Greetings, Captains! You're listening to Episode 154 of Priority One Podcast, the premier Star Trek Online podcast! This episode was recorded live on TrekRadio.net on Thursday, December 19th, 2013 and published for download on Monday, December 23rd at PriorityOnePodcast.com!
You'd better not pout, and you'd better not cry, but this is the last episode of Priority One Podcast for 2013! Joining us for this festive and reflective show are James, Elijah and Tony who have a show that's guaranteed to make your heart grow three sizes bigger. In this week's show, we talk more Trexels as we Trek Out the game with Lead Designer Craig Bolin! In STO News, we get all nostalgic as Cryptic takes us on a year in review and hints at what?s coming in 2014 -- but that's just the tip of this festive iceberg as there is an avalanche more news and presents coming our way! The Romulan Survivor Duty Officer pack is getting an upgrade, as is the entire roster itself including an awesome new ship that has not only a fantastic new console but a torpedo launcher that's sure to be a winner; Voth set bonuses that will give the Romulans a run for their money; new small craft, a sale on Master Keys and the latest patch notes to hit Holodeck before we dive headlong into a discussion on the changing state of MMOs, and what this means for the players of STO! Then, in this week?s Community Spotlight, our resident foundry guru ChivarlryBean returns with a Foundry Review of ?A Time To Search?, and of course as always, we?ll open hailing frequencies and see what?s incoming from YOU, our listeners.

As far as a change that almost made me quit I'd have to say that was back when they took the original Borg stf mission an broke them into what they are now. As a hole these missions had a good story that I feel could and should have been preserved. Really the only reason I continued playing is that I'm a star trek fan. Not saying they are bad now but it would have been nice if they'd kept the option to play through the story, like it was intended.

Fave new feature? The Voth style reputation. I never had an issue playing missions to get marks, but having to run to a vendor for hypos and shield doodles was a drag. (Remember, I blow TRIBBLE up, I never grind).
What update nearly ruined my STO experience? The Voth ground battlezone. I was honestly expecting an area that would take days to take over, not a half hour. I was disappointed. However, once the sadness and woe wore off, I started to enjoy getting all the dilithiums in not long at all! Plus dinosaurs, hello!
Side note: If ARC is so terrible, then why is it bringing in Neverwinter players into STO? A co-worker mentioned we was playing Neverwinter, and was considering STO, and I was like, hey, I play STO! Come join the fun! Now he's in STO. In the least, it isn't all bad.
