I'M GONNA GO FLY AROUND SPACE AND TROLL THE **** OUT OF SOME ALIENS

I haven't played since the open beta back in 2010, but I recall it being worth playing, even moreso that it doesn't cost anything now.

Seems like someone got shafted, but I don't think it's the free players.

Yeah it really seems like no one in their right mind would pay the subscription fee on this, considering you get pretty much nothing that you don't get for free.

Silver players only get to store 10 million EC? Bah.

It's been free since January for returning players. Pretty good, definitely a lot better than it was when it first came out. My character is Captain 36 or so.

It's still January, you know.

Also it doesn't work for beta accounts, but I only gotta wait another hour... hopefully.

Ha, this is funny, just this past weekend, I was thinking, "Surely Star Trek Online is f2p now, I'll have to check it out."

What a coinky-pink.
