On steam theres a bunch of new themepark/sandbox hybrid games comming out. Theres a few comming out for the PS4 and Xbox. The old content is old of course. Windows 98 was better then windows 95 but they were still both peices of TRIBBLE compared to today. You have Everquest 3 which is integrating the Landmarks engine into…
It would be in the developers best personal intrests to strive for content which keeps the attension of the player longer. For me, I know my play style by now. I dont have too much use or intrest in new ships or items. I've found what, to date, works for me. Infact, I only bother getting rep to T5 anymore because I collect…
Id be ok with any attempts at making risa a place to visit year round. and ben sysco loved going fishing on the holodeck. catch, medical treatment, release the fish dude. but the point is so maybe not fishing but im pretty sure they play sports in the future and it might be intresting to see something along those lines.…
i run sto through steam because i bought it on steam when it was p2p when it first came out. if one day that changes after being a lifetime member and putting in a ton of money over the last 4 years im still quitting because i will not put arc on my computer it its bloated code and infringes on my computers resorces. i put…
I agree star trek takes place inside star ships we need ship interiors i mean common how often do you actually see space compared to the interior of the ship in a star trek episode. think about it
Believe me when I say the concept is not lost on me sir. I spent all morning discussing that very issue with my fleet and allied fleets. I have to admit I played SWG and thought to my self wow i cant wait to see what games will look like in 10 years. I even wondered if laws would start comming in to effect because the…
I hope they are serious about it because I chat with a lot of people and my fleet specificly is almost completely filled with lifers and all the people who i have talked to who have an oppinion feel the exact same way I do. Right now in STO its all a thinly vailed illusion of creativity and originality. & to starkaos, I…
Idk it sounds good to me. I just wonder some times if they are simplifying things too much. I mean I know every one wants to get to the end quicker and be the biggest and the baddest and the rep system right now is annoying, but once you get to the end and you are the biggest and baddest the games basically over. You play…
on another note one of my fleet members and i just tryed to play balloon soccer and it didnt work because of how the party popper works but aparently we arnt the first people to try something like that and ive heard people talk about how they play tribble soccer on their starbases. SO i would not say small things like…
I think the Montana landing site would be an awesome addition to the star trek world. But with that said I do feel they need to make places like Vulcan and Andoria more relevant to the game before they add more tourist areas. Not that im arguing against the addition of this land mark by any means.
I read through your proposal link I cant argue with any of it I like all of it and any of it would give me something more to do then see how fast I can make it around ds9 and how big a group of people I can get with one of those party amplifiers. There are other things id like to see but I would not place them above the…
earlier in this thread I said something along the same exact lines. My fleet calls it Qing because one second your on ESD or DS9 and the next second your in your ship in the gamma quadrent shooting borg something Q would totally do to you. As I said when they started the Qing system it was a good stop gap but now that…
Dude you know what im saying. Honestly eve had the ability to walk just a little bit more then you can id play it for ever... I know its a stupid reason but I just need to be able to walk sometimes in a game im playing for hours idk why. But I agree with you assessment of the situation completely and you have done a far…
even if they just allow us to customize our own captains quarters I would be more happy then I am now. All the developers focus on is trying to make things that are fun to do with other people and the funniest part is generally speaking they fail and end up with something that you do have to do with other people but you…
character uniformity seems to be a theme of this game and most other games out there. Sure there are of course things to separate your character from your friends character and your fleet from your friends fleet. Theres just... not horribly many meny of them.
If foundry missions objects were based off a point level and players were given some sort of guidelines with which to built missions there wouldn't be the problems there are now. That's the reason for a "system" in anything sandbox, to give rigidity to and direction to something completely malleable. Otherwise its like…
People live in Dwellings. Kirk had an apartment. Picard, he was off in space for years but his ship was his home. Sysco Lived on DS9. The point is if you don't have a place "to come back to" your not exploring your wandering. Even if the Devs just gave us more customizable ship interiors so we felt like we were home wed…
Bluegeek "There are three things this game still needs to focus on (in broad terms) besides cranking out FE's whenever they can: PvP, Foundry, and Exploration. They also need to work on bringing the RP back into the MMORPG so social interaction has a point. Every other freaking thing is just a luxury that can wait." I…
I don't wanna get too off topic though the point is the time might be coming when the sandbox game takes off even if Everquest Next isn't the next big game and the argument isn't weather it is or isn't its that sandbox has an innate appeal and I don't consider breaking stuff sandbox. See the thing for me is I like star…
I agree completely I have actually put up a big post about this and other things. We need a place that feels like its our home. When STO first came out i was horrified that they didn't even have ship interiors except the bridge. This was changed a few months after the game released and aside from specialty interiors has…
4I am in the same position in star trek. I don't have 17 characters but the characters I do have, have been played so much I have literally nothing left to do in the game except fly from system to system sector to sector. I got my 300 STF accolade 2 years ago, but because theres no game more original out there I keep…
Your absolutely right. And I am a huge ArmA fan have been for a long time and one of the best parts of ArmA even in the normal game is that the game is so detailed for the simulator experience you don't have to even try and boom your a soldier in the middle of a middle eastern desert conflict being airlifted in a Blackhawk…
It doesn't matter how they do it a bunch of my fleet mates and I were just discussing this very topic tonight. regardless of how its done or where its applied in game there is nothing quite as distinct in star trek as the captain standing on his bridge commanding his bridge officers. Its one of the central recurring themes…
I think having The PvE queue tab tell you where the instance location is and give you the ability to transwarp there for money and then queue like normal by talking to someone would go along way to help with immersion. If you got bored easy and wanted to pretend you were flying across the galaxy you could just not…
Next season is going to be more of the same :( just the idea of being able to stand in earth space dock and be able to do purity much any end game mission from there is very displeasing. I don't have any reason to go any where in the game apparently long distance transporting has been perfected lets all just give up our…
Season 8 Sounds sorta fun.... But how long will the fun last this time previous seasons gave me about 2 to 3 weeks of fun. Will there be enough for someone who is done done with the end game like I have bin for years? I don't want to sound rude but I'm not excited by what I read it sounds like more of the same exact focus…
Pen and Paper RPGs although now part of a sub community use to be played by everyone from rock stars to nerds in their moms basements. Those games, weither people like them or not, are what all modern mmos spawned from. You even have a character sheet in star trek online that shows your stats even to this day. In old games…
and your reaction is exactly what I mean when I say people wont pay for subscription any more. Games these days are all focused on showing people a specific side of something. In doing so they leave out much potential in favor of other less impressive avenues. Avenues which don't hit the nail on the head when it comes to…
