When Perpetual Entertainment (or P2 as they were apparently called at the time) went under, it was reported that their highly sought-afttr IP Star Trek Online had been picked up by another "bay area developer". you can check out the timer at the Cryptic site here. |

I mean what are the chances that cryptic "Just happens" to use old Star Trek online concept art for a countdown on their page?
Although that would be funny -Jive |

It would be great if this were true. However, I notice that this countdown is featured prominently on the Champions Online Official Site. Anyone think that it might just relate to that MMO and not a speculative Star Trek venture? |

Originally posted by ishiaki I thought about that, but it wouldn't be unusual for a company to do a small amount of hype on their current site for something in production. |

Go ahead and join the discussion,

I still dont see Star Trek being MMO friendly. The format and expected experiance just doesnt lend itself to solo/group gaming very easily. What I am waiting to know is how starship operations work in a group MMO setting. I figure its one ship - one owner type play. Away Teams will be fine, but what of the space experiance? I just hope it favors its ready made audiance, the Star Trek fan, and not try to break records in subs to players that dont care about its lore. Stargate Worlds, however, has a show formula that begs to be a MMO. You can solo or group to run adventures instanced in the gate. |
