As long as the Mods stay alive so will OP and 3 - people play them 'cos they are having fun. An MMORPG will have an overlapping player base with the other Trek games because of the name. Most of the people here are into combat, with some RP. If you don't have starships then you lose a lot of interest. I'm not saying the game won't be a success, it probably will be, but I don't think that it is what a lot of us (which is probably a relatively small number) want. No modding, no showcase for artistic talent or playing "what if" :twisted:

I just don't want to see the MMORPG take place in the 24C. I want it to take place in the 23C. as well I want your word on this Mitch.

I think as the current FAQ states it will take place implicitly in the 24th Century, that's what we are going to get- no doubt 23rd Century 'missions' will be integrated somehow, tho.

I prefer the 23 C to the 24C althought DS9 was up there but I like the 23C.

nah 24th rules, i grew up with picard big grin

I prefer Kirk .

Victory · Lieutenant

Picard was way better than Kirk anyday, and Janeway was just hot..

Then why did Picard always need the protection of Klingons when dealing with Romulans .Kirk never needed any protection as I say Kirk fires first and aswers question later ,Picard anwers question and gets fired at .Kirk is a much classier Captian that is why the majority of trekkers like him as for Janeway well she is Janeway.

Victory · Lieutenant

Aye, but how many ships did Kirk blow up under his command? 2 enterprises and a BOP. How many did Picard? None. Picard wasn't on the Enterprise D when it went down.. so there.

What do you mean Kirk didn't blow up any Enterprises except he put the Enterprise on self destruct to prevent the Klinks from getting a hold of it? He certianly did blow up a BOP and who knows what other Klink ships as his 5 mission was cut short by cancellation.They didn't have good 7 run like TNG the Orignal cast deserved better if it wasn't for them there would be NO Star Trek and No Star Trek gaming.I say Shatner and Nimoy would be better as the producers as well Majel.

Kirk is so not federation
i mean firing first, answering questions later feels more like a klink than a smurf

Victory · Lieutenant

Putting the ship on self destruct sounds a hell of alot like blowing it up to me. and the Enterprise A was all but destroyed. It was damaged to the point that it had to be decommissioned, so I count that as well. and also, if I remember correctly, Kirk never had actual dealings with Romulans, only Klingons. which my Picards time, the Feds and Klinks were allied, so why not use each other's strengths to help one another? I mean, one Warbird was 3 times as big as a Galaxy, so yeah, I'd say it needed a little help.

The Enterprise A wasn't destroyed though and who knows what happened to it as far as I am concerned it is still heading for the star to right.The Enterprise A certianly took more shots from that BOP than the Enterprise D did and look what happened. Btw that is same BOP they blew up. That was the way Kirk did things being the cowboy captian he was.

Victory · Lieutenant

uhhhhhhhh..... huh?

The BOP the attacked the Enterprise D was able to get the shield harmonics and shoot right through their shields. They scored a direct hit on the warp core, causing it to go breech. The fact that the BOP that attacked the A wasn't so strategic with their attacks means it was didn't do as much damage with each shot. save for the one torp that went through the sauser section, even then it was a dud. The torp would have exploded on the outter hull, not go straight through it. and it wasn't the same ship that attacked both ships. true they used the same scene durring the explosion, but it's not the same ship.

The ship I was refering to that Kirk destroyed was the one in Star Trek IV, when they went back in time and came back with whales. the BOP sank in the San Fransico bay.
