By that argument, it would take years to level up. No-one would be happy with that. And I know the plot. But i'm not talking about realism, I'm talking about giving captains an oppurtunity to bond with their ship. I don't like flying a ship which I don't have a connection with. You also have to remember that Kirk only ever…

Kitbashing like that would be great! Even if you don't want a Connie, it's a real problem in this game that people have to abandon ships they love. The ships become characters of their own, in Star Trek - you don't see the same crew jump through five different ships in the same series, as if it's the Horatio Hornblower…

Al Rivera (Cryptic Lead Designer) said in an interview with Joystiq that: "...there was a possibility other atypical ships or items may make appearances via a grab-bag, especially items that CBS may be more open to allowing on an ultra-rare basis. The mention of a Tier-5 Constitution class came up as an example, but he…

As you'll probably notice, I'm a TOS purist. But I think my suggestions are reasonable for everyone :P Short-Term: Romulan bird-of-prey-style warbirds up to endgame! I like the D'Deridex but I don't want to fly it. I want an oldstyle warbird. Mid-Term: Customisable starship interiors. - Ability to decide which stations my…

Well if it had this loadout: http://www.stowiki.org/Terran_Cruiser#Unnamed And I could play with the aesthetics.....and I'd rather not have the I.S.S. prefix, but I might concede on that point.... Then that would certainly be an option :P

I just meant the post that said 'delete'. I posted the same thing three times by accident :D

Sorry to completley ignore that huge argument you both just had (I'll go back and read over it), but you have just sort of come up with the single most legitimate excuse for putting a T5 Connie in the game. Perhaps, even in the 25th Century, the Constitution makes an excellent ship for cadet training - i.e. role it…

:D I'm possibly stealing your signature now. SOLIDARITY!

This is precisely my angle - I'm not trying to say that an intergalactic spacefleet would REALISTICALLY use a piece of tech designed 160 years ago. I'm trying to think of a semi-realistic excuse to involve a ship design which I like in a video game. Like I've said, STO forces you to suspend your Trek disbelief, sometimes.…

As I've said, I'm not advocating a Tier 5 Connie. I want a retro TOS battleship or supercruiser, which would be far less out-of-place among the battleships and supercruisers that make up T5 at the moment. Additionally, for people who do want it - just because someone in power has said no to something it certainly doesn't…

That seems a little silly. Is that really your motivation to keep TOS ships out of the game? Would it somehow cheapen the quality of the game, or really make you want to quit in the disgust if you saw a larger classic ship flying around? YES! The Yamato. Fond memories :D The FASA ship recognition manual has some excellent…

Now THAT would satisfy me! That Akira looks alot like the old FASA Loknar class, designed waaay before th Akira or the NX. I've always liked this design, as well - http://screenshots.filesnetwork.com/17/files2/109599_1.jpg That would surely just be even less lausible than 'prime' universe ships getting in? The Abramsprise…

I like that - would you allow players to use their TOS ships outside of the TOS missions, or would you completley segregate between past and future? Of course my own ideal scenario would be if the entire game was set during the 2270s, around the time that the TOS elements were going out and the TMP/TWOK elements were…
