Calimar From: Joined: June 11th, 2003 Posts: 5 | hats off to your comp for being able to push that much... Mine would have died from the 150 shuttles, then rolled over and died again from this one... 10/10 |
Transmission From: Joined: June 17th, 2004 Posts: 1454 | The ONLY nit pick i have is that some of the other ships could be a little closer, other than that, great 9/10! |
thecrazytrekie From: (ohio) Joined: April 30th, 2005 Posts: 157 | you must have a monster computer if I tryed to put that many ships in, mine would crash 10/10 |
dderidex Joined: September 19th, 2002 Posts: 22 | reminds me of DS9 - ' A Call to Arms' very much 
great pic ! |
RogMan74569 From: (Winston-Salem, NC) Joined: December 25th, 2004 Posts: 87 | My comp would probably explode if I used that many ships LOL 10/10 |
NeoExelor From: (New York, New York) Joined: April 28th, 2004 Posts: 310 | Its only one ship. Hes using the Fleet Backround. |
enterprise_9875 From: (St-Étienne, Québec) Joined: September 5th, 2003 Posts: 14 | @ #4, I couldn't really get closer, because the a few seconds after the game starts, all of the ships swarm away, and that doesn't make a very good pic. 
@#6 The idea was loosly based off that episode. Note that there are no Klingon ships in there, and there's no BoP with the Defiant. But it still looks a lot like it.
Also, just in case some of you are wondering... thoses are SNS Galaxie's and Akira's in there. 
And finaly, I didn't copy/paste this thing, it's in game, 100%, no modifications, except for a little transfer int .jpeg format. |

10/10!! Best PotD I've ever seen. I once attempted to put half as many ships as what you have and BC crashed! What's your computer specs?
Wow, two great PotDs in a row!! |
Zmithe From: (Dorset) Joined: May 31st, 2005 Posts: 25 | It’s nice to see the fleet at attention, and nicely balanced era wise. Once you look past those countless ships, there is a boring background, but apart from that a very good picture created from a very expensive computer, I assume. 9/10 |
Nyiz From: Joined: July 19th, 2004 Posts: 296 | WTF?! Countless ships, my PC would surely crash with so many ships. How much FPS did you have? 0,03? 10/10 |
enterprise_9875 From: (St-Étienne, Québec) Joined: September 5th, 2003 Posts: 14 | Yes, it was very expensive... but, this is the life I chose, it ain't a cheap one!
Anyways, I've got 512 MB of RAM, a P4 3 GHz and most importantly... an ATI Radeon x700 Pro 256 MB. I uploaded this a while back, but I'm pretty sure that my Anti-Alising was set at 6x, and my Anisotropic Filtering was at 16x. But even with all that, I'm pretty sure it was lagging like hell. |
blurb23 From: Joined: September 11th, 2004 Posts: 363 | Ok, seeing as that final scene from A Call to Arms is my favorite scene ever, I reserve the right to nitpick 
There are some areas where the ships are pretty dense, and others in which there are very few ships. Also, the fleet's supposed to be on the on upper left of the screen (but I won't take off for that). I'd have also liked it if the Defiant was closer, so the ships in the fleet were bigger.
All in all, I don't see why everyone likes this pic that much. Sure, it's got a whole lot of ships in it, but that doesn't warrant a 10. I'm going to have to go with a 7/10. Again, this is nothing special aside from the fact that it's got a lot of ships. |
enterprise_9875 From: (St-Étienne, Québec) Joined: September 5th, 2003 Posts: 14 | Hey, I said it was loosley based off it, I wasn't trying to re-create it. But your comments are welcome. 
Oh, and btw, I also consider that scene one of my favorites... man it's cool to see a massive fleet like that! |
pokemona From: (Barrie, Ontario) Joined: November 25th, 2002 Posts: 809 | 10/10 But i actulldently hit 9 |

9/10 |
CaptainCook Joined: May 1st, 2005 Posts: 369 | Many computers could handle this if there wasn't a battle going on, but once you get all those glows flying around the screen, then your frame-rate goes to hell.
Nice screenshot though, 9/10. |
Danny (Staff) From: (Canterbury, Kent) Joined: July 11th, 2002 Posts: 991 | 10/10, Very nice, although one minor nitpick. Where is the the Bird of Prey (if its based on A Call to Arms ) |
enterprise_9875 From: (St-Étienne, Québec) Joined: September 5th, 2003 Posts: 14 | Points at post number 9... |
Nasty_Ashman From: Joined: March 23rd, 2004 Posts: 124 | Are you TRYING to make us humble, less powerful computer user's jealous? A computer powerful enough to create that many ships is surely powerful enough to take over the world?!!?!
I think I'll be on the safe side and say it's a REALLY good pic! 
But seriously though, I like it! I will certainly give this PotD a 10/10!! |
NuclearFieldMarshall From: (Fairfax, Virginia) Joined: May 21st, 2005 Posts: 307 | Very nice pic. One of the best I've seen. 100/10! |
chucklitos From: (New York) Joined: July 6th, 2004 Posts: 37 | a nice potd, but it seems the fleet is rather far away, I'd like it to be a bit cloer otherwise it's great. 9/10 |

Wowbagger Joined: March 19th, 2005 Posts: 107 | My computer just shuddered and its motherboard failed. I had to do CPR to make this comment.
AND ALL I WAS DOING WAS LOOKING AT THE SCREENSHOT!
I am so terribly jealous, but you still get a 10/10. Or maybe a 1/10. Just to spite you. |
Skyhawk637 Joined: April 24th, 2005 Posts: 100 | It's simple to do and we've all seen it before. I can do it. Remember that these ships are not moving with the Targetgroup Override turned on. It's a surprisingly easy pic to get. However, props for the number of ships. I count somewhere around 110 ships excluding the defiant, and who knows how many more are hidden behind the defiant!?
7/10 |
0mega1 Joined: December 31st, 2004 Posts: 113 | i have to agree with the above poster, my vomputer can handle 100+ ships no problem, and ordering the fleet to stop would keep them from moving around 
7/10 for a good effort |
