    I dnt think discovery would b lockbox. Im thinking more like a 3pack cstore with interior. Tac/eng/sci versions. Maybe with the phase 2 varient. A ground set based of the rifle, pistol, combat armor and kit

    That space suit might be nice, and a mission through an asteroid graveyard with spacesuit Klingon enemies.
    That kind of mission - I imagine, would play very similarly to a third-person version of Shattered Horizon - would be most welcome; between portions of 'Boldly They Rode' and 'A Step Between Stars', most of the core mechanics are in place. Bonus points if you have certain tracks from the late great John Barry's collection among your digital music collection - specifically 'Space March' (You Only Live Twice) along with Moonraker's 'Space Laser Battle' and 'Flight into Space'.

    There was a time when I would say "prime universe ship so definitely C-Store", but nowadays we have no way of knowing until they announce it.

    Indeed, sir. Given the true cost of lobi gear, whether in terms of time or actual currency (assuming keys are bought in packs of ten, and each box gives the most conservative return of 4 crystals), I found it prudent to dismiss all of it from inclusion in any build.

    If the Discovery makes it into the game, I have no doubt whatsoever it'll be a lockbox/Lobi ship.

    "Critics who say that the optimistic utopia Star Trek depicted is now outmoded forget the cultural context that gave birth to it: Star Trek was not a manifestation of optimism when optimism was easy. Star Trek declared a hope for a future that nobody stuck in the present could believe in. For all our struggles today, we haven’t outgrown the need for stories like Star Trek. We need tales of optimism, of heroes, of courage and goodness now as much as we’ve ever needed them."

    ^ Most likely. It's typical for faction ships that are from other than STO's storyline period. Possibly might get a pass for being cross-promotion from the current TV Trek, but I wouldn't place bets on it.

    If Discovery makes it into the game, I would like it come with a Spore Drive Core for instantaneous jumps to any point on all the maps in the game. Of course, it should also come with the Spore Bear Vanity Pet as well. If you acquire either ship, the title "Mutineer" should be made available.

    Concept designs for the Federation Discovery ships from the Battle of the Binary Stars:

    The nacelles and the deflector seem to share some similarities between the models. It also appears the Enterprise design witht he big main deflector dish and engineering section isn't as common yet.

    i'd pay $$$ for the orville ships uniforms and equipment.....remember the cure for a bad TRIBBLE is 'the orville'

    xD I watch Orville to feel good about life. TRIBBLE is ok, but its to dark and moody, not to mention the blatant liberalism being shoved down your throat.

    Star Trek has always been blatant liberalism being shoved down your throat. Doesn't really make sense for you to be a Star Trek fan if this is how you feel.

    USS Kelvin (which did exist in both timelines)

    Any proof of that? There might be a USS Kelvin in the Prime Universe, but it might not be a single-nacelle starship. It all goes back to is the Kelvin Universe a parallel universe that existed for billions of years or was it a branched timeline that was created in 2233? There is no proof in the new Star Trek movies that the Kelvin Universe is a branched timeline or parallel universe.

    That was the intention of the people that created the movie and is generally accepted.

    Those discovery ships look epic. Could see most of them fitting in with the miranada family. The yeager would make the promeathus a little more intresting. with the nx lacking a secondary hull these do make sence. Would be nice to see the nx refit on screen

    I was watching tos yesterday. The cage is referanced to have happened 13 years proir in spocks court marshel which puts it in 2252. So there should be constitution classes is service. Even if its the constitution and enterprise.

    Im waiting for the enterprise to be named. Wouldent mind pike and the orginal 'cage' crew to be used either. So we know spock is in starfleet on the enterprise at this point with at least i wud assume kirk, scooty, mccoy. I thought there were more classes of ships at the battle of the binary stars than the ones shown here. Will be nice to flesh out the tmp / tos / ent eras.
