Bottom of the first article, a audio interview with Stahl, where he does go into the Free to Play slip quote from the other interview.
The F2P thing starts around 13:30 on part 2
lol good question...
Interviewer: what grade do you give the game?
Stahl: "We had a solid launch, a very relatively trouble free launch..." "We have some climbing to do to get up to where we expect the game to be"
Are you where you expected to be at 6 months in subs?
Stahl: "Uh, yeah." "We hit our expectations and hit the numbers we were looking for, and even the dropoff afterwards has been very predictable so we dont feel like we're in any trouble"
--the CStore antics make me think otherwise---
Apparently they have a vision up to 3 years of what theyre going to do, regardless of how it looks to some.
Interviewer: Why are the perks moving into the CStore so fast
"The Galaxy DN is an anomaly in our CStore strategy"
---well so much for HIS credability---
[after much debate and much compaining on the forums] "We decided to put it in the CStore at a price that would make it more exclusive"
Go listen to the interview, an post what you think.

Otherwise I thought he handled it well. Though he really needs to do something like a 3 point or 5 point plan outlining how he will correct problems. For instance on Klingons would be we are goign to do A then B then C. Only then will we proceed with D and E for the Federation.
Alo, if Dan is reading - Could you go more into the exclusivity aspect of the C-Store. you never really seemed ot nail that one down and came off as waffling.

PS: Kudos for answering the tougher questions. Now if you could get Ask Cryptic to do the same....
Heh I wonder what the reason was?
The OP was using a different screen name previously banned, so it is not surprising that they finally caught up to him.
op spins as much ...... as did jacob_flowers
