I'm pretty sure there is next to no information about the new series apart from some of the staff working on it (producers, writers and directors) and that it'll be on that CBS streaming service in the US.

So a few Kelvin Timeline ships have come to Star Trek online with the new expansion, since you can customise the ships to an extent let's swap their skins! The Vengeance looks so much better in white!  While the Kelvin Connie is uhh...

Just saw Beyond, loved it. Easily the best of the Kelvin Timeline films. The Franklin was awesome.

I thought that '09 was ok but nothing great (a promising start at least) and Into Darkness was garbage. Don't know if that counts.

The more you guys talk about CBS All Access the happier I get that Discovery is just going to be on Netfilx over here.

Gammatron 64 posted:It's funny you mention that though, because people in here keep talking about designs they find ugly. If you really want some ugly designs that make no sense, look no further than STO. I mean, just look at these monstrosities: Worth noting that most of these are from launch, the game was rushed out the door in about a year and a half (which is loving insane for an MMO) for contractual reasons. They've come up with a much better and more consistent theme for their new ship designs. Excelsior refit:  Constitution refit v2:  Akira refit:  Galaxy refit:  Defiant refit:  Nothing amazing, but much better than what they did at launch.

Every time Trek has put someone in a dumb catsuit to be sexy it's never worked. They always look better wearing a Starfleet uniform than one of those.

Duckbag posted:Of course, the Maquis uniforms they had were ugly as sin, but they could have at least given them a special pin or something. The Maquis crew members did actually get their own 'provisional officer' rank pips.  Ignore the captain and commander ranks, the highest rank seen on screen was Chakotay's Lt. Commander pips.

Mokotow posted:It's a good sign that STD is billed as a Netflix Original (even if it isn't, really). I think CBS will use it to promote All Access for the first season, and then just wash their hands and hand it off to Netflix to continue running it. I think Netflix brands anything they have exclusive rights to in a country as 'Netflix Original'. In the UK Netflix got Breaking Bad before it even hit TV (I'm not sure if it ever hit TV over here, actually) and it was promoted as a Netflix Original.

Cojawfee posted:Why didn't they use it? Were they not allowed to use the Runabout set from DS9? Apparently it never got used because they didn't want to 'diminish the effect' of the Captain's Yacht from Insurrection. Fun fact: the Enterprise D was supposed to have a Captain's Yacht, but it was never used. I guess a shuttle docked in the underside of the saucer was something they really wanted to do but only were able to do it in Insurrection?

MrL_JaKiri posted:Don't worry, it's gotten worse rather than better. I was so excited when Moffat took over, his first series is by far the best of the revival but it just went so much down hill after that. I stopped watching episodes as they came out this last series, just letting them pile up and when I heard that Chibnall was taking over I just quit entirely.

Delthalaz posted:That's drat expensive. I have the sinking feeling that even if the show is good, nobody has any desire to sign up for some stupid CBS streaming service and Star Trek will be doomed for ten years until the next sexy reboot. Apparently Netfilx paid so much for the international streaming rights that they pretty much paid for the show's production. If it does terribly on CBS's service but does well on Netfilx then CBS would be idiots kill it.

The expansion pack for Elite Force 1 had a 'Virtual Voyager' mode where you could freely explore quite a lot of the ship, I think almost every deck was there (although it was normally just a corridor going to a recognisable location from the show). Even had a bunch of collectables and minigames like a Captain Proton holodeck program. I spent way too much time playing that mode.

Timby posted:I wouldn't be shocked to see CBS yank the other shows from Netflix and Prime and stash them on All Access. Netflix apparently paid a massive amount of money for the Discovery rights outside of America and Canada (I think a CBS executive even said it was enough to pay for the production of the show) , I imagine CBS doesn't want to piss them off too much.

Astroman posted:They can spend millions to make a movie, but can't make a few uniforms for reasons. They did design some Wrath of Kahn-like updates to the TNG uniform, but they decided not to use it.  They did at least make one for Levar Burton and filmed one scene before deciding to just use TNG and DS9 costumes.

Timby posted:From all the videos that have been released, it feels like something you'll need motion sickness medication to play. Have you played much in VR? I wouldn't think this would give most people motion sickness. Generally it's movement that takes up your whole view that does that, sitting on a bridge and looking at some control panels and a viewscreen would probably be fine. The third-person ship camera might be a problem though, I think that's something the captain can use to get a better view of what's going on.

Arglebargle III posted:Hopefully we'll look back on this and laugh like season 1 of The Next Generation, but who knows if it will get another season. What will CBS do when all access fails? Keep making the show? Assuming Netflix keeps throwing money at them. Netflix apparently paid enough for the international rights that it covered the cost of making the show, granted they said that before one of the many delays so who knows if that's still true.

If you want a better look at the ship, here is the clip with the pan from the end of the episode. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TpPAH2kqnFs Looks like it might have a transparent viewscreen. Other than that and the holes in the nacelle pylons, I like it as an updated design.

Grand Fromage posted:So wait did they actually remove the DS9 content or what? I was thinking about downloading it just to wander around the station. No, they just launched a DS9 expansion with three missions and said that was only half of it. Then they finished the story in just one more mission and then announced the Disco expansion. All the DS9 stuff is still there, there just isn't as much as they promised.

It's one of the 'Short Treks' episodes that are like 15 minutes long or something that are only available in the US because Netflix didn't want them.

The closest thing to a bottle episode that Disco had that I can remember is the Harry Mudd time loop episode, that that was pretty effects heavy too so I doubt it was much cheaper. That was a pretty good episode though, IMO.

Lol, not surprised that's how they would be solving Discovery's continuity issues. The ship is sent almost a thousand years into the future and everyone in the present is sworn to secracy to never mention the events of the show, the characters, the Spore Drive or the Discovery itself. Guess season three is going to be set in the far future.

Also Into Darkness. Section 31 found Khan and made him build the Vengeance for them or something. Also I think they were in an episode of Enterprise? I think Reed secretly worked for them.
