Cool twists and turns on planet and space battles and missions
Hilarious starship names
very minor issue...
Overall 97/100 for Cryptic and Atari
umm I think you will find EVE so far has the best space scenery ever in an MMO... if you have no played EVE then your review is lacking in experience....
STO im sure will get around to upgrade the space scenery at some point just like EVE has done... but so far EVE wins hands down in the space scenery department...
Like I said im sure STO will get around to update their space scenery but for now they have more important things...
Don't get me wrong those screen shots of EVE are indeed very nice. But I don't see how they are leaps and bounds better then what is in STO. I feel the space scenes are very impressive in STO, however hopefully in the future, they will make then more diverse. I have seen the exact same cloud formations in many systems. I love the way it looks but it would be nice to have more variety in upcoming patches.
I agree with the OP. This game is awesome. At least for me . I love space battle. And I am not sure what they did from OB to Launch but i really love the ground missions now too. The combo of equipping and training your star ship and your away team for both space and ground missions is a ton of fun.
All I wish is one day we will have the option to toggle the sector space grid on and off. I like sector space as a map tool. but would rather fly around without it.

Dunno 'bout you but I've seen some beautiful space here in STO. And I've played Eve.
