What about the DOMINION!!!!?? There still out there and the have all of the GAMMA Quadrant not only that but atleast one planet in the Alpha, All because odo comes doesnt mean they will just give up on the other hundred and there female changlin in prison. They would want to reclaim then and still seek order that cant allow a defeat after 10000 years to go by like nothing.

#25: Alyssa Cogley-Shaw is an original character, but is presumably the offspring of Samuel Cogley and Areel Shaw, the opposing attorneys from TOS’s “Court Martial.” Subtle canon references = Cryptic’s forte. One of their fortes, at least.

#29: Taspar eggs. Served live. I have no idea how or why I remember that name. I’m even a little embarrassed.

#19: Eh, you could be right. It doesn’t feel right to me, but I’m not going to read Cryptic the riot act over it — especially if other fans (such as yourself) think I’m seeing out-of-character behavior that isn’t there.

#1 – I believe 8472 will not be a playable race, it would make gameplay unbalanced. However with the introduction of the Cardassians it makes you wonder if they are going to be playable (which looks very possible right now) and whose side they will be on!

#8 – Release date is expected Spring 2010.

#12 – If you look at the main gameplay video you will see a massive Federation vs Borg fight. Its avaliable on StarTrekOnline.com

By the way, what is with the Cardassian “love handle” uniforms. Weird.

Looks like they’ve had a few too many of those gross eggs Picard ate in the “five lights” episode.

Looks like an updated DS9: The Fallen (Best non-ship-based ST game in my opinion).

Still on the fence if I’ll give it a try (maybe the free trial). Real life might make this impossible to keep up with. I’m a “couple hours every couple of weeks” type of gamer.

Thats certainly a Reman in the first land screenshot there, uniform and everything!

Looks good. I also though the social interactions of ST would make it an exceptionally good MMO if done right, just hope it is! Either way, I am excited about my first command :D

History post-Nemesis is interesting…

Is this game canon?!

Sorry, couldn’t resist… (ducks to avoid storm)

I use to love video games, starting with my Atari 2600 for X-mas 77. Then Atari 800 computer in 1980 mainly to play games on. Since my near death in 1989, I have just not craved them, it could be because my head injury slowed my reaction time from hundredths and tenth of a second to tenths to seconds and being partly paralyzed on my left side. I can move things but that is where seconds with much brain work is needed.

As of now I make a good arm chair quarterback or a backseat driver. I’ll be waiting for the headset controllers that Atari has worked on for 5 years now. When those hit the road it will then become how many axises at once can you control. And for that you will need multi independent thought pathways. But then with drugs for fun you get split personalities developing. Which I’m sure the shrinks will love.

“How about we let professionals design a game and see how they do!”

To the records, professionals have done serious crap in the past and ruined
franchises… ;-)
