I've been playing everyday since s6 dropped. It's fucking amazing. The new missions are faster and crazier than anything else in the game. The promise of better ships and gear has my fleet and I working non stop to hoard the materials we need for the starbase projects. It's something to get excited about, which is what STO has been needing. And for the first time since I started playing, I've actually had it in my mind to start recommending it to friends. It's not for trekkies and masochists anymore. STO is finally a legitimate MMO with everything necessary for you to become obsessive and neglect your life.
I enjoyed it till I maxed my level and got tired of the repetitive missions. The new stuff maybe be great, but I'm only in like the third season and I don't feel like slogging through boring stuff to get to the good new stuff :/
Still, it was a lot of fun for 120+ hours and the character and ship customization, and space combat were great.

In my book STO's been a legit MMO since it went Free-to-Play (yeah, I went there!).
Speaking of which, how do you gain the Starbase XP needed to work for upgrades? Some folks the guild I've been running with were asking and couldn't figure it out.

This actually looks fun fo an mmo. I mean I'll probably never play it but it looks better than most of them ive seen.
I'd agree with you there Josh.
Like I say every time, if anybody wants to start a Destructoid Fleet they should add me in the game. Fuck joining any existing fleet, they're generally full of humourless turds (like any MMO).

I have refused to touch this one since it was paid, ran like shit on my system, regularly froze badly enough to need a hard reset, and then trying to fix it all I found was one asshole trying to blame everyone's problems on everyone's rig instead of the game he loved so much, and an official thread about overheating graphic cards.
I would still avoid this game for it's history if I were you... unless you can tell me Cryptic is better then Atari at running/maintaining/debugging/addressing tech issues of their customers.

Cryptic don't even run it anymore. But if your issues were ages ago you'd be a whiney bitch not to try it again now it is free.

I haven't played since the beta, maybe I'll re-up to get in on this starbase building from the beginning.
The Original Sexing.
Also, glad to hear starbases are finally live. I'm caught up in The Secret World at the moment, but I'll probably return to check out starbases later.

@Tarvu: You know the site still has Cryptic's name on it right? And that the company history includes being bought first by Atari and then by Perfect Worlds, right?
In short, same guys who were melting graphic cards and closing stickied tech support threads on it when they didnt reply and a fight broke out between a fanboi and people with real problems playing.
And I dont care how long ago it was... games that risked breaking your PC leave a very fowl taste in your mouth. Im not saying don't play it... Im saying buyer beware... even at free.
