with a fiery passion.


As of January 14, 2008, Perpetual Entertainment is no longer developing Star Trek Online. The license for the game and all of its assets except for the code have been transferred to an undisclosed Bay Area development studio. On January 18th, all STO developers were laid off by P2 Entertainment.

Without the code, whoever takes over Star Trek Online will be faced with a lot of work to complete the project, which means that fans may have longer to wait for a completed Star Trek Online.


In late 2007, it was announced that Perpetual Entertainment was under new management: a non-gaming company seeking to enter gaming. It was announced that Star Trek Online would have a more "casual" approach, and was considering alternative payment strategies, such as allowing players to spend money on in-game items, instead of paying subscription fees. According to an anonymous source, "a number" of employees may have left due to dissatisfaction over the game's new direction.




So much for star trek online, even if it does come out, it will be a carebeared out game where you can BUY ITEMS IN GAME WITH REAL MONEY.

Butcher it harder. :(

Godammed money grubbers.

Yeah and what I've heard is the economy was going to be real i.e real cash for items such as rare dylithuim and so on. That's really would be a bad move.

I was looking forward to seeing if for once we could have a good Star Trek game. Guess that just got killed.

Awesome, I can't wait until we have another WoW clone on the market. There's nothing I love more than an MMORPG that you can figure out how to play in five minutes.
