    If this an April Fool's joke, then it is very bad. Those were the days that the grind was never heard of, and the game was the most fun. It was all about the content and gameplay.

    Now, if you're serious, then YAY by all means. If not, then bad joke.

    This is indeed not a joke. It's really happening!

    Hahaha, nice! I actually wish this was going onto Redshirt. I'd love to explore it all again. I have so many screenshots of things which no longer exist in game. Though I must admit, I don't miss putting skill points into specific ship types/energy weapon types. :D

    Been to three different gaming sites, STO, TOR and a couple of Blizz games. It seems everyone has mailed it in for April Fools day.

    Nice try though. lol

    I'm... not sure who thought this was funny. Even among April fool's jokes, which are generally awful, this one is... just... I react with puzzlement.

    What of us that have put thousands in the game and all the goods we have now will that rollover like our LOR packs and Delta packs and all that? Everything we bought from the game will it get moved or do we lose it???? If we lose it I will be displeased and the Hive may be torn apart.

    The screencaps have that charming late 90s game look.

    While a good try, I was expecting Cryptic pull a joke based on Final Fantasy XIV's Realm Reborn reboot.

    As in; state that the Temporal agent was killed in the line of duty, and we have lost all contact with regards to the future. And that because of it, the Iconian invasion is going to ruin us all, and no matter how many waves we defeat, they keep coming. And close to server closing, Iconians invade social zones in increasing intervals. And on the last day, we have our final fights around our homeworlds, ongoing before a scripted cutscene plays and kicks us out for the last time.

    And then we get a new game on a new engine, titled something like Star Trek: New Universe.

    It would have been more convincing, perfectly timed (close to an update day as well as the perfect setting), and would have brought far more comments from rage to happiness.

    Might wanna loosen the strap on your nostalgia snorkel there, pal. It's cutting off the circulation to your brain.

    Here is real April Fools' ... you actually bought nothing in this game, it's bascially all just "leased" ... so if something like that'd ever happen you'll get nothing... oh wait that's the truth :P

    PS : Look at the date ...

    When we first launched Star Trek Online in 2010, we had no idea how big it would grow. We had high hopes, of course, and it has been great to watch those hopes be achieved, even exceeded. Back then I was in QA, one of the grunts in sector 7G.

    Dead giveaway that it's an April fools day joke. Cryptic doesn't have a QA department.

    Color me disappointed. I was hoping Delta Recruitment was the April Fool's joke... would have been a lot less obvious and expected than this was.

    Thanks both for the last few years I've been playing and the blast from the past with that Skills screenshot. WOW! Things have come a LONG WAY! Keep it up, guys. Y'all are doing great.

    Got linked to it from the Facebook link, the heading of which read;
    Star Trek Online has brought us intense pride! Over the course of its run, we've made leaps and bounds! Today however we put to rest this glorious and sparkling pony! Holodeck is going to be retired. But wait! There's more! We are proud to announce our latest and arguably greatest project to date: Star Trek Online: Rebirth.

    And the worst thing? It was actually believable.

    Does...does this mean the T6 ships were a prank? :P

    We're bringing down Redshirt currently in order to bring about the good ole' new old days.

    We're calling it Operation Redshirt.

    Or OR for short.

    And it's the real McCoy?

    Of yourse, why would you want a T6 Ship, if could buy the same Ships with EC (for the first time / not the sixth time) :P

    Lol I can't believe anyone would believe this? Also if they did we would all need a subscription to play.
