    That 'thing' on the website hasn't been put there to show how liberated women are in the 25th century of the enlightened STO universe...

    Seriously, that picture is bad for promotion, if I had just heard of STO right now and went on the website to see how to get it and saw that picture, I would think that this game was a joke.


    Then you don't play many videogames do you.

    Starfleet uniforms should never have jiggly boobage exposed (either sex) unless it's Mirror Universe.

    They should leave the skin to the Klingon faction uniforms.

    "Come join the Klingons, our girls have jiggly boobage" - sounds good to me.

    Not any that have to resort to Space Elves in skirts and exposed cleavage to make me play their game.

    Norway and Yeager dammit... I still want my Typhoon and Jupiter though.
    JJ Trek The Kelvin Timeline is just Trek and it's fully canon... get over it. But I still prefer TAR.

    Likewise.
    That character is over sexualised to the max and it's a Vulcan, come on. The rest of that background is great, but that character needs changed, what was wrong with the old Starfleet Captain shooting the phaser?

    It's actually pretty embrassing, why would I want to link people to a game that shows something so silly.

    Again, likewise.

    "Critics who say that the optimistic utopia Star Trek depicted is now outmoded forget the cultural context that gave birth to it: Star Trek was not a manifestation of optimism when optimism was easy. Star Trek declared a hope for a future that nobody stuck in the present could believe in. For all our struggles today, we haven’t outgrown the need for stories like Star Trek. We need tales of optimism, of heroes, of courage and goodness now as much as we’ve ever needed them."

    It's stupid and needs to be replaced, I don't think it's a coincidence that 'its' cleavage is positioned right above the "Download Now" button.

    Wow, really? You had to go and be like every other video game and put a woman with large TRIBBLE, a short skirt, and a revealing uniform on the front page? That's very sexist and demeaning to women.

    The art isn't exactly accurate, that uniform doesn't have pips that look like that :P

    *nipick*

    But its a great background, it is now my desktop background.

    No, the Fleet Uniform from the fleet starbase upgrades doesn't have those pips. Those pips come from the 29th century uniform, which raises a question: Can I use the 29th Century pips on other uniforms? Because if so, I'll definitely get my hands on the lobi to get it!

    I love fanservice, I have it in my sig. But considering that's a Vulcan? Highly illogical Captain. :D

    When will men get open shirtless tops in game, and women get open tops with undershirts? If those are added, I WILL buy that costume bundle from the C Store. Until then... nope.
    Yes, good-bye, old friend! But... Hello "Pretty Phaser Lady"!!!

    You might need to refresh or clear your cache to see her.

    Cheers,

    Brandon =/\=

    "That is stupid" was my reaction right away. For the reasons quoted below:
    Yeah, as the title suggests, I'm rather ashamed of the new STO website background... Since when did we become Evony Online?

    Seriously? I'm all for having a woman on the main page, but does she have to be spilling out of her top and look like a cheap anime chick?

    Perhaps it's just me...

    Wow that new background is bloody TRIBBLE. That open top should never have been made in the first place. Males get an under shirt, but females luck like that! And justification for this or is it so the little adds for STO make teen boys giggle and subscribe?

    Stupid move.

    Can I remove the background?

    The "Download Now" button is positioned next to something that shouldn't even be there.

    That character is over sexualised to the max and it's a Vulcan, come on. The rest of that background is great, but that character needs changed, what was wrong with the old Starfleet Captain shooting the phaser?

    How exactly does one do that?

    Phaser Dude was definitely a better front page model.

    Vulcan women in illogical tops is a time-honored tradition around here.

    Though the skirt is a bit too much if you ask me.

    The hot top is logical as well is the skirt. That skirt is the perfect place for any heterosexual male to hide under. She will protect us much better than the handsome phaser dude! (unless you're TRIBBLE).

    Dear Prudes,

    Did you never notice Star Trek has always been full of hot women? LOL. I find your outrageous indignation highly amusing.

    Anyway I hope this new image becomes available as a wallpaper ASAP.
