Are you planning to buy the anniversary bundle?

I know there are already a couple of polls, so sorry for 'pollverload'. However the other polls are asking rather specific questions(which is fine, of course) but I am more interested in the 'big question' of whether you are actually buying or not. There was a similar poll on reddit which got quite a few responses, so I'm also curious to see how the forums compare to the results of the reddit poll.
And obviously, feel free to explain. Thanks for your feedback

Looking for a fun PvE fleet? Join us at Omega Combat Division today.
In its current state its a firm no from me.
I agree with these evaluations.
2. Already own the ships in there of interest, don't care about obsoleting that with 'legendary' replacements, especially so shortly after T6 was already made old with experimental upgrades
3. Don't care for the excelsior, I would never fly it, counts as bloat personally
4. L-B'Rel not properly upgraded to 5/1 weapons, L-T'Liss got upgraded weapons, so did L-Gal-X, why can't this
5. Already at ship overload really
6. No L-D7
Definitely NOT worth what they are charging, even with the "discount".
Plus UNLIKE last year; they aren't offering the same type of choice. Last year you had TWO Bundles - one with JUST the 10 ships (for a lower price); and a second higher priced version with the 10 ships AND a bunch of add-on TRIBBLE.
This year we just get one (IMO) outrageously priced bundle with a bunch of add-on TRIBBLE that I daresay most don't find to be worth it.
Where's the "just the 4 ships" option for this 11th Anniversary Bundle?

I love supporting STO but I do want value for my money or even someone else's money.
Hey, I guess I would "take it" too if someone were giving it to me
If you do wind up getting it, hope you enjoy

So now we are calling T7 a "Legendary" ship.
T5>T5U>T6> Legendary?
IMO same ship as T5 that used to cost 1000 Zen. Then copy/paste new skin and add simple flares and called "Legendary" and ask for 1 gazillion Zen.
Although I personally am only interested in single ships or thematic bundles of single ships paired with a bridge and uniform or similiar. But not a big bundle of random junk for moon prices.

Yeah, I bought the T'liss too. I know a lot of folks thought that was overpriced, but my perspective was it was an account wide unlock of what was basically a promo pack ship (a T6 T'liss). Considering promo pack ships typically equate to around $200 if you convert zen to EC (by buying and selling keys) and they are only a SINGLE character unlock, getting an account wide T'liss for...what was it...$120? seemed like a good deal to me.
But yeah. This pack had nothing like what I described above. All of the ships in this pack were already available in the C-store, and none were lockbox/promo ships. I'm waiting for the L-D7.

So, I may as well finish the process. Back then, I was enthusiastic; now I have to rationalise the purchase.
Its like charging $10 for a dozen eggs and a broken Ford Pinto. You want the eggs, but (for some magical reason) you can't get them without also buying the Pinto. Maybe you can get the Pinto running, maybe it has $20 lost under a seat, but its probably just junk to force you to pay $10 for eggs.
Not worth the price, at all.
Ci sono tre tipi di giocatori:
- quelli a cui non va mai bene niente... e vanno sul forum a trollare;
- quelli che sono talmente imbesuiti da credere a qualunque cosa i dev dicano, perfino che la luna è fatta di formaggio... e vanno sul forum a trollare;
- quelli che credono a quello a cui è giusto credere, sono d'accordo con quello con cui è giusto essere d'accordo e sono critici con quello che non va;
Ai giocatori dei primi due tipi, gratis in omaggio un bello specchio lucente su cui arrampicarsi. E una mazzata in testa per la loro poca intelligenza e compassione verso gli altri giocatori che non la pensano come loro.
Agli appartenenti al terzo tipo, invece, dico grazie. Anche se non sempre si riesce a mantenere la calma, siete quelli per cui vale la pena incazzarsi.
That really sucks, doesn't it? I am a big space barbie fan and would definitely like to get the monk robe, but definitely will not be spending that much to get it. It's sad when people feel like they have to buy something they admittedly consider a poor value to get something they want in the pack.
I've got the zen too, and I'll tell you exactly what I'm going to do with it: wait for the legendary D7 (or anything else I actually want). But I'm definitely not going to spend it on something I don't want just because I have it.
Of course, you actually want something in the pack so you're in a different boat. But for what it's worth I hope you enjoy the stuff you get

I did the exact same and this echoes my thoughts exactly.
That's already available for individual sale, AND you can unlock it for free by simply having a level 65 Klingon character on your account.

Cool. Good thing they updated those stats from what they originally were

The Kamarag is a sweet looking ship.

I'm in agreement with you on the Kamarag skin & the fleet-only Tor'Kaht skin. I'll be frowning about missing those, but not worth the price to me.
All I'll say is I hope you enjoy the B'rel. To me it's only "legendary" by the title stickered to it & the Temer is more of a "legendary" BoP than this B'rel.
