    Others may well disagree with me, but I think that is possibly the ugliest ship design I have ever seen in any kind of Star Trek content.

    I don't disagree at all. I thought the "bubblehead" sci ship was ugly, but this.....?

    Also, the front of the nacelles seem to be made of colored glass. You can see the ship's hull through the one on the left.

    i really dont like the nacelle styling they are like lipstips jammed onto the side of the ship. I can see what they are trying to do putting in a link to the enterprise J but i think its a bit forced.

    I'm in the same position - I love the Paladin, Theseus, Ouroboros and Sagittarius (not massively keen on the Eternal, but it's tolerable) but that thing...dear God, no. There seems to be some debate as to whether the new T6 temporal ships will only be useable on characterrs created for the expansion or whether our current characters can have them too. Assuming the latter, which would seem far more likely to me, I will more than likely cave in and get the pack at some stage. The more I look, the more I like the looks of most of the more modern ships, and the TOS-aesthetic on the others will serve its purpose.

    The space wheelbarrow though...still no.

    It's Cinco de mayo and they released a wheelbarrow. Not saying there is a coincidence, but there might be a coincidence.
  • szimszim Member Posts: 2,503 Arc User
    With some decent looking warp nacelles it would be somewhat acceptable, unique but ok. If you put them in relation to the ship's windows you get a sense of how big these nacelles have to be. It's an abomination.

    I have a rather different perspective on aesthetics then most people. I appreciate uniqueness rather than more of the same.

    Is she gonna be winning any beauty contests anytime soon? No, but I can appreciate her for more then just her looks. I'm not that shallow... ;)

    I dunno... Looks like Deadulus/OLympic variant, and they are all a bit on the ugly side. (By which I mean I hated them when I flew them. Going from the Nova to the Olympic variants was a total downgrade on my first char.) But I know there are golfball fans out there.

    This is what I'm hoping for.​​

    ^^ basically what I said. And I agree. Besides let's not forget that beauty is always in the eye of the beholder. Majority opinion means nothing because we've all spent our lives being Indoctrinated to believe certain things are aesthetically pleasing and others are not with little chance to make up our own minds. After all a few hundred years ago being slightly overweight was considered extremely attractive.

    too be fair it still is depending on what your into... I'm going with this ship is not sexy at all though.


    if I stop posting it doesn't make you right it. just means I don't have enough rum to continue interacting with you.

    Perhaps but it is unique which is what I value above all else. That's why I bought the Na'Kuhl ships as well.

    For me the nacelles just dont look TOS or anything else.Trek Not just this ship either. I thought it was a joke at first. Man was I wrong.

    Edit: Now I know what they remind me of, take a look at some of the Klingon ships. T5-6
    Positive thoughts.

    I have to disagree with you my good Sir, I'm quite fond of this design myself actually.

    Yes, but "unique" doesn't mean ugly. The Na'kuhl ships are certainly very unique, but they look good too. This ship is just really odd-looking and unflattering in many ways. I'd like it more if the "wheel" section was rotated so that it was parallel with the rest of the ship's frame. Then it would have a proper saucer section.

    Beauty is in the eye of the beholder, though. I'm just saying that you can make a ship unique-looking without it coming out ridiculous.

    Looks like someone stuck a pair of Warp Nacelles on a frakking bike wheel to me.

    And yes, normally I'm willing to give ships the benefit of the doubt in regards to appearance, but the Nautilus? No, just no, it's going to need GREAT stats if I'm going to use it.

    Ah but in space there is no up and down so why can't the saucer section be flipped?
  • talonxvtalonxv Member Posts: 4,257 Arc User
    Guys there's always atleast one ugly looking ship in an expansion pack.

    If I can use the Olympic skin and it has great stats I'd consider it. I guess time will tell.

    At least it's graceful. More than we can say for a lot of Fed ships we've been stuck with.

    I fully expect to see a few of these named USS Pizza Cutter or some variation on the theme of Pizza Cutter.
