Captains! You’re about to explore an area of space that is only partially charted, and full of a few friends, a lot of foes, and even more unknowns in Delta Rising! We're excited to announce the Delta Rising: Operations Pack. The Operations Pack will ensure you’re fully prepared for your journey through the Delta Quadrant by giving you access to the most cutting-edge technology, personnel, and ships in the fleet.

More about it can be found here.

    Like special weapons from other Star Trek games? Wondering if they can be replicated in STO even a little bit? Check this out: https://forum.arcgames.com/startrekonline/discussion/1262277/a-mostly-comprehensive-guide-to-star-trek-videogame-special-weapons-and-their-sto-equivalents

    A normie goes "Oh, what's this?"
    An otaku goes "UwU, what's this?"
    A furry goes "OwO, what's this?"
    A werewolf goes "Awoo, what's this?"

    I gain power by understanding both.
    In the chaos of their battle, I bring order.

    Very interesting...
    You're right. The work here is very important.

    Like the ships and the one Scryer Intel Science Vessel, but with these ships can you post a graphic view of the weapons, deflector, impulse, warp, shields, aft weapons, devices. engineering consoles, science consoles, tactical consoles or just label them 1, 2, 3, 4 in the boxes. But a graphical blueprint view. This way you know what your getting prior to purchase. A video for each Tier 6 ship performance wise or in a battle would be neat also. If your going to sell ships best to show what they can do also. Thanks for the new creative team on the Tier 6 ship visuals.. ;)

    I'll be honest here: none of the ships listed are catching my attention. I'd more than likely be satisfied with snagging at least a token and continue running-around in my Heavy Escort Carrier.

    Other than the MaHa, I'm not interested. I passed on the Legacy pack with no regrets and I'm positive I won't feel like I am needing this stuff either.

    The Scryer Intel Science Vessel console sounds like fun against the KDF.

    The Eclipse Intel Cruiser+Solanae set hull leech. ROFL.

    Good to see the Romulan ship got its wings fixed. Pretty much all of the other ships look dumb though.

    The FAQ mentions the Dauntless class but there doesn't seem to be any info about it at all?

    Any chance of having faction specific packs instead of the whole bundle, as is?
    I'd like to purchase the KDF Pack on it's own.

    Can we buy this pack at GameStop or something, or do we have to buy it online?

    Otherwise, looks good. Hate the Talaxian uniforms, but then again I hate Neelix and everything to do with him with an undying passion.

    KDF gets a battlecloaking battlecruiser, and it looks smoking hot, too. Feds get 4 ships, but they're butt-ugly. Heh, Feds finally get hosed on something.

    KDF gets new Raptor. It's smoking hot. Rommies get 2 new warbirds. Not bad at all.

    I was impressed until I saw... $124.99.... which made me in awe... In how much the game has been monetized. I suppose this should be considered fair for the number of ships being provided in one pack and the extra benies in upgrade tokens and purple Doffs, but the first look still stings the wallet. :eek:

    If I can, I'm going to get this and the Rommie pack through Steam or GameStop or something like that. Should be fun.

    and this is just the first announcement

    they may still add stuff to the pack like the did for the LoR bundle without touching the price

    With the Particle Conversion Matrix, the Guardian Cruiser also gains a modest amount of bonus energy weapon damage each time it is struck by enemy fire.

    Please for heavens sake tell me they're going to fix aux2bat with expansion 2.

    The KDF ships and the Fed escort, just wow. Vapers' wet dream.

    I have to agree ... they don't look very good and they also don't seem very Trek! Somehow none of them on first look feel like any evolution of the ships that I've come to expect or "love" from the shows and movies.

    Damn it. Three more Fed ships with Cloaking Devices and chances are that I will be owning them. Although I guess a ship with Intelligence Bridge Officer has to have a cloaking device.

    They better have "wonderful" stats. ;)
    The FED ship really needs them, it surely doesn't shine with it's appearance. lol.

    You know the worst part for Romulans and KDF. The Fed get to unlock 4 ship traits, and the Romulans and KDF 2 each.

    What the Hell, Cryptic? Have PWE whipped you so bad that you have to do this to us?

    For two KDF ships (or Romulan) we gotta fork out $125? No "Faction Specific" sets?

    And people with the scam-box bugship get a free ride to T6?

    Seriously, have you people lost your freaking minds?

    WTF???? :mad::mad::mad:

    Love it... going to be snatching this pack right up. Can't wait for more details... if the costs for other items were available we could fully appreciate the value of the bundle. I know the ships alone are worth the money in terms of pricing under the old T5 bundle pricing.

    Per Geko, traits will be obtainable in other ways. You know the lockbox traits will likely be better than any of the ship traits.

    God, those ships look mostly hideous...
    The Romulan ones look nice, (when do they not?) , I wouldn't be caught dead in any of those other ships..

    I can only hope Cryptic decides to let us upgrade ships that are more aesthetically pleasing to Tier 6...

    I can dream, right?
