Game as good yes

Kev I love your videos

Play amkngus

Force your friends to play spellbreak that game is super dead

Thank you for making a sponsorship ad actually sound somewhat funny and not like they are holding you hostage.

There's a fishing minigame in Star Trek, fishing? Who'd be eating that shit when food replicators exist? Even the reboots of Star Trek had replicators! Is it like a holodeck simulation of a fishing vacation? Have the creators of this game ever watched Star Trek?!

@@secludedmisanthrope6388 calm down, it's a gummy fish in a holiday pond that Q transport you to doing their annual Christmas event and if you want to get into the lore then you should know that lots of characters have talked about how real food tastes so much better than replicated food and they always prefer to eat real when they can

@@secludedmisanthrope6388 replicator food seems to not taste as good as actual food, at least according to people in universe. Otherwise why would anyone still run a diner back in Earth?

@@zhitchcresttail3387 I'm betting money food from the replicator tastes far better than their combat rations and when Riker made scrambled eggs in a TNG episode and everyone thought it was God awful except Worf.

@@zhitchcresttail3387 Food from a replicator vs freshly cooked food I imagine would be like a microwave dinner vs a home cooked meal or something you'd get from a restaurant. It would come down to the cook, ingredients available on a starship in space and tools available. So the meal is only as good as the availability those things. A starship replicator can make anything in the blink of an eye. Even in DS9 Quark said he would have to pay insane amounts of money/currency or what food items are available from the aliens that visit the star base. There aren't a ton of fresh ingredients being shipped around the vast expanse of space and getting enough to actually cook a meal seems like it would be insanely difficult.

I still have that goddamn game. In my DSi. Oh god. The flashbacks. The fucking hamster noises.

I still have Zhu Zhu Pets and Kung Zhu for the DS

The reply above this for me is from a user with the name x. Is that intended or is this a great coincidence?

PICARD and RIKER: [snickering] Lasers. Quick, Number One, lower our shields.

BEAMS, FIRE AT WILL!

Really a game like GW2 didn't have fishing how did people even find it playable.

The Christmas event includes a fishing game. Klingon style.

I heard "Fire at Tom!" and I was like "Tom Paris?!"

I got kucky and picked it up round the time they were giving away a T6 ship for free, now it's more bearable

On just my main character, I've spent 272 days, 9 hours and 10 seconds in game... I'm not going to check my other 55 characters on this account, nor the 18 characters on other accounts!

That couldn't be farther from my experience. In under a hundred hours I had the Enterprise E. Didn't ever have to do grinding, the story missions were enough to get to level 50-sonething.

@@Sky_Guy - I think they were referring to the Tier 5 or 6 ships that aren’t free. The ship you’re talking about was probably the free T4 version that you get for hitting level 40. The stats are worse than the T5 or T6 (even with level boosting) and they don’t come with any special abilities or consoles. Even though, technically, you could get anything from the Zen store for free by trading your dilithium for Zen Coins, it’d take forever. I actually did that for my first Z-Store ship, it took me over half a year of grinding almost every day. If you really want a T6/endgame ship for free, just wait around for the Summer, Winter, and/or Anniversary Events. They’re not too bad. Most of them aren’t iconic or hero ships, though.

@@CJ-442 I responded specifically to "then just turns into an absolute grind if you want any of the known ships," because there's no way you will ever have to spend real money on the game to collect most of the famous ones, which aren't Tier 5u or 6.

Wow

Yikes

Reason it has a fanbase is because its literally the only good start trek game in existence.

@@seemslegit6203 agreed. A close second would be either bridge commander or Star Trek Legacy

If you see the USS Tugz-A-Lot, thats me. Tiny section 31 escort built around the chains of fire console from the felkiri ship. Its a combat tow truck. Nab 4-5 ships with chains of fire, then just zigzag as you tow them, causing fire dot, collision damage, drop mines and other rear-facing attacks just for good measure. And on the defense tfo... i forget its name, with the 3 stations.... you can instantly clear 1 station at the start. Chains of fire on the battleship, then just hit full impulse ability (the one that gives a huge, short speed boost) and tow it as far away as you can. It will just stay there, out of range and no more battleships will spawn. *terrible commercial jingle* If yer ship's been shot by a borgy bot Call 1-800-Tuggz-A-Lot! 😋 (Xbox version, but im sure the same strategies work on pc)

space barbie you mean right

This is wendy's sir!

Have you played bridge commander

Mechanically, because sto is a clone of champions on it's fundamentals, space combat is permanent superhero flight with static models.

Try no man's sky, it's different I know but I liked the space combat when there was combat n was fun exploring space n building 🤷

Elite Forces isn't the worst game I've ever played, lol. You're right though, it's odd that there aren't many good Star Trek games given the material they have to work with.

Im looking forward to the new game Resurgence set in TNG made by the Telltale team.

Best Star Trek game ever, lmao what a joke. This game is a travesty to any fans of the shows.

@@canman87 You literaly got the holodeck and all the cosmic god like entity and time travel nonsense that literally anything is possible.

Hurq: lol

Laughs in new romulus being level 50 reccomended among level 20 missions

yeah agree fully

A few of the main plot actors here and there. They couldn't afford most of them.

