Star Trek Online

[Riskygodfather]

I bet you've all heard of this but in the guys over at perpetual entertainment are working on an mmo called Star Trek Online(STO).
It is predicted to be out by 2007. Sounds REALLY awesome, but I wanna know what you guys think.

Im joining as soon as beta comes. But i dont kno if they r internet based or client based. And if it is client based it better not be for PC.

[Chief]

Granted, it's for PC.

I read about that on Gamespot.

The good news is we have time to buy or upgrade PCs before the game comes out.

[Riskygodfather]

Spock, this is exactly the reason that I have a pc. Most games are not made for mac

[spock]

all to true. I want one for Age of Empires III.  :P

I'm hoping they do a good job with this game.  I was disappointed with the Star Wars Galaxies MMO.  I'm not sure TREK will work with this type of format of game.  But, time will tell.

Rick might be right, but even if the game is half decent, I would still play it a lot. Just the thought of a startrek mmo makes the hair on my arms stand up.

I'm not a real big MMO player. I tried AO once because I got a free month trial from my cousin, but that's pretty much it. However, I'm sure to be the first in line to get this when it comes out. The ST universe is a really diverse and complicated place, and if they manage to pull this off (because it wouldn't be the first time a ST game failed to deliver), it should be a really great game. But it will probably be the only MMO I'd play, considering the main reason I don't play them is the montly fee.

But if that doesn't work, there is an other MMO in developement, a free one, called Destiny's Wind. It's fan-based, and so far looks very promissing. http://www.destinyswind.org/index.php

I'll just play Elite Force untill they come out.  ;)

I used to play runescape and if Trek MMO is as good and detailed as runescape, ill never tear my eyes from this screen again  :o

[Riskygodfather]

Well good luck ever seeing again if spock if you're never gonna tear your eyes from the screen. lol.

[spock]

Ill need it  ;D

Spock I also suggest getting a pc by the time the beta comes out. OR ELSE :o

[Sam X]

i'm really looking forward to this one. i hope it's extensive, there's so much they can use from the franchise. i wonder if they will separate out gameplay by era or if you have to progress through time?
i haven't been very impressed with any of the trek games thus far. elite force and bridge commander were okay. starfleet command was decent but it never seemed to end or even progress.

I'm looking forward to this game. I'm not a big gamer but this sounds like fun.
