I'm not the only one seeing this, right? I think the art team should maybe consider lighting a few more of those shapes on the aft end of the saucer to obscure that rather unfortunate shape.​​

    The picture becomes even more graphic when you factor in those dotted blue lines going down either side from the top point :D

    You mean the way the light-blue lines form a shape that looks like an Astika? A bit weird, but I don't see what's wrong with it.

    It is a TRIBBLE, no doubt. It is to compensate for all those barely dressed orion females. Agh! I knew from the begin. This game is sex.

    Looks more like one of them funny G-Place Thingy's to me.

    Certainly would get my attention.

    Maybe we could get "My Ship is a Phallus" threads added to the FCTs?

    I know, it's supposed to have an official Dev response to be added, but what is there for them to say? "Yes, the Scryer looks like... Err... What of it?"

    Irony at its best. And the funny part is, sisteric doesn't even know what I'm talking about :D

    Hello Boys, corporations have been using phallic symbols to sell to the male population since... forever. Get over it. You more than likely were drawn to that ship on a subliminal level. Many cultures world over have no issues with phallic symbolism, in fact, most embrace it.

    Here are some recent examples to sell you boys junk with your junk;
    1. Bread
    2. Beer
    3. Pizza
    4. Hardward

    Don't you want to get a beer and pizza and go wrench on your car right now? Anyway I'm sure the design team didn't put it there by mistake.

    Hey, difference of opinions on things is one thing. Looking for symbolism is another... o:)

    There's a lot of things wrong with that picture. I'm seeing Fire at will, multiple copies of the same ability on different trays.

    Where were you when they released the Voth Bulwark? That thing is straight off the sex toys page of some dev's web favorites, no special lighting required:

    http://sto.gamepedia.com/Voth_Bulwark_Dreadnought_Cruiser

    https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rabbit_vibrator

    That one was a huge 'eff ewe' to the players who were simply dying to have it, even when they just lost all their active rep rewards to come up with the system they are about to replace here very soon.

    Bottom line? No one cares, and they are going to keep doing it because players will keep wanting these things.

    On the one hand... the owner of this ship could, and should, be proud. On the other, the accompanying bits are the size of hazelnuts... comparatively speaking..
