Star Trek Online

Hi all!,

Well finally managed to install and have a play for a few hours before the servers go down. Have to say im enjoying it but was hoping that the space fighting would be more in depth etc was probs just me (can you target specific areas of enemy ships?) other than that im at the Earth space port atm just looking about and reading up on skill points and whatnot :)

There is more depth later on e.g. end game I think I have about 18 skills - most of which I have to use when fighting the Borg and Undine - they are tough!
 
Not an amazing list of fixes - the fire all weapons bug is really annoying. Oh well, hopefully there is word on end-game content soon. At least with my lifetime sub if things get stale I can come back in a few months. Hmm, getting bored of pc gaming anyway - e.g. Mass Effect 2 was epic, but got bored immediatly on my second run through.
 
when i get to lt cmd should i get an escort or the new cruiser ?

can you change back further down th eline ?

Escort = dps dealer
Cruiser = tank
Sceince = buffs/debuffs and arguably a better tank

Yes, you can change down the line - all ships can tb bought, you just get a free ticket for one when you level up. Just be careful where you spend your skill points - perhaps try the ships before you spend your skill points!



Wow thats a nice message to have everytime you log in. :rolleyes:

Bug? Or do you need to update?

Edit: I seem to have sold a load on the exchange again overnight - seems I need to farm more this evening :). 13 mil in the bank now I think.
 
Would anyone like a free cdkey for this? I purchased it from Direct2Drive played the beta and unfortunately really don't enjoy the game. So my cdkey for the retail version is completely unused. I've looked at getting a refund but it doesn't seem possible and it's just going to go to waste otherwise.

First person to send contact details (email) will receive it.

Thanks :)

Wow, someone got lucky. Very generous of you.
 
Add me to the list!

OC Forum Name: Aegis
STO Name: @AegisPrime
Captain: Weyland
Ship: USS Aegis :D

Hopefully someone will add you to the fleet before I get home tonight. Will add you to the first post anyway.

got this for my birthday this morning :)

is there a server you are all on and are you fed or kilngon?

Mostly feds and you are more than welcome to join our OcUK fleet :)
 
What to put in the second rear slot on a T3 escort? I have a couple of dual cannons and a torp launcher up front and a turret in the first rear slot, but it seems that you can only have one turret going at a time, so what to put in that other slot?

Another turret - I have 3 on my escort and they work just fine. Annoyingly, fire all weapons is bugged at the moment and the turrets override the cannons. This is a bug however, they should not share any cooldowns.
 
when registering you game do you have to set up a subscription or can you just play the free 30 days first? when i log in and try to patch i get a message at bottom "account problem contact billing support"


sorted it, you do have to set up a sub :/

But you can cancel it before it charges you - you only have to put in payment details right?

Well I have been sent a 5 day trial code, one of my clan mates gave it me and says he will help me play. If I need more help are there people willing to help me?

I have only played wow trial for a couple of hours and it seemed pointless, all it involved was "go kill that pig and you will level up", rinse and repeat... I got bored very fast, I was also really disappointed, the TV advert says "millions of subscribers" I saw know more than 10 people :/

Well that was my first experience of an MMO, I wasn't impressed, hope STO is better!

We will certainly help you. Post your captain name and username - we can invite you to our OcUK fleet. We should be able to help you in most cases :)

On another note, is the test server not live yet? They really messed up with yesterdays patch!
 
Have cancelled my STO lifetime sub. Think I will sub on a month to month basis. There is just so little to do I just cant see myself getting value out of the lifetime sub. Think I will sub for one month and see how it goes.
 
Phone up 0870 490 0617 and select the options to get to billing support. I got through straight away - then just tell them you want to cancel your lifetime sub. The guy asked for my username and password and that was it.

Will probably sub for a month or two - but then will wait to see what happens. That is not to say I am not enjoying the game, I just cant see there being enough content long term. Tbh I think I am getting tired of PC gaming as a whole.
 
Ok three invites to the fleet sent to those that have asked.

Thanks :)

I'm surprised it was that easy. Did they say if you'll now loose your lifetime sub bonuses?

Didn't say - not sure what will happen to my borg character. As long as you do it during the free "30 days" you are OK - it doesnt properly activate until after then. I think I have finally just gotten tired of -

- Nothing to do at level 45
- New bugs introduced with recent patches e.g. the fire all weapons bug that totally gimps my main character
- All of the ATI problems
- MMOs in general

But like I said, I will stick around and take it from month to month. £10 a month is nothing, especially considering how much I spend on other games usually.
 
I'm in the same boat as you, I downloaded the client yesterday and been playing it last night, it's has a lot better tutorial than wow, having a clan member explain it to me also helped!

I'm just a little concerned that people are already canceling saying it doesn't have enough content? I'm confused.com

Was wow as massive aqs it is now? I assume they made it massive when they released all those expansion packs.

I don't want to waste money on STO if no one will be playing it next month.

So whats the deal MMO legends? Is this as good as Half-Life 2 was when it came out or is it the equivalent of MW2???????

I enjoy it anyway :(

Try it and make up your own mind. I will certainly be subbing for a few months yet.
