Ok ive seen 2 people now on xbox with the concorde class command battlecruiser,i've not seen them in the c-store or anywhere for purchase........so my question is this

How have those 2 people got this ship on consoles when there is nowhere that you can buy them?

    Could it be a result of using Fleet Support or Photonic Fleet?

    So again how do people have these ships on console when they are not out on console?

    Are you sure these aren't just using the ship tailor with other ships?
  • ussproximaussproxima Member Posts: 52 Arc User
    There is no ship on console that can use those skins

    There wasn't a player name on the command ship in your vid/screenshot. Could it have been an NPC?
  • ussproximaussproxima Member Posts: 52 Arc User
    Ok location was the kuda system
    The ship was just sat there for about 30mins then i left,so could be longer.

    The first concorde class ship i saw warped in behind me at spacedock then flew towards earth dock (wish i had've video'ed that but didnt sorry).

    The presidio above when i clicked on it was called the uss stardancer,ive seen plenty of npcs during missions and that but this was in the kuda system which i've not seen npcs before.

    It's clearly an NPC Ship. It just says U.S.S. Stardancer above it, no player name like all the other players in your video.

    No player on the console has a Presidio, that ship is not a player.
    Insert witty signature line here.

    I agree with the above that is an NPC ship. Sometimes when you enter a system, specially one that involves combat. A friendly NPC will warp in with you or already be present in the area. I have encountered the Enterprise, and Voyager before. (In random system patrols). Dont think i have seen the Stardancer before but its possible.

    Seems a fair assumption but having a ship or ships we dont yet have on consoles is kind of a tease lol.

    When will we be getting them anyway?
  • antonine3258antonine3258 Member Posts: 2,391 Arc User
    Having trouble opening the clips.

    I know the Presidio on PC is one of the NPC 'battleship-level' Federation ships that can spawn - when they first showed up, they replaced instances of the Typhoon class - I have to imagine the console code is using the newer, sharper battlecruiser model.

    Hopefully they'll show up, I'm fond of them on PC.

    Ok so for the time being,would you say it was worth getting the avenger?

    I'd try to wait for the Arbiter. Start a KDF and Romulan captain to keep you busy while you wait?

  • setsunaseyeisetsunaseyei Member Posts: 35 Arc User
    Dont get the avenger. Get 900 lobi and get the intel dreadnoght.
    Its at fleet level, has a hanger, an intel seat and and temporal seat....for when console gets it.
  • ussproximaussproxima Member Posts: 52 Arc User
    Lol avenger will be alot cheaper

    It's a solid ship, but there's a problem in that it'll get replaced by the even more powerful T6 version, known as the Arbiter, eventually. Also, AFAIK, unless there's a ship sale on, upgrading to T5-U for better hull, and in this case innate armor and critical damage boost, which requires a token that costs Zen (or you can buy the token from someone else paid for in Zen off the Exchange for EC.) No time table for when Cryptic will release ships at T6. Though, if you're wanting to get into Admiralty, it's yet another card for your pile(36 Eng, 42 Tac, 12 Sci and '+10 SCI per SciShip').

    The ship and the upgrade will be 3200 zen so slightly more than a t6 ship but the choice of t6 ships on console........well there isnt many cruisers to pick from.

    Resolute heavy
    Andromeda
    Yamato dreadnaught
    Intel cruiser

    Thats it for cruiser type ships on fed.

    Ok so would a t5u avenger be better than the above ships,or should i get one of them?

    Because as of yet there is no eta on when consoles will be getting the arbiter or any of the other t6 ships.........could be christmas could be months away.

    Depends on preference to some degree - the Avenger's a bit more raw aggressive, but a lot of those others are T6-capable canon ships, or have inbuilt cloaking.

    Speaking of, it looks like the command battlecruisers are now becoming available in the store very soon: http://www.arcgames.com/en/games/xbox/star-trek-online/news/detail/10278483-tier-6-command-ships-federation
