    They tried to do this in order to contact the Collective. My point is the Borg assimilate people, not starships. That's why they fly around in cubes, and spheres, and not a hodge podge of various borgified vessels from assimilated races.

    The picture on the previous page says otherwise.

    I love the Nova Class (and Rhode Island variant) a lot.

    But the deflector dishes are supposed to have an Intrepid-style orange/red plate on them, with the blue glow only appearing around the edges.

    I know such a change is unlikely, but I'd be eternally grateful.
    You're right. The work here is very important.

    Does it really matter what borgs do?

    This is borg equipment that the federation/Klingons/Romulans have added to their own ship.

    It is no reason for them to make their ship ugly unless function require them to make asymmetric designs. :rolleyes:

    Don't know if i'm right here, but...

    I have a problem with my Prometheus-class vessel (and i think everyone else with this ship has). Since today the small warp nacelle behind the bridge is gone. Same for the one under the alpha module if you separate with MVAM. The warp trails are there, just the nacelles are invisible.
    I really hope this will be fixed soon.

    It's really seriously disappointing to me that

    A) this many mistakes were made in the first place during the development of the ship models (really? You messed up the space ships? The central theme of the franchise?)

    and B) that even after these mistakes have been carefully outlined and made obvious by these diligent fans and players, the mistakes continue to not be corrected.

    This game has been out for years and years. Why have the ships not been fixed yet? Why are they still wrong, Cryptic? Did you fire all your 3D artists as soon as the game was released? Can't be that, because you released that Romulan expansion. I would have rather seen the existing game fixed before additional game was added.

    since its been released, the advanced escort and all of its various models have been missing secondary impulse engines. now you might think, secondary impulse engines, who cares, right? well, when you use multi vector assault mode, the beta and gamma hull sections use the secondary impulse engines. at the moment theres just two red dots floating behind these sections and voodoo magic does the rest.

    I don't think this is as big a fix as changing the SHAPE of the hull, but more of a adding some lines and coloring inside those lines red, fix. I really hope I am right and not just making myself appear dumb. ( I'm probably wrong, just FYI )

    I just picked up the new Tempest (shiny!) and while customizing it discovered what looks like a broken model on the saucer segment:

    If you look, the dropnose portion of the saucer is missing the internal walls, and you can see right through what should be solid hull to the rest of the saucer on the other side.

    The Zephyr(commander escort) should have the windows near its deflector and under the nacelles, and the block inbetween the rear half of those nacelles removed.

    A picture for what I mean. http://s1288.photobucket.com/user/lansing702/media/screenshot_2014-05-12-20-32-10_zpsad8cc660.jpg.html?state=replace

    The windows of the Kar'Fi carrier should really change color when one use the Reman space set.

    It just looks wrong with that windows remains red when rest change to light blue/green. :P
