And it's' supposed to be free.

Nice! Here's hoping it will have enough depth to keep players interested.

Maybe this rather belongs in the Gaming forum though

You're probably right. I'm not a gamer, just a DS9er, so I thought this was the place to post it.
This may be the first time I try to play a MMO game. I've never been interested before.

there is an interesting thread over at slashdot, with one of the developers offering some insights.

I don't play MMOs or browser games, so I've no idea what this will be about or like. Nice to see DS9 get some love though.

Hoping it's well done. Text based games are often lackluster.

BTW, Star Trek: Infinite Space's publisher Gameforge has released a first trailer over at GameTrailers.com.

My interest is definitely piqued. I would like to see some footage from actually gameplay. Could be wrong but that struck me more as an epic trailer then gameplay footage.

Summer 2011 is going to be an interesting time MMO wise. I'm already playing Star Trek Online and am wondering what effect SW:TOR is going to have on the market overall.

The galaxy is at war...yawn.

Still it might be a fun distraction at a reasonable price.

Oh, MAN! Now THIS, unlike the ST:O universe, is one whose political alignments I think I can get behind!

Spoiler: Enemies become allies

As long as the Cardassians get to OPEN a can of whoop-ass on the Klingons instead of being dealt it all the time...and I could play them doing so...

The official homepage and Beta sign-up are now online.

That teaser is sexy

As if Canada isn't on the list of countries. And what's with the sending a passport thing??? lame

It's set during Season 4 of DS9, so the galaxy is at war.

Also, Free is extremely reasonable.


Nothing i've read about this game so far has put me off.

^ Haven't seen anything that confirms when the game is set. Do you have a link to the piece that talks about its setting?

that flagged up a red alert in my mind passport or driving license details? never heard any game wanting that before.

I hope I'm wrong and this will be a good game but to me it seems a bit iffy.
