Those ships are canon hero ships and i am very disappointed that they don't come with the correct Bridges like the Kelvin and other Lockbox/Anniversary... Ships did. Please give us those Bridges.

    Nx doesn't have a custom bridge either. Cryptic don't care.

    They need to give ship interiors some love FFS. Rescale them to not look so huge, at the very least. We know tacofangs still works here right? I'm sure he's capable of doing it, if cryptic cared enough to let him.

    I am still waiting for the Sovereign Class interior, the one shown in Star Trek First Contact - Heck, the Enterprise interior from Undiscovered Country.

    Let us face the HARD cold truth, there isn't any money to be made in investing in ship bridges and interiors- It is more of a vanity item.

    Are you aware how many MMOs make 90% of their profits off vanity items?

    The Galaxy Class has been in the game from the start and it took years to get a proper canon bridge for it, there's no chance those ships will get a proper bridge for at least a lustrum.

    They still haven't fixed the problems with the Galaxy bridge, either...

    Correction, it took years to get a proper complete interior.
    There's nothing special about bridges per se, lockbox ships have all had them as a standard feature for years and as part of their selling point.
    It's only now in the past year that it's changed, with the Undiscovered lockbox being the first with no bridges for the ships. It's a rather disappointing trend that marks a serious decline in the quality and value of the premium lockbox and lobi ships.

    Even so the lack of bridges for the latest ships really threw me for a loop, as these aren't some random ships from an old series, but ships from a currently on-air show. And I honestly expected them to fully capitalize on that, like they did with the Kelvin lockbox. Especially since CBS owns all the rights to Discovery unlike the Kelvin timeline stuff.

    Exactly my point. Lockbox ships always had unique bridges until the Undiscovered Box. THe other ships mentioned here (Galaxy, Sovereign) are Zen store ships and thes usually don't come with unique Bridges but Boxships did. THats why am so disappointed that they just don't care even though the ships are not cheap.

    I will take the bridges for the Discovery ships as well as one for the TWOK Connie and the Excelsior from either ST III or STVI

    Just look at the galaxy bridge. They wanted 1000 Zen for it. That's stupid... I'd pay 500, but 1000 for something with zero functionality is stupid.

    Cryptic are always testing the boundaries. Once they released the NX without a bridge (a definite no-no for a Lobi ship), and saw they were getting away with it, unique bridges were pretty much doomed. That is why I actively boycotted the NX. I'm just 1 silly little person, though, of course. :) But it goes to show ppl should always rage against the dying of the light! Because if you don't, well, look at what happened.

    2000 for the Galaxy ship interior, actually.


    Which I gladly paid. :)

    Right. Even more ridiculous.

    TOS Conni, Ent D, Defiant, KT Conni, and Voyager are the only hero ships with bridges. NX-01, TOS Films Conni, Ent E, and Discovery do not, that's four that do and five that don't.​​

    Norway and Yeager dammit... I still want my Typhoon and Jupiter though.
    JJ Trek The Kelvin Timeline is just Trek and it's fully canon... get over it. But I still prefer TAR.

    Bridges are cool and all, but there's virtually nothing to do in them, so I don't see a lack of one as a deal-breaker.

    That said, I'll be happy if they do add them and will absolutely use them, just as I use my TOS interior for my TOS toons even though I never go to the bridge to see it.

    A bridge would be worked on by an Environmental Artist. A ship wouldn't. An Environmental Artist has no control over ship stats or the ship model itself.

    My guess, besides the fact we have a full on Expansion coming, is that we don't quite have enough references for the Crossfield, Walker, and Sarcophagus Bridges.
    My money is on the Expansion honestly.
    With luck, we may get a FULL NX interior in the future, and maybe even the missing bridges for the Crossfield, Walker, and Sarco. In the meantime people can slap the TOS Connie Interior on the Crossfield and Walker if they have it.

    IMO, the "Caucasus" bridge looks close enough to get by for now. Apparently I was the one person that bought bridge packs when they used to sell them during year one, so I don't know if that's one you have to pay for or if everyone has it.

    I definitely care about bridges. I like to hang out there if I'm just doing Fleet/Armada chat, DOFFing & Admiralty.

    There are some vanity items that do well...but interiors is not one of them. What happens in other MMO is irrelivant to what happens in this one.

    Are you aware how popular the phrase "Space barbie is the true endgame" is in THIS game??

    Just becuase YOU don't care about space barbie doesn't mean its not popular.

    Most people I've asked about interiors would buy them at a moments notice if new properly scaled ones came out. Hell they made full interiors for the TOS ships as recently as AOY.

    The TOS bundle has been out far longer than AoY has... and it comes with the TOS Connie interior.
