ive been since DR came out, almost 2 months ago, and the fleet versions of the t6 ships have yet to come out! i REALLY want to ditch my Phantom Escort for a stronger flete version sometime soon!
Anyone have an idea of when they may finaly come?
What if I said, I actually liked Delta Rising
These are the voyages of The U.S.S. Shadow Serpent, its ongoing mission, to enlist more misfits to its crazy crew, and to boldly destroy what has never been destroyed before
I wouldn't imagine Fleet Ships are going to happen for a while yet. I would imagine that Cryptic will want to get many more T6 C-Store ships out first before they concern themselves with T6 Fleet Ships. I would expect (excluding Lobi/Lock Box) that the existing T6 ships are going to need to be twice as many before we see any in T6 form.
This does pose an interesting question for T6 Lock Box and Event Ships though (like the new Carrier). It is my understanding (rightly or wrongly) that T5 Lock Box, Lobi and Event Ships were at the same level of a T5 Fleet Ship.
At the moment, T6 Fleet Ships don't exist, and T6 Lock Box/Lobi and Event Ships match the T6 Ships seen in the C-Store, so either these ships are going to need an upgrade of their own, or (more unlikely) there are no current plans for T6 Fleet Ships.

The T6 lockbox/lobi/event ships have 11 consoles, while the other T6 ships have 10. It is therefore more reasonable to assume that they're already meant to be on par with T6-fleet.

Oh do they? Well I look a bit stupid now. I don't own a Lock Box/Lobi Ship - though I am working toward the Breen Carrier. Guess I'd have found that out eventually.
That being the case though, it's probably more likely that they want to get a few more T6 ships released in the C-Store before they do their Fleet counterparts. If the current system is anything to go by, then most (if not all) Fleet T6 Ships should get an additional skin; I've no doubt that's something that is likely taking time.

Oh wow...a whole month or two waiting for T6 ships...poor baby...try waiting a year for it...or years when it comes to ships like the Guramba and D'Kyr which still aren't fleet.
Been waiting almost a year for secondary deflectors...I think you can handle waiting a little longer for your 11th console.
Can't have a honest conversation because of a white knight with power
And i suspect that the next season will be out in early 2015, probably around anniversary time (February) as that was how it worked last year I believe. New feature episode, anniversary ship, new content and possibly new fleet holding to tie into the Delta Quadrant.
I'd guess a Fleet T6 would need a new higher level starbase or holding and the next season seems like the logical time to add such a thing.
Some form of DQ trading post seems a logical thing to add in, it would tie in to the Talaxian's new homeworld/asteroid base rather nicely as that never get's touched on again after the first few missions.
Once they have finished milking everyone for the T5U upgrades will start seeing T6 Fleet ships and T6 ships that we already have - like the new pathfinder.
I know you've already paid for this ship and the fleet module and the T5U upgrade, but here's the T6 version now. :P
They will probably release T6 versions of the T5 Lobi/lockbox ships first. . And next years winter event ship will either be the last missing ship, the Dreadnought or a Breen Chel Grett T6. But you will still neet 100 pics of Q even if you own the T5U Chell Grett. No discounts
But i still think that they should release fleet ships together with the normal c-store ships. i will probably get the c-store ship first anyway and if i like it spend money for the fleet version too.
And if there are 2 ships i like, i will buy both. But if they release all c-store ships and then the fleet ships way later then i might pick my favourite and just buy one. So release together = more money from me

Never thought of that. I figured they'd just add it to the T5 shipyard. But now that you mention it, it'd be pretty cool to have a Delta fleet holding.
And I like the idea of a Talaxian tie-in. That'd be very, very nice.

Either that or tier 6 ships will require TWO fleet ship modules.
