I think STO will be great if Cryptic develops the game the way it was announced to be!
1. Open Universe. Go where you want, fight who you want, etc.
2. Interactive. Being able to walk around the WHOLE ship, and when your on duty in Engineering ... you can alter the ships systems. Like during combat you can cut off power to everything except weapons or shields, etc. I want to be able to play around with the controls... not have a point click. I dont like when the game tells you... we need to go to Tigris IV... You open up the navigation control and Surprise Surprise only Tigris IV is listed... wow which do I pick WAIT I Know... is it Tigris IV .... YEY!. Games like that should be left to toddlers and infants.... I have a education.... and surprisgly I can solve puzzles! :O
