Same here, and as of recently I have been working of a remaster for the game. The remaster is a combination of 3 versions of the game, 2 of which are complete. I am pretty content with my remastering of the game, but a second opinion is always appreciated. Would you like a download of the game so you can test out my work?
As stated, it wasn't fully tested before being released. With mods and patches the game is very enjoyable. The adding of new ships is easy and I like being able to modify my ship's weapons, shields, thrusters, computer, armor, and warp core. Unlike SFC II, the Klingon ships also can cloak. In SFC III, when they cloak, they're CLOAKED. One had better have anti-cloak capability and the Ops officer who knows his stuff. Not to mention your officers gaining skill and watching the ship respond.
@71superbee3 Exactly. This game in my opinion, really was the launch point for games like Legacy and ST: On Line. If you have the game and have a hand at manipulating the files you can make a fairly awesome mod of the game either in campaign or conquest mode with the option to add more ships and balance each ship by race and design.
But you were able to engage the Borg. For those who may not know, this game was somewhat rushed onto the shelves in coordination with the release of Star Trek "Nemesis" in theaters.
@@gamepad3153 It was set a few months before the events of Nemesis and made subtle references to it. DLC had a mini Nemesis campaign where you could fly the Scimitar, and added it to the main game. Even without the ability to fire while cloaked it was still an I-win button for whoever flew it! 😆
Great game and even better memories. However, one thing I'm noticing now that I'm older. We used Type 8 shuttlecraft on offensive deployment. The post-Dominion war Federation was even more desperate than I first thought.
@Hyeesa You can add the Lyrans to this game. You have to go into the Assets folder and add them. The game will allow up to 5 additional races. However, you'll need to use the map editor to add each additional race, otherwise the game will crash. You can download a free version of the map editor at FileFront.
can i be honest that still barely makes any sense if they tired something like that oh wait in deep space nine they actually expected to defend themselves against a whole dominun fleet with just 2 runabouts, the definet and a bird of prey in one episode.... so never mind?
actually romulan warbrids are kind of tough a fleet of 20 romuan warbirds and the toughest ships from the cardasians actually manged to survive 10 min? against 150 dominion ships.
+dan23 uk in chess you rarely send your big guns first. Almost always send the pawns out first. They are useful in drawing the enemy out or distracting them.
rudeangrant Yes. Go to Mod DB and look for Jan_B’s patch. You can also click on my user name “AlDaja” on the site, we provided a link to his download page.
I didn't like the fact that this game was set in the next generation continuuity. Damn, i missed my Lyrans and their ESG generators. At least they could have used the opportunity to let you play the cardassians or something, but nooo.
This intro was brilliant, but the actual game was pure shit!! I had a friend buy it for my birthday and stopped playing it after a couple of hours. Battles were so slow, dull and everything just felt crap! I never picked it up again after those few hours.
Then it was your loss ... with patches and personal tweaks it offers great fun.. add a mod and the available ships is almost endless... I still play SFC III daily..
Is this a joke? Diplomatic workhorses leading the charge in a pitched Sortie? where are the Akiras, where are the Defiants? Why is the Akira depicted as so pathetic. it has more firepower then a Galaxy, or Sovereign? One could dispatch a trio of Romulan Warbirds no problem. Where are the fighters? what's with the shuttles...
Another great Star Trek game, timeless classic.
loved all these games, made my childhood

We need a remake of that awesome Game!
Just play the old game......................
Fourth edition, but bring back the old races
And remake Klingon Academy
This was pretty much the Prototype of STO Space Sections, man i love this game! ^^
I absolutely loved this game!!

This nostalgia...just killed me. and the minute i saw this I had a long grin on my face :DDDDDDDD

interesting,even though the story focused on the Federation,The Klingon Empire,and the Romulans at the time.

Another feature I enjoy. In SFC II you only have impulse. In SFC III you have warp speed. The ships can also move in reverse.
Loved this game
This take on the Trek universe sounds pretty rad not gonna lie having not played the games
Unity 1 will be the next ST web series. IMO.
Great game and even better memories. However, one thing I'm noticing now that I'm older. We used Type 8 shuttlecraft on offensive deployment. The post-Dominion war Federation was even more desperate than I first thought.
Not a fan of star trek space combat sims ....
But this particular game was very underrated! Loved it and its storyline!

@eyeofbast
I've also created my own maps and set up nine races. You can even set up alliances between the races.
@x64600
If you have the game you'd understand. In SFC 3, shuttles act as fighters and fire both phasers and disruptors.

Shuttles act as cannon fodder is what you mean lol
This was better than any nutrek 😂
I still have StarFleet command I.
Unity One reminds me on Starbase 47 aka Starbase Vanguard from the novels.
@Thor13332
Me too, been playing it week for the first time in years.
I think the Akira class is starting to become the new Miranda class...
Cool intro! I've only played the first two but not this one.
Guess this was best opening in the series for video games?
@eyeofbast Thanks for the tip, altough it seems unlikely i will try it. I barely play games these days. ( Having a job and all. )
They should bring back SFC
STO sux
Can you do a video of Star Trek Armada intro?
i am sorry but why does patrik swearts captains log sound a bit off like seriously he should be an expert a this.
where i can do the donwload for torrent?
um why are they sending shuttle crafts to take on a romulan warbird?
In the game they act as fighters ... they also draw fire away from your ship while taxing your enemies targeting computer.
@volcan2day
PC
Why would u have shuttles attacking lol 😂 those quantum torpedoes should have made a big explosion.

They are also good at destroying subsystems
Hey guys does this work on windows 8?
rudeangrant Yes. Go to Mod DB and look for Jan_B’s patch. You can also click on my user name “AlDaja” on the site, we provided a link to his download page.
I got a new computer and this game doesn't work on it. I'm very sad.
LOL
You have to run in compatibility. There is a program floating around that helps ensure the game runs on modern machines
a single akira could defeat three warbirds? are you insane?

Where are the fighters? what's with the shuttles...
