Mirror Incursion Lockbox

in Galactic News Network [PC]
Tholians have been present at nearly every incident of temporal shifting or dimensional instability, with rifts to the Mirror Universe never far behind.

Now announcing the Mirror Incursion Lockbox, complete with Tholian pets.

    What a shame, you're locking off those uniforms as character bound items, in the horrible Lobi store....

    If they were account unlocks, they might've been worth it.

    Does anyone else think this is getting out of hand? The ships in these lockboxes are just getting bigger and sillier. And alongside that the plot is now turning up in lockboxes.

    Yeah, I'm not shelling out 800 Lobi for a one-character purchase. Not a starship, and certainly not a uniform option.

    "Critics who say that the optimistic utopia Star Trek depicted is now outmoded forget the cultural context that gave birth to it: Star Trek was not a manifestation of optimism when optimism was easy. Star Trek declared a hope for a future that nobody stuck in the present could believe in. For all our struggles today, we haven’t outgrown the need for stories like Star Trek. We need tales of optimism, of heroes, of courage and goodness now as much as we’ve ever needed them."

    Nope, while I like the idea of the ships, I am more interested in the outfits.

    I wonder if the Temporal Dreadnought synergizes with the temporal ships we already have in the game or with the Tholian Tarantula instead (console wise).

    The Devtracker cut that sentence off at "sh", and I was so hoping the word would be "shenanigans".

    If they added goaties for mirror Romulans, I'd be too. ;)​​

    Awfully disappointed by a lockbox that i waited for a long time.
    First the Tholians here are irrelevant: They have already a tholian box and most of all, are not related specifically to the mirror universe. Also it's called "mirror lockbox" but without any mirror universe ship in it! If it's a joke, it don't make me laugh.

    So the only true mirror ship, the Paradox, is in the lobi? What a shame, it's not even account unlock.
    The uniforms? Same here so close to no chance to see them in the market.

    Really was it too hard to just have some imaginations?
  • orion0029orion0029 Member Posts: 1,122 Bug Hunter
    Did I miss something or did those uniform options not mention where they could be purchased from?

    (The logical assumption is the Lobi Store, I know. I just find it kinda odd that that specific little detail was omitted lol.)

    not even for the second prize.
    New mirror ships would have been excellent, like the mirror guardian

    I am hoping they are a C-Store purchase. Everything in the Lobi Store clearly states it will be in the Lobi Store. If they are a C-Store purchase, I will definitely buy them. If not, I can live without them.

    The temporal ship has my interest. Hope it's heavy science based.
    Well excuse me for having enormous flaws that I don't work on.

    I was hoping to see those Mirror uniforms becoming available at some point.

    *beat*

    Through the lobi store... not so much ^^

    I'll sit on my lobi and keep collecting, thank you :smile:

    So the Escort is the Blue, no-trait consolation prize?

    I'm concerned that this lockbox is all copypasta and recycling of old assets and the one new ship is stuck behind the crappy Lobi wall.

    Is the Paradox a Science Dreadnought provided it comes with a Science focused starship trait? Really need to know!!

    Also wondering the same things. Look forward to more info and more pics.

    Really liking this box otherwise, and the Science focus.

    This lockbox seems...lazy. EVERYTHING is already in-game. The pets are just smaller variants without the texture maps. There is NOTHING new. It's just more copypasta.

    Also, its getting out of hand that we can now pilot Enemy NPC Mobs Boss ships now. Those should be off-limits. But yeah, like the above poster said, I'm sure we'll get a Voth Citadel and Borg Diamond soon enough. :/

    Best part is, you do not have to buy it! So don't gripe about it :-)

    I don't think they've learned that people hate it when accolades and story elements are put in a lockbox. And I bet they tied a couple of accolades to those doff assignments (Complete and crits) to add insult to injury.

    On the other hand, kudos for releasing a trait that helps bring some balance to the part gens+TBR spamming builds.

    Those starship traits seem nice. If I'm not going to get the Scryer for my Science characters, one of these would be a good replacement.
