PC version or PS4 Version. Which is better?
PC version or PS4 Version? Which is better? The zoom feature on the PC is much better I think. Your ship looks very small on a large TV using the PS4 console

from someone whos owns both a gaming rig, a xbox, and a ps4 i have to say this.

the gound combat in this game plays immensly better with a controller but other than that pc is the way to go.

on pc you get better preformance depending on your pc build, as well as the fact that most of the promotional giveaways for games by perfect world are for the pc edition. in fact there is currently one going on at alienwarearenas website

Lol i disagree so much. Specially when we talk about the terrible ports most of the console games get to the computer. Completely horrendous. In those cases, even if you will enjoy more raw graphic quality, everything else will be totally better in the console. Controls, sound, playability, etc. Specially controls. Every single game i play in my computer that wont even let me to re-map my keys, or my mouse, or they will constantly show me the typical X or Y all the time, coming from console, is a clear symptom that game in the computer version is going to be garbaje. It always happens.

Of course, in this case STO was designed to be played on PC, and the port to console is not worthy at all. If you have the choice, of course PC version will be always a million times better. Cryptic only released the console versions to keep filling their pockets, but the fact is the console versions are light years away in a lot of aspects. Well, not in all of em. Talking about bugs and broken things, they are in par more or less. :d

i have to agree with you to a point. when it comes to mmorpgs such as star trek. majority of the time pc will always be the better bet. bc they were orignally intended for the pc crowd most likely.

for shooter games a keyboard is way more responsive than a gamepad. but then those games also attract the scriptkiddies who use cheatengine, thus bringing the pc versions to there doom

for action games, controls are almost always better for console, although graphics will most likely be superior on pc. and most of the time you can plug in your xbox /ps4 controler if you prefer pc.

for rpg games. depends on the audiance it was targeted for. for example dragon age origins was much better on pc, but when dragon age 2 came out, they took away the tacticle combat that made the pc version and focused on the action combat. thus making it feel awkward on pc without a controller

I have played many games on both Console and PC (including STO). PC is almost always the better version (the only time it's not is with bad ports). STO is much, much, better on PC.

Yeah, PC lends you much more control, speed and somewhat ease of access. But that is just because I got used to a keyboard.

I alwasys wonder why this question is ever asked. We got into PC gaming to achieve better gaming through improved graphics, processing speed, and unbeatable over-all experience. It only gets better and better, whilst consoles seem to look like time never really matters. Stupid long load time.
