erm.... do you know how long it takes someone to write a complete engine from scratch or what skills you need to do this in todays gaming industry and i don't think that the guys at madDoc have the skill to stem up something like that....................

(not no mention the licencse cost for a rented engine, hmm they should have taken the homeworld2 engine or so ^^ )

And as far i have seen, the only modable things of Legacrap are things which are described via XML, such as User Interfaces and ship stats. Right now i doubt that someone, with the current tools and "help" available from madDoc and Co., will be able to solve the most anoying problems (stupid way of movement i.e.: no loopings or rolling, one shield bubble), unless they release a real SDK with the source code and i highly doubt that, since when i look into the config files and read their comments, I honestly DO NOT want to look deeper into the source code *shivering*

Legacrap is looking less and less apealing by the second...

well if you are a Xbox 360 Gamer then jump up in Joy and praise your gods, since THIS is the Star Trek Game for ye ^^. Well I don't know what to think about Legacrap any more, i'm tired with this topic. The Forum there are strange and weird, not to mentions the moderators ^^.

Oh regarding modding; I think from their point of view that this IS much possibility to mod^^, but maybe i am wrong maybe you CAN do more; anyway unless some poor soul sacrifices his time and look into this erm pile of junk and symbol of shame i will not take any greater interest into this piece of software.

Well console and Personal Computer work very difreantly so a game can be good on one and crap on a uther.

If you look at legicy closly you will see the game is limated to the same nuber of buttons at a console contraoler (4) leting you swich between ships easly, on a computer limating the game to 4 ships realy sucks becuss PCs have more buttons/options.

PCs are made for more complicated games than consoles can handale so have a game 1st made for console will of cores not work well on a PC the same is trow of games made for PC put on to consoles.

Agreed. I'm glad your writing looks better and better. How is it possible ?

I agree with u guys. The 360 version is actually very good, I just dont know about the PC version. From the sound of it, it spunds bad.

the 360 issue has the same core issues of gameplay depth as the PC

tbh its a mild distraction and CTS has said on another thread if it wasnt for it being STarTrek we would have left this game along time ago probably on the release day

Agreed. I suppose if someone dedicated his/her time to improve the game dramaticly, it just might be enough to keep Legacrap around.

not really the core issue is the game its self it has no potential to be anything greater than a shooter

at least in A2 there were rudementary tactics

what we really want is a new BC with a bit of elite force in it, (note bc first, with a little bit of ef)

this game was most like dominon wars but I liked that game this sucked they should do a new verson of DW using its engine that would be cool
