YASSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS STO! STO! STO!

🤣

I needed that laugh

Great there now two of them! Opps wrong universe

Not going to lie. I loved the infinity style entrance while thinking to myself "choo choo motherfucker"

Well, at the end of the day, i would prefer the Infinity over every Federation ship :D

@Lc4Hunter no way man. UNSC ships could never stand up to any starfleet vessel

@Tj Dati Without Forerunner tech, for sure. If nothing else, they use titanium for their ships which to Star Trek is ancient and near worthless. A phaser would tear right through that.

I wasn't actually aware of the Infinity scene before this, I haven't played a Halo game before. I intended it as a homage to the USS Odyssey being destroyed by the Jem'hadar, and this being the namesake's revenge. But I'm glad it has resonated with another audience!

Its a hideous POS. Like so many STO designs.

It's one of my favorite Enterprise designs

Agreed!

You must be KIDDING me, the Lexington class Dreadnought should be named the Enterprise, superior, badass and capable of giving a thousand bloody noses to any ship it encounters, a delicated exploratory armed to teeth combat ship like the Sovereign.

​@@stuartemmanuel3735it's a Yorktown/Odyssey with the quantum torpedo Mission Pod. Definitely agree with you and I came back after 12 or so years. Currently in the Enterprise-E Intel Sov.-Class Refit looking to switch command to the Mirror Enterprise-F on this month's anniversary sale

Even so, the bridge is stupidly huge. There is so much wasted space that is just doing nothing

@@weldonwin Big Space for big shows. The Enterprise is about flying the flag as well as fighting battles

@@weldonwin it was bigger before....it looks slightly bigger then the Galaxy's bridge now

@@weldonwin keep in mind the bridge we see is designed in a game with a 3rd person camera, ergo forcing interiors to be built at 1.5 scale to not only provide room for the character, but provide sufficient space for the camera to move around with the player without clipping into anything.

@@aresthecrazy9335 It was also built for a boss battle, so the player + 4 away team members + boss and numerous goons.

That was the F

@@maybetoby The Big E is probably referring to it being an 'E'nterprise, not the hull registry

@@johnwolf2349 lol gotcha

@@maybetoby big E is what sailors call the US Navy's Enterprise, pretty sure that's what he was referencing

@@valerie93_ got it 👍

In STO thanks to the Quantum Slipstream Drive and cracking Transwarp capability the federation has kinda... run out of galaxy at this point.

@@TheDownrankTrain Which is why STO should be roundly ignored.

@@TheDownrankTrain Even within the canon of STO I'm pretty sure the explored space of the galaxy is not even 1/10th of the whole. The in-game map isn't the entire galaxy; it's just the parts that are known.

It makes sense it's going to be already decommissioned, most enterprises lasted around 15 years. Enterprise F could have been launched around 2387, so during time of season 2 it makes it around 15 years.

I think she is being decommissioned because of her age as you think. I, however, believe that the next Enterprise after her will be a upgraded version of the Odyssey. With the Sojourner, Yorktown, Lexington dreadnought and Endeavour subvariants, their is plenty to choose from. They could easily Cristen her the Enterprise G.

@@mrspinner2588 Aside from the NX and A versions being decommissioned at or before 10 years of service what makes that "15 years" is the C and D classes being destroyed so early in their service (in the alternate timeline of TNG finale D is still in service in 2395- 32 years). The original served for 40 years and B class lists 36 years of service before it disappeared and was declared lost. It's already a slap that the Enterprise E hasn't made an appearance since Nemesis aside from an episode of Star Trek Prodigy when it being decomissioned in Star Trek Picard would have made a really great send-off for it and Picard, but if they're already mothballing the F class then what was the point of actually making it canon (though at least it won't mean that STO has to tie itself in knots trying to figure out how to retcon things if F is being decommissioned in Star Trek Picard before it even sees service in STO's timeline).

@@jcohasset23 its beta canon, alpha canon enterprises served up to 15 years

@@mrspinner2588 Still feels like a wasted opportunity and they're going to get to the Enterprise J pretty quickly with how quickly they now go through them.

The Odyssey class is pretty. I also really love the Yorktown and Endeavor variants.

@@elijahogden4502 the Yorktown is life!

Captain Shon is one of my favorite original characters from STO. His appearance as captain of Enterprise in story missions is a strong point of the game.

i dont think "capacity" refers to how many bodies you could physically cram in there like 1950s teenagers in a phone booth. it's more about how much food, air, shelter, sanitation, etc could be provided.

Remember the energy requirements, O2 scrubbers / life support infrastructure, etc.

@@BrowncoatFairy Bodies? If we're talking bodies, maybe we'd hit six figures! No, I'm saying the square footage of the halls _alone_ would dwarf the _total_ square footage of modern supercarriers, which crew 2500-5000. You could give a two-bedroom suite to tens of thousands before running out of room on a kilometer-long ship. .

@@Sky_Guy ugh military nerds are literally the worst. it's almost like a 21st century boat might have different requirements from a literal space ship in outer space.

@@BrowncoatFairy You know, name-calling doesn't need to be your first line of defense. There's plenty of ways to disagree amicably. And the thing is we don't even disagree, I also think it's fine for fantasy ships to have fantasy crew capacity! I just thought its relative emptiness was pretty funny and worth noting; it doesn't go deeper than that.

That I did! Animating the Steamrunner wiggling around was fun :)

@@_Pundus_ You only make the need for STO boats in other games (Empire at War, Bridge Commander and more) WORSE.

Good eye. Thought i was the only one catching this 😀

I saw that too.

Agreed.

Thank you! I was inspired by the shot in Enterprise where the Xindi Aquatic ship is damaged by the expanse, spewing water into space.

The Aquarius first-person-view shot was inspired by the Expanse and BSG, though the other two you mentioned weren't inspired by those respective media. I haven't watched Rogue One or Contact. The warp-into-Jem'Hadar shot was inspired by the USS Odyssey's destruction in DS9, and I wanted the Odyssey-Class Enterprise to have it's revenge. The visual stretching at the end was just a technical thing, because the zoom in was so extreme I wanted to blur the camera's focus for it.

Don’t forget the Halo 4 Spartan Ops intro cutscene! :D

@@UGNAvalon That wasn't intentional! I haven't played a Halo game before when I animated that shot.

@@_Pundus_ Well great minds think alike! 😄That was a great scene, and the whole thing was well-choreographed/directed!

Well Worf did captain the E after Picard's promotion to admiral.

@@maybetoby And Spock did serve as captain of the original when it was serving as a training ship before the events of Star Trek II

@SpacklerStudios yeah, and he was still a captain when Kirk was demoted back to captain. So they both were captain of the Enterprise-A at the same time lol

I hope so too! Alas, not my call

Same! I still remember I was sobbing like a baby because of how beautiful the ship was.

Well they are just going off of STO canon, which does acknowledge the events of shows like Picard (with some finagling lol)

Agreed!! Since The Klingons in STTMP showed up with bumpy ridges on their heads, we've been having to do this!!

Yeah, the Verity is meant to be 97001, per Thomas.

My main has been flying the Avenger and the later variants for a very long time now. Great ship. I like the Odyssey too, in a different role, but it's less fun to fly.

All of the animations in the video are bespoke, done by me!

@@_Pundus_ they are great, good work

It's the Miradorn Theta Heavy Raider!

@@_Pundus_ Cool, cheers. 👍
