I bought Star Trek Onilne before release, I also got a life time sub with my account. There are 2 questions that I have

1) If I went bought the game again through steam, can I download in on that platform and then use my old account details in there, I just want it on steam for convenience.

2) On my account I used to be able to play a (Borg/Human) character and also I have a Borg bridge officer, If I deleted this character. Would I still be able to make a new Borg/Human character, and also would I be able to claim my Borg Bridge officer again? I want to start again you see.

Thanks :eek:

    i believe you can. we all use the same game client and any log in details will work on any client. so if you have it installed on steam then you should be able to log in with it.

    if you use your current account then yes you can keep making multiple borg characters and claim borg bridge officers on more than one character (assuming you got the borg bo from a pre order bonus that is linked to your account and not through an in game task force mission).

    You might be able to register your previous copy of the game to Steam, so you wouldn't need to purchase another copy. I've never had to go through this process myself, but I saw that a while back you could register games that were available through Steam if you provided the serial number. Afraid I don't know more than that though.

    2) You can make as many Borg-Captains as you have Char slots. If you delete one you are still able to create a new Borg. Same with the Borg-BO with the exception that they are limited one per character. So if you have 5 characters everyone of them can have the Borg-BO but none will be able to have two Borg-BOs. Also if you disband the Borg-BO you can always get a new one in the C-Store for free (as long as you currently don't have one). (All of this is only true for the Borg-BO which you get when you bought the game at Amazon or similar stores not for the Borg-BO you can get after completing one of the STFs)

    How do I 're claim' my BBO? sorry I know that is something I should know, I just don't. And yes i got it from ordering from pre-ordering from Amazon, not a mission. - I guess a better way of saying it would be how do I see what my 'In game items' are so i can reclaim them.

    Thanks

    claim it through the c-store like you claimed the first one. (assuming you claimed the first one)

    go to the special unlocks tab and it should be waiting there to claim again on what ever character you make.
