OMG JUST OMG. THIS IS AWESOME!!!!!!!!!!!!!! DSTAHL YOUR THE MAN AS WELL AS THE WHOLE STO TEAM TYTYTYTYTYTYTY.
Ahem. anyways, its a bout time. this is amazingly well done. i now enjoy flying around sector space alot. you guys make me proud to continue paying for this game. id give you all a big cake for this.
thank you for the video as well. seriously makes me proud right now to be an STO supporter.
It's even cooler when you play the game: stars grow and shrink as you approach and depart them, warp startrails fly by, you can toggle the removal of virtually all astrometrics stuff (on the fly!)
Great stuff and I didn't even show you guys all the sectors!
1 Space feels HUGE
2 Love the transitions of the stars to planets upon approach
3 Warp feels like warp with the moving star field
4 I like it when you hover your mouse over a system the pop up box comes up with a brief description
5 Love the toggle for the astrometrics view to normal space
Cannot wait until I'm done patching. I have seen a couple of people who have been largely critical going gaga over the new sector space. That in itself makes me go "Iwannasee!!!"
HOLY TRIBBLE!! I am so disabling Astrometrics! Did the graphics team do a 2 week EVE Online trial because man sector space look sgorgeous in that Youtube video (Man I still have 53% left on thre download of the Tribble Patch).
This is going to make playing the final featured episodehard tomorrow as - if it wasn' for that episode going Live, I think I'll be on Tribble for the duration until Season 3 hits the Holodeck server. Again, looks AWESOME!
Oh man! THis exceded my WILDEST expectations! Unfortunately, my stupid Tribble Server is bugging out again... Darn you tribble! I swear it's because my name is Martok! Tribble just hates me!
Is sector space travel actually faster, or is this some kind of illusion generated from the combination of the star lines and the lack of reference points that the older, heavy astrometics displays provided? Because it seems faster...

It's strange because the movement seems faster to me as well, but at the same time the sectors feel much larger.

That is amazing. I know I complain about this game a lot, but damn, that is fantastic. I don't think there are enough positive things to say about how great that looks compared to the old Sector Space.
There are some tweaks I think could still be made, but because of how awesome that is I don't even want to bother.
Oh! I didn't even see that the first time. The systems have little blurbs about them as you go by?! :eek: :eek: :eek:
Cryptic. Thank you so much. Somebody give the people who worked on this a raise.
i can't do it! if i play too much tribble i wont even want to go back to live and my only high level toon still isn't max rank yet. If i stay on tribble i'll never be max'd by the time S 3 is released >.>
But i want my new sector space so badl;y *sniffs and wanders off dejectedly *
with THESE improvements, now I feel like the devs could pull off warp travel from the bridge and make it LOOK GOOD. but of course that is further on down the road.
That, that, that, that and that is what I expected to see the first time I fired up the game! Great work guys!!!
On the planet details section it would be neat if there was a list of races one can encounter in instances for it as well as any potential mission one could get and for what level.
Animated video would be nice but that polish that can come at a later date to be sure.

Define animated video. You mean the bridge viewscreen?

Excellent job sir's /salute
Cryptic, give these guys a huge Christmas bonus...
My exact quote. Right before I painfully forced myself off tribble to spread the word to my fleetmates to get on there!

Excellent work on this revamp. It looks glorious
It's part optical and part secret sauce...
Good-bye boxes - hello awesome!
Well, quit holding out. Snap to, soldier!
Oh ****! I forgot you can't enjoy it quite yet - expect another video.

I'm not sure I get what you mean...
The planet info screen that pops up should be animated methinks. Look at the video at 23 seconds (for the first one). The image is static.
Perhaps an animation of the main planet spinning, or a fly-thru of the system, in the "big" info window?
Might be a little too resource intensive for every planet, some of the major ones might be cool, though.
