Cryptic, Why do you STILL have a beat with the Galaxy?

Sorry Cryptic but closing the original thread will not stop this discussion. Faced it. you screwed up with the galaxy in this game. In cannon she is the second most powerful and the most versitile ship in fleet history yet in this game the Galaxy is only used by the daring or the Galaxy lovers who made a decent build on her. and the Three pack was a wasted opprotunity to fix the gamplay issues AND the graphic issues with the iconic ship. Heck the 3 pack only affected the Galaxy X.
You need to own up to this TRIBBLE up and fix it. I give an easy solution since your devs seem to be pretty lazy at times. The main issues with the Galaxy R and the fleet version is the Bridge Officer slots. It's too engineering dependent and hampers it's ability to perform. Thus why i suggest the universal Bo slot for all Bo slots. One it's easy to do and fixes the issue. Two gives the feds 2 ships like this while the KDF have an entire line of such ships. Do this and not only can people keep the decent build they have made but allows the ship to be more canon and be the versitile ship it was meant to be.

    There's exactly zero things wrong with the Galaxy*. What we should be doing is trying to make the XX/XXXXX/TRIBBLE console layout combined with the Lt/Ens/Ltc/Cmdr/Lt BOFF layout perform better.

    * Not the BOFF/console configurations at least.

    What's wrong with Engineering dependent cruisers? You don't want to be tanky?

    Its painfully clear you dont own one fly one or know anything about a Galaxy

    1 lt tac is the most boring layouts a ship can have

    does dramitically low dps

    quite frankly i believe your just trolling
    Jellico....Engineer ground.....Da'val Romulan space Sci
    Saphire.. Science ground......Ko'el Romulan space Tac
    Leva........Tactical ground.....Koj Romulan space Eng

    JJ-Verse will never be Canon or considered Lore...It will always be JJ-Verse

    fly one and you will understand. but the biggest issue is that there are only so many useful eng abilities.

    Strange how it's clear to someone who is not me. What's clear to me is that I fly a Galaxy, a Monarch, and a Venture.

    That's your opinion.

    Trolling or not, I'm ready to present reasons for my claims. Are you ready to present reasons for yours?

    The "real" problem is that low level engineering powers share too many cooldowns and are very limited in general. Unlike Science which has a wide variety of different powers, Engineering only has Emergency Power to x or Engeineering team.
    A ship having three Ensign Engineering stations almost can't use Emergency power to X II or III. So the range of Engineering powers are too limited and in too passive in nature.

    Additionally, only two tactical consoles are just not enough.

    All that wouldn't be so bad if it where a dedicated cryptic made ship, but to put the Galaxy Class into the healer/"tank without teeth" corner is just plainly wrong.
    I don't want to explain all the canon instances that proof my opinion here, please look at the dedicated Galaxy Class thread if you want to know more about this.

    Y'know, when a thread gets closed, there's usually a reason for it.

    Speaking as a Mod, I really get irritated when somebody opens a new thread that does the exact same thing that got the old thread closed.

    You don't get a pass on reopening a thread that's more about raking Cryptic over the coals than making suggestions and asking for changes. And you don't get to second-guess moderation decisions.

    Closed.
