Okay. I'll bite. Because the only other NPC Federation Caitian I know of has almost no taste for exploration and would rather man a terminal within Earth Space Dock...
Next thing we know, an "official" contest shows up where the winners become NPCs in the game. Mind you they'll just stand around doing nothing or promoting the game's Transaction Store (can't really call them microtransactions when the ships cost near $40, can we). And the winners MAY be forced to rename/reinvent their…
And now I'm curious. What would it be like to live in a galaxy like that. With gravity around so strong that it could bend space-time... I can only imagine how chaotic things would be (assuming we could even survive in that environment)...
I'm expecting it to follow SWTOR and the upcoming F2P model for WoW... Set up to "encourage" you to subscribe. Still, I'll wait and see what'll happen with this title...
Hmm... I think I'll stick to the game I'm currently playing along with STO... A game my current Avatar comes from. At least the ground rides are free (when you hit level 14 that is) and you can craft and use gliders when you start. :) And of course Star Trek Online gives you free staships...
If I'm not playing STO, then I'm probably playing Firefall at YOUR midnight... At MY midnight I'm usually at work so... *sees all the Sulu references* And here I thought he went back in time a couple million years, got himself a robot body, and became one of the Thirteen Primes of Cybertron (the Archivist, I believe)...
Here's another sign that STO might be dead in space... ...if evidence surfaces that a gigantic video game publisher has somehow (possibly through underhanded means) gained control of Star Trek Online... "You want to explore that planet? Please pay $5 to beam down..."
We'll know when STO is dead when... ...an "official" manga and anime come out based on it... ...a movie about STO directed by Uwe Bol is announced... ...and... ...Catstarsto is made an official character of STO (complete with voiceovers by the character's creator)... :)
Thanks for the ideas and suggestions, guys. I'm working on the basics of the story at the moment, but I eventually want the player to get the backstory via interactsions with the locals of both sides. This isn't the first contact for this race. In fact, part of the story is how they reach out to the Federation upon…
I understand that Tuvok can't use his line from Spaceballs (I don't think that exact line fits the character anyway), but now I take it that no matter what language is used you just can't use famous lines from other works without permission? Great. I have this image the player facing B'vat in a large dining hall. He's…
Space: 1999. Watched it a very long time ago. That one episode where they landed on this planet, one of the crew ate some berries... and suddenly they found themselves on trial for murder with a bunch of Redwood trees as the judges... I would've suggested SDF Macross, but then there's this...…
Maybe he's keeping that scar as a reminder to himself what would happen if he didn't stay alert while in a hostile environment? Not sure... I'm sure everyone knows this, but that attack that Luke suffered was added in after Mark Hamill got into a motorcycle accident between the two Star Wars movies (and got the face deco…
According to the game's veterans, there's a lot of changes. I only started on the game last September, but the thought of owning a motorcycle with oversized tires wore off. I go back once in a while (but keep getting driven back by the huge patches they have for their updates). I guess in the end I'd rather have a starship…
Other than STO, I play Minecraft, Firefall (FPS/MMO shooter), Five Nights at Freddy's 1 and 2 (both on my tablet), Neverwinter, Champions Online, and the various games I have on my XB360 (Mass Effect, Street Fighter, Deathsmiles, Trouble Witch). And I play around with Darkbasic Professional from time to time to try and…
At least yours gave out on you. Mine got stolen (yeah... just the hard drive, not the console). Oh, well... at least STO is there to hold you up 'til you get the XBox ONE. :)
My only question is this... will Paramount listen to the fans? You know how some of these companies view the fandom of any work as complete and total morons...
Great... I can see it now... a Star Trek based "reality show" centered on a Ferengi merchant and his adventures throughout the universe, buying and selling stuff (and the difficulties of the business)... Might sell well with the other races of Star Trek, but his fellow Ferengi would be upset (the show could possibly reveal…
Ow... an hour long... I'll give it a listen later. edit: And I ran into this video... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Mhz9OXy86a0 And now I'm wondering... is Star Trek Online doing F2P the right way (compared to other MMOs)?
Makes me wonder if cooking shows can be considered "reality" shows... including that one show the Klingons would find disgusting because it involves cooks paying money to sabotage each other...
Whoa... I guess I should've been more clear. I was thinking more on the lines of new ship classes based on the Miranda design. Just like what happened with the way the Constitution went with the Galaxy, Sovereign and Odyssey designs. x_x
So where does the player fit in all of this? For what I have so far, the player is meeting with the escaped faction so they can begin their integration with the Federation. So why I ask whether the hostile faction would try to follow the targets of their persecution or not? Well... The Federation player will end up dealing…
I only know of one candidate. He was on Web Soup. They took his video and put it in the Web Soup Rave Generator... Oh.. and it's this video... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xvQeFlYKQFU
