    Well I guess we finally have that T6 Connie we've all been raging about.

    Shame it's locked behind these packs though.
    There's a first time for everything... Give the noobs a break, they're still learning. Don't hate, help.

    We have been demanding a T5/6 Connie for YEARS! About time CBS gave in!

    Well played Cryptic/PWE, well played. I know you will get a lot of stick for selling the Alternate Connie before giving the false impressions that the Prime Connie won't come so they may as well buy the the AR.

    A very good business move, it's a shame all the arrogant entitled players who think they have been ripped off will be storming in to complain.

    May I also point out the fantastic business move of placing behind a gamble.

    This isn't sarcasm, I am genuinely impressed...

    Are you f*cking serious? There's no way these old, outdated and completely useless ships should have ever reached Tier 6.
    There's no need to do things like that just because some **** are demanding it, intelligent people should know that these ships are far to weak for the 25th century.

    Been keeping an eye on STO news while playing WoW and getting ready for Legion ... I've wanted a T6 Excalibur for years, but I ain't getting it this way.

    Maybe tomorrow there will be news that takes my interest away from WoW ...

    We're finally getting the t6 TOS ships, but of course it's in one of these stupid R&D promos. Guess I better start saving.

    whoa nellie. I'm satisfied with the Ranger/Paladin, but this will be quite expensive for aficionados out there. Kudos for bringing it to the game at last though.

    Why shouldn't there be? So many of us were hoping that a T6 connie would be tied into the anniverary. Not locked behind a lottery pack.

    Happy anniversary - now play our lottery for the most iconic ship in the franchise.

    An endgame level TOS Connie is perhaps the most requested ship in the history of the game. Why would Cryptic/PWE give it away for free?

    You can sell keys on the exchange and use the EC to buy the ship. Zero gambling involved.

    THey should've put it in the c-store or as part of the Temporal agent bundle not in this lotters. Even IF you sell keys on the exchange it will probably cost far more than 100$. This is an epoc ship, the most requeted ship for years and now its bound to this lottery.or only available for very few players who can affort it.

    Just how did this happen? For years, they always ever said “no T6 Connie”. I really want to know the details :D

    They're doing EXACTLY what they should have done.

    What's this updated crafting system they speak of?

    In all seriousness it's question time.

    Can you mix and match TOS and Refit parts?

    How often should we expect multiple versions of end game ships like with the T'liss and Sheshar.

    Only 4 days to get it?

    How did the rule get removed?

    Back to partying!

    So THAT'S what those pigs with jetpacks going by this morning was all about. I thought it was just a race or something.

    Well all the walls are down and anything is possible. Could we maybe get the original film and tv show music as well. I'd love to roll into DS9 and hear the actual theme. Same thing for entering the Delta Quadrant for Voyager's theme. Maybe the Entering Spacedock song from Star Trek III?

    The sky's the limit.

    Even logic must bend to economics and nostalgia. Sadly.

    I had *hoped* these three types of ships might be tied into some anniversary-style event in the Reputation, but I am not at all surprised they've been made available in *this* way. Given the massive demand, it makes perfect sense too - well done, Cryptic!

    True.

    What are the stats? 15 consoles and the ships wield full universal boff stations capable of equipping everything?
    This program, though reasonably normal at times, seems to have a strong affinity to classes belonging to the Cat 2.0 program. Questerius 2.7 will break down on occasion, resulting in garbage and nonsense messages whenever it occurs. Usually a hard reboot or pulling the plug solves the problem when that happens.
