    As an Avid KDF Main player I think the Typhoon and Jupiter would be a great addition. Personally I would've added the Jupiter as a "Real" Fed carrier counter to the Vo'quv and the Typhoon Could have been the oddys Fleet variant.. Sad thing is I doubt they'll be playable.. They are just placeholder NPC ships. I would pay money for them though :P

    Doesn't look horrible I suppose from the top side...but I absolutely hate how that deflector looks on the bottom...So I suppose I could go either way...depending on the stats of the ship if it were released. :P

    It's utterly awful. Worse than the JJprise, IMO, which is really saying something.

    This. Though the Scryer ha to come in a close 2nd.

    the scryer isn't really ugly, it has a pretty much standard fed science-ship look(assuming you give it the white hull and close that gap in the saucer).

    sure its not pretty, but its not ugly either.

    and its pretty obvious people only like the typhoon because its a "battleship", same thing with the jupiter.

    Ehh...I don't think the Typhoon is to horrible except for the deflector...the Jupiter on the other hand I think is ugly as sin and it would be my choice for ugliest ship in the game.

    Yeah, the Federation needs yet another ship....ok not really.

    How about finally getting the KDF a dreadnaught before handing out yet MORE fed ships?

    Or how about that Negh'var refit we were promised?

    What about the Romulan version of the Flagship (Bortasqu/Oddessy)?

    Romulan science ship or carrier maybe?



    But if you really insist, here you go.

    Baffling that they haven't released this ship yet. The design is there, all they have to do is give it stats, release it, and profit.

    To those that don't like it, cool.. to each their own, but they should absolutely release this ship. Those that don't like it just don't buy it.

    Right now, a T6 Typhoon is the only thing that would get me to open my wallet again.

    Even if you're okay with the design, your standards can't possibly be so low that you'd accept a model that painfully low-quality... could they?

    ...then again, of all things, you're asking for the Typhoon, so... yeah.

    The typhoon screams "placeholder" all over. In my opinion, the design and function have long been replaced by the Oddyssey. It could work as a T6 Oddyssey-skin, but nothing more.

    What we really want is a T6 Scimitar with a OP ship trait. :):)

    Yes and, we shall name that trait [Complete Devastation].

    1min recharge rate
    0.5 sec. activation time

    Allows player to unleash all weapons fire (energy weapons, torpedoes, mines) at a x2 fire rate +10 CRTH & CRTD, with absolutely no WP costs for 30secs.

    Hey, you asked right?

    I wish they'd remaster the Typhoon as an alternate skin for a T6 Avenger, then remaster and release the Jupiter as a T6 Federation Carrier or Science/Support Tank.

    The Romulan D'D was low quality since it was an NCP ship. So they had to give it a face lift making it more detailed to make it playable.

    So it can be a really nice ship if they put the time into it. And create a couple skins for it.

    That#s why I also want to see a Jupiter. Creat an actual nice-looking ship.

    It could be the only ship that might qualify as some sort of Federation carrier.

    The Jupiter is my go-to ship for the hypothetical "Logistics" specialization ships. An Engineering/Logistic Carriers that is designed as a small starbase, basically. Send out deep into unexplored space, sending out Federation probes and drones for intiial surveys. it would also feature a transwarp beacon that would allow other ships to transwarp to it, either from deep inside Federation territory to "jump-start" an exploration mission, or as a safe port for ships that complete long range exploration missions - probably based on the initial surveys made by drones.

    The ship is ugly. But there are some interesting design elements that I think a good ship artist could take from it and make it look... maybe not beautiful, but interesting and compelling enough.

    If both are ever made playable, it's obvious that they'll get a good once-over. Much in the same manner as the Scimitar when it became playable.


    The playable versions would look far better than the NPC ships. It boggles the mind that the "haters" and "antis" don't stop to realize this.

    The funny part here is that I've seen a lot of fans of both ships scream "Noooooooo!!!" when updates to the ship models are mentioned, they want them just as they currently are. :P :D

    Well I can't speak for the rest of you, but I want it the way it is because it "feels" like a Battleship. Unlike the Odyssey this ship looks like it can take a beating.

    Maybe update it hulls materials. Other than that, it's fine.

    I don't know....the Galaxy-X looks pretty bad in the standard Galaxy skin, but it's much more pleasng to the eye if you use the Venture skin with Type 6 hull material, looks really really good IMHO.

    My word, I would rather be stuck flying around in this piece of jolly **** ---> http://i62.tinypic.com/162r8n.jpg

    While having one of these placed up my bottom ---> http://i59.tinypic.com/25k6b2v.jpg

    Then see a playable Typhoon or/and Jupiter class smeared all over STO like http://i61.tinypic.com/qs1kps.jpg

    Best lube up first then.

    You can put the ugly baby in a teddybear outfit, it's still an ugly baby. ;)
