Why wouldn't you compare DBB banks? The damage is significantly closer to the Dual cannons. Beams were always designed for broadsiding from cruisers that generally have a much worse turn rate. So the trade off was less damage, but being easier to bring to target, AND generally better surviveability on a cruiser than an…

500,000 / 8,000 per day = 2 months to refine it all.....

I would think an obvious choice that hasn't been hit on yet is a mobile option. Either a full port (lower graphics or something) available on mobile (as many handheld devices are getting pretty game-focused with graphics and processing power) -OR- A functional mobile version of something to replace the now defunct Gateway.…

I grew up with TNG, so I lean towards the canon ships from that series: Nebula, Galaxy, Galaxy X (last episode was sooo great), and lesser ships like the Ambassador, Reliant, and Oberth. But by AOY alt flys and Atlas. Best looking "period" ship I think.
-
Heck I remember when you needed a planned group to be able to hit the 5 min reward. And the first couple of times they ran the even (back before T6) it often took 10-15 min on a random pug.

As a Fed C Store ship....I think the last was the T6 Nebula? I mean we had the vulcan ship for the event this year.....but I think straight Fed Zen ship....Nebula?

I TOTALLY love the higher res quality, and am a huge supporter of updating older "original" models, many of which aren't in game anymore at all. The Orion's had a Battleship used for many episodes as a NPC boss that is simply gone now, and a few other NPC ships that have been pulled. For player ships, the Luna, Oberth,…
-
Apparently I've been corrected in my other post, and this is supposedly just a generic NPC cruiser. So it's actually and old model which is why it looks good? Supposedly. But I would be OK with something like that for a T6 Vo'Quv.

dangit!
-
I want THIS ship from the lockbox news post for my Klinks.
-
I think a more logical update would be a lifer ship for the new "factions". Specifically Dominion, and Temporal. I know Dominion has been mentioned as in the works, but I think Temporal should be thrown in, even if its just a skin for the existing model.
-
^ This We had years go buy with nothing. Very few lockboxes, no missions, and in fact very little content. Then we got LOR. Which was awesome at the time, but the devs explained it took years to get it together. And players complained. Lull started again after that and I think 1.5 or 2 years later we got T6 and Delta.…
-
But the blog kind leads us to getting S31 tech for sure. The fact they mentioned the AI, and the tractor anchors specifically.....could just be a nod to the show, but could be consoles available on ships? Or heck, they could introduce a new class of ship altogether? Or a new skill and tree? The options are endless. S31…

Kinda miss the old single player Kobiyashi you could do, where it was just fly in and see how long you could last.
-
No, the OP was referencing wanting to create ONE character. So in that light, the bonus rewards available for completing a new character (if you missed the previous run and unlocks of course) would be available from a temporal or VIL event again as well, making them all equal. However, I agree the odds of those being re…
-
Yeah, my guess if they did another redo event, it would be Temporal next. They already did Delta once, they have Temporal and VIL after that before they would redo a redo recruiting event. So maybe we would see Temporal at the end of the year?
-
I agree it would have to be something new. Fed rewards the Specialization Points. Rom give you the upgrade token. Klink AND Ferengi give the dilithium dumps (and Ferengi give you Latinum too). so a new admiralty would need to be a new reward. 2 T6 ship tokens towards the "free ship"? Or perhaps lobi? Maybe 20 Lobi at level…
-
Well we kinda had it (sort of) with the original version of Terran Empire Incursion. V1 science vessels HAD to close the anomolies bc Tac and Eng took SOOOOOO long. Same for re-aligning the 4 corner structures, those HAD to be Eng, as Sci and Tac took SOOOOOO long as to be impractical. This was quickly changed, bc too many…
-
Actually...I think this would sell to a niche of players. Imagine actually having a TANK. 6 or 7 Eng console slots, plus universal console. Introduce an agro console that when activated attracts all enemy fire for a brief period of time with a massive hull resistance or hull regen when active. Same for Science. And a…
-
But if it is a more powerful/more energy in each burst shot, maybe it would get a range boost too? Like I believe the Lobi store Tetryon canon from the Hirogen pack? May be interesting as it COULD be new territory. Perhaps its going to be the beam array version of the Dual Heavy Cannon (which do more burst damage than Dual…
-
I would love TOS or TMP or even TNG skins for the Fed vet ship. Always turned off by how completely non-Federation it looks for being THE Federation golden egg. Just wish it had the option for a round or oval saucer, not 23c + warp nacelles, etc. Ship would look amazing with "older" skins I think.
-
Or the Flobee....
-
what ship in DS9 was 4 front torpedo and 2 aft? I don't seem to remember that one at all, but it has been a while since I watched the series. But again you are also focusing on the hardpoint issue. Generally, ENERGY weapons were primary shield droppers, and torpedoes were NOT primary weapons, but would be used with…
-
You're missing my point and that's canon ships don't care about 8 weapons max limit sto has, btw the Galaxy nacelle pylons have 4 phaser strips before the war upgrade, 2 per pylon and IIRC Galaxy also had the strip under the enginering hull that Voyager though these strips aren't seen firing normally. Oh and Connie refit…
-
wut? C store is still full of ships. Are you only on the "Sale" tab? Go down and click on ship. Then the tier ship you want. All there. They haven't removed a single ship. Ever. Still all there.
-
there are exceptions of course. Look at the Defiant. non known rear hardpoints at all? And Galaxy and MOST TNG era ships had 1 massive beam array on top and one below the saucer. Plus 1 torpedo tube forward and 1 aft. And I believe 1 small beam array on the outside of the nacelle pylons? Ent A and Excelsior obviously had…
-
Never said your way of play, or ANY way was wrong or that any other way was "right"? Just saying that as a basic forum search would show, a lot of players would like torpedoes to be more authentic. Also my reference initially WAS my personal preference to play canon loadouts, but in my reply to you my reference to canon…
-
I'm so confused. It's a command CRUISER. They aren't SUPPOSED to be the heavy hitters, either in canon, or in this game. Yes there are builds that work on some cruisers that ALLOW them to do crazy DPS, but you can get their easier in an Escort OR a Sci/space magic build. on solo play, it doesn't matter what class you are…
-
The redoes generally stay pretty close. T6 Galaxy class, Excelsior, Reliant, Nebula, etc. They stick to the same general map and just give it more "modern" lines, and the "new" nacelles. So I wouldn't worry about that. My fear would be that they would release it with just one new skin. So you have a total of two options…
