Tachyon: The Fringe is a good game. But it only stayed on the shelves for a couple of months. 

No marketing, didn't sell well, so people yanked it.

the lAST really good trek game (that i still play) besides OP (which i retired until i found pestilence's upgrade pack 6 months ago) was klingon academy. I was bored to tears with bridge commender after 3 weeks, but i still mod it even tho i dont play it, Armada about 4 weeks, and A2 about 2 months. I can't see spending another 60 bucks for a game i'll play for a month, then shelf it. If it's that good it'll be around the store shelves for a while then re-released in one of those budget games for 10 bucks next christmas. I just found MOO3 for 4 bucks last month at a computer show still new in the box.

Here's what I see missing in the Star Trek game suite:

  • Need a game with lots (ie. min. 100 plus) of challenging Quests for the single-players (ie. like SWG)
  • Need a game with challenging AI for the single-players (ie. like SWG)
  • Need a game with a persistent MMORG env. for the multi-players to RP in, build up player-based factions, and have  player-based participatory economy (ie. like EVE and SWG and other MMORGS)
  • Need a game that provide tactical depth in space combat simulations for PvP play (ie. like OP)
  • Need a game that provides a lot of racial variety for game play regarding ship customizations (ie. like SFC3) and tactial space battle play (ie. like OP)

If some game publisher can bundle  all the above features in one game in the Star Trek genre then I think it will do well as a subscription game.

Disagree. I would say it would be Elite Force 1 (possibly 2).

  It would be best if you all played this game to keep Trek gaming alive.Karnak nice idea but there is a MMO in the works for Trek gaming and an MMO stlye would be pay to play as for the large bandwidth that is needed unlike GW which uses less much like Dyna.I wouldn't mind knowing more about the FPFs history and the rest of the D2 clans.

I asked about the clans and fleets too and go no answer,.. when I was thinking of joining a fleet I did not want to join the biggest, nor the weakest.  I could not get any data on fleets.  I think they change so much maybe that is tough data to keep a grip on.

Unlikely...more like it's a lot of typing because there is so much "Data".  ;D
You don't see Fleets change much on D2 at all.
They simply fade into a mere shadow of their former selves... :-\
Maybe if you were more specific in what kind of things you want to know... ;)

I counter. The last truly good Trek game was Star Trek: Judgement Rites.

I'm sure everyone's has their own favorite game, but as trek games go I tend more to simulations than shoot-em-ups, and I just hate that Trek game are mostly skewed toward the 'federation'.
YUK !

But I will look around for EF, 1 or 2.

Here's the $64 question: "Will it have Kzinti, Gorn, Lyran, Hydran, or ISC?"

According to some sources, including bethesda soft, it will have Romulan, Federatio, Klingon and Borg.
According to others, there will be Gorn instead of Borg.

Individuality is irrelevant. Self-determination is irrelevant. Negotiation is irrelevant.
Termination is inevitable. Assimilation is inevitable. The End is inevitable.
Fun is illogical. Confort is illogical. Recreation is illogical.
The Standard is inefficient. Peace is inefficient. Diplomacy is inefficient.
Emotion is a design flaw. The Reality is Unreal. The Truth is classified.

Even if its just the standard races Rom, Fed, Klingon, and Borg.. I am sure that the other races will be able to be modded in...
