well, I got in to the game after about a 3 hr Patch(not unexpected in a Beta I so pose).
I will say over all I am disappointed...
Graphics well bad outdated really, tho I did not hate them(tho the human figures are really bad...I mean I play Guild Wars and that is over 5 years and the humans look much better). The ships are OK but its 2010, Star Trek Armada had better looking ships, and how come I can plow into a Astoriod at full impulse and I take no damage...and Lag well I was told to warp to Sol-Earth and I was on the loading screen for almost an hr and when I finnly arrived there the game kicked me out....
I have a Video of what was supposed to be the Real Star Trek online back when it was being made by Perpetual Entertainment. (this version was set for a 2008 release originally)
if anyone would like to check it out (its mostly art work and the creators talking tho). I can send it to you.
The original concept had the player starting out at the Academy and going to school basically then you get a small Star ship based on your chosen field of study(Security, Science, Engineering etc)
And theses starter ships were so pose to be new unique to the game and your profession.
Also Whats with all the Txt we have to read...How come they could not get people To speak everything....I mean if this was out for the xbox 360 people would laugh at them.... I mean look at Mass Effect I mean I know its not a MMO but that game is what 2 or 3 years old compare the combat graphics(I mean the squad combat with your men) with whats in this game.
Now I am still gonna play threw the Beta, perhaps it gets better..As I do want to finish the Tutorial part and see if i can really go any ware and explore as you are supposed to be able to. I am currently stuck tho on a patrol mission where I think its the Pica system a freator needs help getting to a station but as far as I can tell there is no station...and tho I have no tractor beam when i get close to the freator it basically seems to attach to me and even at 90% impulse I can't seem to go very fast with it near me and the camera acts real odd with it near me, I stop holding my mouse and both my ship and the freator spin 360 degrees and go the opposite way I wanted to go in....
