Atari continues to ramp up its marketing efforts as Star Trek Online's early February launch approaches, this time kicking off a series of narrative-driven trailers (dubbed "Veil of Space") with this Captain's Log of a first episode, titled "Into the Den."

Sporting both space and ground-based action and adventure, the latest PC MMO from Cryptic Studios (Champions Online) formally launches on February 2, with an open beta kicking off in mid-January and pre-order "early start" access on January 29.

This game seriously looks worse every time they release media for it.

I know I'm going to eat my words if I'm wrong, but this game is going to suck, hard. And it pains me to think of the developers shipping a rushed and unfinished Star Trek MMO.

Doesn't look very good :/ Is it just me or does the scale of the bridge look huge? Like the distance between the captain's chair to the viewscreen and the officers in front of him... just looks like WAY too much space. Same with the transporter room/pads... the people look tiny on it.

i think i have to agree with everyone else here.. it does look pretty lousy.. there are plenty of mmo's that look fantastic and can still scale down the graphics to cater to low-end systems.. it's called starting with high-res textures and high-poly models and applying LOD.. i guess this studio hasn't learned how to do that yet...
