Greetings. Yack yack blah blah upstate new york, manufacture things with a press, and yes I like star trek. :D


Trying very hard to like this game but the controls are... wonky. I suspect it's my game-pad/keyboard, I need a proper joystick to get Maximum Woot from the game.

    Welcome to the madhouse. Ten-Forward is best described as "Mixed Nuts", so expect totally weird responses.

    Also good to have someone else that says wonky.

    Finally, I use keyboard and mouse interface while in space and a macro-pad for my toolbar slots and movement on the ground. Makes pvp easier.

    Most of those "Mixed Nuts" are cracked at the very least but most of which are broken. :P Welcome to the game! I prefer my keyboard personally. Once you get used to the keyboard controls, they're really not that bad.

    I was able to set up the controller sort of. I can move forward and back, and sidestep... but I can't turn.

    Mapped the "camera" to one button, but I can only turn left now. It's a start. I suspect I need a D-hat equipped joystick.


    Other than that it's a neat game so far! Running around in tights and pigtails blasting Borg with a sniper-rifle... It's a geekett's dream!

    Welcome to STO!

    Joystick?? Federation Starships?? Bad mix... unless you plan on pulling the Riker Manuever :D

    I find the keyboard+mouse controls to be perfect, personally. Just wish I had a touch sensitive LCARS keyboard to use...

    I am not nearly drunk enough to pull any sort of maneuver on Riker, joystick or not.

    Neural interface. But then again after three beers I'd be mooning the Borg (TRIBBLE-SIMILATE THIS!!) and flashing passing admirals.

    If there was a neural interface in this game, a lot of creepy things would go down in RP intesnive areas that would end with me needing crisis counciling.

    Personally I'd use it to turn my martial arts skills loose and actually use cover like any self respecting rifleman as opposed to running around like a wild man yelling as I fire.

    But I've been called boring <.<

    The controls are not wonky, so it must be you.
    Welcome, captain wonky.

    Haven't been on today, been working an extra shift cleaning a giant injection mold.

    I've convinced someone to loan me his "uber-gaming-controller" I have to... um... well... Nevermind. But it should make the game easier.

    I'm old-skool when it comes to video games. You drive the little person around with a D-pad or stick and mash buttons with your thumb to kill ****... one button also works to open doors and or jump.

    I have a question to ask all new people - it's based on what I'm currently eating. Failure to please me with their answer will result in being shunned:

    What's your favourite flavour Pop Tart?
