I really hate to say it but... I agree... with one of 'em.
The new(ish) Cruiser is good looking. The Orion ship is average (small fat ship doesn't exactly scream "awesome"). The Gorn ship is incredibly plain, I mean super plain.
Cryptic is hit and miss with all of it's content from models to episodes. I mean, look at some of the great Federation Cryptic Designed ships.... then look at some others like the King of fuglies the Galaxy-class variations which make my eyes bleed. Anyone who uses a Galaxy-class part that isn't an official Galaxy-class part has the ugliest ship in the world. :P
Do you have non-canon examples of the type of ship design you'd like to see?
There is a certain standard to Star Trek ships that has been ignored by the Dev's of this game. By their standards I could pull a butt nugget out of my butt and call it a Tholian ship.
That is what the new KDF ships look like is " butt nuggets. "
I think the new KDF ships are stupid and ugly. The new ships are so far removed from Star Trek, I feel like I'm playing SGU. Poor job Dev's.
seriously, i love every single ship on KDF side, except for that one carrier, fa'kir whatever? dont even wanna know its name. But i think your alone in yer statement that they are all ugly, feel free to either go play fed unless they also dont fit yer vision of what it should be, in which case feel free to leave.

Feel free to leave...Feel free to leave... Who the heck do you think you are, you piece of Targ Dung.

im some1 who enjoys this game, and think the devs are doing an excellent job. TBH you lost the right to say things like "piece of targ dung" the second you started trashing the current KDF ships. Maybe if you ask nicely the devs can make you a nice flying dumpster if thats more up your alley.

Ok, really? This isn't constructive at all.
I think if you're going to criticize the new ships and deem them not of Star Trek canon, you should provide examples of what YOU think would have been a better design.
Personally, I think the new ships are creative and a good addition by incorporating some of the other KDF races into the faction. And the Orion example shows that Cryptic's portrayal is in the spirit of established canon.
I would like to point out are you looking at the ships in humans eyes or orions eyes. What is ugly to you could be beautiful to them

i rather like that Design, its rather bulky and agressive. Not something you could just shoot down in a second im sure. plus for some strange reason i always have an urge to try out ramming speed on it :P
Friends...friends...I don't want any of you reporting me, I'm just having a little fun. (IDIC) take it easy. Yes the the new KDF ships look like dung, but that's OK. Don't take it personally. I am a friend of Online Discussion.

reporting? who said anything about reporting? i build you a nice little pole with a lot of wood under it, try standing against it, its rather good for your back you know, also this nice rope around your hands so you dont fall off you know? security? and ignore the DEATH TO THE STO BASHER banner above it. will you? *rubs his golden Dstahl statue for good luck*

I quite like the Gorn ship myself, It does look more like it belongs in a universe other than trek but still, it looks good, just not overly 'trek-like'. The Orion cruiser though, even though it matches a canon Orion ship in its design principles I don't like it, to me it looks like a lumpy brick without any graceful lines in the whole thing.
Course as others have said, the Nausican destroyer looks sweet and my raptor captain is holding out for one.

Well you are WRONG...WRONG...WRONG. Sir.
opinions...everybody's got 'em

Can't please everyone, and frankly I'm not entirely surprised certain parties didn't like them. I don't think anything would have satisfied.
Well you must be easily impressed.
Or you would have hated anything they made.
I wonder which it is.

Heh, I like to use this picture on the subject of opinions:

Also, (just to keep on topic of the thread) the Orion ship looks pretty similar (IMO) to a canon Orion ship:

(Not exactly the same, but pretty similar.)
Feel free to leave...Feel free to leave... Who the heck do you think you are, you piece of Targ Dung.
If you don't like that one, you have no soul.
your entitled to your opinion. no matter how wrong you really are. and if you dont like it. ill take your stuff. and you can go play stargate.
Why don't you go watch Rushmore or The Royal Tenenbaums and leave Star Trek talk to the Star Trek fans.

I guess I'm not a real fan. Are you more real than me?
Guess what the Orion ship looks like? The Orion one from those Star Trek shows that I'm a fan of.

P.S. Your devil avatar is creepy.
he's offered nothing of value to this "discussion" he started.
go play with that butt nugget you mentioned if it's so much better.

PS "ugly mass of mostly water" from STTNG episode "Home soil" says it all

You Sir are correct, you must agree that OD has become so...so...boring as of late.
reporting? who said anything about reporting? i build you a nice little pole with a lot of wood under it, try standing against it, its rather good for your back you know, also this nice rope around your hands so you dont fall off you know? security? and ignore the DEATH TO THE STO BASHER banner above it. will you? *rubs his golden Dstahl statue for good luck*
But i also think most of the Fed ships Cryptic desigend (not the canon ones), are looking bad (and not very Starfleet like). Sorry.
/ signed!
Yep, thats the sad thing about this thread. And mocking people who have an other opinion looks a little immature in my eyes.
