead end, I'm not optimistic.

    It seems like if they were ever going to do a "proper" Voyager bridge, it would have been for this FE.
    You're right. The work here is very important.

    While there is a good bit of truth to it, people have been calling for an Intrepid revamp and they still do unique bridges for the lock box ships so this is not entirely out of the question.

    The only thing I can do is what I have been doing is let them know what I want and keep getting in their face until they finally do it coupled with if they release the bundle without that feature I will then vote with my wallet by not purchasing it.

    This was being discussed over in the "Dont Buy T5 Intrepid" thread:
    http://sto-forum.perfectworld.com/showthread.php?t=1063731&page=9


    I'm more disappointed that a new Intrepid-class ship pack wasn't released with Season 9. I would have liked new interiors, plus some new variations (e.g. some new devices; the addition of a hangar bay for a Delta Flyer; keeping the ship as a SCI vessel; maybe the inclusion of a special Holographic SCI BOff or DOff, depending on purchasing one ship or a pack of ships.

    (I realize those suggestions aren't popular ones. But Cryptic is probably restricted to what they can do to the Intrepid-class (U.S.S. Voyager), due to the TV show/licensing agreement with CBS.)

    Maybe we'll see an Intrepid-class C-Store offer during a future update (August 2014?) with the return of VOY's Harry Kim (as mentioned in actor Garrett Wang's Twitter feed: https://twitter.com/garrettrwang/sta...00243158605824 ) If I were Cryptic, that's when I'd release it. After all, we're due for another Tim Russ/Tuvok appearance, too. (Based on Tuvok's dialogue from "Surface Tension" - the Season 9 Featured Episode.)

    Now that we seem to be heading into the Delta Quadrant, I think we will be seeing a Voyager Bundle soon™.

    I'd add: While the Intrepid-class is should remain a SCI class vessel, it would be interesting to see the Yeager-class make an appearance as a TAC light cruiser/escort vessel.

    It is a canon starship. :)

    Wasn't that the Intrepid bridge behind Tuvok in Surface Tension? I thought I saw the bridge railing that looked VERY much like Voyager...

    If they do a Voyager bundle, I would hope that it would include a Promoethus interior as well as the actua bridge also. I would also like an EMH Mark I and EMH Mark II BO's or DOff's. Oh, and the emote, "ROMULANS!". :D

    Yeah that kept my hopes up too... but then its just a static background image.

    Cryptic we love canon interiours. Make it so :D

    This was my suggestion, from the thread mentioned earlier ... It's probably got some flaws and wholes, but it's a start ...

    I admit I really, REALLY, wanted to fly Voyager in STO Even went as far as buying the C-Store Retrofit <sigh> ... Sadly it just doesn't 'cut it' in today's game, and there are better alternatives for a Sci Ship :confused:

    I'd be happy with just a Voyager Skin to put on my RSV or maybe even for the Vesta ...

    I would like to see the Yeager-Intrepid variant added as a T4 ship. I like escorts, but I am not that big a fan of the Defiant anymore. I have more ideas as to the ship if there is more interest in that discussion.

    Fixed it for you :D

    I agree that a Voyager bridge would have been great, correct me if I'm wrong, but they used an Akira bridge, (you saw an an Akira status display). I was a little disappointed when I saw it myself.

    This is but one example of the half measures that get taken, because it's not on the budget to have someone actually make the appropriate bridge AND pay someone to do the mission too.

    They are working on Expansion 2 right now which is heavily focused on the Delta Quadrant and also finishing up the last of the canon ships. Which I am sure includes a revamped Intrepid Class. There will be many ships coming out this year, if the Podcasts and interviews with the devs are to be believed.

    Not trolling here but I'm curious...why do you/we keep falling into the same trap (i.e. requesting stuff we've seen a dozen times in the movies, tv, and cartoons).

    The talent I've seen in Foundry and by Cryptic Artists indicate that we could be seeing whole NEW parts of the ship. Parts that set costs and space restrictions in real life prevented the TV/Movie execs from producing.

    Starfleet vessels are basically naval ships.

    Why not see things like weapons storage areas, waste extraction, crew quarters, or for that matter, answer the ageless question...where are the bathrooms in Star Trek?

    That would be a cool foundry challenge. Create a starship.

    What would you want to see? Officer's Lounge? Rec Deck? :)

    I certainly see something like this coming about with the Interior Editor.

    A Voyager bundle also needs to come with a ground weapon of some sort. Most likely the Fork rifle seen in Voyager as a High Density Beam rifle or something.
    Also... at least one costume unlock of some sort. Can't get the DS9/Voyager uniforms because they're already in game. Maybe the TNG series Dress Uniform since they still had those on Voyager. And maybe throw in the Type 9 shuttle.

    But an actual, proper Voyager interior with NPCs in proper DS9/Voyager uniforms would be the major selling point.
