Star Trek Online

Yeah, only recently re-subbed and visually they have done a fair few updates in the +- 6 months since I last played.

Not spent a great deal of time back on it yet, but enjoying so far.

Hope those rumours I heard of ME style combat will come true.

Though one thing I always hated they have not udated, and that is finding your way around!

E.g. mission tells you to go to X system in Y sector, but if you don't know your way around, trying to find something on the galaxy map can be a real pain!

Would be so nice to have something like a "polot course" feature or even something like a text field for typing in something on galaxy map section which will highlight a location matching your input.
 
Now they've done Sector Space, ground combat is next up for the fairy update dust.

The plot course thing does work in the local zone, but not for a location in another zone. Would be nice to fix that.. and it may just happen if role-players shout loud enough.
 
Or if/when they remove the sector borders.

That's gonna be the real test. Moving all the players to the same 'galaxy'. I'm not sure if the network servers could handle that much load. Or whether some other method of seperating the playing population would be needed. It would be nice to see an Eve version of space.. but I doubt it can be made without a complete code re-write.

Judging by their end of beta server event i doubt it could unless they've completely upgraded their hardware. It was nasty but then again there's not that many people play STO anymore.
 
Star Trek Online (PC DVD) for £8 on Amazon - a cheaper way to sub ;)

Just get the game, apply the key to your account and you get 30 free days. Buy multiple and your game time will stack :)
 
CR - Could you just please confirm, this means that even if I cancel my sub via Cryptic and add this new code, it will go IN ADDITION to the remaining playtime I have on my account?

Yes, cancel your sub. Then just apply the key you get sent to your account. Game time stacks - I have done this before.
 
I can confirm that this works. Just went to the STO website, clicked on redeem key and I received 60 more days. Subbed until March now - not sure I can see myself subbing longer than this. Especially with SWTOR on its way.
 
Wheres the cheapest keys then?

Amazon is doing 60 days for more expensive then if your direct debt 2months in a row LOL.

Others seem to make it only about 5 pounds cheaper for 60days.

any suggestions?
