I was hoping to spot a "Not in game graphics" disclaimer which some people use when they make their machinima advertisements... unfortunate, does not look like the game that I and many others expected it to be.. just looks dated.. before release surely is not a good sign.

Well it's an MMO, probably looks crap so lots of people are able to play it without having a decent computer.

Hmm, fair point, but graphics options?
Low end users don't have to have res and AA/AF maxxed.. if your going to try and sell a game, you let the high end users have the high end options, and most definitely market those high res screenshots and gameplay.

For something that makes a point of claiming to be HD.. it is kinda 2002 looking
 
The explosions are a bit... pathetic :P. A ship going boom in Star Trek always made a huge bang with a big, satisfying explosive wave.

That looks like someone threw some yellow and orange paint out of an airlock or something :).

The space parts look like they could be fun, but the away team sections just look bad. Everyone is a few feet apart firing their phasers while standing still. I hope when the game goes live they have added the ability to fire from behind cover and have tweaked the enemy AI a bit. Whenever you see phaser fights in any of the series, the first thing everyone does is dive for cover.

It looks no worse that WoW, and would that be as popular as it is if it looked and ran liked Crysis?

MMO's are never about looking good.

Surely the graphics should be scaleable though? Granted at basic level it should run on low end specs, but the high end users should also be able to take advantage of better visuals?
