F2P Star Trek Online will give more options to Klingons

Klingons to be on par with Federation players.

With the recent announcement that MMO Star Trek Online would be going free-to-play, Cryptic Studios' Dan Stahl has stated the new model will introduce more content that will help Klingon players to be "on par" with Federation players.

Speaking to MMORPG.com, Stahl explained:

"What this model does is help move the Klingon players closer to being on par with the Federation.

"It means more ships, more costumes, more content that they can play. By increasing their starting level, it also means improving their leveling progression and ensuring there is a good PVE experience for Klingon players who do not want to PVP."

Earlier this month Perfect World Entertainment announced its plans to turn the MMO into a free-to-play, after a conference call with CEO Kelvin Lau in which he stated:

"This is going to be launched by the end of this year as well. So I think free-to-play model we have a bigger potential in US market and also in China market."
