As per promise I’ll be looking at the Klingon side some of their newly implemented story.  Might perma reroll Klingon, we’ll see.

Troublmaker Plays Star Trek Online #3: Free for all… to play

Sorry for getting this up about 6 hours late guys.  I’ve been sick all day with migraines, flu and -50 degree temperatures.  Tones of fun.  Anyway Star Trek Online is now free to play and I celebrate by… doing a mission.

Star Trek Online vblog #2: Gamepads, Klingons, and Crew

I can’t help myself but play this game before the Tuesday launch (which I will be playing as well).  In this I show the problem of gamepads in the game (hopefully this gets fixed), I do a mission and I show how crew options work out in your small opening ship.

Star Trek Online vblog #1: Free to Play Early Access Yo

I could not help myself.  I had to jump in before everyone else could.  STO sold over 1M units in under 3 months.  Having said that the price of STO went from $69.99, to $59.99 to $49.99 to $29.99 to the $9.99 we knew up until the F2p conversion.  I explain what happened and why some people are pissed.

As well I’ll do one mission and I will also show off their entire item shop.  Enjoy

Star Trek Online is Now Free to Play

Well in some news I have not been able to find anymore quests in GodsWar Online.  This browser based/Facebook MMO just doesn’t seem to have much for legs.  I gave it a good four days of trying to find a quest and there is simply no quests anywhere in the world.

In related news early access for the free to play version of Star Trek Online has begun.  This is related because I have decided to cycle GodsWar Online out of my rotation and rotate Star Trek Online in.

Star Trek Online was a game that came out with a pretty poor reception.  The space combat was not very good, the ground combat was terrible, and the random adventures were not fun.  The game survived as long as it did as a subscription because of a player development tool called the foundry.  The foundry allowed players to make their own missions and people to play them giving unlimited content.

Jupiter Broadcasting has done 109 episodes of their show STOked staying loyal to this game.

So I thought as a former subscriber I would jump in and get me some early access to see how the game has changed since I last played.  I will be starting fresh as per usual.
