sounds cool however i don't like this bit

What happens if I die?
If the ship's sick-bay is intact, you will revive there after which you can either rejoin the battle or transport back to your away team. If the sick-bay has been captured or destroyed by an enemy you will revive once it has been recaptured or repaired.

what happens if theres two huge clans fighting? you could be 30 min and not able to respawn etc.

yeah the concept is great but i am wondering if it can be worked out. There are loads of planets and as a civiolian player you should be able to explore teh whole planet and also you can't play as klingons or other empire race.

Also i expect alot of captains as everyone wants to fly a big gunned ship

Oh boy, this has Galaxies written all over it. Noble idea screwed over by too many limitations and bad decision making on the developers part. "Let's make it crap the first time out and then make a ton of expansions that cost more money to "Improve" it, only those expansions will need expansions to make them worth something."

Well i just git finished, reading the revised faq on star trek.com and i cant wait. They will probably not release it until 2007-8 because of the beta in 06 will have a huge amount of buges if i know anything about mmo's. They probably will atleast have the klingons as a playable race because in the whole of the fan base the klingons are mimicked more at conventions and ST:The Experince in Las Vegas, Nevada. And they wont release expansions packs or if they do they will release 1 huge one. Most updates will be downloaded like in WOW. So hang in there. Dont grap your torches and pitchforks right now wait a while, until the online manual comes out; then get dissapointed and start a massive mob and storm the gates.

they will have the klingons and romulans in there own expansion pack so they can milk it, ie STO: Family Honour (klingon) & STO: Imperail Senate etc
