Anytime a new online game is developed there is always a question of how well it will fit the expectations of the fans. Everyone has his or her own idea of how the game will look. One hurdle for the developers is that the fan base is so wide.

The original Star Trek with Scotty and Dr. McCoy started over forty years ago. Since then we have had several different series and many movies to widen he fan base. Fan boys want the most intensive graphics and gaming that can be achieved. No one wants to be disappointed especially after
the long wait they have endured for Star Trek Games.

There are a few things that have not been decided yet but as they continue to create the game these things will be decided and posted  on the official website. One of the things that have not been decided
yet is the pricing structure. Cryptic has not decided if they  are going to have the monthly fee that is the norm for most  online rpgs. They have also not finalized the system requirements.

The would like this game to be played on the PC but they also have  to consider the game graphics and how well it runs on certain systems.  One of the hopes is that PC and console players will be able to  play on the same servers. They don’t foresee any problem with this since the solution is already there.

Starting with in the next month or so Cryptic is going to  continually update their website to bring fans up to date (ie. Star Trek Online Ships).  The site will have a year-by-year timeline. The calendar will provide fans with  updates on what has been going on since the nemesis. It will give them  an idea of what has been going on for the past 3 decades when the  game comes out. This way there will be no questions as to what is
going on when the rpg starts.

The Star Trek RPG should not let down even the most  particular trekkies. With the updates and the website they should be ready to jump in and play when the game is released.
