To post #23. The bajoran wormhole goes to the Gamma Quadrant… not the Delta Quandrant.
Anyway, I really do not play online games and this is really going to be a let down if not ported to Xbox 360. It would be nice if a developer made a great game of the Star Trek like this but with better graphics and have it play a little bit like halo 3. Four of your best mates exploring or pillaging new worlds.

*Added thought

MMORPG’s promise has always been a “virtual life”. Allow us to have a “virtual life” not one dictated by a script writer in California, or Japan.

First off…Sony tried a bit of a “normal” universe with some combat for those that wanted it. It was called Star Wars Galaxies…albiet, it’s original format.

The problem came when they just wanted those pesky World of Warcraft numbers of subscribers…so, they tried to “focus more on the Galactic Civil War” and also, appeal to the “average gamer” whose so information about Star Wars was “Jedi, and Bounty Hunters”

SWG lost a HUGE amount of it’s fan base with this change of focus.
Cryptic and Atari…if you’re listening, allow us to “live” in the universe. Not necessarilly by being able to fly off in a direction forever. Allow us the CHOICE to be just a farmer, a miner, a merchant, ect. If we WANT to be a Starfleet officer, (or a Klingon Officer) make it something we have to work for…and then make the work WORTH it.

The Jem’Hadar’s ketracel white tubes are running from the back to the neck, instead of the front to the neck! They have no idea what they are doing!!

I have to congratulate whomever decided to change up the art design, at least that used in the promos, to more resemble traditional designs. Overall, the game is looking better and better in regards to the art.

The graphics, however, don’t stand up to close inspection. The animations, where they exist, are really clunky and stiff.

Sadly, this game, while ok on some aspects, isn’t even in the same league as others of it’s breed, like The Old Republic. At least not in terms of on the ground gameplay mechanics, story or looks.

The Enterprise-E looks pretty good. I wish the other ships looked a little more like what we’re used to, though

I’ll try it if there’s an unlockable NX-01 :D I don’t care how obsolete it’d be in the 25th century; if there can be an original Constitution-class, there can be an NX!

Otherwise, snoozes.
