    Well I'm glad to see the T6 ships weren't OP. I'm going to let some fleet mates buy them first. Plus I can't bear to fly the "toilet" or "pizza cutter" ... Why oh why do they hate science?

    we wont really know that until experienced builders get ahold of the ships though.
    too bad there wasnt even an acknowledgement that there are 2 kdf ships too.

    TRUE. I did want to see the KDF and Romulan ships.

    The only ship I wanted to see was the Scryer, so, of course, that is the one it crashed on. :)
    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.

    At least it got far enough to be able to see the absence of the sensor analysis button. I guess this will be the only science ship to not have it even though it has sci ship penalties.

    Still waiting to be able to use forum titles

    Today is FED DAY today.. I was glad someone has listen to me ask how these new T6 perform in space instead of being displayed on schematics and drawings. But it wasn't too clear on what the Escort came with with stock weapons/impulse/deflector/warp an etc. To me it was AP being used. None of these ships seem to have 5/5 weapons max out of the consoles for SCI/ENG/TAC. I am looking for one of those type of ships. This octagon shielding looks neat but can be weaken though I see. If you didn't see the live stream you can see the new escort being gone KABOOM! ;)

    I was thinking the same thing. I saw some obvious weaknesses in the ships and a good Fleet T-5U can spank the pants off the escort and probably the other two.

    So, no new ship for me just Fleet upgrades of what I have. I am saving so much money now. Thank you Cryptic!

    well i have to go.
    it would be great to at least see one working code come out of one of there twitchstreams someday, even if it is for some fed uniform ill never use lol

    What was the code for uniform? No Red Matter device? Then no one got the Logitech G100s either. Which is very good mouse. As the for the new T6 ships seems to be some extra perks in shielding tech then most of the other features weren't shown yet. SCI vessel only had 3/3 like the Voyagers slots for weapons also.

    Still don't have a code so we have no idea what it is for.

    All T4 onwards Sci ships do have a 3/3 weapon layout. Only the Dyson ones can activate the fused 4th front weapon.

    Are these recorded? I came in on the tail end of the Eclipse and wanted to see the Phantom

    Well today's/tonight's live-stream was good despite the connections issues after the first hour.

    Smirk & Trendy showcased the Fed Phantom & Eclipse in a, spoiler alert, Kazon battle. Then when beginning to showcase the Scryer connection issues hit.

    They were only able to give out 2/3rds of the mystery prize code via the live-stream. No other prizes were given-out so do not know about the Logitech mouse or anything else.

    The image of Smirk going BOFFless while piloting the new T6 ships in a TOS Captain's robe might haunt me forever (shivers).

    The new code, I was guessing it was going to be a blanket-code, will be reissued I'm sure by some method. A few were supposedly communicating with Smirk & maybe Trendy via Twitter, but sadly they were being drummed out by the Trolls spamming the sorts of: "Where's my code", "I want a Red Matter Capacitor", & placing fake ARC codes into chat. All of this being done usually by the same people every minute or so.

    Many thanks to those geneuinely trying to help the others & not just there to try to scavenge for something free then whine till it happens.

    It was one of the more complicated livestreams recently, but these things happen. Hopefully they'll do their best in trying to make-up for it even though I'm sure it wasn't their fault.

    When they first arrived on the scene, I was a heavy critic of Smirk and Trendy. After watching them on Livestream, I have been completely won over. Smirk and Trendy are very professional and humorous individuals. Thanks for keeping it fun.

    I think Trendy is a little shy.

    To each his own.

    I thought it was straight up painful to sit through hours of exactly the same gameplay, having to listen to smirk too, only to not have the code you were waiting for work.

    Classic cryptic if I ever saw it.

    I'd compliment the idea of doing a stream but the straight up pure sales pitch for the new ships makes me physcially ill, desperate x 56^32 seems like.

    Everything stands and falls with those I guess or the acceptance of fake ships in general moving forward

    Attended the livestream. Found it useful, but did not get the code. Also, never found any place to type it in. Looked all over so not sure what I would have done with it if I had gotten it :) Thanks for the effort guys :)...

    I have to agree with the poor feedback on the live stream. I wasn't impressed! Seeing the ships is one thing but sitting and watching someone play through the boring grind is worse than playing through the boring grind. I hope that whatever build Smirk was on gets that bug fixed where you can't exit the map also. If you prevent me from leaving the map on such a boring mission on Holodeck, I can guarantee you I will not play through it. In the future, maybe have a video to introduce through the live stream instead so the content we are tuning in to see gets shown in a way that doesn't cause the players Tourette's.

    Looking for a new fleet? Drop by the in-game chat channel, "tenforwardforum", and say hi to the members of A Fleet Called Ten Forward (Fed) and The Orion Pirates (KDF). If you already have a fleet you are happy with, please feel free to drop by our chat channel if you are looking for a friendly bunch of helpful people to socialize with.

    That was "Mirror Universe", their internal test shard, I believe.

    Holodeck and Tribble should be running better.
    Everywhere I look, people are screaming about how bad Cryptic is.
    What's my position?
    That people should know what they're screaming about!

    Hey everyone,
    Sorry for the issues today regarding our connection and the untimed disconnect we experienced across the board.

    When we got back our internet connection, we had gone past our window for livestreaming and couldn't continue the show.

    Today's R&D Pack code is broken and will not redeem, so we have to send it back to the drawing board and find out what happened with it. I am hoping to get this fixed asap, and to try and see if we can get a makeup created for everyone who missed out today.

    I will update this thread with news as I receive it from my teammates.

    Thank you again to everyone who made today's maintenance livestream. We had a great turn out and a lot of fun before the Kazon ruined everything. Now I know how Janeway felt.
