So you collect resources and build ships as you make your way through the nicely boxed-up campaigns. So it’s a real-time strategy set in the Next Gen universe and played over a flat map pretending to be space. It’s the gaming version of Spot The Difference. And that is exactly what you are expected to do. Not that I didn’t find Armada /vaguely enjoyable, it’s just that I wouldn’t want to play it again. The original may have gone deservedly unnoticed over here, but in the US it was a big enough hit to ensure a cheap and quick remake was promptly knocked off the Activision assembly line. For now, though, we live in the age of Rush Hour2, Hear’Say and Armada II. One day the games industry will be ruled by visionaries willing to throw big bucks at original ideas and create the same sort of atmosphere that Hollywood had in the 70s, when it encouraged the likes of Scorsese and Coppola to make their masterpieces. However, those who jumped in with this second game will probably get frustrated very quickly. If you have played the first game, you will be fine. The problem is the game really does throw you in at the deep end without much explanation for what you have to do or how you have to do it. The story mode is broken up into missions and these can take a couple of hours to beat each! Each one has its own objectives, but they all use the same RTS style gameplay. The story could be told a bit better, but for the most part, the premise alone here was more than enough to get me invested saving the galaxy. Captain Picard decides to just ignore his orders and go on the attack to try and stop the Borg menace once and for all.Īs a Star Trek fan and as a Star Trek fan who loves the Borg, I thought this was pretty cool. It takes place shortly after the events of the first game and this time The Borg has a superweapon and they are able to assimilate a whole world in no time at all.
(Sorry if this has been posted before, searched and couldn't find it.The story of Star Trek Armada 2 is one that I thought was pretty damn cool. Not sure if it'll run on Vista or 7, but it runs fine on XP.
You may need it later, but at all costs avoid hitting the Windows key. Right-click every time you're leaving the observatory, so you get the mission that follows.Īlso keep in mind that alt+ctrl+up arrow rotates the screen 90 degrees. I'd guess the right-clicking skips the video coming up, which crashes the game. You then get the game loading screen with the proceed button, and Riker's on his way to Amargosa. When the screen STARTS to fade from the observatory, right-click. Before, the game always crashed on XP the minute Riker was beaming down to Amargosa.

So we use Game ranger, which is a free small program and is able to host armada as well as other games. Another noted problem is on machines with more then 2 GB ram, armada seems to hate going over 2gb and makes it run into the negatives telling u not enough disk space.įor online play, won servers are no longer supported o joy. Also there are problems known with some sound cards which is more complex to fix and results in screen lag or slow down we are trying to find a way way to fix this. Note: that Sometimes lowering the screen resolution May help fix some gfx problems. Check armada CD is in the drive and gl have fun right click on armada.exe - properties (here comes the fun part) go to armada Dir C:/program files/activistion/star trek - armada Also if you want to come play online you can do. i will try my best to give you guys a check list to do it may help.
#STAR TREK ARMADA II WIN 7 X64 WINDOWS 7#
We all use windows 7 to keep the game from going out of sync. Me and a few old armada vets like 14 of us play late night on game ranger.
Dunno if this is a dead post or not if it is i apologize in advanced.
