Barring the console porting for direct x 9, I'm suprised a little more effort isnt made for us pc users (as regarding direct x 10 and 11).

It is indeed. Login was surprisingly quick and smooth considering how many tens to hundreds of thousands of people were no doubt trying to log in at the same time.
All ive seen was one thread on the forum mentioning dual cards. It amounted to the person having to disable one to get the game working properly. I only use a single card so didn't pay the thread much heed, so it could well have just been an individual problem. I think CaptainRAVE mentioned a few pages back that he's using a X2 so he'll probably know more.

From what I can remember their engine isn't very good at using multiple GPUs - not even sure if it is able to. Can't answer your question much better than this. I am sure they will know on the official forums!
Thats not good
If it plays smoothly using one of your cards then there shouldn't be a problem surely? Even on a 4850 it's smooth as silk for me.
I have maxed the settings out, and generally its smooth yes but when the action gets hectic and there are many sprites it does slow down considerably.
What settings/specs/drivers you guys using?
Turn vsync on mate, it's off by default, which means you're pushing higher than 60~ fps (or whatever your refresh rate is) and it's unessecary. I was pushing 87c on my 4850 without vsync, with it I'm in high 60's / low 70's.
There was a suggestion on the forum about that, on the STO forums that is, to introduce a toggle to turn them off. Personally I use both, but that's just me.
i just think there not needed on ship as it takes immersion away , at least devs renamed the shields port and starboard......
few ideas i had was for torp limits to , the lack of torpedos in the st films etc was always an issue , so maybe devs can limit the amount for torpedos each ship has and have to rearm , or have the replcator make some at a cost so the game doesnt degrade into fire everything all the time
Can someone explain the starbase 24 mission? I go to the base, destroy the ships. Go onboard rescue some scientists and download some data. I beam out and then im in my ship surrounded by a thousand klingons. On my object list i still have "rally point". But i dont know where to go from there =/ If i revisit the star base i can do the whole reboarding thing again and ive done this at least 4 times now...
Check your map, when you get out of the starbase you have to go to the rally point as you pointed out, and it will have put a white circle of where to go on your area map. The reason you are surrounded by Klingon's is because the zone constantly respawns every 5 minutes from when the main Starbase "kill X Klingons" mission has finished.
