Before I start a big wright up, I would like to see how many people would be interested in a Halo RP. Hopefully we can get four or five people going on this. Frelance will be Co-DMing this with me, so when I'm out of ideas he'll jump in. It also alleviates some creative pressure off me, and keeps it simple if we want to split the group up.

My Story ideas so far are a jumble. One that I'm particularly attached to at the moment involves a group of Spartan 4s that are working in tandem with an ONI research team. They're tasked with surveying and clearing a surviving piece of the ark that was thrown clear of the explosion, and is now in close orbit around a large sun. I'm thinking of having a rouge element to one of my plot drivers, some conflict with the Ark's defenses itself, and have ONI have a hidden Agenda as always.

I'm open for suggestions.

Frelance

I am just posting to confirm my position in this. Hope to find some interest for this.

I am tentatively interested. However, while I am familiar with the setting of Halo, and the general storyline of the mythos, I'm not all that familiar with the difference in Spartan programs.

Thank you both for your interest. Between RabbitJanitor and myself we should be able to explain the differences between the spartan programs. I will post here again once we have that information in the first or second post of the thread.

 The Halo Wiki is your friend: http://halo.wikia.com/wiki/SPARTAN-IV_Program

And I found this, http://veegie.com/Vanity/ , and am going to try it out.

My suggestion for a game is to have it set where the canon of Halo won't touch it too much. Maybe we encounter some aliens that aren't part of the Covenant. Maybe we find a breakoff group from them. Either way, it keeps you guys from having to worry too much about bumping into canon.

Ah, whoops. For some reason, I got the program name mixed up with the armor name. I'm a bit familiar with the Spartan 4 program.

Wonderful! People are Interested and I am happy for that.

That Vanity program could be useful. I always liked the look of the Reach armor sets over the other ones, gave it more of a grittier worked in feel to all of it. I'm not too picky over what armor sets you want to use, My main plot driver will be using the spartan armor. If you do have the game using screen shots of an armor set you've built great. If not, contact me and we can organize something and I can hop on mine and get a picture. Unfortunately My Xbox is elsewhere for the weekend, so I cant do it now.

Spoiler: Click to Show/Hide
This Image is actually from the Beta. Strangely I don't have any from the full game.

I completely agree with staying away from canon. I was thinking of bringing 343 Guilty Spark into the story at some point.

Carlissa

I'll be keeping an eye on this. I have limited knowledge on the Halo Universe (Only playing the core Halo games), and I stopped playing Spartan Ops  a few months ago when I moved and lost internet connection for my Xbox (I have the old white one and have to use a cable to get internet, and my Xbox cant reach the motem...). I hope this isnt a problem, since I've been interested in playing a Halo RP for some time.

 I'm gonna wait to see what sort of character creation guidelines and such are set up....
Call me Shadow

RabbitJanitor

Character guide lines: For those of you that are not completely into the Lore, the first spartan programs pulled candidates from a pool of genetically selected seven to ten year old kids, kidnapped them and then trained them from there. The Spartan 4s were the first that didn't have to steal children from families, so having a prior military history should be filled out. It doesn't need to be really detailed, maybe mention the character's bit of training, and a battle they were in that pushed them to apply for the S4 program (7 years of training). You're also working for ONI, so you've gotta have something exceptional in your history.

Spartan Specialization : Over all your Spartan is a well rounded soldiers, but they do have two 'specializations'. These are extra training like 'Demolitions Expert' or 'Technical Genius' that your spartan in known for. (Usually their armor reflects their Specializations.)

For Appearances, you can use the Vanity program that was previously posted by ShadowFox, Or if you want you can look through some of the armor variants for the S4s and contact me and I can fix you up a photo.

For Equipment, Hit the Wiki and have at her, UNSC or Covenant. No Forerunner tech though.

For Ranks, keep it between high Corporals, Sergeants and Warrant Officers. No officer ranks, no ones that cool yet.

