seriously, i know western developers usual have horrific animation when it comes to combat but this is terrible, static.. and boring looking.. the space combat looks terrific in comparison.. watch any of the ground unit combats.. they are ugly ass hell too, typical of western games... something needs to change! it looks like a laggy pc game from the 90's

Mmmmmmmmmmmmmm fried "beep"
The following statement is false
The previous statement is true
pass me some fried beep
They are just now getting into polishing the ground combat. Cryptic wanted to nail down the space combat before they dove head first into the gound game.
Silly western elistist stogginess
It should look more like an anime because thats what star trek is like, right?
Which ground combat video are you watching?
I played STO at PAX and it was very smooth, especially relative to other MMOs in development. I also played every other MMO there, so i have a good comparison. If you're benchmark is Aion (a non-western MMO), I'd say that STO's combat is much more active and enjoyable. Aion is a little more polished and smooth, but it is also released, where as STO is still in development.
STO devs have already admitted that ground combat needs work too. So like I said, it's got a great active and fun core mechanic, just needs some polish..
Hopefully they will implement some asian grind to smooth things out.
funny i didn't mention any anime, even tho anime does action better then any crappy american cartoon including batman, xmen.. anything really
gears of war is an excellent example of badass combat/atmosphere , character animation, but thats the exception,.. im not saying it has to be that, but anyone whos watch those videos know they are outdated and ugly.
i like trek, but i hope ur right that they are polishing it, because it needs to be as cool as the space battles.
example of ground combat:
avatar moves, stops, stares blankley ahead, no cool battle pose, gets hit starts having a seizure and twitches, stares again, shoots in a non dramatic boring stale way, stares some more.
i know westerners love ugly games cuz they sure love runescape and brag the hell out of darkfall.. but come on folks, get with the times
merowr
you know, the moon looks better here
nothing to see, he's right, move along, onwards to SW:TOR!
Asian games suck ass. So does anime and manga. Silly nonsense. Long live western MMOs!
might I suggest adding in "in my opinion" to the start of this statement. Considering that can't speak for the world when you say something "sucks".
lets see... thats the same attitude that got the car industry bankrupt hahahaha yeah ur the best alright, and comics are dying out and for nerd collectors, manga is for everyone.. whos gonna win in the long run huh? come to think of it.. every western rpg looks like fried hell, with no memorable characters that nobody gives a shit about.
anyways back on topic starwars mmo looks even worst, with retarded wanna be flashy combat that fails miserably, why can't they just make the combat look badass like gears of war... or are the startrek nerds gonna revolt because it looks too cool?

lol ricefarmer, get real, an MMORPG with same graphics and mechanics as gears of war? hmm, maybe in 2015, but not any sooner -.-..... i don't say asian game sucks i don't say western game sucks, i do know that WoW is the best earning MMORPG out there, which is western, lol , :P. i personally dont like asian settings but that doesn't mean the games aren't good. i played Aion chinese open beta, i enjoyed the gameplay but i just hate the setting.... as for SW:ToR, did you even watch the PAX09 Trooper video? its far from flashy, pretty good for an MMO even, in my opinion. star trek space gameplay looks good so far, but the ground combat looks as if its from the year 0...
(ps. the most memorable western character from MMO's, i think like everyone knows Arthas, i mean, even my mother knows him... lol )
I hope Cryptic looks into this so they don't have a repeat of Pirates of the Burning Sea. Another game with reasonably strong ship combat, weak ground combat and missions that forced you onto the ground when you didn't want to be there.
Fried, i am sure to the OP it will be. Since they are expecting something impossible.
They are building games for what most people, with average computer systems, can play on.
Yes it will look a lot like all the other western MMO games. You can only do so much and expect it to run on the systems that most people have.
So, until we all have built in super computers in our heads, yes, most of the games will work with the current hardware:) And so look a lot alike.
maybe i was asking too much, but the animation is really bad! and maybe its an unfair comparison to korean games cuz they are a tiny country wired up the ass and an infrastructure built for the future.
but its not asking much when it suppose to be next gen to get some decent animation, i know for a fact animation shouldn't be that intensive to the bandwidth because its still technically a turn base game like every other mmo.
everyone defending the west always goes back to good old blizzard as a standard for the west... we know blizzard aint exactly a typical company.. and we know games out of the west aint blizzard... so naming 1 company to represent all west is stupid. why can't western companies be like blizzard? beatiful art direction, animation.. memorable characters..

Yep, what we need are graphics featuring 12 yr old asian girls and starships that use rice in the warp core. Truth is if youve seen one asian grinder youve seen them all. Lots of flash and no substance. There is a reason why 90% of them are F2P.

its F2p because its a different system genius, obviously the west is taking note cuz dnd followed the model after their failure, probably due to ugly ass graphics.. rice in warp core?? lol ur just a bias racist.. let me see.. pretty aion girls or... ugly shit faced western mmo game girls? hmmm hard choice..
seems u guys are so conservative even in games.. are u guys part of a feminist group or something? only in this forum does "guys" want hideous chicks in games... yeah go praise runescape some more.. i wonder if these same people complain about super girl wearing a skirt...

I love hot women in games, Aoc has some nice ones. But im not into little girls. And the reason 90t% of asian games are F2P is because no one will pay to play them.

What is so hard ot understand? Its pretty well known that asia has more than its share of child prostitution, especially Korea, and that perversion is reinforced by the female character models used for most asian grinders. I guess it would go unnoticed by those that it appeals to.
Seems like things are getting a bit off topic here.
I would have to say they are still working on the ground combat. I do ahve to agree with something someone else said earlier though. I would much rather spend most of my time in space, and they do seem to have their episodes made to go spend a great deal of time on the ground. This is my biggest fear, because it seems to be forcing us to follow a certain gametype and removing our own personal choice of what to do. If they keep that up it very well will kill my desire to play this game at all.
