other than the pattern, this ship has zero customization options...????really?.....we had 8 Designs, there was some serious discussion about those designs, likes and dislikes and so on, and now there are ZERO parts for customizations?.....omg allready starting to regret the buy, seriously wtf.......
EDIT: And whats Wrong with the Pets???

1x Dual Heavy Phaser Cannons (Fore)
1x Photon Torpedo Launcher (Fore)
2x Phaser Turrets (Aft)

I really hope that this was an Mistake and not a last Minute Nerf
True alters don't have a "main". Account wide unlocks for all unique event and mission rewards!!
I am absolutely PISSED OFF that the Callisto Light Escorts are smaller than a damn runabout, they are the same damn size as the delta flyers with twice the HP and firepower?!?!! WTF!? I was so excited at the idea of having real raiders with a federation ship that I went all out, jumped in and bought the Elite Callisto Light Escort. Just to quickly realize my mistake in wasting 25 dollars; 200,000 fleet credits; and 64,000 Dilithium. I should have looked at other players first before letting Cryptic do this again. Really, smaller than a runabout, does anyone at Cryptic know how immersion works? Why would a ship only be able to launch 2 smaller ships per bay if it can already launch 4 larger ships from the same bay?
So now that you guys have your hands on this ship, what kinds of builds are you all using with this? Because I just don't see how this ship works with that boff layout.

Cryptic has a funny way to doing things, don't they?
Well as I said before, would have bought it, but its silly that all the other designs aren't like dif costume pieces or something, specially since the alpha omega kit bash worked so much better...
sure hope we have 100% happy Jupiter customers now..

Daul Antiproton beams Fore, two Omni Antiproton and one Kinetic beam Aft. Haven't figured out the pets yet for I do have a few different Ultra Rare's but just got the Rare Light Escorts loaded right now. Takes care of them Borg but Traits for myself and my crew are making a difference. Its a Sci Carrier for sure.
Oh, for the record, Im very happy with this even with not able to change the looks other than colors, hope the Romulan and Klingons look as good as this.
have to say that the ship ingame looks much better than 2D , the broomsticks dont bother much either,
it seem to be very good model/designed.
Visually it looks very good
But from engineering part it just dont make sense, all the other aliens ships have plates protecting their broomsticks..
one thing that seems to be going on with the newer ships is that the starfleet arrow and the fleet logo are missing it just feels a pit strange to me that some of the ships have them but others do not, case in point the yamato class has both but the jupiter class dose not have any and the t6 veteran destroyer only has the starfleet arrow
The ship is FANTASTIC. Mine is performing very well. Do not regret the purchase, and thank you cryptic for sticking to your guns. Some people will never be satisfied with anything. Their loss.
Ah.. the Federation gets a T6 Heavy (Frigate launching) Carrier.. and yet nothing happens for the faction that was the first and before now ONLY FACTION to have an actual IN FACTION Heavy Carrier.
No T6 Vo'Quv to go beside this criminal travesty of a ship design. KDF - BOHICA (Bend Over, Here It Comes Again!)
Don't even start, you rommies.. you and your Frigate Hangar Dreadnought (Looking at YOU, Scimitar!)
Jupiter class is out now priced at 2400 zen,now we know the reason because it was going in the Black Friday sale
Usually they exclude new stuff from sales, but hey, I won't complain, although I have tons of other stuff I want too.
Well I suppose they just thought "it's only 100 less zen than otherwise let's do it"
If by 100 you mean 600, yes, maybe.
First weekend sale of new ships usually discounts 500 zen and this one is 600 zen since they used the 20% off Black Friday discount. So, "it's only 100 less zen than [usual first weekend sale of a new ship]."

I couldn't find the elite version just advanced as highest. Where are the elite ones?
First Run with mixed Mk 12 Gear no plan and fleet Calistos 13,6k dps in Infected.
So please please stop whining.
It has the potential for decent dps, it heals, it tanks and the beam hardpoints make it look sooooooo cool in fight...
And the Calistos do around 700 to 1,2k each additionaly if you know how to use them.
Its a great ship that has one overwhelming advantage
LOTS OF FUN
I wasn't sure about it when I saw it was so sci heavy, but I like carriers so I got it. I have to say I'm no longer disappointed. I really like it. I like the design, and it's actually really fun to fly. No regrets here.

Made me want to get my Mirror Vo'Quv out and give it a shot, oh the fun. Thanks for reminding me.
Thank you Cryptic!!! Love the ship and am getting the Fleet version ASAP!!! Running it with Phasers, Sunrise Set and Borg Weapon Set, Aegis Set and Fleet Core, 3 Fleet Neut +Turn consoles, Leech, Spire Phaser Console, Rom Rep Console. It performs admirally indeed, although I'd have expected it to have higher native resistances. Can only scratch 50% with 3 consoles!
"You don't want to patrol!? You don't want to escort!? You don't want to defend the Federation's Starbases!? Then why are you flying my Starships!? If you were a Klingon you'd be killed on the spot, but lucky for you.....you WERE in Starfleet. Let's see how New Zealand Penal Colony suits you." Adm A. Necheyev.
i stuck up a set of suggested stats for a unique romulan sci/tac carrier in (Star Trek Online>Feedback>Romulan Discussion>ships that the romulan faction are missing) and even suggested having a console that activated a singularity power for your hanger pet depentant on the type giving scope for implementation of other romulan hanger pest as it is very clear from their technology and behaviour the romulans are more science/tactiacally orientated.

I figured that the whine-o-rama would have burned out by now. I guess not.