I'll have a character example up later tonight after I get my classes done.

History: Kat enlisted in the USNC at age 17 in 2544. Kat signed up immediately for demolitions and engineering training, and found her training being put to use sooner than later. She first saw action at the Battle of Sargasso in the year 2446, assisting in taking out bridges while Covenant forces were moving over them. Kat was promoted after the battle to corporal and signed up for the Navy Special Weapons division. She went through several more months of harsh training and was redeployed across the galaxy, spending the next two years in some of the heavier combat situations. In 2549, Kat signed up for the ODST, spending several months in training before being immediately deployed to Paris IV.

Kat saw her first action as an ODST by hot dropping into the city. Further action took her across the front of the war, where Kat was promoted to Master Sargent. When the war finally ended, Kat immediately signed on again to fight the remnants of the Covenant Loyalists, putting her hard earned talents in explosives to use. When she was informed about the Spartan-IV program, she jumped at the chance to prove herself further. After the augmentation process, Kat was stationed at Cairo station, much to her chagrin.

I am interested in a halo RP but I don't like spartans that much. I would rather use a elite if that is OK. Being the timeline is after halo 3 and maybe shortly before halo 4, UNSC should have a alliance with the elites because of the events in halo 3 with the arbiter. I was about to do a interest check my self on a covenant RP with a elite I wrote up in my free time that has a custom armor and a energy halberd. I will post info on my character idea and the planet he lived on when I get back from work. And I do know that the pic I am using for him is a arbiter design for halo wars but I was going to say his planet was where the arbiters armor was made so they have similiar designs for their militarys armor.
Here is the pic I was going to use

The arbiters armor is very old while the smiths of the planet I come from makes new upgraded versions of it. Basicly my armor is a new armor with a classic look.

I wasn't really looking for an Elite, but I'd be open to bring in that character, but I'm not a big fan of the armor. I'm alright with the background and such, I'm just not to sure about the energy Helbred and how it looks like his armor could almost be something from WarHammer. It's down right cool, but not what we're looking for.

 Well, it's an artist rendering rather than a CGI. It's going to look a helluva lot fancier than if it were in game.

Name: Aileen Domovai
Age: 26
Sex: Female
Rank: Sergeant
Spartan Specializations: CQC Expert, Pistol Marksman, Evade armor module
Equipment and Tech: M6D Magnum, Combat Knife
Appearance and Armor:

History: Joined the UNSC at the age of 16, lying about her age in order to do so. After 7 years in the service, the now 23 year old Sergeant Domovai came across a seige on a bunker by multiple hostiles while on patrol. Taking out two hostiles with CQC (one of the hostiles being killed by his own knife getting turned on him, Corporal Domovai used one of the dead hostiles as a shield, drawing her sidearm and eliminated all but one of the other hostiles, who surrendered. Despite being wounded in her non-dominant shoulder by gunfire, Corporal Domovai took the hostage to the bunker, then insisted on seeking medical attention for the survivors before allowing herself to be treated by medics. Several months after the incident, shortly after recovering from her injury, Corporal Domovai accepted the offer to be entered into the Spartan 4 program.

My profile is almost done. I'll send it to Rabit once it's completed for analysis. But before then, I have a question.

QuoteIt doesn't need to be really detailed, maybe mention the character's bit of training, and a battle they were in that pushed them to apply for the S4 program (7 years of training).

In this quote, are you saying that the Spartan IV program itself is 7 years of training, or that you need 7 years of training/military experience to be in the Spartan IV program? Because I was under the impression that the Spartan IV program just used augmentations and other performance boosting... things to allow the participants to use the MJOLNIR armor. If I remember correctly, Spartan Thorne from Spartan Ops said he joined the Spartan IV program after the New Pheonix incident, which was 6 months before that point in time.

RabbitJanitor

Wow, you were paying more attention then I was. Yea, Ill say 7 years of military service, prior and after you got in on the program. That way we don't have anyone who's too green.

