To take Star Trek, a science fiction television and movie franchise based around drama and morality, and to adapt it into a massively multiplayer game can't have been an easy task for Cryptic Studios. But despite the undeniably huge amount of thought and effort that's gone into it, Star Trek Online doesn't quite deliver on the epic scale of the franchise's "Final Frontier."
STO isn't a bad game but with the likes of EVE Online and Mass Effect 2 providing more immersive final frontiers, players may not see themselves going boldly back to it in the months after launch.
The long-running, free-to-play Star Trek Online has expanded once more - and this time it's the new Both Worlds season that comes to Xbox and PlayStation.
Cryptic Studios appears to be the latest Embracer-owned company to be impacted by layoffs.
Fans are getting their Janeway fix with the latest update. Perfect World Entertainment Inc., a leading publisher of online games, and Cryptic Studios announced Captain Janeway from Star Trek: Voyager will make her Star Trek Online debut in Shadow’s Advance.
Was never really a big Voyager fan I did watch it they reused a lot of the same story arcs time travel, slip stream, the borg, thrown closer to home. Best aliens I like that were introduced in the series were the Hirogen would love to see the Klingons take them on in a war.
IMO a legit review of an MMORPG gives it at least 30 days of post-launch playtime, since so much changes (bug fixes, patches, etc.) in the first while.
