This awesome new science vessel will be available in the C-Store in three packages:
Long Range Science Vessel [T6]
Standard single ship
Intrepid Pack
Includes:
Long Range Science Vessel Refit
Long Range Science Vessel Retrofit
Long Range Science Vessel [T6]
Standard Intrepid Interior
Season 7 Voyager Interior
Long Range Science Vessel [T6] + Voyager Bridge Interiors (LIMITED TIME ONLY!)
Includes:
Long Range Science Vessel [T6]
Standard Intrepid Interior
Season 7 Voyager Interior In addition to these three great options for purchasing the Pathfinder there will also be a $5 discount on every Pathfinder microtransaction from Thursday morning through Monday morning.
How does this discount work, can any dev clarify this?
I'm not sure if 3500 zen for the pathfinder + interiors is including the discount or without.
The $5 off is already reflected in the price. Other T6 ships cost 3000 zen, but the Pathfinder by itself is currently only 2500 zen. Expect it to go up to 3000 zen like the rest after Monday morning.
What will happen if you already own the intrepid refit? Will you still be able to get the 3 pack but cheaper?
Nope.
In fact, in the past if you already own part of a ship pack, you are locked out of buying the pack entirely and can only purchase each ship separately.

I can confirm this, as I already own the 2 previous C-Store Intrepid variants, and the single T6 Intrepid + Bridge was my only available choice...
the 3pack + bridges = 5000 zen
only the t6 + bridges = 3500
T6 ship only is 2500
With that, then, it seems kinda stupid not to package the bridges in a separate transaction worth 1000 Zen since the ship and the bridges is 3500 and the ship itself is 2500, especially for those of us who'd rather not pay $35 for a ship we don't want.
I inadvertently bought the single ship and now can never get the pack. Which is no bigger about the other ships as i have them already. THe real problem is that you get locked out of ever getting the interiors:
""By game design, if you have purchased a ship, any/all existing packs or bundles that includes that ship can no longer be purchased or seen as available from the C Store.
We appreciate your patience and continued patronage.""

Agreed. And for those who want just the interiors, such as yourself, they should re-enable the old Intrepid bridge-pack back from pre-F2P. Those who buy the new Voyager/Intrepid interiors by themselves would also get the older bridges as well.

(3500 zen is this rly the price for 1 ship and a bridge?) If so rly...where is the microtransaction discount of ~500zen?
only the t6 + bridges = 3500
T6 ship only is 2500

I just do hope as you say it will be available by another means at some point.
I have boycotted the c store for this very reason, though if it does become available in the near future I will have restored faith.
