Star Trek Online

[alohellofan]

Played some of it....I need alot more practice

[thatonezombie]

I am watching Giantbomb play the beta and I SUPER want to play it. But I will wait for the game to go retail

[ebc]

I just installed my client and tried to log in but it says the login server timed out! t_t

damn these internet games with their unreliable login servers!

[ebc]

I got on!

lol here's my character Yoonatron



man this game is geeky!!~

I helped this dude with some computer issues


Shot some borgs


Teleported out into space and was like WTF@! Am I sposed to be standing in the middle of space like this


Then my spaceship thingo finally appeared and I flew around and shot some stuff


Then I went to this planet and got a rifle and did some mission


Then I got back in my ship and went to dock at the space station and this happened


I thought that was cool! But that's kinda fake don't you think? Those spaceship things are sposed to be a lot bigger right?

Eventually my character appeared and I ran around and picked up some quests.
Then I beamed back to my ship which wasn't there so I stood on the Earth for a bit waiting for it to appear.



And that was my fun for the day!

[Comrade]

I really wish I could play this.  Looks like SO much fun.    Unfortunately, I don't have time and I also suck at games.  Someone would kill me after 3 seconds. But wow... I can dream. *___*  I love the glitches, Dave. xDDD

[writerserenyty]

ffffff want.

I don't know if I should, given my time and money limitations (college, grr) but I want to...

[zoolander]

Nice update Dave!

Then I got back in my ship and went to dock at the space station and this happened


I thought that was cool! But that's kinda fake don't you think? Those spaceship things are sposed to be a lot bigger right?

I don't even know if I can explain with words how much I wanted to laugh when that happened on the Giant Bomb quick look. I was trying to hold it in because there were people around but I ended up making squeaky sounds instead. :/

I'm sure they all think I'm insane now.

[thatonezombie]

Oh man, when their ship ended up in the water 

Lucky that Brad got twin Vulcan ladies for security

[alohellofan]

Bummer, server is busy.

[thatonezombie]

I can dock at Deep Space Nine. I am sold.

[jaysonnj]

The game was much improved from the start of open beta. It sold me. Played all day today, first day of headstart.

Anybody decide to play this? Would love to see some hipstaz cruising around.

[Mugen]

Also: bumping. Does anyone actually play this?

[Asmodai]

Nope, I gave up on it in beta - some massive problems and the fixes I've seen so far haven't been nearly enough to lure me back.

Plus, I have too much else going on in my life to want to play another MMO right now.

Our latest content update, Season Two: Ancient Enemies, will be available in July 2010. In Ancient Enemies, you'll encounter and do battle with even more of Star Trek's iconic races, enjoy all new Episodes and experience Star Trek Online in brand new ways. Here's some of what you can expect in Season Two: Ancient Enemies:

We're raising the level cap from 45 all the way to 51.

With the new distinction comes a new set of rewards and content:

• New Tier 5 ships for both the Federation and Klingon factions. The Federation will receive an Exploration Cruiser retrofit featuring saucer separation, a Tactical Escort retrofit with a non-combat cloaking device and a Long Range Science Vessel retrofit with ablative generators. The Klingon Empire will receive the Kar'Fi Carrier, a Fek’Ihri Tactical Carrier with kamikaze S'Kul Fighters.
• Level 51 versions of every Special Task Force mission and Fleet Action.
• Mark XI gear rewards.

Klingon Episodes
In Season Two: Ancient Enemies, the Klingon faction will feature eight brand new Episodes tailored specifically to the Empire.

These Episodes star the Fek'ihri, the fabled enemy of Kahless, founder of the Klingon Empire. In Season Two, the Fek'ihri have returned and have again set their eyes upon Qo'noS. It's up to you and your friends to protect the jewel of the Empire from occupation!

The Federation Diplomatic Corps
There's more to life than leading with the sword. The Federation Diplomatic Corps brings subtlety to galactic turmoil. To kick off the new gameplay option, we're introducing First Contact missions in which you'll meet and interact with brand new civilizations.

As you progress with your diplomacy, you'll earn special ranks and rewards within the Diplomatic Corps, so you'll be rewarded for leading with the olive branch rather than the arrow.

Now Entering: Fluidic Space
In Season Two: Ancient Enemies, you'll continue your interaction with the Undine, venturing into their native Fluidic space to learn more about the enigmatic species and their struggle with the Borg.

The Undine story continues with five new Episodes, a Fleet Action and all new Deep Space Encounters.

Introducing Mini-Games

• Coming to a space station near you is the casino game Dabo.
• Anomaly Scan is a new way to discover resources in-game.

Feature Episodes, Weekly

• In addition to all the great story-based Episodes we've got on tap for you, we'll be releasing new Feature Episodes every week, starting in August. These Episodes will introduce a new neutral mission giving race, the Deferi. Players of any level from both factions will be able to aid the Deferi against a new adversary. Be sure to keep an eye out for these special Feature Episodes as you enjoy Season Two!

Customization And More
We've got some great quality of life features headed your way, too. Some new improvements include:

• Fleet Emblems: Fleets can customize their own emblems and display them on ships, giving a Fleet a unified appearance in space.
• Improved Klingon Customization: All new costume options for Klingon Captains, and we've redesigned existing costume options to look better.
