    I thought WoW's forums had angry elitist snobs, but I never could have imagined the level STO forums has.:confused:

    I personally like the simple fact that I can make a captain in the Star Trek universe, command a ship, and personalize both my appearance and my abilities. It's truly one of the greatest Star Trek games ever made, because we can play as a character that is truly ours.

    this is true, and while I hate to complain or ask for more, I do sometimes wish for a few more options in customization.....but usually only on KDF or Romulan side....This game as far as I know DOES have the best customization options of any MMO I am aware of.

    As others have posted already, the ability to participate in the Star Trek universe as a game character is the best part for me. The level of customization is also another big plus.

    As much as I enjoy my KDF characters and respect my fellow warriors of the Empire, this made me laugh far too much. Well played, sir.

    Best thing about STO, it's many games at the same time.

    * Voth ground battlezone = Turok & Halo (Turok 64 had robotic dinos & robo T-rex, Voth medic fights just like Halo's Elites, Swarmers are sentinels from halo. They even play the same role. Defense.

    * Voth fortress ship = Star Wars' battle of Endor: attack on death star II. Blow up reactor, then GTFO.

    *STO has a ghostbusters proton weapon, and you kill ghosts with it.

    *STO has a desert level that appears to be a Star Wars planet. (complete with bones, sandworms, Pirates aka sand people/bounty hunters, but no Jawa's or sand speeders)

    So yeah STO gives me a little bit of everything I like. Looking froward to the "Vorlon" (undine) Lock boxes.
    The dress is gold and white. Over 70% people says so. When viewed from a certain screen angle it appears blue and black. The dress displayed on amazon is a blue and black dress, but it's not the same dress in the picture. If you're seeing blue & black you're slightly colored blind. A normal upright screen = white and gold.

    For me, the best thing about STO (apart from the obvious, that it's Star Trek), is that it's an s-f MMO that allows you to play both ground and space based missions, with both styles of combat functioning well and being good fun.

    That's pretty rare. The romance of s-f has always had both those elements, but few games, far less MMOs, have managed to capture them both.