ShadowFox89

 Well, I plan on my character being a Spartan-II who took the chance for upgraded armor.... Either that, or a former ODST.

When you say "first spartan programs", I'm presuming you are referring to the Spartan II program, correct? Because in actuality, they weren't the first spartans (although they were the first spartans to widely use the MJOLNIR armor, I believe). There was also the Orion Project, which produced the Spartan I's. The Orion Project used volunteer soldiers from the Marine Corps and implanted them with (primitive) physical enhancing... things. Sergeant Johnson was a Spartan-I, I believe.

Ya, thats what he meant. Orion was the Spartan I program but your right the Spartan II program was the first to be able to use the MJOLNIR armor. The spartan III program consisted of orphans who were brought to Onyx and used SPI armor instead of MJOLNIR. They were cheaper to produce and sent on suicide missions that were to dangerous for Spartan IIs and ODSTs. After that we have the Spartan IVs and we know all about them.

Don't worry, I wasn't accusing you of snapping or anything. It's just I feel a little bad for coming in here claiming I don't know much about the Halo Universe and then start pointing out (slight) inconsistencies (if you can even call them that) in the plot.

Its all good. I kind of went overboard with my answer but I could not pass up a chance to mention my favorite spartans which are the IIIs.
Evolution is an arms race

RabbitJanitor

Lets keep to the Spartan 4s please. Actually, the Spartan 2s would be able to fit into the S4 armor easily. (Maybe some fitting and implant issues) The S4s are far less beefy then the S2s. The S4s were made (Like the S3s as Frelance said) to be a cheaper alternative to expensively efficient S2s. The whole point was to bring the enhanced battle armor closer to the soldier level. And it was successful.

Also, i consider the Orion project more of a prototype phase in the program. They didn't produce Spartan 1s, they tested out the armor that didn't work for a regular human. The Spartan 1s were the Roman Spartans, way back when. "THIS IS SPARTA!" and all that jazz.

....*ehm* i might of gone over board with mine too....

So, when referring to the soldiers involved in the Orion Project, should we still call them Spartan 1.0s?

Holy crap, that makes two female spartans already. I guess the only female in this RP (so far) may actually be a male! :/

@Clarissa: Yep you can still call them Spartan 1s if you want.


@Shadow: the difference between an ODST going into the Spartan IV program and a Spartan II going into the same program is that for an ODST it is an upgrade, they get stronger and faster but for a Spartan II it would be more of a downgrade.

Because the Spartan IVs are cheaper it means that they are not as powerful as the IIs.

Evolution is an arms race

RabbitJanitor

Actually there were no successful Spartans made from the Orion project. The armor was deemed unsafe for an unaugmented human body. As well, you wont be seeing any S2s or S3s at all, Most of them have been retired or killed at this time point. Also, you should definitely play a women. Adds some variety to the usual nerdy sausage fest.

ShadowFox89

 Eh, alright. I can go with a former ODST then.

Still plan on an engineer/demolitions and hacking expert. Expect lots of drooling over alien vehicles and comments about "oh, a charge placed juuust right can bring this whole place down..."

A downgrade? I thought the armor all the spartans wear were of equal power (at least when it comes to how powerful they could be at the time), and it was just the augmentations/training that was different.

Well technically speaking, the Orion Project didn't necessarily fail in creating spartans, it just didn't make the spartans like the Spartan IIs, IIIs, and IVs. The spartans didn't wear fancy armor and all that jazz, but they were fairly superior to the regular soldier and also, like you said, served as a prototype for future spartan projects. You have to remember that the Orion Project happened long before the Spartan II project (a couple hundered years I think, as the Spartan I project started in the 23rd century), so the results weren't going to be as successful as they were for the future generations (this might not be a strong argument though, as the Orion project ran until the early 26th century).

That's just how I perceive it though.

