i like the station layouts and the bridge setup but i have problems likeing the sector space layout startrek was based arround a vessle set to exsplore the galaxy this is too easy as its a masive map with everything marked. i would have liked it more if you would have made it so i could work sector space from my bridge like say tell my helmsman to lay in a course to a specific location and he take us then shift to ship view in when i enter a system. and the ablilty to hire other players to work an active role on my ship. say i hire my freind as a medical officer or an engenire to look after my crew and ship when in a fight as well as work on away missions with me. i lost alot of intrest when i saw sector space. and the lack of freedom to do things as when every your in a system you have to do a mission to be able to do things. for the price we pay to buy and play the game im exspecting my money to be put to good use on makeing game play better but as it stands im bored of it the mission are too similar and thats basicly all u do as standing still talking and twidling my thumbs is not my style..

    You've got some good ideas. Most of them have been discussed ad nauseum on these forums.

    Cryptic has indicated they will add 'limited' ship interiors at some point in future. When? Your guess is as good as mine.

    As for hiring others to be part of your crew -- how much fun would it be to play your Medical Officer, down in sickbay, when all the action is up on the bridge? Realistically, the only position anyone would ever want to play is Captain.

    Sector space is supposed to be a representation of the nav computer on your ship. You can choose a system from the list and auto-pilot there. It does look exactly like the computer images from some of the movies and TV shows.


    I would like to have the view from inside the ship. You could then ask your Eng BO to take to you where you want to go. This view will have to do til they add function to the bridge in sector space. As far as others playing with you on your ship. That will never happen and would not be something I would ever want to do or see in a MMO. You can work together as a team of ships or a group of captains. So you can work together.

    i agree but not everybody likes to play as captains some people have there own opinions about gameplay i for one would rather enjoy being a medical officer on someone elses ship.

    not every one thinks that way as we all have our opinions about good gameplay i like the idea of working on a ship fore someone else but your point is a good one.

    i agree with this as id love to be a engineer in engeneering and be able to maintain sheilds that would take some stress off capitans so they can focus on the enamy ship other than everything else :)
