Subscription?

I was wondering why no subscription service for consoles???
I played on the PC, but have been playing on my console nowadays and was excited that STO was arriving for consoles, but why no subscription? I would rather pay a bit each month on subscription and get some of those benefits you get... but now you have to fork out a lot of dough for stuff.

anyway. I like it though, just was wondering what the catch is? whats the cost going to be for expansions etc?

    Story content has always been free, there is no catch.

    They hope you will decide to buy ship(s), costumes, etc. and possibly open lock boxes.

    The odds of getting a lock box ship are 1 in 200 or 250, so on PC at least it is much better NOT to open boxes to get one of those ships. Buy the credit cap unlock (or lifetime sub), sell keys on the exchange, buy the ship for energy credits. The console economy might not be set up for that yet.
