The day 200,000 Accounts suddenly cried out in horror and were suddenly canceled.

Well it looks as if Star Trek Online is not dead. If you go to www.startrekonline.com/

 It now says coming soon, I think we may be seeing a announcement soon from the new developers of which no one knows who they are.

Never try to teach a pig to sing,it wastes your time and annoys the pig.

Shortly after the old developers folded the site didn't have  "Coming soon" on it. It now does. We all know that STO was handed to another development company but it has been kept a well guarded secret. My curiosity is now peaked and I am gonna have to go check that site each day to see if anything new pops up.

 

I just hope the new developer listens to US and gives US the game that we want.

Perpetual screwed the pooch on this one so I hope the new developers learned from Perpetuals shortcomings.

I hope mmorpg.com puts Star Trek section back up  so we can get news about it.

I too was glad that PE failed. I didnt like the vision they had in mind for Star Trek. Hopefully the next devs to take charge have the vision, talent, and financial backing to give Trek the attention it deserves.

Forum is still there, just not on the front page. Go to the top and select "Pick a less active forum"

I am me, yup... no debating that.

I'd love a Star Trek game that was a Sci-Fi game as opposed to a Fantasy Genre MMO with Star Trek Skins.  No healing class, no tanking (dear God no tanking) and real unpredictiable elements that require multiple adaptive strategies to overcome.

Imho, any Star Trek MMO that has levels, in the traditional sense, especially ones that affect hit points or whatever, is a failure at Star Trek, even if its a successful game.  Any Star Trek MMO in which Captains are the only way to play, or are inherently better at combat, medicine, engineering, science or tactical... well, that's a failure at Trek too.

I could have missed something, but when you go to Cryptic's home page there is a ticker counting down at at something happening in 46 days.. Look at the Pic there under games on the right side under the Champions online  link. I could be wrong but looks ALOT like some of the earlier pics of STO and Cryptic is rumored to have picked up the IP. Guess we will see in about 46 days
