I admit I am a Trekkie, sorta

Ok, ok, not a hardcore one but I do love everything that Star Trek is so, I paid for the beta of Star Trek Online, official release is February 2nd I think but I have been playing the open beta of it and I am loving it. It is an MMO and it is too cool for school really. Swooping in to help your friends to battle those nasty Klingons, going on away teams, having your own ship, mine is called the U.S.S. Bounty (hehehehe).

The great thing of this MMO is that noone can do the team kill, you either work together or you do not, to be able to play the old missions from Star Trek or to explore strange new worlds on your own, it is just fabulous. The graphics are yummy and once the headstart commences I will be able to keep my character. At the moment we all have a character and team and ship but that will be reset on January 26th, which is when the headstart starts and we can get ahead of the newbies. I cannot wait to level up and get to the Galaxy Class ship :D Anyway, I have not had a lotta time to play with it as such but whatever time I have had with it, I have thoroughly enjoyed :D




Ok, apparently the headstart starts on January 29th ;)
I have been watching this one too!

I'm a little concerned that it will have a limited player base though. I was burnt by Tabula Rasa (which was a niche game too) when it's servers were shutdown because the player base became too small to support the infrastructure.
Hey wirra, during the open beta, there were already as much as 50,000 players at one time, I think that STO will ok for the future :)
Stop tempting me ... la la la la la .... :)
There is nothing wrong with a bit of Star Trek. Hold your head (er, ... mask) high
  • Edit
So Jay ... how is Star Trek going now that we are a couple of months in?
I am still loving it mate, I play it for about 20-30 mins a day as a bit of relaxation, the GUI is amazing and it is as deep or shallow of a game really it is up to you how you want to play it :)
