Playable Borg Ship

superiorterransuperiorterran Member Posts: 48 Arc User
Any way we could have a playable tactical cube or even Borg Unimatrix ship? I'd be willing to spend 300,000 zen on one of them. They would have commander slots for a tac, eng, and sci, and have five consoles in tac, eng, and science. However, they would only get two forward and two aft weapons for balance issues. It would come with a special console, though, to launch the 300k damage torp or plasma bolt. What do you think cryptic?

    A Ship with that configuration is insanely OP even with 2 Forward and Aft Weapons. I can't see PWE putting in Borg ships of that type anyway because that would be a lot of work and they wouldn't sell a ship that powerful because they would charge you an arm and a leg (possibly one of your kidneys too?)

    Its more likely to maybe see a Borg Sphere or Probe However but even then doubtful

    If you are willing to spend 300000 zen on a ship in a game, the best advice I can give you is to stop playing for a while.

    Sure, we will get a playable Borg ship.
    Just wait until the game is in its dying days.

    Again...

    Why do people like the OP hate the dead horse so much, that they feel like kicking it all the time.

    And while on the topic, what makes them think they are the first to ask the question and being rejected, instead of thinking and searching for it?
    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.

    The more you ask.... the more chance you have of getting especially if its something that will make money....... I doubt we would have the Romulans if people didn't constantly make threads about them over the years. Like when people kept making threads about wanting the game to be F2P and Cryptic kept saying no..... (though I suppose that's a little different).

    And like Captain Forehead says... we will get Borg ships...... when the game is in its dying days.
    How I picture a lot of the forumites :P

    If the game ever shuts down (god forbid) I'm sure the final event will allow us all to pilot Borg cubes :)

    I'll just assume the OP is being sarcastic, and this is a subtle poke at Cryptic and their fondness for selling arguably OP ships and gear right?

    Right?

    This statement alone just shouts insane.

    I don't believe this for a minute.

    People having been asking for Cryptic to redo the Galaxy Class for a long time. Still Nothing.
    People have been asking for Engineer/Cruisers and Sciences to be Buffed. Still Nothing.
    People have been asking for Cardassians. Still Nothing.
    People have been asking for customizable unique Boffs. Still Nothing.
    People have been asking for better end-game content. Still Nothing.
    People have been asking for an account-wide reputation system. Still Nothing.
    People have been asking for a reworked PvP. Still Nothing.
    People have been asking for a new FED Tutorial. Still Nothing.
    People asked for a third faction, we got half of one.
    People have been asking for more Republic aliens (Suliban, Yridian etc). Still Nothing.
    People have been asking for the Typhoon Class (as playable). Still Nothing.

    ...need I continue?

    The day I see anyone flying around in a Cube will be the day I quit the game. If such a time is close to the game shutting down, then I'll have simply retired a little earlier than most.

    What about getting a Tholian Tarantula, or a ship with the same hull HP as Fake Sulu's ship from Terradome, armed with a unimatrix lance that has a special fleet ability where you get to call in 4 waves of 6 Tactical Cubes?

    Why so complex?
    all you need is a shuttle, because who wants to share the glory with her crew?
    and two abilities, immunity to everything and the I-Win button that blows up everything you target.

    I can't tell where the fore and aft sections on the cubes even ARE. As for a playable borg ship? No.

    Aren't those the new pets that are launched from that new Vo.. *cough*... 'Alien' Carrier that comes in the Delta Quadrant Duty officer packs from those marvelous new Voth Lock Boxes?

    We already have the Adapted Borg ships from the Tal Shiar lockbox and Lobi Store. We don't need Borg ships. After all, which end is the front?

    I guess sarcasm doesn't work well in text like it does in person. If they're gonna let people buy insane lockboxes that give an attack ship that can hit like a train, fly like a risian corvette, but tank as well a carrier, at least let people buy an op ship outright with real money.

    As much as I don't like lockbox's id really love to see a borg one, with 2 unique borg ships. Tired of people yapping about how they shouldn't be in game, though federation are flying 29th century ships, jem'hadar ships, ferengi, tholian..the list goes on. Its not going to hurt your gameplay at all, but others out there like myself want to have a borg ship to command.

    Play star trek legacy as a borg cube and tell me its good for playing with borg ships. In my experience they are TRIBBLE to play and best left not playable.

    The horse came back to life as a zombie, a borgified horse zombie. Now we must put it down before we are turned as well!! KEEELLLLLL IT!!!!!!

    :D. What's funny is that I bet you people would start begging for borg ponies if mounts were introduced to this game. First borg tribbles, then borg ponies. It's a slippery slope and mark my words, it will happen!

    About the only way they'd ever do a playable borg ship of any sort is doing it as a lock box thing and the games already turned into one big money sucking lock box
