Bah, Star Trek won't work well MMORPG wise. It requires too much cooperation. You usually fly even a shuttle with at least 2 people, especially when encountering combat. Image 5 people across the globe trying to coordinate flying and firing the weapons of an Excelsior class cruiser.

Eh, it'll be at least as lame as the Star Wars one was. Star Wars had a good idea... but they purposely removed all fun by removing all risk and challenge.

Star Trek could make everything work great... but then (photon) torpedo themselves by scuttling gameplay.

CoH is supposed to rock the hizzouse though.

I think the biggest problem with MMORPGs is the first M.
