While these options are refreshingly creative, and unleashing the more devastating superweapons on your buddy can be quite satisfying, the multiplay still suffers from the same problems haunting the single-player game — even more so if two people play as the same race. It might be just the level of content getting thrown at you all at once that can cause some players to give up on the game, or it could be the chaotic combat or the formulaic RTS approach.
For anyone else, and especially the thorough Star Trek fan, Armada 2 has enough feature creep to hold their attention. It also includes one map that can be played in either Instant Action Skirmish or Multi-player.
In the Single Player mission you. The demo includes the one Single Player mission of the Federation Campaign. It also includes one map that can be played in either Instant Action. Star Trek : Armada demo is an interesting game telling about the three major powers of the Alpha Quadrant, once allied against a common foe, begin planning for the future.
For now, an uncomfortable peace has settled in the galaxy. On Federation planets. Here each race has strengths and weaknesses that can be exploited and knowing what they are will make the difference between winning and being annihilated. The multiplayer game has been significantly improved and is more balanced than before. With the addition of Species , a more even battle can be had. Often the Borg were extremely dominant and difficult to defeat.
Otherwise, not much has changed so if you enjoyed Star Trek: Armada before, you should enjoy this too. The detail can be best described as moderate and the cut-scenes could definitely have been improved.
A tactical view was also added, giving a different perspective, but rarely is it usable during battle. Loyal to the Star Trek series, most of the sounds fall in line with the actual audio used in the movies and TV series. Patrick Stewart returns, adding his voice for Picard, and J. Hertzler gives his voice to Martok, helping to bring the game alive. Some sequels are released with minimal improvements and can be huge disappointments.
It is still a conventional RTS game and has issues with longevity as it can become boring and repetitive, but with the thirty missions and with multiplayer capabilities, you should get your money's worth. Although, the graphics could have been better, Star Trek fans will enjoy this addition to the Star Trek universe, while others may not appreciate it as much. Browse games Game Portals.

Game review Downloads Screenshots Overall rating: 7. Overall rating: 8. GameFabrique The game was developed by Mad Doc Software. It is the sequel to Star Trek: Armada. We might have the game available for more than one platform. Star Trek: Armada II is currently available on these platforms:. It just had the splash screen for a few seconds and then nothing.
I tried opening it both with and without the 'no cd' exe. Also had the patch installed. As someone else noted it apparently doesn't work well with Windows Also didn't work when trying to change the compatibility with older Windows. Oh well, at least Armada 1 works! PS wincdEMUmounter is the mounter that helped me get the battle net version of warcraft 2 to work that I also downloaded from this site. This is what i did to get this to run -download armada 2 from link above -download a.
If you are trying to play this it does not play well with windows 10 however in the compatbility tab select windows and it should start, it may not be as good as the first one however it does have the best mod avilable which turns the game into babylon 5 rts game which is awesome.
Compared to the original, this was pretty rubbish - less variety to the races, borg cubes that went down like flies, missions with more set-in-stone failure conditions so whereas in the first game, if you were spotted during a stealth mission, the enemy would all start fighting you and making the mission harder but still giving you a chance, in this game getting spotted would mean the mission immediately ends with a game-over message.
Fortunately the modding community made so many improvements that they effectively made a third game from this, known as Fleet Operations. If you download this game, it's essential to download that mod.

You often control the Enterprise, and as far as gameplay and enjoyment, the sequel exceeds the original since it's more difficult. Unfortunately, though, the creators tossed a few good features from the original that would have made a big difference. The fully animated video sequence that followed and preceded each level in the original is missing and has been replaced with the captain's voice narrating the objectives of the mission and plot with camera shots of the ships moving about.
While not inherently bad, and typical of many other games in the genre, it's more exciting to watch the story unfold through action sequences.
But, you still have a plethora of options available for unit creation, and the Instant Action mode has limitless possibilities. You can still change perspectives, allowing you to fully enjoy the action, and Armada II has an action window that depicts battles on the right hand corner of the screen.
Clicking on it takes you directly to the scene, where you can quickly get into the action, and you can zoom in or out using the mouse scroll wheel. In single player mode, units you create are often limited to the circumstances of each mission, but as you progress, more technology and research becomes available.
An interesting and unique aspect concerns researching both defensive and offensive tools for your armada, such as researching a shield generator for the sovereign-class ships that can be used in battle.
You eventually acquire three separate research stations: a Federation research facility, science station, and Vulcan research institute, with the latter used for researching and developing more powerful armor, weaponry, engines and life support for all of your ships.
In Armada II, you don't have a need to research and develop new ships; they just appear as you progress. The single player game is nicely designed with three campaigns putting you in the control seat of three different races: the Federation, Klingons, and the Borg.
