Star Trek Legacy

posted on December 12th, 2006, 6:26 am

you want an honest oppinion ?

dont even consider buying it until they actually fix the game or finish developing it which they clearly didnt

for now just obtain the game and when its worth getting then buy it

and this comes from someone who owns 22 startrek games trust me this is really bad

think Starfleet Academy without any of the extra's just an arcade shooter with pretty graphics

Well, when a game's 1.1 patch comes out on launch day, its generally a bad sign. I haven't had a chance to play the game yet myself, but it's probably another case of Paramount rushing something out (or in this case telling someone else to rush out) and stamping the trek name on it just to make some shekles.

Not to say it sounds bad, the reviews I've read say its a passable game, but not worthy of the hype or the follow up to great games like Invasion, Elite Force, and Armada II. :S

Armada 2 LOL

Listen one to 8 of 11 it isnt Bethesda its mad doc who made the crummy game Bethesda wernt even developing it only publishing so u can throw that out the window

And yeah 1.1 came out on launch day and hasnt done anything to help

Top it off Its not paramount btw its CBS now LOL

oh and u want examples of terrible gameplay how about the fact that it feels like ur ships die as fast as A2 ships sometimes lol

Missions are nothing but arcade shooting theres one mission where u have to kill 4 romulans then the next is 8 or so then its 12 or so then its 30 lol

the game has no depth

Graphically yeah its fantastic if you have a decent pc but other than that and the voice work by Shatner , Picard the game aint exactly something you want to play

trust me guys i own most ST games made and this one aint worth it at all i could go as far to say that this is as bad as Startrek New worlds its that bad

oh the funniest thing is that even though BC is much older its soo much better than this excuse for a game it doesnt even come close to BC or the SFC series

You see the frustration i have

FOR **** SAKE you cant even remap the controls what the **** is up with that

Top it off the options file never ******* saves certain details so everytime you start the game you have to enable them again

im serious they really took the **** releasing it in the state its in

If it were up to me id have Mad doc burnt to the ground for this Stupid pathetic excuse for a Half made game they have dropped on us and it just ****** me off now that they have done this 3 times to me

Startrek armada 2 Ruined
Empire earth 2 Ruined
Startrek Legacy Ruined

and watching this just ****** me off 10x more

think i'll leave it for the moment then, had a bad felling about the gameplay when i saw some of those videos released. think i'll be content with what i got for the time being.

thanks for the heads up 4

Np i just didnt want people to get tricked into getting legacy and tbh im happy i didnt buy it or get my Gf to get it for me for christmas as i had originally planned i decided to torrent it first to make sure then if it was even half decent buy it

but tbh what they have done is criminal

Makes it even worse that they dont even have any announcements on whether there will be patches the first patch they released was to fix Mp bugs but it actually adds more bugs to the game completely stupid i reckon

I honestly think this will be like A2 one patch and then run

for me legacy is just a klingon academy with less possibilities but better graphics. i tried legacy in multiplayer and despite it doesn't work 90% of online games for me i enjoyed klingon academy more in things of vessel maneuvering and strategic possibilities with tons of options to set repair or weapon priorities etc etc.
still, klingon academy had only tmp vessels and there were no really mods released

So when Bethesda Softworks swept the VGA awards on Spike tonight (12/13/06 in the US) was anyone ELSE waiting eagerly for an apology for Legacy when they accepted all the wards for Elderscrolls IV?

I have it, and it is a disappointment. Feels like a graphically improved version of SFC III.

Replay value is low on this title/game. I'm still in the TOS era, but it's been sitting there on my rack for 4 days now...and I don't really feel like diving into it anytime soon.

i heard from cts006 thatthe game is really really really bad, and that it doesn't even reach to the knees of FO, except for graphics which are quite good.

that's true, BUT legacrap is an action game NOT an RTS; unfortunately
