Looking at the Vengeance class, I still can't shake the feeling I had since I first saw it in "Into Darkness", as in I recall seeing it on a star trek starfleet command mod website around 2006. Kelvin Klingons look kinda hirogen-y. ah well, if it makes people happy and attracts them to the game, more power to them.

The ability to purchase and fly the Kelvin Timeline Intel Dreadnought Cruiser [T6] will be restricted only to Federation characters. However, Klingon and Romulan captains will instead be offered the ability to purchase a Kelvin Dreadnought Package from the Lobi Store which includes both the Console and the Starship Trait unlock for a lower price than that of the full starship.
Not sure how I feel on this one. On one hand the wimping out on giving Klingons and Romulans a ship is sad, on the other hand selling traits directly my be a solution to part of the faction power disparity. A lack of prices in the blog, it will be interesting to see how much of the ship/console/trait package price is the ship itself!
I still think that putting something with each lockbox introduction for sale via Dil would help moderate the market a bit.
Coming soon. Kelvin Lockbox II Lockboxes Beyond! Containing the USS Franklin, the Krall Swarm Ships, the new JJ-prise, female uniforms with /sleeves/. And those awesome jackets from Beyond.
I would expect the lockbox be called the Beyond Lockbox actually

If they did that, they would end up going to Infinity and Beyond Lock Boxes... I kinda want to see it happen...
With each passing day I wonder if I stepped into an alternate reality. The Cubs win the world series. Donald Trump is President. Britain leaves the EU. STO gets a dedicated PvP season. Engineers are "out of control" in STO.
The Kelvin Box isn't going to work like the Infinity Prize Box.
Which ever Toon opens the KT Box will determine the Faction of the T-6 Ship.
When Cryptic actually adds the KT lockbox prizes to the Infinity Lockbox, some time in the future, then you might be able to pick a particular ship.
There were boxes in the past that had different contents based on the faction of the opening toon, like those cross-faction concole boxes. So, that's why I ask, I wasn't even thinking about that Infinity box.
Well that settles it I knew it was only a matter of time before the jj rubbish was added to the game when they announced the Kelvin timeline. and I think it is now time to leave this game as I have nothing to do with the universe and would rather now see the craprise or the vengance in the game and as for the other ships there so ugly. I think that this game has run its c0ourse for me and i have logged on only once in 3 months and quite frankly it has only been for a couple of minutes. I may come back in the future if something really good but as for the new expansion I won't be here for it my hard drive will be used for something that doesn't support JJtrek. I'll get my trek fix watching the series on netflix and playing star trek timelines

I kind of surfed through the last several pages, but didn't see an answer to a question I had:
In the blog post, they stated that the [T6] Kelvin Timeline Intel Dreadnought Cruiser can only be purchased by Federation characters, but Klingon and Romulan characters can purchase the console/trait of this ship at a reduced amount. I don't have a huge interest in the cruiser itself except for the console/trait, and I play a Fed character. Can my Fed character--like the Klingon and Romulan players--also buy just the Kelvin Dreadnought Package (console/trait) without having to buy the ship?
Can my Fed character--like the Klingon and Romulan players--also buy just the Kelvin Dreadnought Package (console/trait) without having to buy the ship?
Ah, the salty tears of a Fed unable to get something Klingon. How I have missed these.
personally i hate the new jj universe, but i really want a lockbox ship with federation design so im cool with the new sparkly box.
the only problem i have is that those are freaking old technologies from kirk's time... how the hack is this edge technology when is 200ish years old?
this the best exemple of potato logic
The thing I was just thinking about that bothers me is that in order for my federation characters to get the trait and console from the Intel dreadnaught I have to spend the larger amount amount of lobi and also master the ship up. For my Klingons I just have to spend the lower amount of lobi and have them instantly. The trait and console pack should be available for everyone.
Man, just about everyone is going ballistic over the Abrams-Verse Constitution-class. Guys, I think you all need to consider how close Cryptic is going to the *official* movie scale of this ship. Because, if they're sticking close, then this ship will be more like a Galaxy-class in size than the Connie we know and love. Also, it's classified as a Heavy Command Cruiser. I don't know about you, but that sounds much bigger than the in-game Constitution-class' Cruiser.
Yep. Dev posted a comparison on Twitter between the ToS and JJ connies.

Here, look, we give you a new ship! It looks exactly like the one you already had, but a bit blown up in size.
The K'Vort is best forgotten about. Kinda like the uglier Fed kitbashes that we avoided getting so far, too.
[/unpopular opinion]
That is why I call my BOP the K'Vort. So it won't be forgotten. It wouldn't have to look like the small one. They could make some changes. As for the other ships. The New Orleans is one of my favorites. That is one good looking ship!

I could fill a whole website with my hatred for the Abramsverse AND another one with the audacity to give us that fake-TRIBBLE giant abomination instead of the real Constitution. But I will just breathe deeply, hope for a decent-looking disruptor compression pistol and wonder whatever gave you the idea to make a set out of consoles from three different factions that then BOOST F****** PHASERS AND PHOTON TORPEDOES???? No, breathe deeply. I'm not even interested in any of those ships. But the design decision is just sooo dumb. For Gre'thor's sake let it boost Phasers + Disruptors and Photon + Plasma Torpedoes.

The KT-ships will come with faction-appropriate bridges i.e. the KTstution will get the bridge seen in the movies, the Vengeance will get the Vengeance bridge. The D-4x and T'Laru will both come with Abramsverse-inspired bridges for the appropriate faction.

There is one out there already, well close to it. The K'Vort. However they refuse to bring it to the game.
