Star Trek Online Beta: Set Phasers to Fun - Part 02

I love this mini Star Trek Endurance Run.

Did they ever mention what their account name is? I.E. Frigth@...?

how come i dont like this feature....i shouuld.....maybe because of my uninterest for star trek, their all talking nonesense to me :(

I hate watchin stuff like this when I know how to do the things they can't figure out how to, lol.  Z to switch weapons, Q or E to do side rolls, ya missed two quests from the admiral, etc. etc., lol.

This makes me want to start watching re-runs of Star Trek on TV.

The space combat seems to be the most interesting part of STO.
 
Was there a reference to Event Horizon in this SPtF episode? Was it Dave who made it?

hey why doesn't the ginatbomb crew make a giant star trek guild (or whatever the fuck it's called in this game)?

I haven't finished watching yet, so you may figure this out, but: 
 
y'all can't fire torpedoes outside of their cone of fire.  I think you have to be facing them...? 
 
EDIT: Maybe you figured it out?

I'm in the Beta just been playing for a day got afew lvls up. Two things i'm a ex WoW addict where no other MMO i've tried has come close to that and i gotta say despite what this looks like it's actually quite good i'm really enjoying playing it the space and ground stuff is alot of fun. If you like MMO's try and grab a Key give it a whirl you might be suprised.

" The space combat seems to be the most interesting part of STO.   Was there a reference to Event Horizon in this SPtF episode? Was it Dave who made it? "

Thanks to these videos I'm actually a bit more concerned about this game. It looks far too buggy to be coming out in such a short amount of time.  Gameplay wise I like the look of space combat (a bit annoyed watching the guys play it but that's okay) but the ground stuff still seems totally goofy and "City of Heroes in Space."  :\ 
 

" I love you guys, but watching you guys close out of doing the ship crap because "you couldn't afford it" was the most god damn frustrating thing ever.  All that cosmetic crap didn't cost me anything. ;\ "

" how come i dont like this feature....i shouuld.....maybe because of my uninterest for star trek, their all talking nonesense to me :( "

once the final game comes out they need to keep playing this!

Aw Jeff, that was awesome.
 "We need more buttons! Stop screwing around and make me more buttons!"
 
This Star Trek run is pretty awesome too. I'd never play the game, but I'm happy to watch Brad, Vinny, and Dave rock around the universe.

i had no interest of playing this...
but this quick look made me think about it lol

is this like an endurance run type thing or just a multi-part quick look. Basically is this suposed to be like 20 parts or just 3

Can I get a Beta key please? I just got an iBUYPOWER 937i and want to try it out with something new!

Someone may have mentioned this already but at 26:44 you can see a player as a ship slowly move into frame from the bottom of the screen.

Man, if I was playing, I would go IMMEDIATELY to Deep Space 9.

I want that stand by part NOW
Haha i love how you guys react to finding out how to run and how to go fast in the ship

" This looks fucking terrible. Why cant anyone make a decent MMORPG other than Blizzard? "

first

Im really surprised at how good this game looks.  I really didnt think I would want to plya a Star trek MMO, but looks fun.

I just discovered tonight that STO has a facepalm emote that is animated. Best. MMO. Ever.

No one seems to have mentioned it yet:
You can use the arrow keys to distribute energy to the shield.

" @gike987:Are you far into the game btw? I am considering picking it up if the class and ship can be as heavily modified as it looks like it can. Also, is there anything beyond what we have seen so far that makes more interesting? and how deep does the quests go? (haven't read up on the game info yet, sorry ;p but you seem to have played it some by now :)) "

Ah man, where's part 3? It was up a few minutes ago but now I can't find it.

lol, at about 27 min when Brad is choosing his skills, a ship just floats by in the bottom of the screen.

Will this game have monthly fees?

endurance run?

Hahaha that space combat looks so flimsy. Funny though!!

I love Giantbomb...no other gaming website in history even compares.

 
Looks like EVE, but you can get out of your ship.  Thats kinda awesome.  But can't be good if I can know nothing about it and fall ass backwards into a handful of beta keys. 

Man, I really want to try this game out. But alas, my computer sucks.

sweet

This actually looks like it could stand a chance against Star Wars The Old Republic.
 
It definitely has much better graphics and is closer to it's source material.

There's something weird going on with the audio.  I can barely hear anything

why didn't anyone tell there was new endurance run
