Ive been listening to the released info by sparklesoft about how it works. My normal launcher just opens the game. The ARC program is designed to monitor you and your activity, they say its to catch cheaters and gold sellers. But they also mentioned they can take screenshots of u in game and can use it to access your password too. I have a fast pc, so neither arc or steam would slow me down, the point is they are going too far with things. If I wanted steam to monitor me I would have already downloaded it. As it stands, I also bought STO by disc and by accepting the end user agreement, I am within a legal contract with "Cryptic" as long as STO and the installed launcher is on "my pc" (unshared) I am supposed to have the rights to play it (with my original launcher) as long as the game exists! I never cheated or had a reason too, I infact was always happy to invest money through the purchase of a lifetime sub and c-points to keep them going as this was my first mmo and favorite to date. They also mentioned that they will be adding more things to it later on, but wont release what it is yet. I figure its because people like me have pointed out their ork mischief and players are now aware that they maybe up to no good, and watching em a bit more closer now! ..and they dont wanna slowdown the forced signups for new players.
on another note, now that I think about it, I dont look down on gold sellers anymore, I may put their annoying bots on ignore, but who wouldnt wanna play videogames for a living? That would be awesome!! I wish Cryptic paid me to play their game, I would gladly be willing to leave behind working 12 to 15 hour nights in a hot factory, to rocking the day away gaming with my cats. =^.^=
EDIT: Of coarse if I did that I would most likely get fat, so my life is still a blessing.
But Catstar, steam does all of those things too, and I don't see anyone getting mad at it.

centersol: Im not being forced to use it lol :rolleyes:
Ash: Yeah, ive seen people getting sick off of processed and doctored food sold to us since i was a kid. So I spend that extra bit of money to make sure I know whats going on my plate is healthy tastes good (not to bad of a cook myself). I plan to die of old age someday, not clogged arteries and cancer.
Looks as though, they arent listening to me, but CatStar cant be allowed to just die off...so, heres the RP atm;
While at his best efforts to stop the ARC device from being installed into every Federation officer (Datas question to Picard) CatStar is forced to take his inquiry to Star Fleet Command, little did he know that they had already been infiltrated by implanted Admirals and no longer would listen to him. CatStar lost his commission as an officer for his unauthorized investigation and became pursued, and forced to fend off fellow officers as well as aliens from the Perfect World cult. A fugitive that wouldnt undergo the procedure to become one with the overmind matrix called ARC. Cat fought for months, labeled a terrorist much like the Marquis where labeled, but to no avail. He was finaly captured and forced into excile on a planet with no technology what so ever to keep him from causing them anymore trouble. Cat now roams this midevil world knowing his survival on this new hostile plane will require all of his cunning and training. Armed now only with his trusty blade, and cloaked in the shadows.
http://teso.gamepedia.com/Nightblade ...this game has a Cat race, that better resembles CatStar then the one in SWtor...plus this batman with a sword class that fits CatStars RP.
I agree entirely. Sexualization undoes a century of human rights progress, and turns you into property again, nothing more than a toy for my own enjoyment, essentially slavery again. At the beginning of the 1900s, women were nothing more than objects for their husbands to do with as they please, and the women could not say a thing about it. If you want me to respect you as a person, then you need to respect yourself as a person. And even more important than that, it is a maturity issue. If you try sexualization in the military, you will find yourself in Court Marshal by tomorrow, and Dishonourably Discharged. So for the sake of your own career, the sake of your future, do yourself a favour and get rid of anything of a sexualized nature before you find yourself blacklisted as a "Sex Offender."
Well as long as you don't think I use it for said purpose. I could imagine you talk about those who max the bust slider out to stupid proportions. Mine is always at minimum.

Platforms change? I don't get why people are making this such a big deal.....
Because they need their "DOOOOOOM" daily fix.
Eh, if ARC gets better, it could actually be a really good thing to happen to this game.
I'm all for free goodies.
Another treat is the introduction of Caitians to Trek. =^.^=
I've learned to not think to hard about fanart.

Best M'ress art that I found on Google that wasn't p***graphic...
while tng is still my favorite series, the use of James T Cat has now made me a fan of the old series too. I like their uniforms and ship.
those are great pics you linked^
TNG and TOS will always be best Trek.

If there would have been more Caitians on board this ship, they wouldnt of had to deal with KHAAAN! later on.
Caitians where on there way, but Khan killed them. They had a painful death. MUHAHAHAHAHAHAH!!!!!!!!
Then he sent those fake Caitians to the JJ Verse to ruin that timeline as well.
also...we NEED this hairstyle on our space kitty's
