    "Now you can give us even more money for ships you already have, that we never bothered to give extra skins for because **** you we can just take more of your money this way instead!"

    Yeah, no thanks. Will laugh when this ****ty model finally crashes and burns this company to the ground.

    So, if I do not own a Galaxy variant, will I still have access to the skin?

    Sir, I LOVE YOUR SIG!!
    ;)

    Not throwing any money at PWE anytime soon.

    PS - I fully support a T6 Nova, fixing the Nova skins. I am also rooting for a T6 Science Cruiser, that can use Nova/Rhode Island skins.
    T6 Nova/Rhode Island, T6 Oberth & T6 Constellation are needed. Also needed a T6 Science Cruiser, that can wear any Science or Cruiser skin.

    Remember when T5U came out and people were complaining about it saying they would gladly pay full price for their cannon ships to get full T6 stats?

    And now exactly that happens and people still complain. :confused:

    It's kind of silly, yeah. Right up to the launch of these ships, the Federation Shipyard forum in particular has been loaded with threads about ships that need the T6 treatment. So there are definitely players who are interested.

    There are even more threads now of course, calling for the next batch of ships to be refit.
    "Now you can give us even more money for ships you already have, that we never bothered to give extra skins for because **** you we can just take more of your money this way instead!"

    Or, you can just not buy the ships, and let the players who do want these T6 updates have their fun with 'em. No one's forcing you to buy the new ships, and no one's invalidating the original ships. Getting the T6 variant with the extra shiny bits is entirely a choice.

    No need to cry foul over it.

    So i just purchased the Andromeda class galaxy, some may say that was a bad idea some may say its good. personally i like it. my real complaint though is that there does indeed seem to be a flooding of "new" ships on the market but i'm finding it a little hard finding a bridge layout i like for this ship because it looks so different. so theres my 2 cents: WE NEED MORE BRIDGES....you know to go with all these "new" ships.

    My Galaxy-X does not get her advanced Teck upgrade anymore. because now i have suposetly only 2 of 3 parts of the set. Well i have all three. The antimatter spread, the saucer seperation. the cloacking device... Just because you introduce an new and not needed T 6 version of teh Galaxy class(Ugly as sh*** by the way) it gives you nozt the right to change stats i paid maoney for.

    It was never a three piece set before. The cloaking device was not part of the Galaxy set, they simply expanded the set to have a third console and another set bonus for having all three pieces. The existing pieces you have will provide the same functionality they did before.

    The cloaking console was never a part of the set. You remember incorrectly.

    Yes it was. When you bought the retrofit, the venture and the dreadnought and installed all thre universal consoles you where provided with a boost revard. In HP and Dp's Aand no it does not. now i need the stupid shield cosnole of the ugly useless Andromeda... BTW: I think STO should get sued for using that name on a ship like that.

    Ok, I did get it wrong that the set bonus has been changed slightly. It now provides +2 Turn Rate (same as before), +10 All Damage Resistance Rating (before it was +20 Starship Starship Hull Plating skill, though Damage Resistance is usually more beneficial than a little extra HP), +10 Engine Power Setting (before it was +20 Armour Reinforcement so you do lose out there on resistance to Kinetic or Physical damage slightly).

    However the cloak was for sure, 100%, definitely, completely and utterly, not a part of the set.
    For proof, here's the dev blog from the revamp of the Galaxy Dreadnought, you can clearly see it listed as a two piece set.

    If you want the three piece set, it also doesn't increase your HP or DPS, it gives you +10% Maximum Shield Capacity and +10% Shield Regeneration.

    The Andromeda is awesome.

    Sadly it makes the Exploration Cruiser Retrofit even more worthless than it already was. I'm debating just discharging my fleet Galaxy-R. :(

    Heh... I like these ships (besides the D'khellra which has awkward skis for nacelles) but just how many 30-dollar ships and expensive 3- and 9- packs can you sell before people get tired of this TRIBBLE, Cryptic? Personally, I stopped even considering buying any new ships when T6 hit, because I know that Cryptic will probably just bump up to T7 when thy run out fo T6 options, so I'm not guaranteed to be getting what I paid for. (An endgame ship.)

    Just to be clear, i will be holding off on the pilot ships (this thursday?) due to this concern. Too many new ships in too short of a time. This whole situation has actually made me reconsider my zen purchase schedule. Already the t5 zen ships are mostly worthless, i can fly t6 ships at the same time, why waste a upgrade when i can just go for the traits.

    I have an idea for what Season 11 should be; Season 11: The Big Bug Fix.
    I have not been able to read my bug tickets in over a year, not even the tickets about not being able to see my tickets.
    I find the drama of your signature proof of your immaturity, this means you, DR whiners.
