Star Trek Vs. Star Wars

i was comparing it to star wars tech so it drops it down to 0.15 against ST

In this, they share a distinct similarity with Storm Troopers.

Voyager and her crew may have outmaneuvered the Borg on several occasions, but in every single circumstance there was extenuating circumstances.

And they are both vastly overrated.

AT-AT's dont fall over trying to make a turn , and luke was in other terms a super soldier. he didnt have to be a jedi to do what he did .he had a very high mid chlorian count so like anakin is able to preform amazing feats with no training .learn more about SW before you start calling their heavy weapons crap.

What did he do that was so fancy? He bataranged his way up, cut a hole in it, and threw a grenade in didn't he? That sounds easy.

he cut a hole in it with a lightsaber , i dont think anyhthing else would cut through it that easily . And if it so easy than why didnt the rebels just charge them all and cut holes in the bottom lke you say would be easily done .

Not to mention Storm Troopers have a much higher onscreen mortality rate. 😄

Lack of equipment.

If they really wanted to, and if they had forewarning, they could have made directional charges that blow through the apparently weaker under armor and wreck its inner areas. But they didn't so that kind of rules that out, plus I digress.

It was a clever move but it wasn't exactly the most complex.

What about Jem'Hadar vs Clones or Droids?

I'm okay with a .2 percent chance. AT-AT's were designed with Star Wars technology in mind. Trek has technological options that the Rebels did not have. Handheld weapons capable of blowing up buildings would be just one. Transporting a photon grenade inside the AT-AT would be another. Tractoring the walker off its feet would be still another.

You are aware that a photon torpedo has an explosive yeild as powerful as some of the most powerful hydrogen bombs that exist, don't you?

Using a photon torpedo against an AT-AT is like the empire state building to swing at a baseball.

The thing about star wars and star trek is that you cant really compare them against each other in a fight , both technologies were adapted to their galaxies type of warfare .

This is incorrect.

Hundreds to thousands of Star Wars/Star Trek fanboys can't be wrong.

Romulan Scorpions? They basically act as APCs. What Star Wars implements would dent their armor?

Also, stormtrooper armor is little more than "environmental suits" by Starfleet standards.

Who needs apcs when you have this sweet ass dune buggy.

It has a gun in the back too so it's like a warthog or something. You could probably flip it by punching it too.

He said grenade.

Torpedo would be sweet to see though.

LOL

He did.

I missed that.

I read "photon" and assumed it was swiftly followed by "torpedo". Lulz.

So, yeah. I feel REALLY dumb right now. 😮

Don't feel bad. I'd probably make the same mistake. 🙂

So, has anybody begun debating the merits of the new Star Trek universe created in this year's movie? Warp Speed that can cover the distance between Earth and Vulcan in minutes? Transwarp Transporter capability able to beam objects interstellar distances?

tbh, none of that is new...it's just the time line it''s set in has been shifted forward technology wise...

Warp speed on that level has not been common for the Federation in the Ds9/Voyager/Nemesis era. At average maximum warp, it would take Starfleet hours, if not days, to travel to Vulcan. We saw the trip in minutes (while McCoy was still treating Kirk's symptoms).

The ability to beam across a solar system, or even several light years, was also never common Federation tech. The only time I recall it even being used was when Dukat used it in Ds9. But who knows? Nimoy Spock seems to imply that Scotty's equation is common knowledge in his time.

I think you may have something about the technological compression within the new timeline. Perhaps faster warp drive was developed by Nero's initial attack. Still, even with these developments, Nero's mining clunker was STILL able to easily outrun the Enterprise, which suggests that Romulan and Starfleet ships from Nero/Nimoy Spock's time would be even faster.

Ever consider that it might not be the speed they've changed but the distance between Earth and the Vulcan homeworld.

Since the timeline changed, not the location of planets, the space between vulcan and earth would be the same.

Time traveling back to the timeline alone could be cause to significantly change it. Nero's presents alone could've changed the location of earth or even vulcan - read about time travel in quantam physics.

Now i'm not gonna go into detail because i'll bore people.

No. Kinnery's right. It wouldn't change the distance at all.

And, I read somewhere the that the upgrade to technology they had was from reverse engineering the technology they recoved from the data on the Narada. So, yeah, they did improve their technology due to the Narada, explaing the fancy pants displays and faster warp travel.