But the game will hardly be a sausage fest, since there are already two females in the group. It would be kind of weird to see a spartan team made up of more females than males, considering that there are a lot more males in the military than females (That's the impression I get from the games I've played though. If there is any source that proves me otherwise, feel free to show me).

They are all equal, if the wiki is to believe, except that the Gen-2 series is more modular.

Name: Lucas 'Flare' Zephyr
Age: 31

Rank: Lance Corporal
Spartan Specializations: Zero G Excursion, Vehicle Specialist
Equipment and Tech: ZG-5 thruster pack. BR85HB SR (Battle Rifle). M6H Handgun. Solar Armor fortification.
Appearance and Armor:
Spoiler: Click to Show/Hide
History: Lucas joined the UNSC at 18 and showed very little interest in combat training. He trained in vehicle control and piloting, and soon after was posted on an orbital station above New York. It was there that he trained in Zero G Excursion and combat, and it sparked his interest for combat training more then ground combat could. After his second year on a station he was attached to a ship that dealt with mostly ship boarding and vacuum oriented defense walks. After the attack on Earth there were several salvage teams that needed combat ready guard to clear Covenant wreckage. His 'Call to fame' came when he and his team were sent on a heavy excursion to retrieve a malfunctioning AI from a dead frigate that was shot down and being boarded. Most of his team was quickly whipped out and had to retreat off the ship. With him in charge at that point Lucas crashed a pelican into the bridge, retrieved the AI and the led the last three members of his team out with fire extinguishers and the last thruster pack. Him and the last three members are now part of the S4 program. He later participated in a failed prototype visor used for extreme heat and UV radiation blocking, meant to be donned in close proximity to the sun. The failure resulted in a permanent sun burn across his face in the shape of his visor, earning the name 'Flare.'

I dunno, I just usually prefer more men around than women. Makes he women more... Special, I guess. That and there's less competition for my character...

I rarely play males, but I just might go that route. I'll wait and see when the other profiles come up.

And I'm guessing Rabbit's character is going to be the leader of the team (considering that we are all in the same team)?

So yes to allowing a elite but no on the armor and weapon. :-\

OK no problem. I can change that easily. Here is my character.

Name:  Amte'Aehol "Dino"
Age: 37
Sex: Male
Rank: Corporal Specialist
Spartan Specializations: Sniping and E.V.A./Paratrooper training
Equipment and Tech: Antigravity pack(Covenant Jetpack), Sniper Rifle System 99-S5 Anti-Matériel , M6H Magnum (Both customized for his hand size) 
Appearance and Armor:
Spoiler: Click to Show/Hide
History: Entering training at a early age, Amte proved himself to be a capable warrior. Unlike most sangheili, he showed to be a better marksman than even the kig-yar. After he was brought in to the covenant military he rose through the ranks to be accepted into the Rangers. This is where he was assigned to ground forces as a highly mobile sniper that can fire from the most unsuspecting locations. After the brutes moved up the ranks Amte only managed to stay high rank due to no one could outsnipe him, but this lead him into darkness during the invasion of earth. While in a sniper nest overlooking a large highway, him and a team of brutes cut off supply lines to the city. But that is when the order came in for brutes to kill the elites. Now with the team that was meant to guard his back trying to kill him, he had no other choice but to flee to a valley where he set up camp and awaited orders from something other than a brute or prophet. After a few days, a team of ODSTs stumbled into his campsite. Amte didn't react to their arrival as hostile action but snarled at them to leave him alone. One spoke up to being a ONI officer and told Amte about the alliance of the humans and the sangheili. Knowing that he was betrayed by the prophets Amte requested to join the humans while they fought the brutes. This allowed him to be inducted into ONI as a specialist. During his time in ONI, he showed more fond of having a female superviser than a male due to most men of the human race would rather kill him.

 About how long after the Fall of Reach would the game take place?
Call me Shadow
My A/A

RabbitJanitor

The better question would be how long after would the game be from Halo 3. I think i can handle this though.

