    Congratulations, that's an amazing pack.
    I even like the goodies you threw in on top of the ships - and thanks for not bundling the ships with the max-level-boost.
    Definitely going to buy this on release.

    they look amazing but please start selling legendary as a single ships. the bundle rewards are great but it'd be nice to be able to buy legindaries we want and maybe work towards getting the set (maybe do something like what happened with the vanguard pack and have, smaller sub packs that discount the main bundle for each single ship you buy)

    No info on the 3 types of pets? As a carrier pilot this is the only element that interests me in this bundle . The carrier elements are what determine if I buy a bundle or not. I am not going to buy a bundle without knowing if its worth while.
  • imgoingmadimgoingmad Member Posts: 23 Arc User
    That is great news!

    on a side note, seeing the price of this bundle and its contents, can we have an update on earlier legendary bundles, especially the legendary KDF and Jem'Hadar bundles? Thanks :)

    Two things:
    1. For a pack with a Starfleet and a Romulan ship, what's the logic behind including:
      • 23rd Century Vulcan Ambassador Outfit
      • Species Unlock – Cardassians
      Everything else seems to make sense...
    2. The Akira appears to be missing a Commander-level bridge officer seat in the blog.

    I still can't wrap my head around the fact that for such a tactical-focussed ship, the Legendary Akira is a cruiser and not an escort.

    I'm not sure what to think of the L-Akira's design.
    I'll probably keep using the existing parts.

    I'm glad it has 5 forward weapon slots though.

    Still waiting on a LEGENDARY BORTASQU'.

    KDF is the ONLY faction still without a legendary flagship.

    It's been, what, 2 whole years since getting a new KDF ship?

    I'm kind of tired of constant fedship reskins, this game has become very lopsided content wise.

    I would actually BUY a battle cloaking dreadnaught Legendary BORTASQU'.
  • imgoingmadimgoingmad Member Posts: 23 Arc User
    great idea!

    they could release it with a tribble for 16000 Zen and then complain that KDF ships don't sell. Reminds me of the legendary KDF captain bundle...

    Honestly, despite its high price, I would consider buying that bundle. But only because there are two amazing looking FED ships in it.

    And it's like that for almost all Klingon ships. I only own a few KDF ships simply because they were paired with ships from other factions. The Math-ha is probably the only exception and I might at some point get the Negh'Tev for its own sake. I can't think of any other designs I'd absolutely want though, unless they released a T6 KDF-Dyson ship at some point.

    Of course that's just my opinion, but I don't think they are wrong to assume that Klingon ships on their own just don't sell that well.

    It's not missing, it's the engineering/command slot. They made it a cruiser.

    If I'm not mistaken, the blog said earlier today that the ship would have a Lt.Cmdr. Engineering slot. So they probably fixed that.

    And after checking these stats again, I must say that I can't wait to get this ship!

    One more forward weapon slot, the ability to use MW Boff powers and it looks like I'll even be able to put one more additional control ability on it compared to my Alita. Which means that the Akira's own torpedo console (and those of the T6 Luna, Steamrunner and Lexington) can be used more often.

    Now I'll just need to figure out whether I'll have room for yet another console that will come with the ship itself... But I can already tell that I'm going to like flying this ship.

    Nooo!!! :'(
    Been waiting forever for a Legendary Akira to be added, and then they turned it into a cruiser.
    Ah well, still gonna buy it for the skin/model, fighters, traits, and all the other things in the pack.

    Dang, I knew Cryptic likes to dump on the KDF but hadn't realized that it'd been 2 years since a Legend KDF ship. Cryptic's Legend B'rel was so disappointing with its layout & no H.M.S. Bounty.

    Because of today's patch I can no longer log-in either. It really is a bummer.



    With this bundle I think it's a shame Cryptic didn't utilize the opportunity to add Plasma-Quads which would amke it the only way to make those account-wide now (I believe).

    Hi!
    Sorry I don't get what you are saying. Which bundle would you consider buying? Bortasqu with tribble? And which one contains to FED ships?

    Anyways, I have no complains about this bundle, was a little interested in the warbird but the stats don't appeal to me.

    I am pretty sure they don't need to assume KDF sales because they have the numbers.

    All I am saying (complaining about), is that it is a damn shame to have great offerings like this one, the warbird bundle, various FED bundels etc. on the one hand, and bad value for money with most KDF bundles (like 11th anni, legendary KDF captain) and complain that KDF ships don't sell.
    Of course they don't sell if there is no appeal.

    The KDF Captain Bundle has only 1 KDF ship in it.
    I believe you're thinking of the 11th Anniversary Bundle.

    I would hope you can get the Kodai pets without the pack, I appreciate they ripped straight out of ST: Shattered Universe. I just hope we can get playable fighters out of the new shuttles we have been getting.

    Yes, I was thinking of the 11th Anniversary Bundle. I didn't even know there was another one with legendary Klingon ships. :p

    Why is it ruined?

    You can still fly the ones that already exist, this is just adding more options for players that don't like flying an escort but who do appreciate the looks of the Akira line.

    The fact that a cruiser-type ship is being added isn't taking anything away from escort-fans.

    Also, to me personally the Akira never felt much like a pure escort. It was always somewhere in-between an escort like the Defiant or Patrol Escorts and a battlecruiser in terms of how the ship flies and moves. And it won't really be a pure cruiser now either, since it will have five forward weapon slots and only two command cruiser arrays.

    I'm very happy with the new Akira. Those blue torpedoes look great. And it's even better to have five forward weapon slots to fire all sorts of differently coloured torpedoes. :D
