I do photography on the side...in the real world, I notice right away the size difference, with other folk's screenshots, and my mind eye caught the shift in size. I think, if you add the mini stations directly to the exterior hull in a total roundabout circumference measure, it would probably come out to the same size as…
I don't see the 'beefy' side, as you say...I just went through the screenshot album to see the comparison from the topside view again...the former ESD had more girth across than the current one, I would even say the shrinkage is at least 40 to near 50% less minus the extra mini stations that are connected. But everyone…
Well, finally saw it on the main server, but I see it a bit smaller to the former ESD, in length and size. The reason I can say that, cause just for measure, I did a topside shot of my ship over the station. It was huge, comparing to the new ESD2, it does look smaller in comparison, and that is my opinion only.
I had that feeling upon seeing it for the first time...in my mind, it looked weak, felt weak...and performed weak. And since it is a retro backward design...it won't be in my inventory.
What is actually going here, is licensing. If CBS/Paramount made any New 'New' ship under Secret Hideout current contract. It belongs to them *SH*, not the former. Which messes with merchandising and the lot. The design is very Retro and not Modern...and I wonder why at first, why was it that way, and then I remembered,…
The differences between them, is the visual look, one looks better with an improved design, while the other looks...a major degrade in design. Since I spoke briefly with the designer on FB, not in depth about it. This is what CBS/Paramount wants...well, they can have it.
Not to be the one to kill the joy here, but on top I have noticed the retraction of advertising the anniversary, last year, it was just the emblem in ESD and no number 12. Will that adjusted to reflect the event?
I built my last 2 PCs for Trek *out of 6*, cause I loved of travelling around. But because of limitations from CBS, adventures and new challenges are kept with the current borders of the IP. I do dread the day, when this ride does come to an end...but I want to remember with fondness, at least I go to journey around the…
