Nah, both of those are drawings. But, by judging how the Battlestar Galactica Online beta looks(uses Unity engine) Star Trek: IS could come out pretty good.

Yeah, saw those, they look nice, but then almost all concept art looks good.

This concept art is particularly good in how it sticks to canon, instead of glowy parts on everything. It doesn't have weird giant size everything as a cheat around getting the camera to work, either. Also, I read the trailer is supposed to express the game creaters' intentions for how the final product should look; if that's true, it can be taken as part of the concept art.

Exactly! When I first saw the concept art I thought, "that's really cool, it looks like star trek. You could actually see those being in the show." And the people seem to be wearing star trek uniforms instead of the battle suit things from Elite Force.

The game will take place during the Dominion War, which is why they're wearing normal uniforms. It's also the perfect period for a Star Trek combat game. We know so little about the wider war, it leaves huge swaths to be filled in.

Memory Alpha is for canon works only, Memory Beta is for licensed but non-canon works, and since Excalibur is neither I'm not sure it belongs in either.

Last I checked, Memory Alpha also does real world articles. Plus Infinite Space isn't canon.

neither armada ,legacy or BC and they still have articles there

There only there because there Official games, given the mark of approval by Paramount or who ever owned the rights to Star Trek at the time of the game.

It's a wiki, and I don't know how aggressive they are at enforcing their policies. By all rights they should be in Memory Beta, with a small link to that article in the Memory Alpha page.

There's also Memory Gamma, the home of all facfic nerds and weirdos.

How many Memory [insert Greek word] Wikias is there?

MajorD · « **Reply #51 on:** November 13, 2010, 10:55:50 AM »

Four, but Memory Delta is unused and pointless.

I actually went and played that interstellar marines game and as it was it looked pertty good. but then i noticed in the upper left hand corner (hit tab for settings) so i hit tab went to settings and what do you know. IT WASENT EVEN MAXED. So i put the settings on the highest they would go. DAYYUM it looks as good as an Xbox360 game! it even has better physics than most games on the 360 to!

Im really anticipating this game now that i know what can be done with it.

After seeing the Battlestar Galactica Online beta I'm pretty skeptical now. BSG online isn't that amazing and it's subscription based. Star Trek Infinite Space is free to play so that's a sign right there. But you never know, maybe the creators will really be inspired and be fans of ST. Of course, that's what Cryptic said....

MajorD · « **Reply #57 on:** November 19, 2010, 10:29:01 PM »

World of Tanks will be free play and it's lots of fun, so free play doesn't worry me in light of it being a 3D game, and not a true browser game.

Indeed, here's the actual game graphics http://startrek-is.com/game-facts/

It's nowhere near the level of Excalibur as it is now, or even as it was a year ago

. The CGI intro was amazing, and the best part? That's the level of graphics Excalibur is heading towards, at least.

So yeah, no cat fight here. Completely different realms.

There's even some gameplay footage out there.
