The next Star Trek MMORPG: Another Epic Fail?

Monthly fee.  Just not set yet.

Pretty sure it will be standard $14.99 per month
with discounts if you buy in 6 months blocks etc...

Oh okay.  Thanks guys.

You can buy time cards on Amazon for $30.  $15 per month is all but announced.

Doesn't sound like the Klingons are developed very well...

[Barrister]

And MBM - why two Eve accounts?

The Klingons are designed as a PvP faction.  They have a few PvE scenarios, but mostly it's intended you'll PvP for most of your experience.

For good or bad, they were never intended as a faction equal to the Federation.

Heh - my launcher is now patching.

Only a 2.5 GB patch.

[Barrister]

But that's a good thing since it's my fileplanet CB launcher, and there was always a small risk the game would tell me to start from scratch.

And MBM - why two Eve accounts?

I have two eve accounts, and so does CDM.  One for pvp, one for making money and mining... 

[MadBurgerMaker]

And MBM - why two Eve accounts?

One (the main) for fun, scouting, and hauling, the other for not fun (mining), jihading or stealth bombing, and sitting in a capital ship 24/7 ready to jump wherever the hell.  Three players per account in Eve, and you can only train skills on one per acct.

Eve kinda sucks like that.

Yeah.  Berkut has at least a couple, and vM has a whole fleet of alts.

[Barrister]

Damn, I am reminded yet again that Eve = serious business.

[Alcibiades]

Yeah, no way I'm paying for a third.  I second guess two accounts every once in a while!

Same.  It's too bad really.  I was kinda looking forward to nerding it up in a Star Trek game.  Oh well.  BACK TO THE SPREADSHEETS

Hunt around, there's a fair chance you can at least get an open beta account.  Then see if you like it.

Just train your miner for a dread.  You don't need a dedicated Dred pilot.

I'll probably just end up waiting until it's released and firing up whatever they have for a trial account and checking it out then.   

The thing is, I actually find Eve to be pretty fun (although I take regular breaks from it), so I'm not going to cancel/pause any accounts in favor of this one unless it's just exceptional.  Better to wait for the launch bugs to be ironed out, etc, before giving it it's shot.

I'll definitely try it in a little while though.

I do if the dread pilot is going to be in Goonfleet (he is).  I don't like having to sneak around avoiding wardecs and shit in my miner.  The damn jihadis and whatever copycats are around are bad enough. 

I'll probably end up with a pair of dread pilots, since the main is only a couple of skills away from hopping into a dread as it is and I'm sure I'll finally cave and train them at some point.
