...is the most exploding one, aka. The most dangerous console...

I am sure some trekkie out there has sat down, looking through all of the star trek franchise to see which console is the one that blows up most often.

Anyone?

    Wouldn't that be the XBox 360 with its "Red Ring of Death?"

    Everywhere I look, people are screaming about how bad Cryptic is.
    What's my position?
    That people should know what they're screaming about!

    Ahaha. Good one, but i was actually interested in the consoles used in the various movies and series. I guess the holodeck in voyager should have an 'honourable' mentioning, though. :eek:

    You mean in the TV shows where the ship would get shot and the bridge crew would get killed by overloading consoles?

    Oh lordy, especially against the Voth it would seem. Within two seconds of activation, my ship was exploding any time they saw the thing. It kills me that Cryptic will add things, but never go back to make sure older systems can accommodate the new additions. It's partly why every thing in game is so terribly broken.

    Since the launch of Season 8, the Pet AI has been ridiculously more useless than ever, and sadly, this console is no exception.

    You mean the greatest spark generator..

    I'd think that would goto bridge interface controls.. those things shoot lightning bolts and violently explode all the time.

    I think I recall seeing more people die onscreen to the bridge controls on the Defiant than anywhere else in the series.

    You would think that in 400 years they would find a way to deal with consoles overloading and killing somebody. :(

    I think the plasma coolant console in galaxy class starships. "enemy is firing, captain" BOOM "Bridge, this is engineering... Coolant leak!"

    Generally in the Movies and shows the consoles that explode in the most horific and violent explosions are ones with non-critical nad or expendable no name crew are standing in front of :)
