Title: Star Trek Online: New Blog Update
Post by: Rico on July 21, 2007, 04:39:42 AM
The developers of Star Trek Online have started a new blog to pass on information on the game.  Here's a small piece of the first entry....

DevLog
Entry 1.0 - Hailing Frequencies Open
(a.k.a. "The Coolest Thing")
Stardate 60998.6 (July 14, 2007)

Welcome to the first edition of the STO DevLog, a periodic behind-the-scenes look into the development of Perpetual Entertainment's Star Trek Online. During the months before we're ready to roll out STO in a big, BIG way, we hope you'll make the DevLog the place to go for informative, entertaining, and intriguing peeks into the making of the most ambitious Star Trek game in the history of the galaxy.

I'm your host and STO Story Lead, Mike Stemmle. I'm also, as my friends, family, and coworkers can attest, an unabashedly rabid Trekkie. How rabid? Let's just say that music from Star Trek: The Motion Picture was played during my wedding ceremony and leave it at that, okay?

As a big ol' Star Trek fan, you'd think that the coolest part of my job is working with Gene Roddenberry's fabulous creations. And make no mistake, wiling away one's days adding to the legends of Kirk, Picard, and Sisko (among hundreds of others) is an exceptionally spiffy way to make a living.

But it's not the coolest thing.


Full entry here and some cool pictures like the one below....
