Cryptic continues making new efforts to reach out to fans, but Ask Cryptic is a feature that does this and has been around for quite a while. This week brings the 20th installment, addressing player concerns and questions regarding skills in Star Trek Online. Read the rest of this entry
Crypic will be looking into those useless ship skills in all the ship tiers to make them actually useful at max level, they also plan to increase the level cap with new content as well as add the ability to respec, and hinted towards adding more exotic weapons for end game players.
As we all know at the moment you can only max one and a half admiral skill out of the dozen or so options they give us which doesnt seems anywhere close to enough. Crypic has announced an increase in lvls coming “some time this year” and claims the low skill point cap was intended to give players a learning curve.
Perhaps with these new skill points we can finally max out those skills for the exotic weapons and use them to their full potential. we will also beable to respec our existing chars incase these new weapons we get are not the ones we speced for.

There are over 130 tanks and mobile artillery in this new mmo World of Tanks. The fighting from the tanks point of view looks like it will be similar to the fighting style of the battlefield games but it seems the artillery has a top view map of the entire battle on it and it is illuminated by shooting targets which sounds pretty fun to me personally
From what it looks like depending on where the tank gets hit is determines what happens to it for example hitting the tank in tracks you will make it motionless for some time. By hitting the enemy in the ammunition stowage area you may destroy it at one shot – just like in a real life battle. Aiming and hitting the “proper” most vulnerable tank’s parts is the best way to destroy it.
This past Sunday, we invited fans out to London to make a run at the Guinness World Record for the largest-even gathering of Star Trek fans dressed in character.

Star Trek World Record Achieved
The main problem i see with Star Trek Online right now is that there is almost nothing todo. but maybe my problem is just because i only play my Klingon and they have not added any content for them at all. At 1st it was pretty fun flying around the same 5 maps pewpewing people with plasma cannons and such but after hitting max level and the only thing i can do that isn’t bugged is fly around those same 5 maps all day long it got boring rather quickly.
on the plus side Cryptic knows there is nothing todo in game and said they are going to Add Things. but they also said adding this stuff will take a few months… im sorry but i just cant see my self logging on every day to join a pvp match that is me vs 7 Federation players and being able todo nothing but that. a few of the things they plan to add do sound quite intriguing though such as the “State of Q” quest i loved that char in the shows so i wonder what kinda hoops he is going to have you jumping threw in game (assuming i can even do that quest as a klingon)
I really hope this game gets better though as an air combat lover for the past 10 years i can say this space combat system definatly has potential, they just need to fine polish everything and adding something like joystick support to a game thats mostly about flying your ship around should be a given! iv tried finding help on getting a joystick to work and everything i have found requires some sketchy 3rd party softwear or paying 10bucks fo xpadder … i mean seriously that is kinda like buying a new car then once you sit down the guy tells you “oooh hah you expected seat belt support? well that guy across the street can sell you a set for a few extra bucks” sure it gets the job finished but thats a pretty pathetic way of doing it
