Re: Cryptic, Neverwinter, and Forge

There is no reason why it can't work in both games and I'm not writing it off. It's just disappointing that once again something isn't being designed for Star Trek Online.

The problem is when creating content to be "Multi-Game Friendly" is that it ends up restricting the games so that none of them break. If you create something purely for one purpose then as long as it works once, fantastic.

I mean look at the engine itself. It wasn't made for Star Trek Online and I'm sick of hearing about how we don't have full 3D space combat/movement.

Will we really be surprised if they release this new "system" and we don't have all the fancy "story-making-super-episode-style" creation tools we expect?

Interesting, but I don't see it as a zero-sum game here. There's no reason user-generated content can't succeed in both games, is there? Just because it's advertised as a feature of the forthcoming game doesn't mean it will be any less fun in STO, does it?

I think creating missions in STO could be a blast! I only tried CoH's content creation stuff 2 or 3 times, and it didn't really hold my attention. But having fans write missions in the Star Trek universe? With all the Trek expertise (Trekspertise?) out there? I'll bet some good stuff comes out of this.

I do wonder if, in the long run, user content will be used for the weekly missions. And why not, if the missions are of high quality?

Wow.. That's slightly disappointing. Like Nick said, it's not like it isn't unheard of but somehow this seems like we're getting a second-hand system made for a new game rather than the brand new content designed for Star Trek Online.

Yes, disappointing.

Voted. To be honest it would be my first pick anyway, I've not even heard of half of those songs/artists, lol. Thanks for giving us a chance to be part of spacefaring history!

Voted for ST theme song, but honestly, I'm kinda disappointed that they used THAT one. The theme for the new movie is so much better! Or hell, the theme from The Next Generation would be good too!
