STO....

The new expansion for Star Trek Online has had a few details fleshed out.


The Cardassians will be a playable race but under either the Federation or Klingons. I hate that they are not their going to be their own or another separate faction. Federation I can kind of understand, but being on the side of the Klingons makes no sense to me at all; But maybe my DS9 history needs refreshing....


The new level cap, 65, an extra 5 levels. From other details I read elsewhere the majority of the new content should just be enough to level up to 65. Which will be nice. All the stats aside I do like the last paragraph of the dev blog:

"The More Things Change…

Levels themselves are only a part of the picture in Star Trek Online, with other important aspects of your character’s overall progress represented by systems like Specializations, Reputations, Item Upgrades, Starship Mastery, and more. As these have continued to grow over the past several years, levels themselves have come to mean less and less.

This Level Cap increase is not an attempt to change that perception, or to upset expectations as to what a level means in this game. Instead, we’re hoping to use this as an opportunity to show other potential players, as well as Star Trek fans everywhere, that this game – this rich, robust, story-driven experience – is still growing, still changing, still expanding, and still waiting for them to enjoy."
