Any word on that Federation carrier we picked a month or two ago?

Has there been any info on when it's coming out? Or what sorts of stats it has?

    I'm pretty sure that is was less than a month ago that the winner was chosen. It takes time for them to make a new ship. Be patient. Most likely we won't hear anything about the carrier until the day before and of its release. (The day before announces it, the day of gives the stats.)

    i tweeted Trendy asking about it a few days ago, she just told me "soon" so probably not 3-4 months :)

    I just hope they took some of the slight modification suggestions offered to 'polish' the looks of the carrier before it's set in stone.

    Here's to hoping that hanger pets get de-nerfed at the same time, current carriers might as well be launching glass kittens into space for how effective they are before getting mullered by any passing ship explosion.

    Hoping for Dreadnought carrier stats like the Narcine/Jem Dread, 2 Hangars and Frigate pet's.

    That is probably the only way I would buy a carrier, in the current game climate.

    It takes time to infuse that much ugly into one ship... be patient. :)

    I mean it's no simple task to design the down syndrome love child of the Odyssey and Chimera.
  • juanvenkatjuanvenkat Member Posts: 38 Arc User
    DS9 as a carrier with exploration cruiser as pets I'd might get.

    But I mean the queues are dead so yeah... another ship not to fly

    That is unlikely. With the Odyssey they released it on the Tribble Test Server like a week or two before they released it to the general public so that they could work out any bugs on the ship, and even then that was only the promotional version, they didn't release the actual GOOD version with consoles until about a month or two later, to say nothing of the Fleet Version.

    I'd just rather have hangar pets not be stupid. The AI on them sucks. I go into the mirror universe invasion event and my pets always end up attacking stuff on the other side of the starbase for some reason instead of staying with me and only attacking what I'm targeting. And they go far enough to be dropped from the hangar UI, making me think 1 or more got killed so I click the summon button and no new pets replaces them. Then I move to the other side of the map and my pets suddenly show back up in the HUD. It's frustrating.
    To my understanding there were more steps for the community to design the Omega ship that won the contest. They may be planning on letting us pick a boff station layout and/or console layout or something. So it wasn't a matter of just us choosing the appearance of the ship then they build it.

    Edit: Stupid cold weather makes me typo. :p

    I'll bet it's science based because all the original carriers were.

    I would love to have a carrier that has a lt. commander tac, lt, engi, ensign engi, commander sci, and lt commander universal. Give it a 4/3 set-up, like the Kar'fi and give it 4 tac console slots, 5 sci console slots and 2 engineer console slots and I will call it a fantastic ship.

    Other than the Odyssey, how many other ships have they done like that? None that I can think of. How long were the last 5 ships that were released on tribble before they were released? Or were they not? To my knowledge, the last several groups of ships were released with a blog announcing them, then a blog a few days later giving their stats. Usually that second blog being the day of or before their release.

    so the fed are finally getting a Dil carrier? YAY
  • dracounguisdracounguis Member Posts: 5,358 Arc User
    My bet is: Anniversary ship. So in Feb.

    Nah, an anniversary ship should be more lore-famous and symbolic. Carriers don't get much attention is STO and besides a solely Fed ship for then just wouldn't be appropriate.

    Maybe they pulled a "Moffat" and lost interest in that particular arc? pig-2.gif​​

    Chances are the boff layout and any coding for it was already in place before we chose the design. Essentially all we did was pick the skin of the ship and now they just need the ship design team to work so mesh & texture magic to match out design.
    So most work is probably done, I'd expect a release before Christmas.

    What in the world is that ship in ESD shipyard now? I couldn't match it to the persidio or the manticore and there's no vesta sitting beside it yet it looks like it has the vesta's style defelctor, could that actually be the omega?

    EDIT: Nevermind it's the Hestia Class, I overlooked that poor thing.

    We're makin' the ship. Takes time. Gotta do ship stuff. Clunk clunk clink clunk clink. That's the sound of ship making.