The fall of reach was the Pillar of autumn's send off, starting Halo 1.

I think there was about 1-2 months between halo one and two where Chief and his surviving members paraded around with Halsey on a stolen Covenant cruiser. Number two and Three happen within a week or two.

Then MC spends four years as a Chief-cicle. (A Master Chief-cicle)

And Four happens within a few days and where we're plotted on the time line is about the same time Infinity is back at Requiem.

So.... about.. Four and a half to Five years after Reach.

ShadowFox89

 Alright, that works.

My background has Kat serving as an ODST on Reach and being part of the evacuation team, just barely getting off of the planet. Well, really, he entire background is one miraculous survival after another :P

It most Certainly did.

The Pillar of Autumn was leaving reach just as the alien bastards were glassing it. Halo Reach deals with Noble team and their struggle to maintain control of the ground battle and later, transport Cortana to the Autumn before it lifts off. (Witch brings up a few inconsistencies in the Book's story VS the games.)

The Autumns random slip space jump (As per the Cole Protocol) drops them right on Instillation 04's door step. (The first discovered Halo.)

Carlissa

And Halo Reach featured Spartan IIIs as playable characters?... Just how old is Master Chief anyway?

And what the heck is a Pillar of Autumn anyway?

Sigh* Carlissa, you give my inner nerd a boner.

I believe that one of the Spartans was referenced as a Spartan 3, however the lore in my mind started blocking that part out along my second play through.

I believe the Chief would be about 45-50 at this point. He was selected at Seven and was almost done most of the training before the Human Covenant war started. Spartans were originally made to take on Colonial Insurgencies. The war lasted 30 years, and Chief was on Ice when it ended.

The Pillar of Autumn is the horse that the Spartans were suppose to ride in on. Its an older, but beefy ship. It was crash landed on 04 in the first game.

Name: James Terence
Age:  38
Sex: Male
Rank:  Captain

History:  James was recruited from his first position aboard a corvette after graduation at the top of his class in slip space and normal space navigation. Less than a year later the ship was heavily damaged in a minor engagement with the Covenant. After seeing that the corvette's repairs would take several months James took a position of the Prowler Dawns Shadow where he served until its destruction. The crew were able to evacuate the ship and regroup on the systems habitable planet.

They survived for a month avoiding covenant search parties from the planets outpost until a squad of ODSTs were sent in to take out the outpost and search for any surviving crew of the Dawns Shadow. At the end of the week long operation that ended with the disabling of the outposts communication systems. The group of survivors and ODST were picked up by a Pelcan dispatched from a Prowler waiting in orbit. There were only eight of the sixteen crew members who made it off the planet.

He was made the Captain of the Prowler Aurora's flame after taking command and holding the crew together. He did not fail to achieve a single objective since taking command although his ship has needed major repairs many times and he and the crew were almost lost in one of the final battles of the Covenant war. After the war he made many runs into covenant territory to either plant or retrieve ONI spies. After the discovering the Ark fragment Captain Terence was given command of both Aurora's flame and Guinie's smoke another Oni prowler to set up a research base on it.

Quick question: do Spartans have need of field medics?
"Damn kids doing work. Back in my day we worked 18 hours a day and still had time for 12 hours of fun before a solid 8 hours of sleep in 24 hours".

ShadowFox89

 I believe their armor can apply quick-fixes, but someone with medical training and gear would be helpful.

We also need a heavy weapons person. Though, that would be a unique combo. Heavy weapons specialist + field medic.

I actually had two characters in mind that specialized in those two... Specialties each. That's why I asked if two characters were okay. Not sure which one is more needed though.
"Damn kids doing work. Back in my day we worked 18 hours a day and still had time for 12 hours of fun before a solid 8 hours of sleep in 24 hours".

 Go with one that has a bit of training in both. Or, if you prefer, a heavy weapons specialist trained in field trauma care.

