is it me or sto lacks serious atmosphere, the only time you really encounter anything like an NPC is a scripted NPC on a scripted mission.
you can fly through klingon space, borg space, fluidic space, without encountering an enemy unless one of those silly DSE's approach you.
theres no seeming life to the universe. no npc ships flying aruond, sure we got some traders, but the space boxes we fly around in are so small and limited with those borders...
whats cryptics plan for this?
i wish they could make a UGC or territory pvp system for season 3 and then spend the rest of the time creating a separate engine to render space in...get rid of those shoe boxes

but the fact remains...OP stated there's a lack of atmosphere" in-game".
who cares about how vast space actually is in the real world...we know that.
OP is talking about in-game atmosphere...... not Sagans' Cosmos.
.
Do you understand how BIG space is and how little life there is in it in comparison to how much there could be?
Hey Arkantos...
Unfortunately, big empty space would not be very much fun to play. We already have people griping about sector space being boring.
The game should be more fun than reality.
i want that game then, where we have to wait 10 years to travel to another system to get a mission.
because there is no warp drive in real life either. and while your at it we should have space shuttles cause we dont got space ships yet.
you following me?
However, this is Star Trek Online not Space Online, and in Star Trek Space is as Gene envisioned a Wild West Frontier full of excitement and adventure, so I do agree STO could use more 'life'.
