its called star trek borg i think on youtube about the real q as a narrator and is in it . he helps a starfleet ensign fight borg by joining a crew . every time he dies . q lets him try a different tactic
I rather liked it. I like TNG-style battles, where it's a bit more controlled. It was also good that because combat was expensive to film, it was interesting or special when it happened, as opposed to acting as filler in episodes where the writers couldn't think of anything else to do to fill the time.
@JohnnyC133 well, not *all* of DS9 from season 4 onwards, thought that is about the time that it got cheaper to do. While it happened more often than I would have chosen myself, DS9 still had some good, consistent character development too. I actually found Voyager's last couple of seasons to be a slightly worse culprit for pointless combat.
@JohnnyC133 Generally true, but I can't help thinking of "the killing game" where the crew of Voyager (okay, and the Hirogen) recreated World War II... and it was kinda in space lol.
@JohnnyC133 I didn't say that the Dominion War/WWII was not a reasonably apt comparison, just that an actual WWII episode of Voyager is the first thing that comes to mind if someone puts the terms "World War II" and "space" together on a Star Trek Thread.
PS - you could also compare the Romulan entry to the opening of the Eastern Front.
How about making this battle where the Enterprise D actually fights back? In "Peace" mode as in normal timeline, she's carrying 13 Phasers and torpedo launcher capable of launching multiple torpedo in a single volley. We get a couple phaser shots and that's it. This is a War Build Enterprise, it should be even more beefed up, C.Mon paramount this is almost as bad as Generations when the D is sacrificed for a high res Enterprise E. ;)
@CJCA915 I love the episode and the setup of the battle...but the flagship should have been able to get off a lot more torpedo volleys and phaser strikes.
Thats what always annoyed me about the many battle scenes in tng they ent d is a powerful ship but its incredibly slow at firing back and when it does it always opens with a lousy shot from its primary phaser banks!
@2490debrick True, but to be fair it DID demonstrate considerable power in other scenes. Also, I seem to remember Gene saying something about wanting it to be less militaristic and more diplomatic than earlier starfleet designs, before the Next Generation was put into production.
@Idazmi7 Gene created too many unrealistic enemies i.e. Q, Borg and other silly things such as i.e. Time Travel and the Mirror Universe! Otherwise I guess so the only other times it has shown any form of Power was up against the Dominion and Cardassians!
@2490debrick Star Trek is supposed to be taken seriously... sometimes. The rest of the time it is fun fiction. Also, attacking Gene Roddenberry in any Trek discussion would be counterproductive: He invented Star Trek himself.
A book: The Making Of Star Trek, details how much he went through to create the more scientific parts of the show, and how CBS just LOVED to use 'creative license' on those parts on whim. Gene did too, but he always took those parts out of the "physical" universe.
@2490debrick Also, Gene was most directly involved with the Star Trek movies, post The Motion Picture. Starfleet seemed more serious then, and the technicolor turtlenecks were replaced by red-and-black uniforms.
@Idazmi7 I liked those uniforms very formal me likey likey! I wish they sold proper Star Fleet uniforms to us fans instead of shit ones that aren't cannon!!!
I respect Roddenberry, but I don't understand the mainstream unfavorable viewpoints towards the networks who brought his ideas to life. I'm not picking on you, but I just don't get it. Having an original idea like Roddenberry had doesn't go far without the production entities that don't get much thanks for taking the chance on it. Roddenberry was paid, but didn't take the same risks as the networks. The networks benefitted in the end, but when a guy sells an idea, he sold the idea.
@TheJediCharles Under Roddenberry, eight of Star Trek's episodes were nominated for one of science-fiction’s top awards, the Hugo Award, in the category "Best Dramatic Presentation". In 1967, the nominated episodes were "The Naked Time", "The Corbomite Maneuver", and "The Menagerie". In 1968, all nominees were Star Trek episodes. The Animated Series was the first Star Trek series to win an Emmy Award. Under the more "network friendly" Star Trek NextGen, there were no Emmy-worthy episodes.
And I don't value popular consensus any more that pop awards. Please, just speak for your own preferences and don't feel the need to prop up your opinions with outside validation. I'm more impressed with you speaking for yourself without it.
One is better than the other? The Trek captains are persistently kidnapped by powerful aliens. I don't see your pattern.
Look, if you have your preferences, that's fine. We all do. If your preferences center around that which Roddenberry was more directly involved with (and espouse it's objective and not halo-effect), you're free to. None of that is my issue.
Without networks, there would be no Trek programs. They'd still be a mere great idea in a creative guy's head. Not all of Roddenberry's ideas were great and some of the network over-rides were good moves.
@TheJediCharles Personally, I think Gene's whole idea of the future was great... and the network wanted to change things to make it more exciting for the viewers... Roddenberry took issue to this on a few occasions... in fact, I've talked to Andrew Probert the designer of the Enterprise Refit, and Enterprise D, and he's even said the studio, etc. don't listen to what the creator of something does... which is why some of the stuff on the Enterprise D does what it shouldn't...
Well, Gene had a lot of lofty idealistic images of humanity in the future, and while it sounds like a wonderful place to live in, it doesn't make good television. If everyone cooperates, has no character flaws, there is no war, strife, etc., and there's a technology to fix everything, there isn't much of a foundation to build drama.
Again, the way I see it, metaphorically, Gene was the brain, but the network was the body. Without the network, his ideas would be only that... ideas.
@TheJediCharles "Well, Gene had a lot of lofty idealistic images of humanity in the future, and while it sounds like a wonderful place to live in, it doesn't make good television.

