I'm surprised the Typhoon hasn't yet become a C-Store option.
I'm even more surprised the Assault Cruiser configuration seen as a hologram in the Shipyard of Earth Spacedock, K7 and as a gold ship model above Admiral Quinn's office also wasn't added in the C-Store ships.
I also would really like seeing the Perpetual Excalibur-class (seen in the Sirius sector Deep Space Encounters) not being playable yet.
I would have thoughts the above 3, seeing they are already concepted and modeled, would've been much easier to put into player hands than what they had to design for the C-Store.
Lol, funny, I think a red one would be named the Nimbus I think it was called with a certain arrogant Captain at the helm.
You on about the Zapp Brannigan Nimbus (only one I can think of with an arrogant Captain atm), I'm sure that was Greenish (tho another good use for something the size and shape of the Jupiter lol)
... That's PERFECT! You must do this if they make the Jupiter playabe!
And you must say 'smeg' a lot.
o/~ Its cold outside, there's no kind of atmosphere,
I'm all alone, more or less... o/~
lol, I would do, but we'd have to get the devs to make Android and Hologram BOs as well, and when I was in school (when I was 10ish) I did use to say smeg alot... and did have a smeg cooker

Whoops, it's been like forever since I last watched Futurama, but you're right, the Nimbus was green, not red, but yes, that's what I was referring to since that ship looks somewhat like the Nimbus.

heh no worries, had to think as well, but it does look somewhat like the Nimbus, maybe Klif could be a Saurian BO and the rest of the ship be filled with Redshirts heh
Even though it's a "better" picture, it's still a bad picture. No matter how good the shot, the ship looks like TRIBBLE. It's actually probably more of a realistic design compared to most Fed ships (how a large ship might look in real life). That notwithstanding, the thing is fugly as hell! Cryptic really needs to revamp the Jupiter. Attaching the Nacelles differently, maybe in an X-like pattern at the rear with each nacelle attached further up the hull on its own strut, or even a + sign connection in that vein would improve things alot. That and the nacelles should be at least half again as large, if not twice as large. Right now the truth is, the ship looks ridiculous compared to all other Fed ships.
I find it amazing how people can love all these ugly un-canon and un-realistically designed Starfleet Ships. I mean come on, if your going to make new ships at least make them plausible for Starfleet.
i would prefer it if cryptic released TOS style and TMP style add ons for all the ships we currently have so we can build depending on the style of the universe we like
as for the jupiter i do think the main problem with it is the nacelle pylon configuration at the back of the ship.
If you look at the galaxy / nebula they are pretty big starships but the nacelles are to sort of scale the jupitiers look like they stole them off a runabout.
its already ingame and for me and many other players one of the best looking ships in STO, would be really nice if we could get it via C-Store or at lvl 51.
Thanks
The Typhoon class is in the works for a later update, Cryptic said.
Whatever happened to the NX ship they announced way early on in development?
I don't think that one is even in game, is it? It looks like a more futuristic sovereign, but had a joining pylon with a torpedo launcher. Hrm... maybe I can find a pic...
That's actually just a Noble class ship with an extra impulse drive/torpedo launcher/whatever slung between the warp nacelles. It's possible it was a testbed vehicle for what later became the Noble class.
really? ill hope it dont takes to long to get it ingame would be nice to see it with 2.0 or something like that.
because the game makes much more fun when you can fly around with a ship what you like.
I suppose the Jupiter could actually be greatly improved with better looking warp nacelles. Attach them differently, make them longer and thicker might all help a lot.

It could also be improved by a barrage of quantum torpedoes.
Just thought of how we could clean up the donut mess after the battle with the Candyfloss Enitiy, the Jupiter class will have the same skill as SpaceBall 1, it can transform into.... *bombombombombom* MEGAMAID
Oh I really should watch that film again, and now I have a craving for donuts, good thing I work in a Supermarket heh

See look, its half red already, maybe add an Asteroid buried deep into the side of it and it'll be perfect

Then I will roam around hunting down machine creatures that are bent on destroying the human race...
OH SNAP we already have that In the game!

I actually kind of like the Yeager.

U.S.S. Lollypop
Ya know, if I had that ship I would name it "Fifth Element"
That would be the U.S.S. Griddle

wouldn't it need constant repair due to the crew eatting it?
tho if you hit its nacelles, instead of Plasma venting out of it you'd get Strawberry Jam with all the attacking ships getting stuck in it heh
And we could have Custard plasma for the Escort and blueberry bombs from the Science...:D
where we'd have to fight the dreaded Candyfloss Enitiy
bits of Donut and sugery goodness fly everywhere and then your Sensors get Jammed heh
me too aqdd me to this
Raspberry! Only one man would DARE give me the raspberry......... LONESTAR!!! ^_^
Was totally thinking about "jamming" sensors, too. XD
Oh I really should watch that film again, and now I have a craving for donuts, good thing I work in a Supermarket heh
anyone remember which Trek actor was in it?
Tim Russ aka Tuvok ^_^
