    Meh...more feddie ship request. Besides which, the T6 nova isn't even made yet...so asking for more canon feddie ships is probably not gonna happen. Also the no T6 Vor'cha say hi...and will be very upset if the feddie bears gets more canon ships while not having a T6 version of one the MOST iconic KDF ship in the game.

    How about a Norway/Vor'cha/(made-up warbird) battlecruiser pack?

    Why do you think they make that many Fed ships?

    Chances are KDF ships don't sell as well, and hence, they put resources into what makes money...

    Of cause, this is the point where KDF create all theese imaginary made up excuses as to why there should be all these wonky KDF ships... Go ahead...

    Don't look silly... Don't call it the "Z-Store/Zen Store"...
    Let me put the rumors to rest: it's definitely still the C-Store (Cryptic Store) It just takes ZEN.

    Considering how many different ships there are already on the fed side...those on the KDF side who wants one of the most inconic ship for their faction as a T6 says stop being greedy. Dev time is a limited resource. This actually is a zero sum game. If they spend time doing the 3D model for the ships you want, the KDF can't get the 3D models for the T6 vor'cha...and on the fed side, no T6 nova...which makes fed sci players sad panda. And let's face it, neither the new orleans or norway will be science ships if they are made since science ships don't sell. But really do you feel that the feds could use yet another cruiser or escort? Because I sure as hell don't. Let the people who have been ignored get some love.


    Funny how that works: I always think it's the KDF that gets all the good stuff. :) Like those Lethean (sp?), 'Starfury' like ships you recently got (with gorgeous red Disruptors to go with it). Or those 'Dory in Space' Scourge Destroyers. And what's that beautiful ship called with its piano-black hull? Us Feds, we only get the umptiest, boring 'saucer' ships.

    Not to mention the Mat'Ha, best tacship of 2014. Love the nose cannons -- Wham! Wham! Wham! Wham! *** ships explode **

    Exeter looks more like a 25th century version than a 24th century one.

    or it could be (nad has been alluded to) that there are Devs who don't like the KDF. it a tragedy thay in the the entire time STO has been online that there has not been a K'vort battlecruiser. so lets see that before some kitbash TRIBBLE background ship

    unless it's in dsicovery, the D6 does not appear in Canon. mentioned in ENT maybe but not in TOS TNG DS9VOY

    Sure there are devs who don't like the KDF... There are also 100% devs who hate the Fed's...

    This is one of those imaginary reasons I wrote about... It's ridiculous that this always has to be spelled out (let's do it anyway), but the dev's don't decide where their time is spend... Their bosses and marketing departments decide that.

    And anyone thinking otherwise is just demonstrating a lack of knowledge about how business works.

    Yes...but it wasn't just any old dev...it was the HEAD dev who made such allusions. You know, one of those people in charge who makes the decisions.


    I say, as long as Gecko keeps bringing in the money, he gets to decide 90% of what's happening in STO.

    I'd say these things are decided upon neither directly by a lead Dev, nor marketing, but simply by demand, primarily. The vast majority of the player base wants to play Fed, and Kirk around. Marketing knows this. It would be foolish -- business suicide almost -- to not follow the numbers. So, whatever the lead Dev 'decides', it's ultimately just governed by marketing result stats.

    To be entirely honest, I wish they'd use some of their ship remodelling time on some of the old uniforms. Some of them look pretty bad these days.

    Well it's certainly true, and that was the underlying intention of my post.

    The marketing teams tell them "Metrics say people want to play fed, make fed ships", so Dev-lead says "We make fed ships... marketing told us to... lets start coming up with ideas"... Basically like this... [/simplified]

    I'd like to see more c-store ships to fill in the gaps, things like 23c battlecruisers for Romulans and KDF, a true carrier for Romulans with frigate pets, and a t6 vor'cha to name a few

    The Norway Class was integrated into the Akira line of ships in STO. Although you can create an exact replica, you can make a similar model.....and it's also in the Shipyards description, just go check the Fleet Akira.

    The New Orleans Class was only ever a test-bed class for new tech for the TNG Era ships. They would have to create a new T6 model and it's not really probable that they will create a new lower tier ship just for fan service, especially when it had barely no screen time....EVER.
