Most revolting Risian Corvette challenge

jaimeson99jaimeson99 Member Posts: 43 Arc User
edited August 2013 in Star Trek Online General Discussion
Found when modifying the appearance of my brand new Corvette today that it has a ridiculous amount of appearance options. Firstly theres 8 different pattern template options, and then when you choose the colour scheme you find it effects the whole ship (rather than tiny almost invisible areas as is the case with most other ships).

So, as an opener I offer you - luminous lime green base colour with blancmange pink stripes. Havent screenshotted it yet as I feel I can do better, but take it from me, its eye-wateringly horrible to look at. Never have I needed to scroll my ship view so far out.

Looking forward to seeing other contributions. Sick bag on standby.

    Think I bought 2 or 3 days worth of pearls with spare lobi I had lying around. As for the colour scheme, all options are free.

    The sickbag however cost a fair amount from zen store->items. Its a required purchase if you choose to take up the challenge though ;)

    Hahah, pleased my paintjob is having the desired effect.

    Be aware that in the "Most Revolting Risian Corvette Challenge", mine is currently winning.

    Put your sunglasses on and post your efforts!

    NB: If ever there was a ship that justified using a rainbow weapon setup, this is it ;)

    I'm less concerned about the gaudy colors than I am about how ridiculously friggin' FAST the sucker is. You haven't seen how fast it goes until you've seen PvPers using the thing in conjunction with EPtE2 or 3 and literally fly circles around you (with you in a damn BoP, at that) and go faster than standard full impulse with just regular engine power alone.

    Sure, I know it's supposed to be fast, but this is ridiculous. Scale it back to .22 or .23, more along the lines of JHAS fast rather than 'ludicrous speed' fast.

    Who the heck thought this ship was a good idea? They need to be hit with something :P

    No desire to derail the central theme of the thread by discussing the ships pros and cons, but can confirm it is stupidly fast ;) Highly entertaining to play and bad guys seem to miss it a lot. Bah. Anyway, must go and see if I can make myself have a seizure with a new colour scheme.

    Looking forward to the unpleasant ships rally.

    This thread is soo going to be overloaded with win! Thanks, OP. For posting and encouraging a refreshing change from all the 'we hates it forevah!' threads. Wish I'd have been a little more serious about getting one of these.

    Hey, devs, a suggestion. Since this thing is basically a hot rod anyways, howzabout adding a special console which plays Beach Boys and Jan and Dean while zipping past all those BoPs in PvP?

    "She's my Little Deuce Coupe. You don't know what I got."

    "Pack it up pack it up, buddy. Gonna shut you down."

    Rock on, Star Trek Surfer Doods! Rock on!

    Haha, you are very welcome. Its easy to lose sight of the fact that its a game so therefore we should be having a laugh (at least some of the time).
