Im new to the STO and I got good impressions in the first 5 hrs of game. But the only thing that I really don´t like is the non synthesizer voice npc´s. That gives a felling for me of non emotional, static game, I dunno. There´s some development in this area of game?

In the future, last I heard, the plan is for characters to occasionally "bark" like the NPCs do in WoW when you click on them and save full voiceover for cutscenes.
Is it wrong that I'm a picturing a Klingon BOff saying "woof woof" lol
the first voice you hear in the game is not "synthesized" its the guy who plays spock in the new Star trek movie. he's playing an EMH In that set of voice overs. which is not like the good ol' doctor from Voy, he IS non-emotional static in tone.... now if your referring to other voi9ces.... blame that on the voice acting.
Your right. It kinda ruins the immersion of the game...
They're working the tutorial in as a high level mission. Personally, although it risks lacking the clarity, I'd like the new tutorial to use more of a McCoy or Tucker type voice or maybe a Riker. Someone with some wit and a more developed sense of humor.
I think it winds up feeling TOO emotionless with Quinto playing not just a Vulcan but a holographic Vulcan -- and he was totally unfamiliar with Picardo's EMH when he did it, based on interviews.
I just don't think Zachary Quinto is capable of delivering lines like that, as he specializes in emotionless characters, such as Syler(from heroes, who was a sociopath, the human equivalent of a Vulcan gone wrong), and Spock.
I spent ages thinking it was my audio settings but from what I've read it seems like NPCs just aren't being voiced after the initial few missions.
Can anyone help answer?
I'm assuming you're talking about the federation missions. Unfortunately yeah, STO's missions when originally created did not have any voice overs. In the four years since launch a number of missions including the Tutorial, Diplomatic Orders, Stranded in Space and The Doomsday machine have been reworked to include voices overs and other improvements. In addition to newer missions.
As for the missions that have not been reworked they are still without voice over. So unfortunately you are going to have to continue to read until you get to the newer stuff.
Also, Please note the date of the posts in this thread. They go back to September 2011. Going back to a really old inactive thread like this is generally considered bad forum etiquette. It's better just to create a new thread rather than dredging up the half rotten corpses of forum posts from the past.
Hey hey now!
BAD ZOMBIE BAD GO BACK TO THE GROUND!
Seriously folks, if a thread hasn't been responded to in 30 days please don't bring it back up
