We'll be getting some new ships soon. I love the look of the Rommie one but I won't buy them. Too much grind, to little value in return. Plus an ill fated decision regarding Klingons. I won't be Cryptics cash cow to milk.
p.s. sorry about the sig Taco. I hope you can see it criticizes a management decision and not your work as a developer. Plus it's clear stated and constructive

3000zen for what is essentially a ship trait just isn't worth it.
Here's hoping some day we can use any specialization on any ship (Fleet T6 Universal slots maybe?)
I'm still on the fence regarding the Fed Command ships though. Never liked the Oberth hull setup, just like I didn't like it on the Fuzzyprise. I could live with it if the tail end can be cut off with alternate hull options.
Somebody bought zen for that dil........ that's all they care about. I also won't be getting the ships with dil.
Why are you only playing one faction? Seems perverse.
and all I care about is keeping my money until there is something worth spending it on, so everyone's a winner.
As it is a spec will have to wow me to get me to invest points in it if my reserve isn't maxed. If you aren't grinding Argala the levels don't flow in all that fast and I'd hate to waste all those hours on a spec/ship I don't like.
Anyway, if you still want DPS or mega debuffing, Intel ships is still the only line.
Now if you want to tank and support, Command ships is what looks to be the new thing.
We just need either a Vanguard DPS/Tanking or a Mad Scientist Sci AoE/Tanking Primary Specialization.
No, its just speaking with your wallet, saying "I want something other than power creep, flavor-of-the-month, and grind."
Spending 3000zen or 100+mil EC for current ship traits is not worth it.
They will release better ship traits latter.
New ships are always better otherwise they would not sell.
I'm happy with the T5-U Scimitar I already captain.
Sadly, 3,000 people can take this stance and cryptic will loose $2,000. But as soon as one whale comes along and spend $5,000 on lockbox ships+zen ships+zen items, the stance the 3,000 people took will be pointless.
This game caters to whales and those that love to grind. After a while I can't blame CBS anymore for what goes on, I can't blame the Perfect World overlords anymore and I can't even blame Cryptic anymore. It's so mucked up that I don't know who to blame, because everyone seems to have an equal part in this disaster.
Buy the shinny new ship
upgrade the equipment for millions in resources
And then make 4x the dilithiun reward on dyson ground with mk12 free rep gear
make 4x the xp with mk12 rep gear at argula
Why do we need the new ships ? or command specialization for that matter
To do a advanced space stf with a 720 dilithium reward faster ?
Absurd
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
I don't really like being this person, but this phrase you keep throwing around (here and in the title of your other thread) is the wrong one. Unless you have a time machine, or some other way to see the actual ramifications of the decision, you cannot know that it is ill-fated. I believe the term that you're grasping for is ill-advised.
Example: France's decision to rely n the Maginot Line as their primary means of defense against German aggression between the World Wars proved to be ill-fated in retrospect when the Germans simply went around it.
At the rate we're going, my main will be able to train Command boffs in...about eight million years. Ergo, I can't see the point in buying these. Nice as they are, they're just not necessary.
Also, too much focus on Eng/Tac. Needs moar Science. T6 Luna anyone?
Enterprise X
Enterprise J
Enterprise H
temporal incursion
Phoenix class
Vengeance class
among others...running out of creative steam in an MMO that tries to make money is not very smart...just IMO.
Because last time they did that for the Oddy it was restricted to the US only and the brown stuff hit the fan when the Oddy won, let alone before the final result. I don't think they would do that again.
If/when I do get around to buy one. The Fed or Romulan will be on my list. I hate the KDF look on these.

For around 300k on the exchange, you can buy a Specialization token under the Intel tab to traind any Boff into Intel (they all come with the same basic Intel set). Then you just search for and pay for the Rank III abilities you want/need.
Command also already has some Rank III skills and the Specialization token available on the exchange as well. Those were going for 400k or so for the Command Spec and more than that for Rank III skills.
It's really just a matter of how badly you need those Rank III skills and the Specialization PADD. The Specialization tokens are Ultra Rare in color and rarity, if you need help searching them up.