Star Trek 2 and Star Trek 6 are the reasons that this comment falls flat on it's face.
@TheJediCharles Well, Probert is the designer, so I think he has better credence in how his ships should work, than the network...
Like I said, I prefer Roddenberry's views... not what what the network tried to spin it into... same with JJ's recent Trek film... it barely has anything of Roddenberry's vision in it...
1. the comment I made concerning Probert was made when I mistook you for Idazmil7. I wouldn't have said it had I realized it was from someone else.
2. If I'm pressed to answer it, I don't care about Probert's views for the same reason a stuntman doesn't get to decide the plot, Probert's a model designer. Gene himself said the story takes front seat to the technology.
I don't subscribe to the sainting of Gene or the demonizing of the networks. I see it as trite and limited.
@TheJediCharles Well, I do believe in Gene's vision... and not what the network wanted to turn it into... some fanciful action series... Star Trek is and always will be about the betterment of mankind, through medical achievements, technological achievements, etc. I don't want Star Trek to be another Star Wars... I want Star Trek to remain, scientific, and about the betterment of mankind.
It's funny, I've said the same thing before, but inversely, that I didn't want Star Wars to become another Star Trek (by way of non-stop sequel films that don't deal in the Skywalkers), and I say that in sincerity as I deeply enjoy both universes, including Star Wars' being finite.
Anyway, I already understand the "Gene vision" thing. But after a point, it's a dead-end in terms of a ongoing drama. It's utterly binding and restrictive. That's not a statement of preference. It's true.
Anyway, this issue is pretty simple; was the network more a force to make Gene's Trek possible or a force to inhibit it. I'm not arguing your statements (and Idazmi7's) are categorically untrue. It's more a matter of emphasis, gratitude, and being realistic about the difficulties.
Gene's dream future may not deal with the limits of money, technology, time and human frailties, but our universe obviously does, and I think the networks have more reason to be thanked than scorned.
I always wish NG would have spent some money on other Klingon ships and not used and reused the Bird of Prey to death, For god sake a bird could last about 5 seconds against a Galaxy class, One show that needs new effects is NG!
@Megatron65 The bird of prey is the B'rel class vessel you see in Star Trek VI, and mostly in the DS9 dominion war. The ships in this video look like a bird of prey, but they are in fact much larger and are actually K'vort class... their "wings" also stay much higher up and don't move down like a B'rel at battlestations, they aren't technically a bird of prey, but yes, they did use the "model" too much and should of invested in designing more ships.
@rossco010 Various designations have been used throughout the years, creating the impression that "Bird-of-Prey" is merely a generic term for the ship's appearance, whereas the actual types or classes are called B'rel, K'Vort or D-12.
Not a bad try...the details are there, except that all three of the Birds-of-Prey were attacking the Enterprise-D where in this simulation you have only one or two firing. You also might want to include a simulated outside-of-ship battle sequence in parts where the cameras were only showing the Main Bridge.
He means that 47 is a kind of "magical" number which appears all over Star Trek, for an explanation you can search "star trek 47" on google then klick on the Memory-Alpha link. (Why can't I post links in Youtube comments?)
@racefan32 Ummm, the audio is from the TNG episode of the same name, also, The B'rel-class Bird of Prey is a scout vessel, used for espionage, skirmishes and raids, while the K'Vort-class Bird of Prey is a light cruiser, the Birds of Prey in this episode were cruisers.
No need to scrap it. You make very good videos. I'm certain you could improve upon what Paramount did 21 years ago. Perhaps you could be recruited to spearhead the inevitable Star Trek, The Next Generation remastered series.
I realize you are scrapping it, but I am having some of the same criticism of this as your other videos, that things jump around too much between cuts. The Klingon birds of prey attack from above, then it jumps as the Enterprise is firing torpedoes steeply below, then the Klingons are above again, then the Enterprise fires 'up' toward them. The relative positionings jump inconsistently. Overall I like your videos because so few folk are doing any except using clunky game engines.
This is so good. Well done!
(I hope the Blu-Ray edition of the future will be even more awesome.)

I realize you are scrapping it, but I am having some of the same criticism of this as your other videos, that things jump around too much between cuts. The Klingon birds of prey attack from above, then it jumps as the Enterprise is firing torpedoes steeply below, then the Klingons are above again, then the Enterprise fires 'up' toward them. The relative positionings jump inconsistently. Overall I like your videos because so few folk are doing any except using clunky game engines.

@ChibiabosWolf Well, the shots were made to resemble the shots from the TNG episode.

Looks great so far. Play with the illumination a little bit (like you did in the Nemesis clip) and it will look perfect!

Needs better flashes and maybe shield effects, but that's really it. Nicely done, especially the movement - so smooth!

@deltanalliance Flashes?
There are some shield effects, trying to get them as close as I can to the TNG original, but yea.
Thanks.
