Well I was unable to sleep so I decided to post something

As far as I know the new ranks of admiral and fleet admiral are coming out next year.
I am sure T6 ships will be coming out around that time too.
I was hoping that they make the T6 ships truly original and not another retrofit of a 24 century ship

In my opinion the Tactical ships should have like four cannons coming out the front.
The Cruiser ship should be as big as a space station and be a carrier.
And the science one hmmm not sure there... maybe something like a Warship Voyager.
Anyways I think at this time it will also be a good idea to add something unique for Lifetime Members. Maybe an Ambassador T6 ship with some multi functionality (like neutral BOs) that is only exclusive to Lifetime Members.
And if you really want to be nice, make it a liberated Borg Cube (and of course it has to be the most powerful player own ship!!!)
Ohhh yeah... That and a dollar match for my Canadian Loonie will sure make me into a Lifetime Members (even if the game goes Free to Play)

I really hope you are kidding about this, you aren't willing to pay the extra .02cdn per usd for a lifetime? 1.00USD = 0.98CDN right now, that is about as close to par as you are going to see.
That is exactly it.
My Canadian membership will cost me 343.74 not the 305.98 that it should be
Cryptic or Atari are slow at upgrading their fees and are therefore taking advantage of us your poor frozen Canadian brothers
PS: I though the Ambassador was a newer ship but yeah in general I would like to see 25th century ships in T6 and not remakes of 24th or earlier ones.
The only thing I can agree with you is that there should be more original ships, maybe player designed?
Otherwise I couldn't disagree more with everything else. We should never be able to own a Borg Cube, just no.
And making it Tier 6, it would almost force me to upgrade for the new bridge slots even though I have so far resisted the Cloaked Defiant as I still think the Prometheus is superior.
I just hope that instead they work out how to retrofit the older classes for T6 to give more variety in end game, Starfleet didn't just send the Galaxy Classes in during the Dominion War, they had every class in the battles, and I would like to see a more mixed fleet when doing high end content.
But we are able to play a Liberated Borg and have a Liberated Borg BO :cool:
I think it is just logical to be able to own a liberated Borg ship (maybe a small sphere or a diamond) lol
But just to put my own wishes in order.
1) T6 ship to be original 25th century style.
2) Lifetime Membership to have their own T6 exclusive ship, a multipurpose one with neutral BOs.
3) For Atari/Cryptic to readjust the subscription cost for Canadians (our dollar is almost at part not at .88 cent)
That is it
Aside from the fact that T6 ships could be a good cash cow to take money out of the economy (perhaps set a prize in the millions of replicator rations AKA energy credits.)
They could give as a new Rank for our BOs. Perhaps Fleet Admiral can promote BOs. to Captain
After all the Admiral although in charge is not really the Captain of the ship he is in
so wish:
4) A new rank of Captain for our BOs.
PS: and that will allowed T6 ships to have one higher up BO. for a total of 6 BOs.
Yeah, I remember seeing that post once upon a time. I'd say Cryptic is just not saying anything on the subject currently, as it will be a minimum of season 6 (probably later than that) before they have time to properly implement anything like this.
We know from past comments (remember the first pass at retrofit ship stats and the Excelsior), that they want to at a minimum overhaul/tweak all the current ship stats/BO allocations. Cryptic has also commented on occasion (I'm pretty sure I remember this as a DStahl comment a while ago) that they would like to implement some kind of ship upgrade system as it is a frequently requested feature on the forums.
Ah, I missed the Romulan faction time frame comment before. That would indeed possibly leave season 5 for something like this then. Thanks for the information.
Well what are they going to do/work on for the next year and beyond?
My guess is that they will bring more Ships, Skills, Weapons, Armor, maybe even Power Armor and Ground Vehicles, etc... in the future.
MMO always need more material and people who are paying monthly fees do expect the game to continue to grow and get bigger and bigger
Maybe T6 ships, Captain BOs and T6 skills, will be next Christmas project (Season 6).
Who knows
so that may be your t6 ship
Whether there will even be Tier Six ships is TBD (to be decided) according to the information we have.
I personally hope that we never see another tier. There's just no point to it. It's not like if we get a Tier Six that the enemies are going to remain "levelled" to Tier Five ships. It's a futile arms race with no purpose since you're never going to "get ahead." Since the enemy of "at level" content will always be tailored to provide challenge for what you have at your disposal, the progression that any future tiers will provide is, in fact, an illusion.
Beyond that people have bought, with real money, Tier Five ships. Introducing a Tier Six makes all of those ships obsolete, and those purchases... kind of a bad idea. It also devalues over a dozen products currently available in the C-Store and still for sale (Tier Five ships, and ship skins). The only way to prevent this is to give basically every Tier Five ship a "retrofit" to Tier Six... which raises the question of, if we're still going to have Tier Five ships at Tier Six... why have a Tier Six at all?
It's just a bad idea to introduce another tier.
A better idea is just to expand on what we have in the game. Redesign Tier Five ships and expand and broaden what they're each capable of. Add more to what is available there so that they gain more, and more varied abilities, so that they stand out against each other and more room is created for adding additional ship types to that tier.
Build out instead of up. Instead of adding redundant Tier Six versions of what we have now, start adding in new ship types at Tier Five, with different designs and purposes.
personal i would like them to add a system where you can refit your ship so that if you like the lower tiers ship you can refit them so you get the higher level powers with BOs and have the upgrade hull becuase if you have a nova refit lets say to the next tier it becomes that tier three and you points in and you have a better hull and the what ever else the high tiers get but the crew always stay the same so if you go out of you way to get a Galaxy in crusiers that a little Con ship has the same crew number as you. I just dont know what they would do with the dang T5 galaxy. guess you just have to up to the T5 the boom you got the powers idk
