^This. Who in the heck would even buy an Xbox One besides the uninformed... Oh wait.
And, really, Xbox One? If someone gift one to me, I resell it...
STO doesn't play well on most computers, so it would be a bit of an effort for them to code and patch the game so that it was stable on both PC and X Box.
Second, they tried to port it X Box before and had a dissagreement with Microsoft as to how they would handle "the business end of things" in that effectively you would have needed 3 subscriptions to be able to play. (Internet, XBL and STO)
Granted STO is free to play now, but I would rather see them invest money and time into creating new content rather than making a useless port to this or any other console.
not to mention the time and effort that would be required to code the game with full controller support.
IMO MMO's should stay away from consoles.
Especially F2P ones.
STO is a computer based mmo.
And besides who the heck wans to buy a new xbox or the new ps4, there gunna be horrible compared to the regular ones.
Only thing good about the next gen consoles is the graphics other then that, it would be useless buying one.

Also, If I was gifted an Xbox one I'd use it as a paper weight. I would say donate to charity but they would never be able to sell it either.
But really out of all the consoles why that one, if it was 360 yeah, but Xbone TRIBBLE that let Microsoft burn for that stupidity, maybe Microsoft will drop the Xbox and focus on their OS, and how Apple and Linux is creeping up on them.
Even that would require a pretty good amount of development- and resources that I don't think Cryptic has. Plus, you'd have to port it over- again something Cryptic does not have the resources for. I doubt PWE does either, considering they don't make console games (that I know of).
There's also licensing and micro-transaction issues.
I understand the OPs interest. I play PC games and console games. I don't have a cable subscription, I have an Xbox 360 with Netflix and Hulu Plus. I will probably end up getting an XBox One. I seriously doubt it will be dead on arrival. Microsoft is doing very well with pre-orders. They may even have the same problem with availability that they had with the surface.
It also has some game-breaking DRM restrictions and is going to float like a lead balloon.
Nah, the Xbone is the exclusive console of the Kazon.
actually, the PS4 is a lot better. mainly because it will be a lot more used games friendly. meaning they wont have the stupid licensing thing XBone has, or if any sort of DRM is incorporated it'll be upto the game makers to decide, not sony.
You would think so, but all joking aside, millions will buy it. Given that it and the ps4 are using an x86 arch, we should be seeing some great homebrew mods pop up that may make it worth owning eventually.
And something that's going to be spying on me and recording my actions online, **** that.
sooo this^^^^ this also now tells me why the borg don't want them
system Lord Baal is dead
I don't see why it be a problem for the fan's since nobody is forced to play the port.
Anyway I have been asking for a port since the original demo that was shown off at Eurogamer but I guess it might happen.
Plus Microsoft are already trying to change the policy's here:
"An internet connection will not be required to play offline Xbox One games ? After a one-time system set-up with a new Xbox One, you can play any disc based game without ever connecting online again. There is no 24 hour connection requirement and you can take your Xbox One anywhere you want and play your games, just like on Xbox 360.
Trade-in, lend, resell, gift, and rent disc based games just like you do today ? There will be no limitations to using and sharing games, it will work just as it does today on Xbox 360."

Whatever backpedaling MS may do about their console is irrelevant. It's still a use of development time to completely rework the controls for a console system. It wouldn't surprise me if they wanted to do that rather than make content though.
I would rather OUR developers coding OUR Personal Computer MMO focus on adding content to OUR PC MMO instead of them NOT working on OUR MMO and porting OUR PC MMO over to YOUR CONSOLE so YOU can play it with a handheld Controller.
Better still, how about YOU get a USB X-Box controller and program it to work with OUR PC MMO!

Nothing forcing you to play on the console, I already have usb an option for the 360, that doesn't mean the Xbox One will work with the pc. Once again I did say NOTHING forcing you to play the port. :rolleyes:
I play console's because it's quicker to get into a game than the pc. :rolleyes:
I don't mind pc's but I'm a pc/console gamer so it's nice to switch between the 2.
It's not that hard to reconfigure a few control's. :rolleyes:

It's not that much work to start a PC game vs a console game. What is your point? I'm not even getting into this argument again. I have yet to see a rational reason for even buying an xbox one aside from a PC is just too hard for some to figure out.
The company announced it is dropping two major features of its next-generation console: regular online authenticity checks required to play video games offline and restrictions on what players can do with games after purchase.
Oh this is news to me. Did Microsoft finally realize they where about to have a terrible quarterly when it came to sales of a limited function pc with rented software? I hope they fired the morons that thought that up to begin with.
Nah, they realized that even though Steam gets away with more restrictive policies, the majority of gamers are raging hypocrites.
The point, which I think you missed was not that the port shouldn't exist, but the effort that they use to create the port and make it work cross platform (no matter how easy you might think that is) would be better spent on them developing new content for this game and or making it run properly on the PCs it's currently running on.
The game has a number of problems and bugs not to mention server instability. Would it not be better to make sure these are solved first?
Those sales that steam has makes up for it...unlike Xbox live.
