My optimism for "Into Darkness" has finally fizzled out after reading about this. I was really hoping that the reboot could get away from using a crutch in the form of prime actors, and rehashed stories, and rather provide us with completely new Trek adventures. Sadly, this doesn't seem to be the case. :( I will still give…
I agree with thlaylierah, I went in with low expectations, but I have been pleasantly surprise with how much I've enjoyed my time in the game so far. I'm around half way through the story, and plan on wrapping it up this weekend. I wouldn't call it a great game, but I wouldn't say it's bad either. It could have used some…
It all boils down to the UI. With most current MMO's, as well as RTS games, I agree. There is no contest, although there are a select few exceptions to the rule. I whole heartedly disagree for FPS though. Personally, I'll take a gamepad over a keyboard/mouse any day when it comes to that genre. When using older hardware,…
MMO's have no place? Square Enix, SOE, and Trion disagree, just to name a few. Bungie/Activision and even PWE will also be treading the line soon enough. They are most certainly doable, and have already been proven as a recipe for success when done right. I've played loads of very challenging console games, as well as PC…
Gotta love fanboys :D Once upon a time, this was the idea for CO and likely STO. Unfortunately, Cryptic couldn't come to a financial agreement with the console giant(s) and they abandoned ship. Since then the game has moved further, and further away from the possibility of having an enjoyable console port through updates…
While I do completely sympathize with frustration over this, you have to understand that they either released STO when they did, or they lost the license. It's not like Cryptic intentionally rushed things out of the gate by choice (in the case of the game's launch any way ;) )... I am also quite disappointed by the news…
F2P models have always irritated me to some extent. I really do miss the days of all inclusive monthly subscription packages, but the fact is that F2P is the future, like it or not. In PW's defense, I have seen STO production ramped up significantly since the take over, and I still see STO's F2P model as one of, if not THE…
Nah, there are morons everywhere. The biggest contributing factor to this difference you may notice is the fact that PS3s don't come with a headset out of the box. I've still given up on a number of multiplayer matches on PSN because of trolls with a mic. :o
I was once eagerly anticipating and supporting the STO console port(s) before launch, but that fell through, and since then the game has changed quite a bit in such a way that makes a comfortably playable console version extremely unlikely. It's not impossible, but I don't think it's worth the effort, personally.…
I was impressed (coming from someone who's been awfully critical of Sony's past two console offerings). I think Nintendo is behind the game yet again, and Microsoft has alot to live up to. The hardware looks very capable, and while I'm personally not into the built in social aspect and interaction with everything, I see it…
I was a bit frustrated with this as well. I have hardly played in recent months, so remembering which boff was where took a good deal of trial and error. It would be great if your BOFF & Action bar set up was saved with each ship to avoid this. EXCELLENT episode, though. :cool:
Most likely new episode(s), but if it is indeed some form of playable Romulans, I'll be sure to keep my expectations particularly low... :P KDF 1-20 plz.
Not sure if this is related or not, but I have also been experiencing bad video lag, and it came with Season 7. I'm using a Radeon 5770 on Windows 7 64. It seems to be related with 'draw in'. I'm fine if I stand still in the game, but as I move around a map (particularly ground maps), the image freezes up every time new…
In case anyone missed it, a possible solution to the problem is part of tomorrow's patch notes. I've been experiencing some nasty video hangups on a regular basis since Season 7 arrived, using a Radeon 5770, which has basically rendered the game unplayable and driven me off to GW2 (which is fantastic). Hopefully this will…
Yeah, not working for me. :( I did find it here though with no need for any apple software: http://www.movieweb.com/news/star-trek-into-darkness-full-length-trailer
I've been experiencing the exact same issue since S7 arrived on Tribble. I've tried every possible solution I could think of short of buying new hardware, with no success. I've now given up on earning my breen ship as this makes the race daily virtually unplayable. Radeon 5770, latest official drivers, Windows 7 64-bit. No…
How did you download it? Every time I try to select a download option, it just goes to a page showcasing other trailers. I refuse to install quicktime. :)
I've been experiencing alot of video stuttering since S7 arrived as well. It seems to be tied to draw in, as it happens at the same points on any given map, particularly on the ground. I first noticed it on Tribble, and the issue has persisted ever since. I haven't been playing much lately, so I haven't looked into it or…
I clearly remember this as well. And another statement along the lines of Season 7 being one big FE, more or less. To give the team credit, the new grind found in Season 7 does have a more enjoyable feel to it than before, with little tidbits of story, voiceovers and cutscenes sprinkled on here and there. I was pretty…
Agreed. I wanted to be excited for Season 7, and I really was when it was all heresay, rumors and hints of whats to come. When I saw the reality of it, I was quite dissapointed. A new season all about story content? Great! Oh.. no episodes? Just more grind & queue events? :( New STF(s)? Awesome! I've been waiting for the…
I feel obligated to add my "Hell no!" to this thread as well. This item is grossly overpriced. You will get no money from me on this one for sure. Try again.
