How many here are going to buy Legacy?
« on: November 06, 2006, 09:17:46 am »
It's coming out in a few weeks.  No persistent dyna-like universe, just a campaign on the dvd and multi-player. Multiplayer action could be pretty intense.

i might for the singleplayer aspect of it but i think multiplay is going to be basic deathmatch style stuff

 :-\

So far, it looks like a souped up SFC3. Hopefully this won't be like ST: Bridge Commander. If I want to watch a Trek battle, I'll watch a Trek episode or ST: BC.  In the meantime, If I want a multi-era game, I can download one of Chris Jones' multi-era mods.

1.  Without any script modification abilities for us non-scripters I may pass on this myself.

2.  As for model replacement, if that is as hard as SFC3 I will definitely pass on this.

3.  Again with a limited number of weapons (e.g., no missiles/carriers/fighters) I won't be terribly interested.

4.  Not unless it has a demo.  The SFC1 demo had the "Repair Roundevous" in its demo which hooked me into the SFC1/EAW/OP series. I can't say that about any other Trek game. Frankly, I'm surprised that if ST: Legacy is such a good game why isn't a demo available now?

SFC: OP keeps getting BETTER over time thanks to all the user modifications out there (i.e., Chris Jones, Firesoul, El-Karnak, Bonk, Nuclear Wessels, Dizzy, et. al....) 

I've been burned too many times by BAD Trek games... I'd like to be proven wrong about this one. In the meantime, I'd really like to read what other folks have to say

Qapla!

  I would listen to the Argus Array podcasts as to what it is you are wanting and Chris Jones knows a lot of info on Legacey.I would download the Argus Array podcast in the General SFC forum.Why there is no demo I am not sure as to why.

I will buy it, though it may have to be ordered online as due to where I live.  I will also try it out, but unless it blows OP away, I will be here still.

I will buy it to support Trek Gaming.   Developers need to see money can be made on this stuff.

Though Like my other games, I'm sure I'll loose interest after I beat it.

I'm having a lot of trouble trying to justify putting out 500 to $600 in upgrades just to play this game.

Not sure if I could take all the stupid, arrogant testosterone posturing crap again. Also in these days of multiple email accounts, cheating is much easier, ie selfconfirming.

CUGS is also offering a league, and last time I looked, it had 4 fleets already signed up.

Definitely buying if they can get it out the door.  It will have way more players than this game unfortunately or fortunately depending on your perspective.  It will be nice to play a trek game with an active enthusiastic player base.

If my system can hack it Legacy sounds like a late-bargain basement ($19.99 so I get real manuals) game, if the reviews indicate that this game is good then I might pick it up on semi-markdown ($29.99).

Not intense / interested enough for me to divert $49.99 at it...

I may just to strip models out of it. It promises to be another 'Bridge Commander' game that favors the Federation- YUK !!
