So, do you 'play a ship' in this game?

If there's not 'more than one person per ship' then it doesn't really seem to capture what Star Trek was all about.

There were no 'small' ships in Star Trek. Everything is about the 'crew.' I want a 'group' to be the equivalent of a 'crew' and you all help out with controlling one ship.

I assume the design of that would be REALLY tough.

I'm going to be spoilt for choice with this and Star Wars. Oh who am I kidding? I'll be doing both!

I don't like the direction they're taking this. That Federation ship in that last picture doesn't follow any of the traditional structural guidelines that Starfleet follows in their hull design. That's always been a major complaint for me in Star Trek games.

I'm curious to see what direction this game is going to take. Star trek franchise has always been kind of a sell out when It came to games. It was more or less, go to A, fight... then B fight. I'm not saying they all were like that all the time. BOTF was one of my favorite games an it wasn't all about the fighting.

I guess it would be nice to see some new scenery in a star trek game. Many might not share in my wishes, but I have always wanted to work an engine room on a star ship, doing repairs and upgrades. To me Star trek was always a bit more about creation then destruction.

I would love a space MMO that wasn't as complex as EVE.

I'm still looking forward to this. I'm excited about all the things that this game is doing differently than other MMOs have tried recently.

I like the idea of your ship being the thing that gets decked out, not necessarily your character. I like the idea of controlling more than on person and having a crew.

And simplified space combat. The opposite of EVE, sounds great.
