What Discovery Ship would you like to see released next?

centurian821

With the release of the Europa/Nimitz-Class and since the USS Sebrova was a Shepard-Class, I wanted to ask folks what playable ship they'd like to see next from Discovery.

For visual reference only I'm not here to start or see any arguments: http://www.ex-astris-scientia.org/schematics/discovery_federation.htm

ALL OF THEM!

Shepard ftw!

The Shepard is to my liking too, but the Disco aesthetics and texture styles seem to better suit the Cardenas, maybe because it has more aggressive angles without being over the top.

I'd like some KDF ships. SOME of the designs, like the bird of prey and the Qugh have grown on me.
I have one KDF toon, that I'd like to collect the various timeline, or whatever's - birds of prey.

I voted Cardenas cause I love the look of that ship, but the connie is my runner up, I love the way it looks. I just know that if the connie does come out, there's not a chance in hell I can ever afford it.​​

I'm hoping the Discovery Connie is a T5 release to make it accessible to all, but doesn't step on the toes of those that shelled out for the T6 Temporal.

I voted Cardenas Class, looks like a sleeker Cheyenne

I like the Engle-class (even though it was misspelled on the poll)

uhh... whoops. I honestly always read that as Eagle not Engle seems I need to slow my skimming a bit.

All of them but I’d give my first born for a Discovery Enterprise

I like both the shepard and engle classes. However, after seeing it in-game, I dropped all consideration for buying the europa and decided to hold out for the shepard. It's definitely more of a "hero" ship.

Cardenas.

But I'd recommend the devs to release scaling T1-4 ships of the same type as well, and in a bundle with the T6. There's money in that.

I'd be so much more than ecstatic if we could get Scaling T1-T4 versions of all of these.

I personally would like scaling KDF Bird-of Prey from Discovery era for starting my future KDF alts.

kodachikuno

Charon.... no seriously I want that monster! We have Valkis and EntJ so dont tell me its too big.

I also like the uniqueness of the mage but cardenas won my vote

rexyf

Gimme dat Disco-BoP. I need it for Necromonger reasons.

lilithene666

I.S.S. Charon
(and before any naysayers, its only abit bigger than the Ent-J length wise, J's actually wider)

alyxvixen

Torn between the Magee and Cardenas.

I'd like to see the Shepard as a c-store pack with Klingon Disco ship.

I'd like the Shepard to be a destroyer rather than a cruiser or battlecruiser since we already got those. It's too big to be an escort.

1: Hideki
2: Promo/lock box version of an Excelsior that doesn't suck. Similar layout to the Constitution but with miracle worker spec.
3: K'Vort with a nearly cloned setup from the Morrigu and with command or some other spec to differentiate it.

My #1 is the Cleave battleship, and we know it's in STO already!

I want them to give the correct warp animations to the Discovery era ships on all characters first.

That's not how it worked on the shows though. Mirandas and Excelsiors on DS9 used the TNG era warp effects.

On Disco however, all the ships so far have used the same warp animations so the ships in the game should use the same. Its just lazy for Cryptic not to.

kekvin

Id like to see the shepard. The new conie will come hopefully

epsilon020

Can we get both the Shepard and Con class?

lianthelia

To be honest, I think I'd only be interested in one if they made it a carrier, mostly all I fly these days are carriers.

avoozuul

None. There's other Star Trek ships which I would rather see released in T6 form first.

I'd vote for a DSC skin for the Connie, because it is the only ship class not entirely anachronistic to established eras (none of the ships look remotely like the Kelvin or TOS design lineages). You can, by the way, call it "Wartime refit" because you can do whatever you like, but it doesn't make sense. The DSC Connie is not a refit of the TOS connie, the shows are, visually, incompatible (and out-of-universe acknowledged to intentionally be this way).​​

Astris Scientia is a non canon source so i can't use that. Apart from that, i will vote for the Shepard Class as well. it has that typical federation style to it, flowing curves, no sharp bits anywhere with a large saucer shape.

With the exception of the Walker all of the other ships (or at least the Crossfield, Shepard, Nimitz, and Cardenas who all share nacelle designs) are newer than the Conni and are succeeded by the TMP era ships.​​

I left this tab open for an entire week to reply to it now

The Crossfield is newer, the other ships sharing it's nacelle design though we have no idea. If (big if) registries are to go by, no they aren't. Then we have no way of telling. The reason we have those nacelles is, of course, out-of-universe - the design was supposed to be radically different to not look like anything that came before. However, the Connie did not get rectangular nacelles, it kept the "NX-esque" form but the ship doesn't make a dated impression. On the contrary, with the spiffy uniforms and all it seems like it's supposed to be state-of-the-art and the other ships are current ships of the line or at least build after a dated design (but might be new vessels). I think Season 2 will give us a glimpse at this and see whether round nacelles in the TOS era is something that even DSC uses, but even if they don't being a acknowledged visually incompatible installation of Trek there shouldn't be too much thought put into it. It's just a skin put on, not any indication of logical progression.

Which I think is a shame, because those ships break the lineage of the established aesthetics. The NX refit was suppposed to have TOS-ified parts in it, leading to the Daedalus and so on. I would have liked that (in general, it's hard to believe that I now wish for ENT to be back we got DSC ). These ships neither look like the Kelvin nor like TOS. Regardless of canon or not, I think it's a shame ​​