So when it comes to weapons for the Heavy Weapons Guy, what exactly should I give him? I was thinking a SAW or something, but I don't want him to be too OP considering everyone else is starting out with weaker weapons....

The armor works as a field medic and I believe that all the Spartans would have some medical training. There really is only so much you can do for a wounded spartan when they are still in their armor. To do anything past fill them with bio foam or give them some drugs you need to get their armor off.

So I would agree with shadow that you should go with a heavy weapons specialist. Adding in the trauma training would probably be a good idea just in case someone looses a hand.

My profile! I totally hit a dead end with the history, so if it's not good enough I'll edit it later once I get some better ideas. As for his appearance, I have an armor set ready but I'm going to need Rabbit's help for it :P

Name: Billy “Dragon” Piles
Age: 28
Sex: Male
Rank: Sergeant
Spartan Specializations: Heavy Weapons (anti-infantry, anti-tank if necessary), some degree of medical knowledge and field experience
Equipment and Tech: M739 Light Machine Gun (SAW), M7/Caseless Submachine Gun (SMG)
Appearance and Armor:
Spoiler: Click to Show/Hide


History: Like his father and older siblings before him, Billy joined the UNSC to join the fight against the Covenant. While he originally enlisted in the medical wing of the UNSC with his older sister, he caught the attention of the higher ups by his excellence in basic soldier training as well as being the younger sibling to currently enlisted Spartans, one of which was the leader of a Fireteam. The large but quiet man was timid when it came to fighting, but his potential for being a soldier (and potentially a Spartan) motivated his superiors to try and convince Billy to join the Marines. While skeptical at first, Billy was convinced to change his specialization and eventually joined the Marines as a foot soldier.

Billy’s career as a marine was an eventful one, as he saw a lot of action in the front lines. He proved his worth in large scale battles thanks to his natural soldier instinct and (limited) medical knowledge. Being a big guy to begin with, Billy specialized in wielding heavy and hard to handle weapons and was a fearsome opponent in physical combat (Although completely outclassed by the much larger Elites and Brutes). After 7 years of regular service he volunteered for the Spartan IV program, joining his older brothers and many other soldiers as the backbone of the UNSC.

She could have the knowledge spartans dont have of filling the medical gel (or other medicines the armor has) that armor used up and she could know how to connect to the armors computer to get a full reading on the spartan inside.

There will be no pregnancy in this RP if I have anything to say about it!
Elites and humans cant have children together due to genetic differences just like humans and animals cant have kids. Like I said earlier.

Dont worry. A elite cant impregnate a human but it still can have sex with one.
A PENIS CAN STILL FIT IN A VAGINA NO MATTER WHAT RACE EITHER IS!!!

Sorry for being blunt about it but to me it seems like common sense.

Billy joined the military to fight for his homeworld. He has no interest in romantic relationships on the battlefield.

Sure, just ruin all the fun.... Kidding. But I do enjoy character interactions (non-sexual even!). As long as Billy won't mind a bit of flirting and teasing, he and Kat should get along find.

I would be all for romance if I was playing a female character. It's just that you perverted nerds decided to play female characters and took my perfered gender away from me! XD

Flirting is fine.

I just don't like playing boring things. It's gotta be an interesting concept or I lose the desire to play the character.

What kind of characters do you find boring?

ShadowFox89

 The standard archetypal characters, mostly. I tend to play my characters with a twist, and run my games the same way.

If I ever drag myself away from Dragon Age long enough to post up a character sheet for my Avatar game, you'll hopefully see soon enough.

 Origins. Ultimate edition was on sale for less than $8 on Steam, which is the only way I can afford any games.

I bought the Ultimate Edition on the 360. I know it's the inferior version, but that's the only way I could play it.

I wish Dragon Age 2 could go on sale for like, a dollar...

I have a 360 but didnt even try dragon age when I have skyrim. I play that so much my first character is a legic level 78. I am just using the Dragonborn DLC to reset my perks so I can train my low talents faster. AND man it takes a long time to do that.

