Gromnir Posted June 16, 2009 Posted June 16, 2009 am wanting a star trek crpg 'bout as much as we is looking forward to a serious case of jock itch.Whatever would we do without your exuberant enthusiasm? am not certain, but am guessing that a handful o' you would be locked in a serious debate 'bout how transporter technology is plausible/implausible. HA! Good Fun!

Monte Carlo Posted June 16, 2009 Posted June 16, 2009 Does anyone, honestly, think that a developer given the Star Trek licence to play with would be allowed to craft a deep, rich CRPG that allowed the player to have much fun as a Klingon or Romulan as it would a pointy-eared Star Fleet tech officer? Clearly it wasn't disingenuous. If you think my comments lacked sincerity then I'm not sure what to think. disingenuous with the meaning "playfully insincere, faux-na

HA! Good Fun! Aww, Grommy. Don't be so grumpy. We've already had plenty of that. Surely a few rabid canon deathmatches every now and then aren't that bad! Besides, everyone knows that transporter tech is a very accepted and plausible element of the franchise. Time travel on the other hand... OMG lame! - When he is best, he is a little worse than a man, and when he is worst, he is little better than a beast.

Purkake Posted June 16, 2009 Posted June 16, 2009 Woah, this thread is really going places. Star Trek geeks don't disappoint.

Darth InSidious Posted June 16, 2009 Posted June 16, 2009 I would be happy if they actually made a good Star Trek game. I hate to sound repetitive, but... How strange, then, that there were so many good ST games to come out of Interplay in the 1990s/early 2000s, and indeed generally - The 25th Anniversary, Elite Force/2, The Fallen, the Starfleet Command series, Armada/2, etc. This particularly rapid, unintelligible patter isn't generally heard, and if it is, it doesn't matter.
Aristes Posted June 16, 2009 Posted June 16, 2009 I haven't heard of those games, so I don't know if you're being facetious or not. Were those good games? I mean, I don't like the Star Trek setting in particular, but I don't turn my nose at a good game either.
Calax Posted June 16, 2009 Posted June 16, 2009 I haven't heard of those games, so I don't know if you're being facetious or not. Were those good games? I mean, I don't like the Star Trek setting in particular, but I don't turn my nose at a good game either. Command was the only game I thought wasn't just a reskin overall... Eliteforce was a generic shooter with a star trek skin, and armada was the same thing but with RTS mechanics. They did have a few unique things but the most remarkable about them that I remember is the star trek decour, and (in Armada) a new resource. but Command actually had you running around as the captain of a ship doing missions and trying to save the universe etc. More combat than a season of trek in it, but it was overall pretty good (if complicated). Victor of the 5 year fan fic competition! Kevin Butler will awesome your face off.
Oner Posted June 17, 2009 Posted June 17, 2009 Eliteforce was a generic shooter with a star trek skin Like every other Raven FPS. And it was a fun generic shooter. Like every other Raven FPS.

Darth InSidious Posted June 17, 2009 Posted June 17, 2009 To be fair, EF2 had the whole tricorder thing, which was cool and rather different. And probably a load of other stuff I can't remember. Mu PC at the time only just met the minimum requirements, IIRC. And lag in an FPS is no fun. This particularly rapid, unintelligible patter isn't generally heard, and if it is, it doesn't matter.
HoonDing Posted June 17, 2009 Posted June 17, 2009 Star Trek: Bridge Commander was a pretty good game IIRC. Never finished it, though. The ending of the words is ALMSIVI.

Skazz Posted March 4, 2020 Posted March 4, 2020 Hot damn, this topic is 11 years old! Also, that post in "Today - what you've done" suddenly makes sense! But seriously, guys - give us a Star Trek RPG! 1
Hurlshort Posted March 4, 2020 Posted March 4, 2020 I can't believe Hoonding has been posting for over a decade.
213374U Posted March 4, 2020 Posted March 4, 2020 Posts here are from before he moved to Absurdistan, though. (but yeah, give us Star Trek RPG) - When he is best, he is a little worse than a man, and when he is worst, he is little better than a beast.
ComradeYellow Posted March 4, 2020 Posted March 4, 2020 I'd prefer something original rather than digging up decades old themes but I guess we can't hope for that in these very culturally unoriginal times, now, can we?
