    I can't wait to fly these veteran ships on the live servers. The team has been making some truly epic stuff.

    Okay. I smell console/special power.

    If only because he emphasized "team."

    Which suggests more than just JamJamz on art and Geko on stats.

    Yay, its not a T5 Connie or a Temporal ship. If it was a temporal ship, then realising info about it after the lockbox would have been a very bad idea.

    Not necessarily. Especially if it adds a console to the Temporal set and is partly designed to spike UP lockbox sales.

    Connie is unlikely but Excalibur/Exeter/Vesta/New version is possible, I think.

    Speculations, Speculations, Speculations. Your all wrong :)

    You will just have to patient.

    Bah, but speculating on new ships is fun!!!

    Though be funny if it was a garbage scow.......for the first day. :P

    Which I have to say Thank You for the Regent and basing her off my Frontier. Honestly never thought something like that ever would happen. Especially being a replacement of my favorite ship with some of the abilities I've long wanted for the Sovereign. :D

    Though she does need swept back pylons.

    And be nice to get a unique title since I was technically part of the design team. (Hey, gotta try. People got unique titles for naming the Dervish. I actually helped design a ship.) ;)

    We've already announced them :)Here. The only thing missing from that list is what the actual forum title is, as well as the in-game title; you'll have to check out the blogs for those :P

    Cheers,

    Brandon =/\=

    yes, you did, but that text is soooo oooooold.
    maybe you had a few new ideas in the last 500 days or so?

    looking at Champions Online, they added something VERY nice in the daily refining cap category, i WANT THAT too!


    Oh and i have just one question for the Ship... was it on TV?
    or is it a made up Cryptic ship? Canon or no-Canon that's the question!

    PS: how will we SEE the ship on an Audio Podcast !?

    I'm still holding my prediction and sticking by that the 1,000 day ships will be:

    Mirror Galaxy-R

    Mirror Negh'var

    :rolleyes:

    Has it been confirmed yet that these are T5 ships?

    Maybe we just get some fancy new starter ships...

    Considering the KDF has currently no level 1 this would be foolish beyond comprehension.

    Yea right... forget it... beyond their abilities.
    Don't look silly... Don't call it the "Z-Store/Zen Store"...
    Let me put the rumors to rest: it's definitely still the C-Store (Cryptic Store) It just takes ZEN.

    Will there be ANY other way to get the 1000 day ship variant ? Maybe via the ZEN store?
    I wouldn't spend hundreds of $$ just to get a ship i want.

    Yeah, i thought about somehinhg like a Z-Store version with different/limited Ship parts or something like that.
    I think it would be a bit unfair if that ship would be completely exclusive for just some people.
    There is a difference between a pointless firework and a fully functional ship.

    well , its a reward for people being subscribed for a thousand days
    if it were made available to everyone regardless , it'd be a hell of a lot more unfair to those that have been subbed that long

    I just want to make one comment,

    I was waiting and saving ZEN since I heard Cryptic would be releasing the Vesta.

    I have read the novels and I strongly believe the Vesta is an iconic non-canon ship.

    I really want that ship and I was waiting eagerly for its release.

    Giving this just to a bunch of people would be one of the most unfair and disappointing things made by Cryptic, IMO.

    Well

    Considering that to get vet rewards you either have

    A) paid several hundred dollars for a lifetime subscription

    Or

    B) paid 15 dollars a month for roughly 3 years which would be around 500 bucks somewhere

    I would say that those who get it have paid several hundred dollars for the ship at this point. If they put it in the cstore then it should be priced at 500 bucks.

    I think there should be some exclusive things. I had no problem with lts having borg captains when i was just a monthly subscriber. Now i can have a borg captain if i want cause i invested in my lts.

    Your complaining that a bunch of people will have it but you want it in the cstore?

    Wow .

    You realize that there will be a ton of them out there once it hits the cstore right? I mean all i ever hear is Vesta this and Vesta that. Everyone (except me) is going to flying them especially since that will probably be a cstore ship.

    I thought it was just me that never saw the fascination with the Vesta. I'd never even heard of it until I started playing STO then when I saw it I just thought it looked like a Star Cruiser with cannons.

    Maybe I didn't make myself clear, I was complaining against to have one ICONIC ship given to a small portion of the game population, which are the ones with 1k days.

    That's all.

    It was clarified above that is not the case, so fine by me since I want to buy it.

    no pictures as of yet , though priority one said they'll be uploading some at some point :)
    as for the vesta , personally its a favourite of mine but unless you've read the books its a relative unknown to most people
    hopefully both the starfleet and kdf 1k ships will be something completely new , but keeping in the current style :)
    its a given it'll have the 2409 skin , but other than that we know nothing at all

    Na... The vestas is a horrible looking ship, wich appearently hasnt gotten textures yet, and we are still waiting for the others to release.
