Another reasonable option to address this issue would be equipping the C-Store variants with different proton weapons each. For example, a tactical variant could come equipped with a Proton DBB, an engineering variant could come equipped with a Proton Beam Array, while a science variant could have a Proton Turret. All of which could only be used on Dyson Science Destroyers, much like Vesta's Aux DHC. The only problem would be finding proper/useful tactical consoles to buff the Proton damage output, but at least it would be a start.
since you can reclaim equipment from c-store ships via discharging and reclaiming this would add value to the c-store variants (which btw are going to be the Strategic, Surveillance, and Reconnaissance varients according to the in game consoles tooltips like the Vesta variants most likely)
Like with Worf's FE for the Obelisk, first a dangling carrot and then the money...
Of course Why on God's green earth would PWE or Cryptic Not do it that way ? their Ship packs are Overpriced and players pay it regardless,but as for the Dyson Ships or ships you
have to actually Work for and grind for it also promotes players to be Lazy and buy it so they don't need to Grind for it.
It simply goes to show players that Don't want to have to actually Earn their Ship by working for it by grinding for it they just wait for it to go into the C-Store which is why i don't bother giving my Money to Cryptic or PWE why should i really? they Promote Lazyness why grind for the item when they can be lazy and buy it because they Know it will be put into the C-Store anyways.:rolleyes:
The Dyson Science Destroyers, across all three factions, are nearly identical ships. They have small differences, but essentially do mostly the same things with the same Boff layout.
I... just cannot picture Cryptic charging more than once for this. I know people bring out BranFlakes quotes to justify this... but I find that quote very prone to interpretation. For myself, I kind of see this more like the Temporal Science Vessel/Destroyer approach. You get a box, and when you open it, you get a variant tied to the faction of the character you're playing.
As I see it, you'd have to visit the Z-Store, look up the Dyson Science Destroyer bundle or its three variants separately. Once you buy those of your choice, you'd account-unlock them across all three factions. Then you could go on whatever Vice-Admiral character, claim the ships, get some boxes in your inventory, open them and VOILA new ship with unique console now available to you.
Any chance this bundle might include costumes like the Vesta or scimitar bundle do? Or will the bundle be more along the lines of the Odyssey pack and just feature 3 of the exact same ship?
3 versions each putting that almighty 10th console in a different slot, eng, tac, sci, etc.
That's why there's 3 per faction. That's why you have to pay 150usd to get all of them. You are getting nine ships total. Not even counting the unique consoles
Ok, I for one am glad for the Buy option regarding the Anniversary ship; I don't (yet) have a reliable internet connection to play STO every day. I did grind most of it while the connection was still good, but I finished off by buying the last 80-100 Q's. Irks me that I ended up with several extra Q's, but after buying a life time I have the room to store them.
A Trill, a Gorn, a Jem'Hadar, Bejoran and a Voth walk into a bar, and the Bartender asks "What is this a Joke?"
"Nope, just my away team" the trill replies before ordering a round for the bar.
Well in that case, here's how it works: You buy one 5000 Zen 3-pack for the faction you want. If you want all 2.5 faction's ships, you buy each faction (or pseudo-faction) package.
That's 5000 Zen for the Fed package, 5000 Zen for the Klingon package, and 5000 Zen for the Romulan package for a total of 15000 Zen and 9 ships.
Dont you love his simi-veiled passive-aggressive comments that the Romulans are not a faction?

It is that way because it is a 10 console ship.

Can't wait to buy it
where have you seen all this?
