While we all know that the original winner was - I was hoping that the Jupiter Carrier get a modern day facelift. I hope that new costumes would be added to the carrier, especially perhaps some former entries.

This design in particular with perhaps more variation of the saucer section. What say you all
Comments
The design would fit better for a battle cruiser or science vessel, but not a carrier.
Biggest problem/cause for its low appeal with the Jupiter seems to be its stats and layout, not how it looks.

I wouldn't mind seeing an upgrade.
Maybe they could make a new C-Store Jupiter Variant (say, Neptune Class). Give it a Command instead of an Intel seat, a new console, and the ability to mix and match parts with the Jupiter. Introduce it alongside a new Tier 6 Vo'Quv or Kar'Fi perhaps.
They don't usually do Refits of Tier 6 ships (except the Fleet variants), but maybe it's time to change something up. We don't want to wait for T7 before we can get a new variant, do we?
I never saw the other design, but the current one does look rather lackluster. I think they made a mistake in putting the launch bays in the saucer, but they probably wanted to keep away from it looking like the SFB Fed carrier or something. The design needs a detailed skin at the very least to knock some of the ho-hum off of it looks wise.
Personally speaking, I thought back then, and even today, that it was a slap in the face considering there's still no T6 Vo'quv(the first playable carrier in the game). Really though, the JHV Carrier is the undisputed king of carrier-play these days; face-lifting "the whale" isn't going to change that.
I believe I voted for the 2nd from the Left on the TOP & BOTTOM; as I was hoping the Carrier be a bit smaller and more maneuverable.
Given in this case most of the design or a lot of it is done, they could add it to Phoenix or Lobi tokens...

Like a badass I shall make him look, and in the furnace of war I shall forge him.

He will be untouched by plague or disease; no sickness shall blight him.
He shall have such tactics, strategies and machines that no foe will best him in battle.
He is my answer to cryptic logic, he is the Defender of my Romulan Crew.

T6 ships already cost 30 bucks a pop. buying 2 of them is equivalent to purchasing a new triple A title. imagine how much they'd charge for T7. not even considering the ridiculously overpowered stats and special things it would need to have to be "worth it"

With that, and given the age of the game already, I doubt we'll ever see T7.

Tier 7 ships will probably happen when the sales for Tier 6 ships are notably going down. They will have to bring something new to the table to excite people, a mechanic similar to specializations and starship mastery traits to differentiate themselves both from each other, and the Tier 6 ships. That isn't necessarily easy.
It could mean that Tier 7 ships won't come because they can always devise a new specializations and mastery trait that will excite people, and thanks to the new TV series, new exciting ships are introduced, plus newly excited fans are looking for a game to explore the franchise. It could also mean that once Tier 7 ships have to come because they just can't come up with something that attracts players anymore, but that the game is so far "gone" that even Tier 7 ships can't help them and the game would be moving towards life support. Or it will work out for another few years before they need to worry about a new tier.
My character Tsin'xing
Spock Jellyfish is the 1st Science ship with a command pilot
The only other Sci ship with Pilot anything is the Na'kul
Sona Command Science Vessel is Cmdr Command/science
There are a couple sci ships with lower degrees of command availible (The T6 tholian for example).

I really have a bad feeling that sooner or later they will introduce T7 ships. They are coming people, it is a matter of when. They may have actual trait slots or the ability to switch Bridge officer seating in some way, but whatever it may be, I have a deep feeling that T7 ships are coming. At least in some limited form.
A fresh game built from the ground up with proper developed factions with their own tutorials and episode trees, with them linking up at the finale against the ultimate evil, "The Borg."
Then there is a reason to really introduce T7 ships - just plainly change the entire Tier thing, which is an awful system.

There were a number of people who felt nostalgic towards the original Cryptic Special Jupiter. I forget which one I wanted, but the current Jupiter wasn't it.
I honestly hoped that we'd at least be able to access the second and third place ships for the Ship Customization screen.
I'd like to see an updated/tweaked Jupiter along with a T6 Vo'quv package (maybe do a discount package like the kind that was made for the Discovery Pack), so that those who purchased the Jupiter can get the package cheaper to make up for the earlier purchase.
Like the Jupiter, the ship crew could work on alternate designs for us to chose for the T6 Vo'quv carrier's main appearance.
Alternates for both Jupiter and T6 Vo'quv should then be voted on for alternate skins for the ship customization screen.
