So instead of just playing one of those games with only one person, we all just reconvene on FFXI because it's the only online game we have in common.

Do you like Star Trek, Karb? D:

I Fking Love Star Trek. But haven't played the game yet. I followed the Beta, But never much got into it. I'll probably have to look into a bit more, See how it is.

I have been looking at star wars. Didn't even know there was a star trek MMO (I guess there probably is one for damn near every Sci-Fi franchise these days).

How is star trek?

It went f2p recently, which is one of the reasons I picked it up (broke as shittt). I'm a huge trekkie, so I enjoy the crap out of it. If you do check it out, hit me with a PM on BG and I can flist you. There's only one server (though there are multiple instances of each zone), so it's pretty easy to team up with people. There's a level sync option too, which is pretty handy especially since the EXP curve is fairly easy. I started a week and a half ago and I'm already level 36/50. Early on, you can get like 1 level per mission you complete.

I do recommend it, though. Tearing things up with my armed-to-the-teeth Defiant-class is so, so satisfying. There's a wealth of story-based missions out, a full calendar of special events (Every hour or 2-hour block of every day is something, be it a special PvE event or a bonus to all crafting, etc), and the game fully supports Player-made missions and gives you daily rewards for doing them and giving them reviews (can just be 1-5 star reviews, don't need to write if you don't want) so there's a pretty large heap of content and Treky story goodness to wade through.

Edit: Forgot to mention, but there's also faction-based PvP if you're into that. After you hit level 25 in the Federation, you can make a Klingon character. They get different missions (sharing a few, but with different objectives/plot/etc), different ships, and all that jazz.

You can go give it a shot. It is free to play so it gives you the chance to try it out.

Star Trek sounds interesting!

I don't even like Star Trek, but it sounds more fun than FFXI right now lol

I'm Already downloading it :D!

I'm waiting for Tera personally but that star trek MMO does sound pretty cool.

I really wish I had fraps right about now. Nothing is quite so satisfying as flying into a PvE instance, telling my Tactical officer to ready a full spread of photon torpedos, and watching 6 Gorn frigates simultaneously kerplode. I love being a DD.

My games almost done downloading... Going to have to look up what the game is all about though....
