Thinking of coming back...buddy code?

First off, I'm one of those crying preorder cancellers from after being in open beta/head start.

Now I know that doesn't exactly make me popular around here...

BUT!!!

After seeing all of the updates and effort Cryptic has gone through to improve the game(one of the things I was worried about was STO not getting continuing support) I think I'm ready to give it another try.

I get paid next week and I'm really thinking of buying the game, but I'd feel alot more confident if I could try it for a few days again first, so......that's where the community comes in!

Would any of you guys mind tossing a buddy code my way? I'm not sure if you are allowed to ask for them here. I would imagine when it first came out there was a ton of threads of people asking(I was already gone by then so I dunno) but....yeah.....

I'm not sure but do you get a free month if the buddy subs or something like that like some other MMO buddy systems? lol. If so that's a bonus for you at least.....

Thanks in advance to anyone who at least takes the time to read the thread. :D

If nothing else, at least I'm honest.:p

    Don't come back now. Nothing really new to talk about. Come back when the next patch...what are they calling them...seasons..episodes...whatever....wait for #2 patch thingy to come out. It's supposed to actually have a lot of enhancements and adding more stuff to do.

    Yeah I read that they are going to remove the blue shield bar things around our ships, or at least make it toggleable(damn awesome btw) but I dunno when that's happening. Next patch maybe...

    But I don't really have any other MMOs to play and haven't since before even Aion came out(tried that one too back then, sucked bad) so right now it's pretty much just BC2 lol.

    I'm a huge trek fan which attracted me to this game from the beginning years ago, so I'd really like to be able to get into the game and join a fleet and do these new task force things. Just need to make sure before I drop $60 on it is all.

    new task force things are at the end of the game once you reach Rear Admiral. So if you're just now starting you'll be a ways away from that.

    Good news is, you skipped a lot of the bad bugs!

    I got up to like level 18 or 19 during head start(yeah I took a week off for STO launch lol...) before the game launched so...still a ways behind but not THAT far behind. Plus I planned to check those out in retail anyways if I decided to pick it up.

    And yeah...that was the point lol. To not waste my free month with abunch of downtimes etc.

    BTW, no one will probably say anything about the preorder cancel thing as long as you put on a happy face and pretend to be anti-troll.

    they seem to like that.

    I would seriously wait another 6 months and see if they add any decent content. No new Exploration Type Missions. No new storyline missions. No diplomacy or anything. 90% fluff. Couple of new fleet actions but it's so dead that I have tried them 7 times and been the only there.
    Played Break the Planet on my own last night after an hour so bored I logged out in disgust.
    Cancelled and will try again in Sept.

    Almost nothing has changed, wait until june/july before considering coming back. That's when Season 2 is "supposed" to be released.
