With out giving anything away... any plans on getting a Yorktown Space Station in STO? Some more social areas would be nice.

    That things is a Computer Programmers Nightmare...
    Probably Thrice as big as ESD is now and a Hell of a lot more convoluted...

    But I would like to see it in the game as well.

    Totally not gonna happen as a proper social area, though I wouldn't mind seeing it during a mission.
    Could work as a mission where Na'kuhl remnants try to
    destroy the USS Franklin in order to doom at least one alternate Federation while you pursue them in the middle of the Swarm.

    Also an opportunity to ask "where is Sulu
    's husband
    ?"

    Incredible design I was very impressed, just got home from the theater I was pleasantly surprised by the entire thing. Though I can see how it'd be Taco's worst nightmare to build. Lol

    Well considering Yorktown station is 16 miles in diameter it's probably not real workable for STO.

    The planet earth is in the game and it's bigger than 16 miles in diameter.

    16 miles? What is the JJverse Federation overcompensating for?

    a sudden and unprovoked attack on a federation vessel by a 10 kilometer vessel of unknown origin carrying weapons and technology orders of magnitudes stronger than anything starfleet possesses, for one thing​​
    Like special weapons from other Star Trek games? Wondering if they can be replicated in STO even a little bit? Check this out: https://forum.arcgames.com/startrekonline/discussion/1262277/a-mostly-comprehensive-guide-to-star-trek-videogame-special-weapons-and-their-sto-equivalents

    It's awesome and really, if they can do the Dyson sphere then they can do this. In a limited way of course. I'd like to see more variety in starbases.

    That whole Yorktown thing is a stupid mess. Designed by some art school drop-out who wanted something 'cool'. Totally impractical. The passageway for the ship, for instance, is EXACTLY the size for the Enterprise. Gonna be a whole lot of remodeling if Starfleet makes a ship a wee bit bigger or a different shape! :D

    Alot of the movie reminded me of the Marvel GotG-ish design look. And the whole black cloud weapon... Didn't Thor take care of that in the Dark World movie? ;)

    Just wait a month or two for them to get desperate for money and then the lock box version of Yorktown Space Station will come out. :p

    Nope. The Aether is part of the Infinity Gauntlet. So isn't gone. And Loki was involved in the resolution of that particular film so some "trickery" is afoot.

    God no! Why would I fact check a perfectly ranty post? ;) And... "Cause you're wrong". You're welcome.

    TBH: That dosen't look like anything Starfleet would ever build...

    No, for the same reasons as above.

    @anazonda

    Who said Starfleet built it? As Encounter at Farpoint and Deep Space Nine showed us Starfleet is more than willing to use facilities constructed by others, including non- Federation members, as Starbase facilities.

    Kinda true of cause...

    That said: DS9 Was a cardassian station under bajoran control, managed by Starfleet (remember: Sisko was ordered to withdraw when there was a bajoran uprising).
    While yes, it's still in STO, you can be sure that one of the first thing starfleet would have done when the Bajorans joined the Federation, was to replace a station that had caused the best engineers in starfleet headaces since day one with a standart starfleet base the second they had the chance.

    Farpoint was not in the federation and never joined (for obvious reasons)

    starfleet worked with the members of the Federation to make Yorktown. it's not purely a starfleet station, but it is a multi-race station.

    as for the entry ways, there are several around the station, and given the shield configuration of the station, it's possible to add larger gateways. note later in the movie, with the franklin and it's size compared to the one the enterprise went through, it was a bit smaller.

    Yes of course I know Farpoint never was in the Federation, but the Enterprise was there to negotiate use of the facility as a Starbase, thus they showed willingness to use facilities not built by Starfleet.

    Just like the NATO coalitions use bases offered to them, say for example in Turkey right now.

    But in other cases, we don't heistate to establish our own bases when we have the opportunity.

    Sorry, I am simply not buying it... Starfleet would not continue to use DS9 as a starbase and with would not have build this monster of a base.

    There is a novel called Planet X that is a cross over between TNG and the X-Men. If they made it a movie Patrick Stewart would have to play both Picard and Xavier!

    And I'd like the Yorktown Station in game as well, not the whole thing obviously, but select locations.

    Also... Wolverine and Worf have a strong respect for each other, Storm and Picard respect each other, and Crusher compared Xavier to Picard.

    And it was apparently a sequel to a comic book that takes place immediately after First Contact?
