So who is gonna try Star Trek Online? The servers open up on January 31st (29th if you preorder plus you get in the beta 12th-26th of Jan.)
It sounds alot like Eve Online but alot more action oriented rather than the player run economy style that Eve has. Space combat in it sounds like its gonna be easy to learn hard to master, alot more than just pressing 1,2,3,4,5,etc. Have to maneuver your ship to get in a better firing position or to keep your enemy from hitting the side of your ship which has lost shields. You can reroute power from different systems in order to increase weapon effectiveness, power shields, boost of speed etc. Ground combat sounds like it plays alot like a 3rd person shooter. Looks to be good, might just preorder the Collectors Edition. Would be a first for me for mmos.

Now all I have to do is decide if I want the exclusive trademark ship of the Star Trek series (gamestop) or the exclusive Borg officer (Amazon)...hmm.
Just found out that getting it from Best Buy nets you 2 exclusive pet, one for Klingons and one for the Federation. So many choices...maybe I should just spend $180 for 1 collectors edition and 2 standard, one for each preorder bonus...=\
