star trek bridge commander works well as your bridge crew are your user options……picking the race and gender of crew members would be good to give a more customisable aspect to players. an expansion every 6 months with a new race and a few new solar systems would be brilliant…but screenshots so far for this are sketchy.

Yeah, no Mac or Linux support in this first version (as told there before the audience at the convention).

Wow, people here sure make large assumptions based on a few fuzzy pictures. The graphics, from what I can tell from a few fuzzy photos, are the same as the Perpetual design. Particularly space. It looks identical. The ships look great. I don’t see a problem there.

Where the difference may be is in the Character modeling. Just from those fuzzy shots it looks like they have a bit of a comic book style to them. Not cartoony, just stylized. Which is what I believe Perpetual was wanting to go for anyway.

The environments look exactly how Perpetual was going for as well. They look wide open, broad and well detailed. I see no difference. Perpetual didn’t show much, but what they showed looked very similiar to this.

As for the uniforms, well we have no idea if what that pic has are final or not. The game is likely so huge, we probably have tons of options. I did like Perpetuals design choice though.

But whatever, In like 30 minutes we are about to find out a heck of a lot more anyway.

I got my free t-shirt too, and signed up on the website a while back at the first announcement! Always love that free stuff!

I am a bit concerned about the PS3 version, if it indeed materializes, because as anyone that has Guitar Hero knows, you can’t play against players that have different systems, you can only play against other players that have PS3. So I’m hoping that they may have found a way around that problem. But as far as graphics go, every game I have seen on PS3 has had spectacular graphics, so I am hopeful for that!

Perpetual’s idea and concept of the game as well as artwork and screenshots looked faaaar more better than this. This is going to be another crappy game made really fast and without any care for details, just to drain out more money out of ST franchise.

Yes! Free t-shirts! Unfortunately, they only had large and extra large (while I take a medium). I got the large one, and I hope it shrinks in the wash.

Mac users: Use Sun’s VirtualBox (www.virtualbox.org) to install Windows as a virtual desktop running from your Mac OS. It’s free, community supported and very stable. I run it on my MacBook Pro (2007 model) without any problems.

Of course, it means buying a copy of Windows, but at least you can still run Windows software. :) Or go with Parallels or VMware, among other virtualization software, to get Windows functionality.

And #34: AGREED.

“There might be a ship called Enterprise flying around, but it’s probably not the same ship anymore, Most of the characters will have either retired or passed on”

Bad move…

I would think that group ship-crews would work very well. Look at how other MMO’s assign roles in grouping: tank, healer, dps, etc. Why wouldn’t you map similar concepts into Weapons, Medical, Shields etc?
