What part of next gen don't you get? The PS4 has some nice specs, more than nice enough to run STO. the game would run fine maxed out. If it can run Planetside 2, it can run STO.
The cluelessness in that response is pretty funny.
dont wat me the console you sooo want this game on will cost you 399.99$ not counting Tax do you think your total going to be exactly 399.99$? what im saying is by the time all is done you will spend very close to 500$ or little over it if you get a game to go with it so you could have got you that desktop and upgraded it over time
This thread makes me laugh. But back to the subject at hand: STO on PS4. I'm in the middle on that subject.
On one hand, it would probably look great on the PS4. But on the other, Cryptic would have to divert loads of resources to making a port to the PS4, drawing it away from where it needs to be. I.E. the PC version of STO. I wouldn't mind it on the PS4, but I'm just saying it's a bad move.
TL;DR version: If you port it over to the PS4, you're going to have a bad time.
Dreadnought class. Two times the size, three times the speed. Advanced weaponry. Modified for a minimal crew. Unlike most Federation vessels, it's built solely for combat.
OH OH put STO on my game console because i want it to be on my gaming console
The OP must be an idiot or at the least incompetent you want a trek console game go find one spend 80-90 bucks and there ya go.
And OP heres a little hint to your ignorance its called STAR TREK ONLINE not Star Trek On PS4.
Ive read another thread just like this and again here we are again and yeah it didnt happen before OP wth makes you think it will happen by posting your idea over and over again.

I know its good to ignore trolls, judging by your photo only you are. However last time I checked the PS4 had this magic little thing called internet. It allows you to play games, you guessed it, ONLINE.
This guy is just adorable. He's not going to put down his whiny entitled attitude until Cryptic caves to his demands and makes the game precisely as bad as he is!

what exactly makes me bad? The fact that I own a console? Ohh wait no that just makes me a ****** according to PC owners.

Your an airhead you know that op?
first my pic is something i found funny
second your a broken record retreading bad ideas
third are you trying to kill the game?
honest OP this is not a good idea its been talked about to many times on this forum if you want trek on your ps4 go buy a trek game.
PWE and cryptic would lose tons of cash just to get this on a PS4 let alone they would have to dumb down the graphics and gameplay they would lose alot of money on this.
also as soon as a new trek console game came along the players that the initial PS4 version would generate would leave for the new shiny.
console gaming is fickle and the majority of players are fickle and will run to a new shiny everytime.

I still believe it would work. But that is just mean. And seeing as how the Community here turns into dickheads at the mention of either JJ Trek, an NX Refit or a Console I find myself having less of a place here as well as refraining from bringing up such matters in the future
Dude, seriously. I've never said anything bad about consoles. I like consoles, I have a 360 and a PS3 here, I enjoy them both. I have a PS4 on pre-order, shocking as it may seem to you. What makes you bad is your continued insistence on having an argument and making something of nothing. You are actually more of a troll than I am by this standard. You want STO on PS4. I understand that. We do not. You do not understand that. We have all elucidated a number of reasons why we don't want this, and you have countered with "BUT LAPTOPS ARE EXPENSIVE". I honestly wasn't trying to be mean, I even stepped back from this to give you the benefit of the doubt. You don't get it, though. You're in a flamewar where you're the only angry person. No one else cares. Its all on you. I'm honestly trying to help you with this response, there's no outcome of this thread that is positive for you other than the one where you find a more productive way to spend your day. I don't want STO on consoles, and I don't think its in the cards. You have made your opinion heard, you have succeeded, you have nothing left to offer the conversation, we are all possessed of an intimate knowledge of why you want STO on PS4, why you think everyone's elitist, etc. I know more about your position on these things than I ever wanted to, trust me, I get it. I really really do.
Just calm down, have a drink, play some games, whatever you want. That is within your power. I am only given dominion over your life as long as you stay in this thread banging your head against a wall. No one here is going to change their mind based on what you have said, and we all know we are not going to change your mind. It is okay to walk away from internet forums!

Ok let me ask you something lets say it happened and STO went on home consoles
then a new trek console game came out with alot more options and shinys then STO with online console gaming.
would you stay on STO or go buy the new game because it has more shinys and other stuff.

Im done arguing this, even Commanderkassy has left awhile ago. As STO is the best ST game and I have invested time and money into It I will never abandon it for any new trek game. Abandoning its community on the otherhand, perhaps.

you may want to re read what i posted, I updated a few seconds later
I did and by saying youd abandon the STO community that is an omission that if the right trek console game came along youd buy it and play it exclusive till a new shiny came along.
Hey dont get all butt hurt alot of gamers are that way especially on consoles my nephew was big into the elder scrolls till dragon age came along then skyrim after that.
If this game went to consoles it would be dead within a year or as soon as a new console trek came along.
Yeah I'm out of here before I bust general devon down to private. This thread went from Hey I want this game on the console to hey let's all make fun of each other and call each other names.

Abandoning the Community does not mean abandoning the game, I can play the game without interacting with others, especially on the forums.

You can't demote a person on the forums. Especially when the outrank you.
I say let them have it, Cryptic/PWE should start up a fund that those who want a PS4 Port can contribute too, if it hits a target within a year then they do it, if not then they don't and the contributors get their money back in Z-points. PS4 version should also have its own servers/shard. That way if either side fails to stay profitable it wont take down its other half.
Edit: I just wanted to add, I don't think Blacklight Retribution is an MMO, I have not played it but the video's/reviews make it look a bit like the online sections of all the popular FPS games without a singe player mode. You join matches rather then having a persistent world to wander around. Planetside2 is more of an MMO since its a massive open world with thousands of players.
Devs already stated that a console port for this game came to within inches of release, but it was shelved due to issues with licencing. So a port already exists, you just can't have it.
Frankly, I don't think technical ability is any barrier for a console release. The game is designed for a mid-range computer and even Battlefield 3 with it's over the top system requirements is running on what is now old hardware on the XBox 360. Hell, STO's requirements are so low that you could probably run it on the Wii-U (which would be quite neat with an LCARS style screen on the touchpad for shield and weapon control! But sadly it'd never happen).
Anyone dreaming about STO getting bumped up to top end graphics on a next-gen console with no graphical glitches is chasing rabbits down a hole though. I'd rather see the game run on PC with most of the glitches removed first. PC users tend to put up with errors a lot more then console users, I can't see Sony or MS being very happy at getting complaints for some of the bugs that slip past QA into this game.

At no point did I say I was unlike any other trekkie, I want it my way.

Its a $400 console, its still cheaper then a $700 laptop to replace my current $300 laptop.
