Yay! There's hope yet!

...Probably not, but the number I get(379.6m) could be considered ?original intent,? a term that I think I will be using from now on, and ?canon? be damned.

Said it before and I'll say it again, if stats are related to parts (Which we still don't actually know) it will define how your ship looks. If they aren't related to your parts in any way expect to see some real creativity. ;)

In the interview about ship customization, the project manager said that stats are not related :D. All stat or gameplay altering upgrades are internal to the ship, and a different system from visual customization! Yay!

In that case, we can prepare ourselves for a real "Frankenstein fleet" :lol:

Oh now the gfx quality increases by 6000 miles? The Cardies are cool [and hopefully on our side for once :P]!

I have to admit, that Keldon looks pretty damn cool. Might be a Galor though. I haven't commited to memory the Cardie ship classes yet. :)

Anyway, I am now sort of thinking about giving in and getting ST: Online. I just hope it doesn't take over my life like with those WoW croonies you hear about all the time, lol.
Can't wait for 2014 to start.

You mean all of the 3 (canon) classes? And it's a Galor.

 I love that! Badlands woo! They'd better not cause too much damage... I'm a bad pilot  :P

The Keldon has a "shell" on its back, like a turtle. It's profile is also slightly thicker than the Galor as well.

I just hope it doesn't take over my life

Play OGame for 2 days and then you're hooked forever till you get your ass kicked. :P I think STO is more like BC in its respects, although I'd imagine it is addictive.

Dammit major, you got there first! :P

I got somewhere first? I must be a better pilot that I thought  :D

 I doubt it'd take over your life, EVE hasn't taken over mine, as a matter of fact I'm quite bored with it now (i.e. I don't have the cash to continue my subscription)

I hope there's more than 3 Cardassian ship classes though...

Hmm...Species 8472...ST: Online Ships. You could start a new thread about it. :P

Although wasn't there a mention somewhere that the Feds and Klinks would both have to come together to fight a fearsome threat?

Unless someone would be willing to completely rebuild BCs model and texture redering system, then no chance. The current version in DS9 FXtended looks great the way it is.

Has there been any new info or screenshots of other Klingon ships or Romulan ships lately?

Hehe, good to see the Cardies shooting someone without losing 50 ships. :P
