    With the advent of the Shattering of the Klingon Empire, the Federation's engineers found their projects with the Khitomer Alliance on hold or cancelled. However, Starfleet is unlikely to let talented engineers go to waste, and sent them to work on the Yard 39 project, resurrecting the ships of the 2250s with modern technological capabilities. The first ship to result from that hard work is the Walker Light Battlecruiser. The Walker class is a fairly famous ship in Starfleet history, and previous attempts at ressurecting her have been made, including the Georgiou class. However, this is the first ship to marry her classic form and functionality with 2411's latest, bleeding edge tech. The Captains lucky enough to command her will explore the frontiers of the galaxy like never before.

    We did. Yes.

    Also, damn them. That Shenzou looks so damn good.

    The interesting thing I found in the blog is that they are updating all 2250s ships. If they are doing that, expect some of the Temporal ships to get updated, me thinks.

    Hell, maybe they'll give us that T6 Pioneer class we've all been wanting.

    So I REALLY wish they would stop with these ridiculously overpriced bundles and release some stuff that doesn't cost these sorts of prices.

    The carrier bundle was 8000z, the Rom legendary ship is 12k, this new DSC ship is 12k, the Fed legendary bundle was over 20k......what about something for those of us without Scrooge McDuck's bank balance?

    The new ship looks really nice but yet again prices a lot of people out.

    There's nothing but greed left in this game.

    Its a no from me, definitely not interested at that sort of price. And especially not when the 'Year of the Klingon' has been so disappointing.

    This one is an easy "no" for me. I've tried a few times to roll a disco toon, but my interest always fizzles before I even hit level 10, which is saying something given that I've leveled at least 1 or more toons to 65 in every other faction.

    I'm not a hater for the Disco TV show by any means, but the faction's implementation in the game always felt like a cheap parody of the TOS faction implementation to me. Limiting the species options to just Human, Vulcan, and Alien seemed oddly lazy, and the lack of a special "agent" event like the Delta, Temporal, and Gamma agents didn't offer any additional incentive to play, so the only "unique" pieces to the faction are the warp/scan/beamout effects, load screen, and the T1 starter ship I would replace ASAP with something from my T6 library anyway.

    A few visual effects just isn't compelling enough to make me play the FED storyline for the umpteenth time, so stripping off even the slight motivational boost of leveling and jumping straight to the grueling endgame grind right away is just outright offputting for me. The T6 that comes with the bundle looks nice with the new skin, but the new 6th trait sounds lackluster outside of maybe for a tank build. I understand Cryptic is wanting to capitalize on the interest that Discovery Season 3, but the Walker-class appeared in less than half of Season 1's episodes (half of which were of it getting completely trashed, the other half was a mirror version that didn't actually do a lot). Seems like there were better options to capitalize on Disco content as well as better options to offer a "legendary" version to among any faction (Year of Klingon maybe?) rather than a ship class getting its backside handed to it.

    Didn't we just have a freaking legendary bundle released?
    Yes... the Mirror Galaxy Bundle

    We did. Yes.

    Also, damn them. That Shenzou looks so damn good.

    The interesting thing I found in the blog is that they are updating all 2250s ships. If they are doing that, expect some of the Temporal ships to get updated, me thinks.

    Hell, maybe they'll give us that T6 Pioneer class we've all been wanting.
    Yes... *Drools...
    I think I only have the starter 'Walker' that you can take up to T4 or w/e... So I'll most likely grab this because I don't have a T6 version of it or the other cosmetic parts... love me some space barbie Big Grin

    Yeah, but 6,000 Zen for a single ship and a max level token that doesn't even mention insta-upgrading your reputations, (which would be a huge selling point), kinda feels like they're just slapping the word 'Legendary' in front of a T6 ship and charging players a boatload of cash.

    That's pretty much they are doing, yes.

    If they ever release a Legendary Guardian Pack or a new Guardian 3 pack (Intel/Command/MW), I totally admit I'd cave in and buy it.

    Which is also why they are doing these packs. Play on people's love of Star Trek and Star Trek ships.

    When you develop content and then offer a pack to buy, I think it'd have a better impact. Because it's like, "Hey, look. New story and zone to explore. Explore it in this new ship" as opposed to "Fly new ships into same old STF and parse your DPS!"

    I'm mostly wrong though. Clearly everyone is still buying these packs, which is why they continue on this path of only offering cash grabs and no real development in return.

    My completely unapologetic view is that anyone who is going out and buying these legendary bundles is an idiot and also part of the problem for why STO is going down the drain these days.
    All you're doing is saying to Cryptic "why yes I find it totally acceptable to pay insane prices for a load of pixels and useless junk whilst you inject zero new content into the game".
    Every new bundle that sells just gives them more reasons to keep doing it; slowly turning the game into nothing more than a whale hunt for Cryptic's bank account.
    There is nothing in this game left for the average player who doesn't have more money than sense or a massive disposable income to blow on pixels. Some of us lost jobs this year, or were hardly rich to begin with but enjoyed playing the game to escape; saving up to get a few ships a year maybe. Now that type of player is being thoroughly priced out and ignored by the game.

    Players should not be settling for buying such expensive bundles simply because they offer a morsel of space barbie options or have a few fancy looking boffs. There's little value in these bundles compared to what used to be released for the game a few years ago.
    Used to be able to get a bundle of 3 top end ships for 6000z which included 3 different skins (some you could kitbash), all the traits, all the consoles, and they were account unlock and even cross faction for some. Compare that to the Shenzhou......no even close and you are an idiot if you think that bundle is in any way acceptable value.

    I cant say i dont like the look of it but to add value to it, it does need more maybe if the Holo Boffs were account wide and the L65 boost actually boosted half the rep chains or give you a choice of haldff the reps to max along with specilisations maxed on the created toon then yeah.
