This might be a simulator. I don't know. Looks superficially probable.

It's like flying in jello with Zeus holding onto your ship and making you "CORKSCREW" up and down. So I suspend disbelief and trudge on thinking that it was that campy and silly episode where the crew all met the GODS of GREECE.
OMG! how stupid was that episode?!?! I was like, "WhyTF!!!!!!!!!!! are the greek gods carrying on like that?" Evidently the writers never took basic world history.
I dumped this game but still hold out hope that a real game company can develop a real STO MMO.
The space physics problem proves that Cryptic just stripped COL and added new pics of ships - it's like playing that horrible champions game but your super hero suddenly turns into a star ship HAHAHAHA
I don't think anyone stated at any point that this was supposed to be a "space simulator"?
I guess it does have *some* form of physics in it, but in the end it's just a, errr, game. You want space simulator? Go do Moonbase alpha. Or Eve, or potentially SWG space.

No but it is a pretty good simulation of Champions online in space.
but yeah, to call this game Fantastic is like calling Twilight the Godfather of vampire movies....
I agree, I don't think anyone would really want a game that simulated actual physics in space. I recall reading some Larry Niven books about realisitc space combat it basically was all about cutting across your opponents bow, rotating your hull and firing salvos while your ship continued on a steady head. To turn around and go back could take days to slow down and speed up again. Nevermind the G-forces involved that in some stories had people in special tanks so they could survive a 20 G burn.
No, I'll take my space games with a bit of an unrealistic, but fun universe to fly in.
