This Saturday debuted a new kind of content for Star Trek Online, and I think, possibly a turning point for the game.
That content was the first of the new weekly episodes. These episodes are released once a week, and each builds on the last to tell a specific story. In this case, you find yourself [...]
One of the really nice things about Star Trek Online is that the developers try and do monthly Engineering Reports, which detail upcoming changes and content that are in testing, development, design or on hold. They’re a really great source of information, and its nice for the community to know exactly what’s being worked on.

As is customary for MMOs, Star Trek Online is currently near to releasing its next major free content expansion. However prior to its release on the live server (Holodeck), much of the content is currently on the test server (Tribble) so that the userbase can beta test the new content and find any critical bugs.

When Star Trek Online came out, I first had a trial account (as I wasn’t sure if it’d run on my PC or not). Once that expired and I needed a full retail key, I went to Steam and looked at the options available. There I could get the game, or for an [...]

So typically, the night after I make a blog post hoping for more Classic Trek fan-pleasing stuff turning up in Star Trek Online, look what I bump into. Awesome
Sadly it went down a little easy, as long as you avoided the front of it whenever it fired. You get special torpedoes which when [...]
Its things like this that make tie-in games great. Throwing in things that are blatantly fan-pleasing may be an easy move but there’s no denying its also hugely effective
This mission ticks all the boxes. Miral Paris (daughter of Voyager’s Tom Paris and Belanna Torres) has been kidnapped by genetically-modified Klingons. Said Klingons then [...]
So I’ve been playing the game for around a week now. With my buddy key expired, I’ve gone straight out and bought the collector’s edition from Steam (since I figured a download retailer was the quickest way to a new key to get me back into the game). I opted to pay the extra [...]
I’ve followed the development of this game for a while. Regular readers will know that I do like:
a) Star Trek
and
b) MMOs
so really, Star Trek Online was a no-brainer for me.
Sadly, then the minimum specs came out, and I realised my PC was very much scraping the bottom of the barrel and may not run it [...]
I just got back from seeing the new Star Trek movie tonight (special advance preview showing ahead of its release next week), and thought I’d throw out a brief review. I’ll keep it spoiler free as the film’s not out yet though.
Its excellent.
J.J. Abrams has gathered an outstanding cast, and put together a [...]
