Star Trek Online - City on the Edge of Never - Part 2

This is game play footage of the mission "City on the Edge of Never" from Star Trek Online. This is personally my favorite mission. You learn more about the Kuvah'Magh, take a trip back in time (by means of the Guardian of Forever), help save a classic ship, and even get a better understanding about a question that has plagued Trekkies ever since we saw the first ridge-headed Klingons.

All in all, it is a very well written mission.

My apologies now for some parts of the video. FRAPS caused some lag during game play, forcing me to shut it down and not capture video.

Are the turrets really useful, and is it an Engineer skill?

Thanks for this. I am not sold on the game which looks too focused on clunky MMO combat rather than being a good Trek experience but you make it fun.

They are an engineering skill. For the player, you get that skill from equipping engineering kits.

While they may not be as powerful as a player's rifle, I like having the additional firepower at times. Plus, the enemy will sometimes be distracted by the turrets and try to attack them instead of the away team, which gives us the opportunity to do more damage.

@bsjt: How could you possibly watch this mission through and not be sold on this game? All the story based mission are like little episodes of star trek! This mission's more like a movie though.

Never understood why they decided to ditch armor the the future...
