  • So they shrank it down and nerfed it to fit the game. Whatever. It'll never happen, they won't do it that way because they make way more money from people gambling to win these things, while at the same time limiting how many of them will be flying around, if they put them in the C-Store, everyone interested and able will…
  • They are never going to produce a game breaking ubership, so the whining about stats I see is just ridiculously pointless. This Jupiter is still not my favorite design but it's a good looking design in it's finished form and it will be a welcome change if it's to replace the old Jupiter model. I would still like to see an…
  • Well it is a cliff hanger, the story isn't finished yet
  • It was a well written and executed episode, but it left me with mixed feelings.
  • Ravens hell, my target would be the that should have never been revived.
  • Look at the picture, "U.S.S. Jupiter" over the deflector, you can't get more obvious than that. I'm hoping this is going to be a full replacement for the Jupiter, so we can at least kiss that old horror goodbye.
  • I see that they have named the ship the Jupiter and if this leads to the eventual removal of that hideous old model of the Jupiter from the game then I applaud the results of this contest wholeheartedly. It certainly wouldn't be my first choice for a carrier, the Beta was my preferred design, and I do hope they will…
  • I'm grateful, STO has been saving me a lot of money lately. Structural integrity isn't going to protect these components in combat, spindly parts sticking out make excellent targets, obscure the line of fire for defensive weapons, create a complication to shielding and are a navigation hazard for fighters on a carrier.…
  • This was never a "designing" event, this was a multiple choice with poor choices. Alpha and Omega aren't that different, but I would like to see options to change the engine/pylon layout and add the pod, but we probably won't get that because after all, "This is the ship people chose".
  • And now we resort to attacking each other, ya.....whatever. I honestly don't for a minute believe this contest was as open to chance as people would like to believe, I think we have gone in a direction that was planned from the start. If people enjoy this design as it is, more power to them. I don't wish them ill. But it…
  • The Alpha is a little more stylish, has a little more detail and I felt like bucking the odds, even though I prefer the kitbash we've discussed, No actually I prefer the Beta, but that's a lost cause.
  • Sarcasm or not I wouldn't be surprised :P
  • Big depends on the scale they finally make it, I look at details like windows and the size of bay doors to get an indication, but that can be misleading, the intel ships have windows that would make you think the ships are enormous. We can only hope they are going to give us a realistically sized carrier with believable…
  • Somehow I don't see any of the losing designs surviving as an alternate, but then I can't see all of this for just one canned design with no options for customization, that just doesn't strike me as sensible. Even if one design wins it's still leaving a lot of unsatisfied people out in the cold, that wouldn't be wise if…
  • I understand what you are saying but I am also being realistic. In these discussions how many people even mention the Alpha? Except when discussing cannibalizing parts for another ship of course. How many rave about their preference for the Alpha, talk about the Alpha as if this contest were concluded and the Alpha were…
  • Who is stamping the ground demanding the moon? The only one being so dramatic appears to be you. Everyone else is merely putting their support behind a desireable option, but not really expecting much from it. I truly suspect it's not that much of a coincidence.
  • That the winner is the Omega is a foregone conclusion, people went into this having chosen the Omega from the start. The Alpha pulling off a win at this point I would consider a fluke. Kirk's Enterprise was a dinosaur, spindly pylons were abandoned as technology evolved, obviously for some good reason. A carrier by default…
  • They have 3 hanger doors, Don't number the hangers by the number of bay doors, go by the level they are on, doors that are on the same level could be opening into a single large hanger deck. Epsilon nacelles and Pylons, that's an important detail otherwise you end up with the Epsilon engines sticking way out on the ends of…
  • We get 3 hangers, sure as sh.. we lose weapon mounts to pay for it, I for one wouldn't want it to have more than 2 Hangers.
  • Probably not, but to be fair if you look closely at images of the studio model you can see that the lance is not perfectly inline with the bottom of the saucer, it too has a slight upward tilt, so what you are talking about is a matter of a couple of degrees, if that. They did do a lot to improve the details of these…
  • I think that's the deflector, it's lit differently than the hangers, the slit underneath I don't know, it's not lit like a hanger, it seems kind of narrow for a deflector but it could be one considering how small the main one seems to be, it might just be hull lighting, but who can say, once again most of the views except…
  • Something tells me the designs are already made, but I'm really starting to like the idea of an Omega Epsilon Alpha hybrid.
  • All of the quads remind me of the Eclipse Intel Cruiser, but I have to say this hybridization of parts from both the Omega and the Epsilon is appealing. I didn't choose the Epsilon primarily because I thought the warp engines looked too big, making the ship appear smaller, but in this configuration the engine hull…
  • There isn't much point, we know which is going to win this, I think we all knew what was going to win from the start of this. I'm going with Omega even though I dislike the different sized warp engines, the hanger bays wins it and the Epsilon just looks too much like an MVAE. I will say, as others have said, none of these…
  • They do both look like Starfleet ships, though I am no fan of quad warp monohulls, my preferred choice is still the Beta. I chose the Alpha because it looks like it could be a carrier, it has obvious bay door openings on the sides of a bulky looking saucer. This gives the visual impression that it could house a cavernous…
  • I don't think it could be anything else. We haven't been told what the stats will be on the finished ship so appearance is the only thing we could be voting on. I expect the Omega will ultimately be the final design here, it clearly seems to be the direction we are going, but I do like the idea of that pod, flying bridge…
  • It shouldn't be too hard to see that we are being steered toward choosing a ship that follows a specific shape. The poor detail of early drawings as well as the pairing of a good design with an inferior one in these selections, makes it apparent what's happening. In the end, both the Alpha and the Omega have designs that…
  • The Venture is still using the old version. It took 5 years to get this much, I wouldn't hold out much hope for getting anything else where the Galaxy Dreadnought is concerned.
  • I must say, it's been a very long wait but finally it's fixed and looks damn good. I am impressed. I could nitpick about minor details, the Venture skin still has alignment issues and it did not get the new Lance model, and the Lance is slightly misaligned for the Monarch skin, but this is better than anyone could ask for…
  • For an actual Carrier I'm not looking for "Sleek", a carrier shouldn't be sleek, so Alpha seems a bit closer to the mark, while it is streamlined it still portrays a sense of mass and the artwork seems to show a greater number of potential hanger openings than are apparent in the Gamma design. I do like the idea of the…
