Some Vesta Class Shots

SystemSystem Member, NoReporting Posts: 178,019 Arc User
Hey, there is not much love for the Vesta class on memory beta etc so for those, like myself, who like this ship class I found these images on the blog of Mark Rademaker (here: http://mark-rademaker.blogspot.com/). Hope you enjoy, they are quite large images of the Vesta class Aventine.

Hopefully we will have it in game at some point. :rolleyes:

    Ugh.. That's the ship everyone keeps campaigning for?

    For the love of all that's holy and good in this world, why?

    I think it's an overlong, humpbacked, hideous mess of a ship..

    Hm.. Yes. That is it. I hate this! It is revolting!

    I've loved that ship since Rademaker posted teaser shots way back when.

    Is it just me or does it bear a resemblence to the ultra fugly Imperial class?

    The Vesta Class has really grown on me over time. It has a sleek, swept-back look to it that evokes, on some levels, aquatic life. Especially with its black detailing, to me that ship is the shark of Starfleet. It looks like a proper progression or evolution of the classic Starfleet design. On top of all that, it's currently playing a major role in the Star Trek novel series, and I like to see all my Trek connected! I'm really looking forward to seeing this ship in-game.

    I thought they already had it in the discussion part of the list.

    They do, which is why the op's attitude makes my blood boil.

    Agreed...it's saving grace, however, is that it's not as "complex" looking with all the protruding plates of armor and stuff. It's the same general shape without the complexity.

    Forget that. What is missing is a famous ship from canon. It made appearances in TMP, TNG, and ENT.

    Oh boy, another "PLZZZ GIVE US THE USS AVENTINE!!11" thread.

    I have no problem with the ship whatsoever, and it would be cool to have in STO and I'm glad Cryptic will be adding it.

    But, there's something about the way some people constantly bring it up and make new threads begging for it that irritates the hell out of me. Like a child who keeps poking and prodding his parents to buy him a specific toy or he'll throw a tantrum until he gets what he wants.



    Don't you dare roll your eyes. You are not so important that you have the right to act disgusted, just because you haven't gotten what you want yet.

    i am inclined to agree with what you are saying, perhaps not the way you said it specifically, but im not you

    I think when they start allowing us to land on planets they should put it in as a vanity ship.

    BTW: the high res shots I took of the launch look a lot better.

    Thanks for posting those pics, I'd love to see this in game, would it be a tier 6?

    And for those that say "Omg not another thread like this!" please realise that not all of us have seen these pics and that we are interested in seeing "new" stuff.

    Thanks.

    Thanks.

    the issue is not the pics themselves. the issue is "omg please give us vesta class" when its already being worked on

    I remember where I have seen that shape before...

    All they need to do is make it a skin.

    When you've seen as many threads begging for the Vesta class as I've seen(and there have been MANY), you might begin to agree with my method of saying it.

    I'd be happy to see the ship in the game! I am just sick to death of seeing new threads pop up about it, like the people who start those threads have never seen a thread about the Vesta class before and think that just because they want it, that they are compelled to spam the forums about it until they get it.

    Which is rather amusing, since the shuttle cannot land safely on anything other than a long runway.

    Which is why I said to add it as a vanity ship. You wouldn't actually use it as your primary ship. Plus, it'd be funny as hell to see it in my ship's hanger.

    A Phoenix replica would be an awesome vanity ship as well! The nacelles should extract when going to warp :D

    I kind of like this ship, but do NOT expect it in game. The rights are owned by someone else, and that person may not be willing to sell the rights to Cryptic to use in the game or Cryptic won't be willing to purchase said rights.

    Wow...it's a good thing you are a Klingon... cause with all the '...I WANT...' threads that pop up around here, your natural rage must have a great outlet... :p

    Not a fan of the ship.

    Give me a Maelstrom or a Luna over that thing.

    Heck, even the imperial class. :p

    I'm a... very angry man. That said, I am a Fed player, a Klingon player, I do want to see the Vesta added and I don't mind too much if someone doesn't do a forum search and posts a new thread for the first time saying they want a particular ship...

    But I've seen some players create multiple threads spamming about wanting the Vesta added, and constantly bumping their own threads with "Come on Cryptic, let's have the Vesta!!". I kind of wish Cryptic would add the Vesta, and then prohibit those aforementioned players from ever getting to own one.
