If you ever feel like stirring the pot over in the Star Trek Online community, just point out that one of the game’s playable factions is getting preferential treatment over the others. This has been a sore spot among players, including Romulans who haven’t seen any new ships released for their side for over a year now.
That situation has changed, thanks to the news that there is an “Allied Cooperative Starship Development Board” working to create a batch of new ships for the game. The new ships will include offerings for the Federation, Romulan, Klingon, and Jem’Hadar factions, thanks to cooperative efforts between all sides (and a vested interest by Cryptic to make everyone happy).
Players are also being tempted to buy a real Tribble toy in order to gain a special Black Alert Tribble pet in the game. This special Tribble, when petted, will give players a boost to their run speed and maximum health. Also, it serves as great Klingon repellent.
