New series: Boomer Ships for Boomers. 🤔
I want that Valdore So Badly, I hope it comes with Nemisis Uniforms
I wonder what this will look like with the Courier Vanity Shield on it.
I like having a lot of universal seating.
There is only a T5 Aquarius including the Fleet version.
What a unusally looking ship…. thinking V'idar from star trek fleet command or narada from 2009 star trek with the saw like look for one part of the ship! =O
Re-wording his statement so something that is clearer, "They are ok with making some ships medico where they could make them good. But choose not too because they are in control /have the final say/ power. (and flexing their muscles)

Always been a big fan of event ships in game. Past few years they have given us some really great performers.
hehe, I'll have a ship then for my ghostly/demonic captain XD
Gotta say, I do love a good dps ship and I already have those. I also love some of the “weaker” ships that I can fly just for fun. I’ve heard how bad the Hirogen Apex is but that ship is so much fun to fly to me. I put the other Hirogen ship’s console on it and it becomes an amazing Ship to fly , pretty good for a T5U.
I was incredibly discouraged by this stream and Borts comments. I don't care if its a Promo, lockbox or event ship. Some part of the ship needs to appeal to more than just ship fanatics. Good layout, good trait or good console. For me most of the recent releases have offered none of these things for how I like to play the game. I buy ships for two main reasons. I love the look and layout, or they have a trait or console I want for my characters/builds. I won't buy a ship I love the look of if I don't think it'll be a good ship. I definitely won't if the trait and Console are crap. If they started designing ships and making sure that each has at least one thing that makes it desirable (outside of the visuals) wouldn't more players go out of their way to get them?
Also, I was just sitting here watching Bort fumble with his fancy spreadsheets and he's using the STO Wiki? How do they not have a database outside of the game files with all the ships in it? How do we as players continue to have better tools than those that are making this game?
If you are going to be working on a ship with a certain role in mind shouldn't you also bring in an expert to have on stream? There were many players tuning in for that stream that know more about the game and how things work than those building it. Bort had zero fundamental understanding of what each spec is good for….No wonder they nerf things into the ground and either make stuff that either over or underperforms. There is no foresight in these designs because they aren't experts at their game. Jet was the only one working at Cryptic that truly knows and understands STO.
They did all that updates but red shift still messed up
Borticus is so out of touch with the playerbase and what he wants / thinks we want / players actually want, it's frankly concerning.
