Hmm, not really my type of game, more into capital/multi-crew ships. ED is supposedly adding them sometime later, but who knows when that is. Also the space combat looks a bit on the basic side.
Does Dangerous have a dedicated PvP arena like Star Citizen?
SC...
1) is a scam
2) even if 1 is wrong isn't RELEASED until 2016
Elite is out Dec 14, 2014... as in launched. Hit youtube and watch some vids... yes its full on PvP. Pirating.. bounty hunting its all there.
The main difference in my mind... Chris Roberts was broke and couldn't get anyone with money to back him from day one so he begged on the internets for fans of his 20+ year old games to gift him a multi million dollar company that I think everyone knows he will sell to EA at some point.
David Braben yes did turn to kickstarter as well... difference being he wasn't broke had investors and had a good chunk of the game already done when he asked for some $.
I'm not a big fan of the trend of gifting Devs free cash to make a game the intend to sell... if I had to pick which game will in fact happen though. Its obvious that would be ED as they have announced a launch date... from there I am sure they will expand it plenty, its how they will continue to make $.

and it looks like armada 3 mod for sins is releasing on Dec 15th, if anyone is looking for an alternative trek fix. gee cryptic, its like we don't have to keep putting up with all this grind and imbalance anymore.

Thanks for posting info about Armada 3... I wasn't aware of that mod. :-)
Pvp in this game has always been disappointing for me, but then as time goes on, STO as a whole is becoming more and more unattractive for the same reasons why many other players have previously stated. Unfortunately, other games like ED and SC do not appeal to me as well since they are first person cockpit fighters.
DR had a bad release and xp role back killed it for me as well. Plus I just lost of faith in cryptic a customer can only take so much. So my cash is flowing to SC theses days. Robert is pushing game development with SC and with no publisher no one to push release or ruin the game.
After watch PAX AUS, the FPS is going to be top notch. What people don't realize is its not going to be a dogfight simulator its going to be a SPACE SIMULATOR.
I personally hate the dog-fighting what I love is the diversity of what you can do and career you can choose..
If you hate dog fighting you can run turrets and hire a pilot, command marines, captain a cruise ship and profit on transports, explore = 100% new solar system you can actually be first to step foot in the system, take over space station or capital ships, and anything is possible.
Character death , consequence for your action.
He is try to do something that all other games have failed because of greedy publishers. One million a week in donation is going to allow him to complete it. I held off for awhile but I rather put my money here in a chance to have a great game, rather it get wasted by cryptics horrible choices.

Oh you actually think it's going to be a real thing, I am laughing even harder now.

BWAHAHASHAHAHAHAHAHAWO9IFJQAIE28UE23H Jeebus Crust have I got some bad news for you.
SC come out 2016.. until now it is not even close to finished.
Very true. Of course if people really want that style of a game now from a developer that hasn't pulled a 60+ million dollar scam. ED has a release date set now for December 14th.
Happened a couple months ago when Cryptic charged my credit card without me purchasing anything or giving anything in return. Yeah, if Cryptic steals money from you and you find out you get banned.
Hey Cryptic... I haven't logged in for a week and I haven't missed it. Every time I think about logging in, I just keep thinking how much I don't want to jump through your grinding hoops and how much, more than ever before, pvp is a joke.
You've lost your hold over me, cryptic. You guys are truly the most greedy, clueless developers I have seen in awhile. Thank you, cryptic.. because of you, the things I have been putting aside for awhile are now being finished in lieu of playing your overly expensive game where the ships I enjoy playing aren't even playable anymore with my style of playing.
When you start asking the pvp community what they want and how they want it and then doing it, then I might be more inclined to grace you with my presence and my wallet.

This is just sad. If you have ever let STO get in the way of you doing anything else you have serious issues.

Of course I got unbanned, eventually.
Ah, you were caught not using your CC to purchase zen, clearly an exploit that you were punished for. I'm surprised you weren't de-leveled and all your currency removed since this is such a huge exploit to cryptic. ^^

Nothing that was imminently important or I could not have afforded to continue to pay for the game... duh... therefore I have no serious issues.
