BSG got away with it because it put some excellent characters in place right from the beginning with lots of mystery surrounding the cylons. People don't want to tune in week in week out to dark and dreary stuff. Television is completetly different though. Like I say, I'll give it a chance, but it needs a good story and for NuUhura and NuScotty to stop being annoying. Pretty much the Christopher Nolan trend these days. "Into Darkness" will have our crew sporting leather jackets and acting all "Dark". If you look at the projects the writers and JJ Abrams have been involved in recently, it's pretty obvious these guys are all about creating style over substance material.

I think it's very difficult to make a good Star Trek movie in todays world.

Always loved that design and wished they'd incorporated it into the TV series'.

Looks like I can't post links yet, but just look it up on MemoryAlpha.ĭid you grab the Yamato model from Starfleet Command? Been ages since I played that game but I think that's the Midway "Dreadnought" class. Maybe have the fast frigate be the Prometheus class (noted for being the fastest class in Starfleet by Voyagers time), the heavy frigate be the Excelsior refit reflecting it's reduced importance in this timeframe, trop frigate be the Steamrunner, Destroyer be Akria, Nova replace Oberth as Science vessel and the heavy destroyer be something like the Cheyenne class which was made using a reduced sized Galaxy saucer with quad nacelles slapped on the back. It's an official design and was already being used in that role for the Armada games. Maybe have them be the fast frigates (or the Prometheus since it's a newer class being introduced towards the end of this time frame)with the Akira becoming the destroyer (In this time frame weren't all extant Excelsiors refit by then? IIRC from reading fluff years ago fighting insomnia they were only retained in minor roles up to and during the Dominion War keep fleet numbers up for patrolling and escort until newer classes entered service, having them be heavy frigs could reflect their new role being lesser important ships, but still powerful, though obsolescent - a modern equivalent being keeping older battleship and armoured cruisers around for convoy escorting during the World Wars).Īkira's weren't small ships and were built to fill out the "cruiser" role in Star Fleet to use modern naval terminology being medium tier ships meant to form the bulk of battlefleets.įor Torpedo Frigate replace the Nova with the Steamrunner. Shouldn't the Nova replace the Oberth as science vessel? That was its role and its replacement.Īlso the Constellations were older ships and not that powerful, essentially a successor to the Miandas (Reliant from Wrath of Khan) and aged between Kirk and Picards times. Just giving some helpful insight and recommendations.

Once I realized this game had mods after hearing about it yesterday I realized that all it needs is an era upgrading mechanic to introduce new ship models and weapons and retire old ones as you climb the tech tree and you pretty much have BotF2 only with a depth of gameplay that makes the original look like a mobile game in comparison.īear with me not playing this game much yet and not knowing what combat is like, just going on what the listed classes typical do universally in both real life and most space/naval games. What you're basically laying out is a sequel to Birth of the Federation, a game that was simple in design and riddled with bugs (The memory leak forced me to stop playing it in 2000 after months of playing it) but fun as hell in small doses and one that many have been waiting to be picked up again ever since the first one came out in 1999. It would make finacial sense as doing so and allowing a Ent through to DS9 mod would basicaly make the best grand Strategy startrek game out there and porentialy bring ina few hundred more customers. Thing is I dont think it would be too hard for the developer to tweak that.ĭont know if this as been raised with the developer? Yeah been looking at the game and see what you mean how you cant really to a Ent through to DS9 Era mod.
