lol what u on about Jazzman… basically all Federation Ships can do like Warp 8 to 10.

Enterprise and the Warp 5 NX-01 is 200 years before Star Trek Online.

@ Jimmy, I have never been a fan of Star Trek either. I am going to give this a shot (if it’s cheap), just to see how it plays.

You never know, it could be a fairly decent game, only time will tell.

I won’t be playing this game not even if it was for free. I’ve just never liked Star Trek and I doubt i’d enjoy a game based on Star Trek.

This can be interesting, but knowing star trek, it’s kind of limited. It takes a very long time for humans to become adept at using warp technogies to go inbetween planets quickly (USS NX-01 Enterprise) and even longer to reach warp 7.

So if you expect smooth leveling, don’t. Expect to be a warp 2 space boomer for a LONG time. Considering how slow moving <5 warp engines are and how long and expensive the technology is to make… Oh god. GRINDING TIME!

How have I not heard about this? Looks pretty cool, but I’m assuming it will, as you say, fall off the map after a few months.

I wouldn’t mind trying it out but college stops me from getting too attached to MMOs. I yearn for the days of all day/night gaming again.

I just don’t think it’ll compare to other MMOs, sadly…

I think the gameplay could be interesting… but will have to wait and see.

I bet in 5 years there will still be a hardcore fan base of around 250,000 people playing this game.

From what I’ve read about the game it doesn’t seem to have nearly as much depth as any of the other struggling MMO’s out there:
Warhammer
LoTRO
SWG

Considering these lacked the player base or depth to compete with WoW and STO looks to have even less……

I don’t have any plans to play a Star Trek MMO, although that would be pretty interesting…Actually, I just wanted to say that your caption was epic.
