Now that we're not technically bound by such pesky things as NDAs now, a question to anyone who's been in-game already: Are you able to determine the registry numbers of your ships, or just the names?

From what I seen in the Hailing Frequency Vids and STOKED vids, you can only choose your Ship name. and the ship numbers I've seen are in the 90000s

Ship Customization Tier 1



To quote Jeremy Clarkson:

Quote from: Jeremy Clarkson
Nice.

Can't wait for it to go public. :D
"To live on as we have is to leave behind joy, and love, and companionship, because we know it to be transitory, of the moment. We know it will turn to ash. Only those whose lives are brief can imagine that love is eternal. You should embrace that remarkable illusion. It may be the greatest gift your race has ever received."

 - Lorien

I actually live in Massachusetts - about 20 minutes' drive from the New Hampshire state line. I chose the name primarily because 1)of that proximity and 2)it fit the class, a Nova refit - naming them after small New England states. *chuckles*

I have a question.
I mean you select a ship, and while you level up, you can select a new one (escort, science, cruisers)
But lets say I'm flying with my Intrepid (just an example so think away the Tier levels blabla)
and I select a Sovereign (still an example)
Can I switch between those too, or not?

Okay, now that NDA is officially lifted. Yes you can but are limited to the 90000 series of registry numbers. Due to the time, it makes sense. You can also have the A,B,C ect prefix attached to the registry as well. Once in game and you are finished with the tut, you make the changes at Earth space dock. There is a guy (I forget his name) you go to to change your ships appearance, name (if you change your mind from what you picked at the character creator screen) and registry. 

Here is some of my pics from CB.

You will also notice that AA is off. Cryptic had to disable this function due to some ATI cards having issues. They will enable AA again once they fix this.
