I just hope they decide to show starship weapons as being ultra-powerful instead of pathetic pea-shooters. Photon torpedoes, for example, are supposed to be multi-megaton area-effect weapons, not artillery shells that scorch a few square meters of hull plating. There has been far too much of the latter in most Trek since TMP.
How would they visualize that though? If one photon torpedo has a multi-megaton explosive blast, than the explosion from one warhead would envelope the entire ship. I just don't think its visually feasible to have weapons in that magnitude, much like Star Wars claims the ships have multi-megaton weapons but onscreen we just see small explosions outside of the Death Star.
Not to sound too much like a purist, but whenever the TOS Enterprise was attacked, either by beam or torpedo, the ship would be enveloped. Heck, an incoming energy projectile normally grew and grew until it took up the viewscreen. I could definitely be wrong about this, but I think TWOK started the trend of torpedoes acting as smaller warheads up until the end of Enterprise.
