    Plus we need to assume that the X is more of a combat ship, thus that huge saucer is not full of 1,000 families riding around the galaxy for the fun of it. That means far more space to hold a lot of other "stuff." :)

    It will be interesting to see if it does get the 1 Hanger Geko talked about as a possibility.

    alot other stuff? hmm....... ORION WOMEN?!

    shouldlook at that new gal-x pic now on facebook :-O
    That is not a new picture. That is a picture Trevor took in space - it is part of his Player Spotlight series.

    Oops! I take it back! That is a new picture.

    Nice! :)
    STO is about my Liberated Borg Federation Captain with his Breen 1st Officer, Jem'Hadar Tactical Officer, Liberated Borg Engineering Officer, Android Ops Officer, Photonic Science Officer, Gorn Science Officer, and Reman Medical Officer jumping into their Jem'Hadar Carrier and flying off to do missions for the new Romulan Empire. But for some players allowing a T5 Connie to be used breaks the canon in the game.

    I adjusted my post. I thought you were talking about the one from yesterday. :)

    The one form today looks like it is using the Venture skin.

    yeah it looks pretty cool. I think a lot of galaxy-x fans will be extremely happy when it gets to holodeck :)

    The hints (including the one Brandon just left) clearly point to the Galaxy-X. Perhaps its saucer separation is finally happening?

    I'm hoping against hope that it all somehow comes together in a TNG bundle.
    You're right. The work here is very important.

    To be honest I'm hoping it's either included in a fleet version or in the existing C-Store. I hate multibuying for one ship, but hey :) We'll see eh?

    I don't own the Galaxy-X, but I agree that the most fair thing to do would be to just update the existing C-Store version.

    A fleet version would also be an acceptable compromise, but no one should have to buy the same ship twice.
    You're right. The work here is very important.

    I hope that means more Fleet/Upgraded ships - not only Gal X.

    I'm thinking that there will be an Arc class as part of an Arc pack (sort of like Steam with the Steamrunner class). You can see my speculation in the Federation Shipyards part of the forums.

    And I think that they'll introduce a 'Fail' class, with a Noob subclass, particularly suited to being catastrophically bad at STFs.

    From the link:
    Saucer Separation – Saucer Separation now uses the new separation technology as seen on the Odyssey. You can now separate while in motion, and your returning saucer will match your ship customization. The sequence is generally smoother and richer. You can even continue to fire while separating.


    Galaxy Dreadnought Improvements – We have updated the Galaxy Dreadnought stats to bring it in line with other Dreadnoughts.
    New BOff seating – The Galaxy Dreadnought’s Ensign Tactical BOff seat will become an Ensign Universal BOff seat.
    Hangar Bay – The Galaxy Dreadnought will now have one Hangar Bay Slot, equipped by default with Type 8 Shuttles. It can equip any standard Federation hanger pet.
    Saucer Separation – The Galaxy Dreadnought will finally support Saucer Separation. The Galaxy Dreadnought does not come with the Saucer Separation Console, but if you own one, you can now use it on the Dreadnought. The separated Saucer pet of a Galaxy Dreadnought has a more tactical flavor than the standard Galaxy Saucer pet. It is equipped with Dual Phaser Cannons, and a mini-Phaser Lance.
    Phaser Lance Wide Beam – When the Saucer is separated, the Galaxy Dreadnought’s Phaser Lance standard beam becomes a Wide Beam attack (like a sawed-off shotgun). Damage is only slightly reduced, but the affect area is much larger.
    All existing Galaxy Dreadnoughts will be automatically fixed-up; however, you will not be automatically granted a Type 8 shuttle pet. You can either purchase one in the Hangar Pet store for Energy Credits, or dismiss your Dreadnought and reclaim a new one which will be fully outfitted with a Type 8 shuttle.


    Set Bonus – The Antimatter Spread Console and Saucer Separation console will enjoy a 2 piece set bonus. Equipping both on a ship will grant you:
    +20 Starship Starship Hull Plating skill
    +20 Starship Armor Reinforcement skill
    +1 Turn Rate bonus


    Antimatter Spread on Saucer – As always, when equipping the Antimatter Spread console on any ship that supports saucer separation (any Galaxy, Odyssey, or Prometheus Variant), the separated Saucer pet will gain the Antimatter Spread ability. This bonus will now also apply to the Galaxy Dreadnought.


    Fleet Galaxy Dreadnought – The Fleet Galaxy Dreadnought will be available to any Fleet with a Tier 4 Shipyard. Like all Fleet ships, the Fleet Galaxy Dreadnought will enjoy the standard +10% Hull Hit Points and Shields, and a 10th console slot. It will come standard with an integrated Phaser Lance, and Hanger Slot, but will not come with a Cloaking Device Console (if you own a Cloaking Device Console Mod, you can equip it on the Fleet Galaxy Dreadnought). The Fleet Galaxy Dreadnought will be available for 5 Fleet Modules or 1 Fleet Module if you already own the C-Store Galaxy Dreadnought.


    New Galaxy Bundle – The Tier 4 Galaxy Exploration Cruiser Refit, Tier 5 Galaxy Exploration Cruiser Retrofit, and Tier 5 Galaxy Dreadnought will be available as a bundle for 4000 Zen. If you purchase the Galaxy Bundle, you can claim the Galaxy Bridge for Free in the C-Store.

    Please make a separate thread about this, people need to know about this.

    And welcome to the STO forums. A pretty reasonable place on the internet.
