The following review is the opinion of the review's author [Coldin]
and in no way represents the opinions of this website or its staff.
Where do I begin? ATS - Among the Stars has been a truly rewarding
experience for me. I began my journey as a MUDer and after several
years I accidentally discovered ATS and was immediately overwhelmed.
ATS incorporates so many fantastic features it almost seems too good
to be true. It immediately won me over, back in 1999 and i've been
playing ever since. Ocassionally I'd try out the new graphical games
but I always returned to ATS.
The MUSH includes the largest playerbase you'll find on a MUSH
anywhere, the average being around 50 players online, peaking up to
80.
The players are all super friendly and cooperative, and will welcome
you at once into their Role Playing community, the friendships formed
on ATS are unlike any i've seen on any other online game.
The administration is very social and professional and will assist
you in any way they can.
ATS is the home of the famous ASpace (Space) system used on many
other space oriented MUSHes. However the diverse version used on ATS
is updated and available only on ATS. The Space system, environment
and feeling on ATS is the only one that ever got my adrenaline
pumping.
We have a fully operational economy and combat system, well over 500
space objects including planets, starbases, outposts, ships.
Anomalies include stargates, subspace rifts, wormholes, asteroid
belts (And escape pods if needed!!!), all making the time spent
travelling in space enjoyable and thrilling.
Roleplay is enforced, and space battle is very common as seen
throughout our history. Whether you want to RolePlay on the bridge
of a Federation cruiser with many other players, or perhaps command
your own crew on a Klingon battleship into a heated warzone,
fly a fighter on your own or alongside a fleet of vessels or
roleplay in a fantastic mistery, or roleplay different scenes in a
fully functional holodeck -We have it --*All*---!
To summarize it all up, There's no true way that my words would do
justice to Star Trek - Among the Stars.
You'll just have to drop in and have a look. You'll never leave, no
one does!!