Yeah I've played this game a lot and it does have that classic star trek feel to it, but its not perfect of course and the story quests are the main highlight, also its quite f2p friendly for old mmo standards

@@blisterfingers8169 a few? half the TNG cast is in the game, the entire DS9 main cast minus the 2 siskos are in the game, most of voyagers cast including janeway are in the game now as well as the main cast members from discovery playing key parts in a lot of the newest missions. honestly it seems like a like a lot of the new and returning trek cast are contractually required to do voice work for the game if they want to come back to trek.

@@exilestudios9546 Thats what I was thinking, I found it pretty crazy just how many of the original actors they managed to bring into this. Blister must not have played enough of the game...

sadly... they never really got roles down in STO its more "how do you like to play"... one of my buddies was always an eng using a tac ship... and my tac often had an eng ship... loaded for bear but still... he sucked at dealing with slower turn rates and it was not an issue for me at all really.. i can use any ship type given a few min to set it up and get the skill bars setup... thats actually part of what made sto so fun from the time we started just prior to it going f2p, was how you could choose a combo that suited your play style, and sometimes thats the ship everybody avoids... shit we got free ships back in the day that i swear were "discovery" class or some crap, and people kept saying you couldnt use them for elite runs..so my whole group outfit outs and did runs that night... often split in 2 so we could dominate the scores and have people who gave us crap for our ship choice get salty that if outfit correctly.. it was more then capable... the one really annoying part with new ships is getting the BO's setup and the bloody skills... so man things to place on skill bars... so damn many... thats one place newer mmos tend to do a bit better, hell if it would just auto equip skills for new ship loadouts and let you tweak the layout that would help alot.. but yeah.. the "tank" was often squishier then the redshirt from my exp ;)

I remember seeing the reverse where I was just outside ESD and there was just this giant Vulcan floating space in idle animation.

@@user-kj2fj8qr9l that bug is back it happened to me yesterday 🤣🤣

lmfao where i can see this please@@user-kj2fj8qr9l

Haha im more or less the same, playing for years, have several characters, only use the equipment with the biggest number without knowing exactly what it does, and just spam every skill hoping to kill the bad guys

Is the Foundry still a thing? That was a neat kit with some very talented writers and designers on there.

@@joegrimes9232 I loved the foundry but sadly it seems that its no longer available

Been playing for like 5 years I have no fucking clue either. I just love star trek.🤣

@@josepablobonillajimenez6297 exactly if the number is high I use it no clue if its good or not. 😂

2:43

Aliens get an extra perk too… Bastards…

yeah the game not only isnt dead more people are actively playing it now thanks ot a combination of the return of star trek tv shows as well as the mass exodus of wow players seeking new mmos to spend their time and money in

The game is nowhere near being "dead", its not even hard to play, and their still releasing new missions and content all the time.

Lol

Realistic?! I mean it's fine but.. realistic? C'mon, share what you're smoking.

@@blisterfingers8169 I said realistic to how a STAR TREK ship battle would go. And besides, I do believe star trek is realistic in a lot of ways. Their space travel is what might happen if humans manage to harness Dark Matter.

@@Arcturus_Reaper ok where do i even begin. first off i absolutely love star trek its a fantastic fantasy series but sci-fi it is not and it sure as fuck is not realistic. secondly you are most likely confusing dark matter with anti-matter one is literally just normal matter that we cant see due to there being no sources of light anywhere near it and most likely makes up the majority of matter in the universe and the other is mater with its charges reversed neither are space magic bullshit that would make traveling faster than light possible because and i cannot stress this enough nothing with mass can travel as fast as light end of story.

Klingon Ice Fishing, with a spiked gauntlet no less. It's part of Q's Winter Wonderland, which they all _just_ barely missed. By a couple weeks. Oh well, next year. Or in July, if they decide to do a sort of Winter In July thing again. It's Q, he can do whatever the heck he wants.

@@BNuts They didn't miss it - if you watch, you can see Q hanging out on ESD. They just didn't go there!

Which is funny because tactical does everything while engineers and science characters struggle to keep up.

they say the lost the code but in reality they removed it because players were using the system to skip the intentional grind that the games owners wanted in the game.

Debuff/Nanny builds have always been a thing. You complain about DPSing, but to make a record you need a debuff tank and supports. I'm not sure where you think those builds went.

the vast majority of players use the arc launcher. the game just reported a record number of players last year and more importantly to their share holders record profits. the return of star trek shows combined with massive amounts of players fleeing wow and looking for new MMOs are the only reason this game is still alive

Not hijacked by Khan **yet**

Sto has less players then the new battlefield game your crazy sto sucks

@@null643 So sorry you didn't enjoy it. I found it fun, and the stories immersive. Best _Trek_ currently running, even with CBS doing their best to sabotage the most recent stories. Of course, that ain't saying much.

fair enough

Yes

Curious. I actually prefer ground over space. But maybe that's just because the ground TFOs and ground parts of missions tend to be a bit more story driven and focused than the space ones, at least from my observations.

@@guardianofthehill yeah they are, but the quality is just so so much worse than space.

wait never mind, different Star Trek Online apparently
