Star Trek Online

For people having issues - it just seems like the site is under a lot of load and they are probably busy making changes. I wouldn't bother trying to log-in tonight though - I did warn you...
 
How many people are going to go down the Klingon route out of interest... and can you do both?

Have a char thats a klingon for PvP and a char thats a star fleet officer for PvE ??

They seem to have put an awful lot more content into the star fleet side of the game. A group of us really wanted to roll as klingons but I can't help feel we're going to miss out an so much content because of it.

Yes, you can have both. In the beta there were only two character slots, not sure if there will be more for release. Tbh you don't really need more than one for each playable race. There is a lot less content for Klingons, but don't let that put you off. They are different and actually really fun to play.
 
I've signed up to their forums with g0rd (gee zero are dee).

I assume that becomes your game name? Or do I need to follow the process a bit more to get my handle?

That is your @handle - essentially your account name. Make a captain e.g. Bob and you will be Bob@g0rd

Can add @KabaalGen


Added.

Edit: If you want, when I get ingame tonight I can make a private OCUK chat channel. If I call it OCUK - all you will need to go is got to chat settings (bottom right of your chat window), go to the channels tab, type OCUK and if I have created it, then it will say JOIN. We can then talk amongst ourselves and you can all ask questions regardless of the zone/instance that you are in :)

Sounds good.

Also, I know it's probably a pain by now, but any chance you can add the names of the ocuk forum user to the "@handle" bit on the frontpage as it'll eventually get a bit confusing when people start using names that aren't their ocuk name.

Good idea - I will do that when I get back to the office after lunch :D

played all day yesterday, am liking it!.. waiting for open Beta.

I've been trying to find out whether there will be monthly subsription or it's just buy the game and play... I see threads from last year saying that it will, but I cannot find any official confirmation on that.

The game website does not say there is a subscription.

There will be but we still have no idea how much or if there will be any special offers!
 
This is an older client but it's maxing out my connection speed at just shy of 1MB/s http://games.on.net/file/31515/Star_Trek_Online_Beta_Client_v20091228

That client is from the end of december, any of you closed beta folks know if the CB client was patchable to OB? If so then this'll do nicely as its only a 2 hours or so DL.

If I am understanding your questions correctly, the CB client will patch to the OB client fine. Mine did - of course the proof will be when we run the game tonight :)
 
Mines been on 100% for ages now (about an hour!), on around 200kb/s. Not sure what's wrong with it :/

Scared to restart steam incase it goes back to 75% (what it was when I started today).

Just stick with it. The servers are going to fail in a big way at 6pm anyway, so I doubt you would miss much!
