    Dominion LockBox? Nope, this is a PvP LockBox.

    More useless junk, the cross-faction console is junk, mirror voquv will probably be useless, and everyonewith either a sugar mommy or daddy will have Mk XII Jem Space sets.

    GG Crypric, you just killed your attempts to revive PvP.

    I thought the same thing. Glad to see I'm not the only one. Only a few more weeks to go before the anniversary, then I'll know if I should toss my keys into the incinerator or not.

    Because a carrier sells better.

    Through this they sell out the KDF carrier to the federation.

    I've been told, "yes" :)

    Cheers,

    Excellent. Odd that the ship I'm most looking forward to now is a "consolation prize." ;)

    The attack ship pets sound awesome, and I have one. But, Its on another character. So will my new character still be able to purchase the pets since its on the same account? I'm sure I'm not the only one thats going to be in this situation.

    Doubt it.Probably only on the character that has the JHAS.

    looking at the new lockbox info... it looks like the Jem HEC or Dreadnought Carrier could be the in game version of said battle cruiser.... then again, a lot of the bigger jem ships look the same.

    So lolaron pets? Hmm pvp will be "fun", especially if this dreadnought/carrier will run on drain build.

    it is actually a armour look and since the KDF do not have the armour skins they really can't benefit from the cosmetic look

    I'm not terribly impressed with this lock box. The only interesting thing, *may* be the fighters

    Hey all.

    I have to say that I'm looking forward to the new Dominion ships. I have a really important question for the devs and I'm hoping one can answer.

    With the Cardassian Galor I can understand that you need a Galor on that particular toon to buy a Spiral Wave disruptor with dilithium. In the same vein, are we going to have to have a Jem'Hadar attack ship on the same toon as the new Dominion carrier in order to be able to use the Jem'Hadar attack wing and the new ship skin?

    I think needing the Jem'Hadar attack ship and the Jem'Hadar Carrier on the same toon to unlock these awesome features is not really fair. My toon with the Jem'Hadar Attack Ship has had its skills tuned to match the Attack Ship's capabilities and won't translate well to a carrier. I'm also sure that I'm not the only person to do this. Forcing us to have the carrier and Attack Ship on one toon will therefore ultimately result in us not being able to properly enjoy both ships.

    As I'm sure it's not PWE's intention for players to be put in a situation where we can't fully enjoy the content you create for us, can I ask that you please have the carrier detect whether you currently have a Jem'Hadar attack ship on the same account as opposed to the same toon? That way we can ensure that the captain of this awesome new ship can be skilled to make best use of its capabilities and we can maximise our enjoyment of our new content.

    STO community, is this a fair request and do you support it? Please keep it constructive!!

    Thank you.

    Devs i was looking forward to this lockbox, I actually thought i was gonna be able to own my favourite ship from DS9. Iv played this game since beta, so devs will it ever be possible to own a jem hadar battlecruiser in this game??

    That was one of my favourites, which has soured my view on the box. its still nice its just not what i personally hoped for.

    i assume it was because there are tons of cruisers and they did not want another one.

    maybe next year.

    You sir, take all the internets. :D

    In all seriousness though, I am not looking forward to this lockbox. :( Not one carrier but TWO, and they have what looks like massive debuff capability.

    I'm beginning to wonder if Cryptic truly despises Cruiser Captains. :(

    You're suggesting we respec each time we change ship? I hardly see this as a constructive comment.

    Great, another carrier ...

    Agreed ... I'm not a carrier jock ... not even the escort carriers really grab me.

    I'll have to wait to see the stats on the escort carrier for the ship itself and BOFF layout before I decide but not overly excited ... but that's just me on this one.

    Please don't outclass the Jem'Hadar attack ship with this, I'm fine with ships being on the same level as the Attack ship, but I don't want it outdated.

    Toss in that they are likely also looking at the fact that the two "past" ships are about to hit game and both are cruisers.

    Actually, Feds have had the Atrox(Go Kilrathi... err.. I mean Caitians...) for a while now.... Heh... actually feds still don't have a free carrier. KDF can get a Vo'Quv carrier simply by buying it at a shipyard. you can even use your Brigadier General ship token to get one.

    more ships that spew other ships will turn pvp into some form of pve with enemy players somewhere in the backround.Of course the UI and the way you select you target from that 100000000000000000000000 targets is the same.I guess this will bring few less fps in game.

    oh and great job with the jem hadar set upgrades which will probably cost few hundred lobies.We will now know for sure every person will have equal equipment in pvp.

    not to mention the Recluse Carrier from the lobi store.

    The Jem Hadar MK XII space sets sound good. Ground sets, not so much.

    If they fix the Lobi or items so we can move it between characters, I might be interested.

    If they keep the same weak-assed bound system that is holding this games playerbase back, I might not waste my time with it.

    What fighter? I saw the non-combat pet in the lobi store mentioned, but not a playable fighter.