I've also got the 360 dragon age, however I haven't beaten it yet. The mage tower was the forth or fifth thing I went to and its bending me over a table.

Skyrim is fun. I'm slowly progressing through it, but like Fallout, you never actually complete everything. Ive got two characters both at 30 something. The one's a Mace slinging bad ass, and the other is a sneaky mage. Although I used an exploit to get his sneak to 100.

Whose in your party?

I've never played Skyrim. I have Morrowind though, which I do enjoy. I've never played the story though.

I had the Templar prince, the healer and shifter, and I was a mage. However I got the spell warrior super class so i was a half ass tank too.

Carlissa

Replace the shifter (Moriggan) with the bard (Leliana). How much emphasis do you have on your arcane warrior skills?

I'm not sure, last time I played was four months ago.

Hey got a question. Do the spartans get their standard combat knife (My energy wrist daggers) like halo reach?

Kirk Vs The Gorn is a classic. It's a good laugh too.

Combat Knives are pretty standard military gear in general. One of those "Don't leave home with out it" items. I'd be willing to say that everyone has at least one strapped to their armor somewhere. As a another note, you're gear isn't internally kept. That seems pretty obvious, but that's easier to see the effect that has with ShadowFox's character and her external hole making bandoleer. Things don't look as stream lined as the games make them out to be. Ammo is another thing, usually you'd have some holders on your hips or thighs, other gear like data pads and non combat materials would be carried in a satchel or backpack.

Carlissa

So we can't pull ammo out of our asses or have magnetic armor that automatically picks up ammo for you (and stores it in your ass)? Aww...

I think he was talking about my elite. Spartans have special ammo storage areas in their hips.

Halo- The search for Spark

There's the link. It wasn't until half way through making the post did I realize the resemblance the title had to Star Trek's third movie The Search For Spock.

Please post only once until everyone has posted Once, then we can begin mixing and matching. I'd ask that unless you're in specific back and forth chatter with someone that you keep at least two post of someone else's between yours.

 Speaking of Star Trek....

I just got a phaser MINIGUN on Star Trek Online.

Minigun. Phaser.

A minigun phaser? What is the point of that? Arnt phasers one hit kills anyway? Why the extra firepower?

 They aren't in Star Trek Online. A mini-gun phaser is like a gatling laser gun from Star Wars, shoots out a fuckton of energy bolts.

Wasn't Star Trek about exploration and blowing shit up with your ship?

ShadowFox89

 Oh, it still is. But there are ground missions you do too ('away' missions).

But the best part is the space battles. Oh god the space battles. You can fight everyone from the Borg to Species 8472, to the Gorn and TOS versions of the Klingons.

RabbitJanitor

My laptop is pretty shitty and it ran the game pretty well on low. Its not a very computer intensive game, Its sorta got a cartoon-ish look to it. I go to Level 50 i think. I really hated the away missions, but the space combat is fun. Last time i was on though, they needed to do some balancing between the Tactical, Engineering and Science ships.

ShadowFox89

 It uses the same engine as Champions Online, which is why it's got a bit of a cartoonish look.

Sorry that I haven't posted everyone. I've been working on my portfolio for college all week, so I haven't been able to sit down and write a post lately. I'll try to get one up once my portfolio is handed in.
"Damn kids doing work. Back in my day we worked 18 hours a day and still had time for 12 hours of fun before a solid 8 hours of sleep in 24 hours".

Carlissa

Well, I posted. My brain is still burnt out from working on my portfolio, and I really didn't see that much I could post about anyway, so my post is kinda unimpressive.

The "Billy's love for pelicans" part was actually a lot longer than what I posted, but I thought that writing something irrelevant to the task at hand would be pointless and filler-ish, so I cut it short. My post still feels more about pelicans though.

Hopefully when my brain recovers I can write something a little bit better. But for what it's worth, enjoy.
