Project Building Starship (like Fleet Project)

Hello Dev's wath would you think of giving us a project just like the building of the starbase fleet but instead it would be Building our own Star Ship

by tath i propose We could be allowing to build our own Ship Spec but with a Min/Max you would allow us. For instance we could have 9 weapons slot but we would have to sacrifice a console slot or shield modifier...

Wath i am proposing is For instance a cruiser have 8 weapon slot and for instance 11 console slot with certain amount of hull and slow turning rate and go on... Tath result would be 100% ''resources'' and we would take that 100% resources but redistrubute it

For the Design you could offer us some template

And finaly it could be a long term project you put your ship to the dry dock to build it and if we want to modify it we would have Cool down on the star ship by puting Ec, Dil Personal Star ship Marks and Doff and go on... and the ship would not be avaible when it is on Refit or on building like a cool down ... a little like the reputation project .

Of course like i said you would put the Min\Max resources for instance unable to have more than 10 weapon slot AND IT IS JUST AN EXAMPLe.. Cryptic would decide The possibilties MIN/MAX on wath but imagine we could sacrifice 2 science slot for A secondary Shield or dual warp core... i mean the idea would go on and on. of course we would put the resource in the project but i think it would be intersting to see taht happening....


Wath about you guys, would you be interested in investing in a project like this? do you think it would be a good idea?

apologize for my grammar my first born language is not english i hope my message will be understable.

Respectfully

    i think they said that this might happen in r&d someday...
    obvious question is if i can build my own starship why should than buy any other?

    While it seems a nice idea, to balance it out properly will be a mess and horrible amount of work (and truth be told, that isn't being done well enough already with the fixed content Cryptic creates themselves), and seems to me it is even more putting the balance towards those who can afford it through either money or lots of gameplay (not that I'm not one of them, but that's besides the point).
    So - no, just no.

    Can you imagine the field day that the min/maxers would have?

    40k tried something similar years ago with a 'build your own vehicle' article in White Dwarf, and literally nobody used it to make fair and balanced vehicles.

    The idea of a PvP optimized gunboat packing eight AP arrays and 8 AP damage boost consoles makes me giggle but I wouldn't think it would be fun in the long run.

    I say, sure, throw in every ship class/part into the skin options, and as long as it's really no more than a Tier 4 vanity item, we could see something like this. It really shouldn't seriously be considered to compete as an endgame ship, though, otherwise, it would detract from the sale of C-Store ships.

    Never going to happen unless you're charged an arm and a leg to do so.

    I would pay ANYTHING to build my own ship.


    I would love to be able to build a guardian T6 fleet cruiser with 8 weapon slots,
    4 Eng slots
    3 science slots
    4 tactical slots
    1.2 shield mod but 20% reduced hull hp
    custom and more tactical orriented boff slots


    I would litterally pay:
    1m+ dilithum
    1-5 ship modules (those zen ones) 1 if you already own the guardian
    bunch of r&d mats
    doffs
    and so forth!



    Seriously! I would LOVE this! A long term project like this would be amazing. Gives reason to log in everyay!
