Will there be updates to Sci Carriers???

So with the recent changes to the Escort Carriers et al, it would seem the likes of the Jupiter, Kar'Fi and Vo'Quv are essentially obsolete. Has anyone heard if they plan to make changes to them, because I've heard nothing through the grapevine so far. Even with the Jupiter's Cmdr Sci seating, it is now considerably inferior to the updated ships.

What do you folks think of the current state of Carriers? What I wouldn't mind seeing is them add two more hangars, but have them set as 2 for Frigates and 2 for Fighters.

    Nothing. For now, all the old Carriers basically just remain slightly inferior ships. I guess most people don't care that much, because they can just fly a Flight Deck something and still have all the pet fun.
    I am not sure the game can handle more pets, it would probably require at least some work to add the necessary UI, but it seems it would just overload the already overloaded UI to add even more.

    I'd just add one weapon slot and a secondary deflector (Science Cmdr Carriers), Experimental Weapon (Tactical Cmdr Carriers) or Cruiser Commands (Engineering Cmd Carriers).

    But... but... but... what about my Recluse with three hangars?

    You get that when I get my Risan Yellow Science Vessel Submarine and @reyan01 gets "his" Tier 6 Nova.

    I'm sure the T6-Nova will eventually happen. Perhaps already in 2023, with the new Expansion "STO - Mission of Mercy", alongside a T6 Olympic. This expansion will be the best expansion ever and players will love it. It all starts with grandma Beverly Crusher and her other son (whose Father was that space-ghost from Sub Rosa) and players will fight the Ur-Quan. The R'n'D-Promo will also have the Sa'Matra as the grand-prize.
