1UP: Star Trek Online Interview

Star Trek Online has had a troubled past, and has seen much adversity as it tries to find its place in the universe -- much like Khan Noonien Singh. After first being developed by Perpetual Entertainment over the course of four years, the studio filed for bankruptcy, and Cryptic Studios (famous for its City of Heroes and City of Villains games) then picked up the license. After that, the information flow about STO became a slow trickle.

But over the last few months, said trickle has turned to a stream, as more and more screenshots have been released as well as new information on the starships players will be able to control. Recently, 1UP had a chance for an email Q&A with executive producer Craig Zinkievich, and ended up asking some nerd-core questions to get a better idea on how the game is coming along.
