New Ship Ideas

Hi i think these ships would be a great addition to the game.

After Klingons get ships first

[Archived Post]

i would have listed klingon ships but i have not taken a look at the klingon ships currently in the game yet.

[Archived Post]

klinks need the gorn orion and.... the... nausican ships first :O then maybe some crazy klingon-gorn-orion hybrid ship :O

[Archived Post]

Just an FYI, the saber and Akira are already ingame.

[Archived Post]

nvm...................

I agree but no hybrids-I say.
We need the Gorn , Orion and Nqusican so players of those races in the KDF can have ships to thier races.
And we need new original and old KDF ships. I find it hard to believe that the Klingons have advanced so little in the last hundreds years or more where thier Fleets are concerned.

Personally the main one i want here is the NX enterprise

[Archived Post]

the updated akira is an option for the 3rd commander level feds escort is it not?

[Archived Post]

i dont think so

[Archived Post]

After Klingons get ships first

I have to agree with this 100%...give Klingons some ships 1st !!!

[Archived Post]

There is already an Akira in game.

[Archived Post]

sorry i missed it i did not see anything called akira

The Akira is one of the Heavy Escort variants. Although canon apparently has it as a Cruiser of some sort.

Check this fabulous chart to show you what ships are available so far

I would love to see some nausican/orion ships for the klingons first, but on the fed side...what about the dauntless?

Dauntless isnt a Federation ship. It was an alien trap made to look like a federation ship. So while cool looking it is a bit outside of the canon realm.

Why not just ditch the idea of keeping ships canon and let us make our own?

Have a menu with a bunch of different pieces for each ship type and let us mix and match as we see fit.

Then just have some sort of designation as to which type it is on the players name that you dont need to target the ship to see.
If the ship type is easily identifiable in pvp then it wouldnt cause issues having to figure out how to play against it even if the design is weird.

[Archived Post]

good idea with the make your own ship thing

[Archived Post]

I personally like the idea of totally new ships as well. Ships like the NX should not be part of the 25th century, but the diehard trekkies want all things canon in the game.

[Archived Post]

I cant live without the classics

[Archived Post]

The "Freedom" class you displayed looks a lot like what they had back in the 70s as a "Destroyer" class but updated.

Ideally this would be great. But all ship designs must be approved by CBS, which is why Cryptic has to take their current approach.

well i just thought the freedom would be a nice addition

[Archived Post]

OP, you really gotta research this stuff better. :)

Besides the Sabre and Akira already being in-game...The Nebula's coming in September - there's several threads about it on the forums, because the devs are still finalising its stats and want to know what we think.

The NX-class from 'Enterprise' is also on the list of ships the devs are making. And there are also many threads about it. A lot of folks are unhappy it's (probably) gonna be added because they say it's too old for the era this game's set in. But it IS on the list of upcoming ships.

We will not see the Kelvin design in STO, or Spock's 'Jellyfish' ship. They currently can't use stuff from the new movie, because the STO license is from CBS. But the new film designs are owned exclusively by Paramount. Different companies. Apparently there's some legal hangup to using the ship designs. It's not impossible, but there's no agreement with Paramount right now.

And in any case, we probably won't be getting any new Fed ships for a while after the Nebula hits. Klingon faction ships are the priority right now.
