I downloaded it and it seams to run FASTER than the first Star Fleet Command. Maybe that's because it's a demo but who knows. I thought it was awesome. Most of the colors improved making chat and text easier to read. The interface (for federation anyway) is pretty much the same when you get into the game. The pre-game interface is MUCH improved.
You can also make formations if you have more than 1 ship which will come in handy.
I've finished the first 2 tutorials and played 1 MP game against the AI. It was tied 1 to 1 when I quit.
The graphics are a lot better and I DON'T have a 3D card
. The explosions and phaser fire is cooler too. The AI seems a little smarter.
I'm playing a MP game tonight with a friend and I'll tell you how it goes. But I'm definitally getting this game. (Almost finished the FED. campaign in SFC 1 but I could never kill all the planet killers. I had 3 mines for 6 planet killers!!!! And conventinal weapons don't work. Only way to kill then (Like in the show) is to drive a Light Crusiser (or bigger) into it and self destruct it. And I only hae 1 ship!!! AGGGGG!!!! And there was a nuts Klingon mission I couldn't beat. And never got very far with the Romulans (Although they are my favorite MP race to play
)
