    It'd be nice if there were some previews of the Fed ships though.

    Have a feeling we're not gonna get them today... which sucks, because I'm holding off on respeccing my character until I see the new ship variants available and choose if I want to stick to using a Star Cruiser or not. Meh.

    The Patch Day FAQ has a calendar of when each ship is being released in the store.

    I have to say, I'm a bit dismayed at this. I'm not usually one to cry 'But I was promised a pony!' but this is kinda the first we've heard about staggered releases for the new variants. Everything up until this post really suggested that there would be more then one variant up for us today, and I know I, at least, was really looking forward to the new recon sci variant ever since we got that teaser photo back in the engineering report. Is there something that can be done to possibly release at least the first 3 variants together today instead of just the cruiser?

    Sounds like this entire thing wasn't advertised properly, or the information wasn't available, since everyone thought all the ship variants would be available today....a miss-communication issue I guess.

    looking at that schedule you all probably should have said Cruiser Ship variant, instead of fed ship variants.

    anyway we can get some pics of these ships?

    It wasn't a miss-communication. They said the Ship Variants would be out in Season One. Which means by the 31st of March. It says there plainly on the front page. I wouldn't call it a miss-communication but instead a change of plans.

    Okay I'm normally not very against things regarding this game. But this is total bullcrap considering we were told we'd get new ship variants (multiple) not have this "releasing one variant every 2 weeks" TRIBBLE thrown on us. Considering this was, by alot of people, the most anticipated aspect of this update you sure did make this patch a rather big letdown.

    If they're confident enough to post release dates for the ship variants, that likely means they're done. Which means just release them already.

    This is really disappointing. What we really need are T5 variants of everyone's favorite T1-4 ships. It's a real shame that the majority of the ship models in game are discarded as useless by Tier 5.

    I'll pay for a T5 Constitution. Not for more parts for the existing T5 ships.

    The Klingon variants are already in game and available. The C-Store ships are being released by the webstore team as the ship team finishes the models, they are fully tested, and CBS makes the final approval.

    Season One released today. The bit to the 31st was just a window for that. In any case, the schedule has the ship variants being released as far out as the end of MAY, well beyond the window. They clearly did a bad job of communicating intentions here.

    Kind of upsetting when someone selling you stuff says one thing, and then does another ,huh.

    In the Video for Season One there was shown the Rigelian and the Pakled as playable Species. Where are these two Species?

    And for the Ship Variants: It was said that there will be new Ship Variants with Season One and not that you guys will release one Ship every one or two Weeks. Where are these Ships?

    Where is the Prometheus Class Bridge that was shown in the Video for Season One?

    If you Guys don't know what will come with an Update, i suggest you do not tell something only to tell it. Normaly i defend much things within my Fleet but today i am very disapointed of you.

    Just out of curiousity, and this is kinda off topic, but if Cryptic creates a new ship and CBS has to sign off on it, is the ship CBS property or Cryptic's? I only ask because if in the future a new trek tv/movie was released would it be possible that an STO ship would end up in hte movie.

    Like I said...off topic, but was just curious.

    Sorry for the hi-jack

    Are the new T4/5 ships the Ambassador, Oberth, etc, or are those different?

    I think the "ship parts" are actually just paint jobs of existing ships.

    My guess is that if they need CBS approval it's likely that these ships are models that have appeared in the shows.

    They need CBS approval on new designs too. CBS won't let them add their own designs to Trek (even non-canon Trek) without oversight.

    I'm quite surprised that a authorized IP use like wouldn't have a blanket approval to all ship designs from the story.

    Weird, I thought I read somewhere that they didn't need authorization to make non-canon ships (thus why the Star Cruisers are the god awful ugly ones we have now). Perhaps I am mistaken.

    Well, I read somewhere that some variants we were getting included the Oberth, Ambassador, etc. But then I'm also readin about new T4/T5 variants so I'm wondering where the Oberth and such would fall.
