Don't get me wrong. I've watched the original to TNG to DS9, Voyager, all movies and even the more recent poor excuse for a Trek series with that guy from Quantum Leap. But an MMO? Granted it may be good. But I don't think it deserves #1. Game play and content is more or less the most important parts of an MMO, but if my toons look retarded, I just can't do it. They all have this dumb look on their face. They better give us a sims like character creator or this game needs to teleport its way off of the #1 spot. This just goes to show you how many nerds there are out there. In fact there probably weren't many on this site to begin with until word got out of this. All of the sudden you see a lot of new members here. Now we gotta put up with the nerd herd.

If you are on a gaming forum and talking about gaming then you are a nerd.

So therefore, you are a nerd.

Logic that one out for me, it's definitely valid.

The correct title for this thread would have been "Star Trek MMO? ROFLMAO Trekkies!!!", but being that the above applies to you, you have no right to imply a negative connotation to the word nerd towards other people.

Thinking the same thing.

How long has trek been around now? 40 odd years, couple of generations floating around still.

At least the Trek nerds would be smart enough not to post in dark red print on a black background.

Wait. You've watched all the ST series AND movies AND admit you like them, but if someone thinks a ST MMO is a great idea, they're a nerd? If anything is ROFLMAO, it's that.

Plus, ratings don't mean that much here. It might be #1 now, but that certainly doesn't mean it's the best up-and-coming MMO.

" They better give us a sims like character creator or this game needs to teleport its way off of the #1 spot."

 

Son... This is cryptic, the company who made most if not all of their buzz from the fact that they have one of the most robust character generator in the industry... I am pretty sure you don't need to worry your frail mental state with the fears of having yo look like a clone of Data.

 

 

This have been a good conversation

"World of WarCraft is held alive solely by the mediocrity of competing products." RendRegen

IMHO, the only thing keeping STO from being a HUGE success was there idea of everyone captaining their own ship.  To me, that decision alone is going to cost the company hundreds of thousands of subscribers.  Sure, player manned crews will be a future expansion, but the problem is, you only get one shot to make a first impression.  I will play this game, but it had the potential to be so much bigger than it will be.

 

Fear not fanbois, we are not trolls, let's take off your tin foil hat and learn what VAPORWARE is:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vaporware

"Vaporware is a term used to describe a software or hardware product that is announced by a developer well in advance of release, but which then fails to emerge after having well exceeded the period of development time that was initially claimed or would normally be expected for the development cycle of a similar product."

Just because you are unique does not mean you are special

Best...thread...evah!

The official forums had a push recently to get people to come here to hype it, so that is probably the biggest reason for STO being ranked so high here.
