    ^ Possibly, but you wouldn't get that kind of ship at first.

    This is my ship the USS Axiom.
    It's not much, but I tend to kick ass with it. :D

    In this shot, someone's about to get a nice surprise! :devil:

    So, is this something I can buy yet? Or is it still in Beta?

    Those seeking exploits in the Star Trek Online game should visit the EVE Online forum discussion dedicated to Star Trek Online. I gather a number of exploits have already been discovered.

    Most MMO game launches are very disorganized. Hell, world of warcraft has been around for 5 years, and is considered the thing to beat, and their patch days are still hell.

    To Albert: Here are two I was immediately able to find.

    I take no responsibility as to the veracity of the claims:

    "a funny bug that you can stack evasive maneuvers with full impulse while using Ramming speed for insane crashing suicidal damage. Like 1.8 mil damage because of how ramming speed calculates damage based on speed. (Yes you can ram someone to do damage in STO. Exploding ships also do lots of damage.)"

    And another example:

    "Another exploit, outside of combat, so say you just killed an enemy, 10 seconds or whatever after their death you are flagged out of combat. Fire up things like your engy ability, shields etc. anything to get you back in top shape then reassign your crew mate and back again and you have magially cleared the ability cooldown timer. You'll have to wait an extra 8 seconds or so but beats 45 seconds."

    Remember, this is the first week. You're going to see a shitload of patches by the end of the month. If you've ever played WoW, 1-3 GB patches are not uncommon, and they've been out since 2004.

    FFXI frequently has patches that take 4 hours to download and install. They warn you a week in advance, though, so you know it's coming and you can patch overnight. Doesn't change the fact that it's 4 hours. XD

    I modified the ship a bit. I love the Constitution design, but wanted to update it a bit.
    To me this feels right:

    Here are some printable maps

    http://forums.startrekonline.com/showthread.php?t=88819

    Im not sure I quite understand the layout of the universe yet, there seem to be a lot of things 'off the map' as it were.
    Like the link to 'delta volanis cluster', what is that and why doesnt the map map the cluster?

    It's supposed to be relatively unexplored. Several locations are like that.

    Has anyone got into buying and selling stuff for energy to real players through the exchange?
