Re: Perpetual Entertainment vs Cryptic Studios
As much as I like STO as it is now, it doesn't compare to what could of been from PE. When I first learned that they got the IP and what they wanted to do with it I couldn't of been happier. I will agree that some of the concept ships did look odd like th science ship with a donut saucer, but I think this was an internal concept. The idea of having the essential crew be players was amazing. Where the captain would give orders, navigator would pilot the ship, tactical would deal with the weapons ect. I also loved the ideas of away missions where the medical officer could beam an injured player straight to sickbay. The interiors they showed off were amazing, as well as the concept sketches for different areas of the ship. For alpha they also had a great engine already in place, I never really liked Cryptic's cartoon look. I also like the idea of starting at Starfleet Academy and then being called into active duty. I really wish this made it.
