I really wish they would redo the way parties work. I want me and my friends to all fill different roles on the same ship, not have our own lieutenants and etc.

Eh, i don't think that would be fun, I like controlling my own ship.
How would that work anyways? What would those people do?
Yes, now I get a place to stay. I've been playing this game for a while and I'm trying to outfit my ship and captain with the best equipment how that I've hit lvl 50.
This makes me want to play it again. I unboxed a Cardassian Cruiser during that lock box thingy and I kinda hated the fact that I wasn't a high enough level to use it. To bad its weak as shit compared to other ships at that level :v:

That was the original concept of the the game before Cryptic took over. Each player was in control of every critical system.

I'd be fine with that as long as it wasn't required to have people and there was AI that could take the Job as well. Requiring real people to man stations would be a scheduling nightmare.

It was loads of fun, each bridge officer was in charge of a specific role like, Command, Flight Control, OPs, Tactical, security, and support stations, that all followed the orders of the Captain and First Officer. Engineering had their own 4-6 man staff there they kept the ship 100%. Damage control teams, defense teams, and medical officers do there thing. And that was pretty much it from what I remember.

Yeah, NPC's were able to take stations.
Sounds like a nightmare.
I like the way it is now.
I might try this out, it's free to play right? or free trial?

The whole system actually worked very. I wish I recorded gameplay.

And it could always be optional, a sort of "hardcore" mode

The way STO is now, that whole system wouldn't work.
Does FP have an active fleet?

Sort of. It's called Fleetpunch Newman. Just post in the STO thread in the MMO section.

100% free to play with no important, necessary, or noticeable missing things from premium. Premium I think gets a few more inventory and duty officer slots, thats about it.

More to it than not, but really nothing important, and if you play the free model long enough they take those restrictions away.

That's a pretty nifty way to execute the premium feature in a MMO. Isn't there an ingame shop, though?
Yea, the C-store. You can either be dumb and buy the cryptic points or you can be smart and just convert in-game currency to cryptic points. There even is an exchange like an auction house that exchanges the currencies.
Also all the stuff in the store is 50% cosmetic and 30% ship variants and another 20% unique ships, none of which are "pay to win"
