    I look forward on the chance to be the first kid on my block to kill a Scimitar.

    I am hoping to see two Scimitars kill each other in a thalaron suicide joust.

    To be fair, the Jupiter and Typhoon fans (:rolleyes:) have been waiting for those ships for quite some time. At this point most of the threads we *ahem* they post in are for jest.

    Well I've already seen one post where someone said the Jupiter should be released with the same stats as the Scimitar, plus they acted like they were as put apon as the KDF...like they haven't gotten a unique ship in years.

    Flying around in Kerrat in my usual cloaked Fleet Defiant...
    Seeing my favorite warbird (it really is) starting to use the thelaron pulse...
    Using APA, APO, CRF, TT, FomM, TF...
    Decloaking and using tractor beam...
    Firing off two DHCs, a THY quantum, and a BO dual beam bank...
    Watching it make a pretty black hole.

    All while under the battle cloak of the T5 Rom rep power. How's that for killing under a cloak, Scimitar?

    :D
    I ask nothing but that you remember me.

    I am also looking forward to trolling Scimitars when they start to Thalaron pulse, by using KB abilities like Magnometric Overload, MACO beam, and TBR. :D
    I remain empathetic to the concerns of my community, but do me a favor and lay off the god damn name calling and petty remarks. It will get you nowhere.
    I must admit, respect points to Trendy for laying down the law like that.

    It is said the best weapon is one that is never fired. I disagree. The best weapon is one you only have to fire... once. B)

    Laughed my rear off reading those, thank you! :D

    I think I may have to author some of those ideas just to make them become a reality. ;)

    Hi'

    I really hope you've done the underbelly as well. Usually I've seen 3D models of the Scimitar with a flat dorsal side of the main hull while it's actually not, as seen in the link below:
    http://en.memory-alpha.org/wiki/Star_Trek_Nemesis?file=USS_Enterprise-E_and_Scimitar_following_collision_extraction.jpg

    And a rear view:

    Hope this is helpful :)

    From the pics they've released and some leaked videos, I can say you won't be disappointed with the models at all :D

    The point where the turn mode of 1 is released for this ship, and the Romulan players howl that it should be at least as manueverable as a Bird of Prey.

    While ive read all the information 5 fore gun slots and all the jazz looking at its hull integrity and your only giving it a regular battle cloak? Not buying one unless they amp that puppy up to an enhanced battle cloak.

    My two cents thanx devs.:cool:
  • saxfiresaxfire Member Posts: 558 Arc User

    so instead of cloak that can have shields up and can shoot cannons and any other weaponry when cloaked, you also want it to be able to use all possiple abilities aswell? gosh people...

    I'm most looking forward to buying the 5-pack without spending a dime and not putting in a whole lot of effort. I've got about 2500 zen right now that I didn't buy and I'm working on the rest. I've got 11 toons all doffing and turning in contraband and prisoners and I've got two guys with a bunch of those high quality dilithium mining slips. I'm well on my way, just ~283,000 to go.

    *Facepalm through the back of my skull*

    uhh here are the consoles http://imgur.com/a/u7hdR

    if you ask me, thats better than enhanced battle cloak - you get shields and energy weapons. Combined with the fact that its basically a cruiser version of the andorian escorts with the 5/3 weapons and the thalaron pulse and there is NO WAY THIS SHIP WILL BE UNDERPOWERED.

    I'm not saying it will be OP... wait... yes I am, but I'm OK with that

    i guess the OP expected something on a whole new level of ship power...so it is not surprising that some people with similar expectations will be disappointed, no matter how overpowered it may be.

    Was fairly confident that the ship would be the ultimate case of pay to win, overpoweredness in the history of PWE/Cryptic.

    Whilst I still feel the console set on paper feels very OP... I think they have created a well balanced ship. Touche devs... You can surprise the player base once in a while!

    I think are are many out there who are expecting it to be exactly like the ship from Nemesis. That thing was a plot device, not a ship. Sorry folks, but this is a game, not a movie, and it's not realistic to think you're getting something that powerful.
