TREKKIES! (no insult intended) HEED MY CALL!

Sledgehammer427 · 04-14-09, 10:36 PM

so...im on the market for a Star Trek game (blame the movie...suppressed trekkie for 6 years)

I like kinda big kinda not-so-big with lots of micromanagement...possibly fleet control?

I'm lost, and I haven't played one of these games at all, so please, help?

(2 or 3 trekkie ive seen, KP is the first.) lol
All the trekkies are comeing out of there closets.

The sooner they come out of their closets the sooner we Babylon 5 and/or Battletech fans get to egg them.

The issue is ST fans are not taken very seriously anymore by the Video Game makers.

The best you can do is Star Trek Bridge Commander with one of the mega mods out there for it. Its not great but it is something.

Virtually all the games have been crap and there haven't been many at all recently.

Out of the ones I've tried I've always liked Starfleet Command 2 and 3, even though the dynaverse is pretty buggy (like time stopping in where nothing gets made, and ships stop moving and attacking on their own on the strategic map).

The only thing I know of on the horizon would be that star trek mmo

Star Trek : Bridge Commander + Kobayashi Maru mod = win

There was a fanmade Babylon 5 game.

For a fanmade game, it has some EXCELLENT production values. Still in progress.

Star Trek Bridge Commander was awesome, easily one of the best ST games I've played

kiwi_2005 · 04-15-09, 12:53 PM

Startrek fleet Command 1,2 & 3 are pretty good i personally liked 1 out of all of them. 1 & 2 is of the old Star trek where 3 is of the next generation 'The borg' etc. 3 had slightly better graphics and toned down interface for new players to the game which IMO completely killed the series, maybe that's why there's never been a 4th.

I seccond that one. It's exactly what you're looking for !

NeonSamurai · 04-15-09, 02:50 PM

I liked SFC1, it was a good game, but imho 2 (with the pirates) was the best, SFC3 was also a lot of fun. 2-3 were (and I think still) great semi massive multiplayer games. People still play both of them online to this day last I heard.

As for bridge commander, I have to say that I played the demo, hated it, and went back to SFC 2 at the time.
