Family Fun

by corey_russell , Sep 10 '08
Pros: Fun ship battles, easy user interface to use
Cons: Bugs, tweaking might be needed to make multi-player work.
Armada is a game where you build structures which then allow building of Star Trek ships and special weapons (the special weapons aren't necessarily from the Star Trek canon, Activision did take some liberties to make the game more fun). You mine ...

PLease, PLease let me play the game

by starrion , Sep 12 '00
Pros: Excellent proven gameplay engine, Stellar graphics (sorry) and sound.
Cons: Frequent crashes.
It was hopeless. There was no way that I was going to get past the Star Trek Aramada display without buying one. "I just need a network card- I run in and get one and No games!" Right.

SO, I get the game home and installed...

Resistance is futile.. but fun

by tag_1234 , Jun 06 '00
Pros: single player graphics/overall, nice plot, fun
Cons: bugs, multi-player graphics, a bit too complex?, similar races
Ah yes its about time someone bought rights for a decent Star Trek game. Activision did a wonderful job despite some problems, most of them bugs.

Initial impressions:

I love Star Trek and really wanted this game to work. I...

Its Starcraft....um..Trek!

by lpmiller , Mar 25 '00
Pros: A good Star Trek Game! Shocking!
Cons: Graphic crash on top line vid cards - tsk tsk!
Oh boy did I need a new game! Oh c'mon, you know the feeling...the shakes, the long slow "I'll just be 5 minutes hon!" trips to the game store that take 3 hours. The need gets filled, finally, but usually, with garbage. Especially if you make...

Missing William Shatner Killed his Wife! Shame on you, James T. Kirk!

by skyth Epinions Most Popular Authors - Top 200, Apr 24 '00
Pros: Best of the best in strategy games combined into this 2d Space sim
Cons: Offers nothing new, and needs a bug killer like raid.
Humanity’s quest to explore and exploit new worlds and new civilizations, and Kirk’s personal quest to have sex with all imaginable alien females (some with green skin color), has long dissipated from the Star Trek scene. In today’s ...

Make it so!

by murgan , Aug 15 '02
Pros: A great game - good plot, lots of fun and maddeningly addictive
Cons: Use of sound could have been better
As a rule, I tend to assume that a film or TV/computer game tie-ins generally result in mediocre games, as the development team invariably has to spend a large chunk of their budget purchasing the license in order to make the game in the first place....

ST: Armada- Well, it's no StarCraft...

by x2kbran , Oct 23 '00
Pros: music, good idea in theory
Cons: annoying minor flaws, little map variety
Note: This is aimed at those who have played StarCraft, or maybe even WarCraft, before, though you should understand what I'm talking about even if you haven't.

When I picked up Armada, I was looking for a game that would rival what I...

by roman1967 , Jul 26 '00
Pros: STAR TREK! Great Graphics and Gameplay.
Cons: Some minor crashing.
...But, with the arrival of a ship from the future using temporal technology, you can change a timeline or two.

I downloaded the demo for Armada from the official Star Trek site at http://www.startrek.com and after playing it,...

Accurate and Innovative, but Buggy

by harleyds , May 12 '00
Pros: Good Story Line and Accurate Facts
Cons: Heavy Hardware Requirements and Little Bugs
With an accurate story/time line and battling rouge enemies such as Ferengies, Breen, Dominions, and Cardassians, Star Trek Armada would be tough to beat if it were not for all the programming bugs and heavy system requirements. If you like strategy...

Startrek Armada: Cry Havok and Let Slip the Dogs of War!

by firebird1 , May 11 '00
Pros: Star Trek! Borg, Romulan, Federation, Klingon you choose.
Cons: Bugs need to be fixed by Activision.
This game was purchased for me by a friend as a birthday present. Since then we both have enjoyed playing it. The game itself is excellent being the first 3D strategy game featuring the Startrek Universe.
This game features the Federation,...

Resistance is futile!

by 1GQ Epinions Most Popular Authors - Top 1000, Jun 09 '00
Pros: compelling campaign, multi-player mode, lots of mods
Cons: buggy on some PCs, stupid AI
Just after the end of the Dominion Wars, the Borg return. This time to assimilate the entire Alpha quadrant. This is where Star Trek Armada begins, putting you in the shoes of the four major races, Federation, Klignon, Romulan, and the Borg.

Cons: Way too buggy
I have to admit that this game is good to look at. However, I was only able to find this out at my friend's house, when he played
the game. Let me explain....

Expanding the Universe

by cnelzie , Sep 27 '00
Pros: Expandable as anything, leading off to endless enjoyment
Cons: Can become repetitive over time
If you are looking for a fun real time strategy game give Star Trek: Armada a serious look. As a real treat for Star Trek aficionados this place takes place during the Next Generation T.V. series just after what is referred to as "The Dominion...

Boldly going where others have been

by Mojumbo , Jun 02 '00
Pros: Fun to play, lots of variety, almost a new take on the genre
Cons: Bugs, similar to other RTS
For years, people have been trying to make good on a Star Trek license. Presently, Activision seems to be milking said license for all it's worth, and there's good news: it's working.

Now, I'm no huge Star Trek fan. I've seen a couple...
