Anon are you okay?

If you mean the JJ reboots, first is meh, 2nd is godawful beyond comprehension, and 3rd was pretty great. Beyond really captures how the tone would properly translate from TOS if it were done in the modern day. Shame people were still burned from Into Tardness.
>>
>>387819139
I think STO is loosely based on the first JJ film with Romulus getting blown up by a supernova.
>>
>>387819139

They really captured Leonard Nimoys character well in into darkness, the way he was yelling cocksucker motherfucker while punching khan in the face was just spot on Spock

>>387819139
Sorry, I thought this was the shitty tie in game from the first movie at a glance

I feel like just about anything could be Canon in star trek because of all the alternative dimensions and time lines and shit

Also, I would play Star Trek online if it had a cardassian story line

It came out around the same time as the first film and Romulus being destroyed is unique to that film. It was mostly its own thing, but they were pretty clearly going for a slice of the moviegoing audience.

It's nice to have fully customizable bridge officers so you can make your own crew. Space combat was entertaining for a bit, ground combat was a janky uncomfortable slog. It's an okay game, but it largely missed the tone of the TV shows by nature of being a game that revolves around combat.
>>
>>387819139
Beyond was so weird in that it felt like a proper sequel to the first movie, rather than being The Third Film. Into Darkness was such a fucking bore.

You realize the Galaxy class was made as more or less a space fortress, right? They just put families on it to make it seem more friendly. Starfleet plays innocent and friendly, but the truth is the UFoP are still the top dog in both defense and offense. They were okay with giving up cloaking because they straight up didn't need it. Their spacedocks are on an entirely other level even from Galaxy class. In fact, they were so powerful they kept the Sovereign-class out of the dominion war altogether, just so they had an ace up their sleeve.

They just kept going with the original timeline. The only thing from the movies that happened was Romulus being destroyed. Like the other guy said, they only recently started adding actual stuff from the new movies/alt timeline.

The premise was that Spock failed to stop the supernova that consumed Romulus, and got sent back in time along with an angry Romulan in a high-tech mining vessel, who wants to destroy Vulcan because they didn't save Romulus despite being the only people that even tried.
>>
>>387820856
In the future timeline that Spock Prime and the main baddie are from.
Romulus going BOOM is literally the center plot point of the movie.

So, we're right that they're loosely based off the first film? Sounds about right.

But if the angry romulan went back in time before romulus gets destroyed..cant he just warn his people that get out of there before it gets blown up?

Or is just

That makes sense because instead of going after Earth, or Qo'Nos, he's attacking Vulcan when Spock tried to save his people.

You really need to stop taking this personally. Continuing the established canon of the entire rest of the franchise is not the same as basing the games on the JJ movies. The latter implies themeing, design, etc that is based on the alt timeline designs. This continues the main timeline, where Romulus is destroyed, Spock dies in the chamber, Khan dies activating GENESIS, etc.

You really need to calm down. The implication was clear that the game was heavily influenced by JJ trek, when the truth is it is almost entirely unaffected by it, save for Romulus being destroyed.

>>
>>387823512
The Defiant was the first starfleet warship, it was weapons and armor with everything else stripped down. Just because galaxy class ships were well equipped doesn't mean they were made for war. War ships don't have children, schools, and recreational facilities. If the federation sent a ship full of families off to war I don't think they'd get quite so many people signing up for duty, and they sure as fuck wouldn't risk the flag ship, a symbol of peace and diplomacy unless it was a last resort.

I'm just telling you what you seem to be ignoring, which is that the game is loosely based off the first film.

why the fuck did the best character only get like 1 season. why is tng so fucking bad but well remembered.
>>
>>387824116
As the guy who made that claim, I'm not nearly that invested in this. It was an observation based mostly on the timing of the releases and the tone of the game. Much like how the films were largely action-focused, the game eschews a lot of opportunities for Federation-style diplomacy in favor of an action/combat focus.
>>
>>387824007
The Defiant was the first ship built solely with battle in mind, but that doesn't mean other ships weren't built to put up a fight. The Galaxy-class is used extensively in the Dominion War, when it was still the flagship (as the Sovereign was being kept secret). They used the galaxy-class for peaceful missions while they were at peace, exploration and humanitarian aid, but she was built to fight, and you can take families off ships before sending them to war. Just because it serves multiple uses doesn't mean it wasn't built with surviving a fight as the undisputed victor in mind.

>>
>>387824623
>I'm just pointing it out and people keep sperging out over it.
No, you're sperging out about how people are telling you there's barely anything in it to base on the shitmovies. It is entirely based on the original lore, but had to account for the new movies because they're canon somehow.

People who are pointing things out don't go into assmad mode and call the other people faggots.
>>
>>387825038
I agree with you. It was fans petitioning that prompted them to bring Crusher back too for some reason. I dont think I could describe Dr Crusher without pointing out her relationship with Picard or her son. She's not a really well defined or developed character
>>
>>387824516

Crusher could be replaced by a dog and the show wouldn't be any different.

>>387825038
>>387825390

That's incorrect. Muldar left because she didn't like the direction the show was going. McFadden had originally left because of issues with one of the producers, and by the time Muldar left, he was also gone.

They invited McFadden back when Muldar left.

She was just a bitch and didn't know how to listen to orders. Nothing enjoyable about her character. Also, given the personality and sentience that Data showed, she does need to fuck off and give him some damn respect.
>>387825390
She was a better character, but I'll always remember her for falling in love with some guy in thirteen days. Just a way to she faggot shit in the show.
>>
>>387825543
I also heard she had issues with the make up and prosthetics from the episode where she had that aging condition, and was unwilling to do anything like it again. I think she even said she would never do science fiction again.
>>
>>387825324
Good shitpost. The whole issue was that Romulus blew up and that caused some power split in the galaxy, faggot. Nice to know that the show thought that up. Keep being an autist about your hate for the new movies and pretending that the game isn't loosely based off them though, queer.
>>
>>387825807

She had a real bad time on TNG, behind the scenes. She was on TOS three different times, so she had that to contrast it with.

/v/ fleet was some of the best times Ive had playing a video game. Griefing low level raids by pulling every mob to the respawn and watching the world burn was fun, as. Was Glitching out of the battle area in pvp, making the other team search for ages for us.

https://youtu.be/slM_NnDGqLM

Another great thing to do in pvp was have everyone spec into photonic fleet and watch the enemy team try and fight 16 ships at once. Then you would run away and wait for the super low cooldown to finish. Photonic fleet was so broken
