If there's one thing that's almost more synonymous with <em>Star Trek</em> than classic catch phrases, it's the Klingons. They are the Captain Hook to the Federation's Peter Pan and thus it's important to several potential players that <a href="http://www.startrekonline.com"><em>Star Trek Online</em></a> do them justice. Understandably, when <a href="http://massively.joystiq.com/tag/Cryptic/">Cryptic</a> made the announcement that Klingons would be primarily a PvP focused faction, people were concerned. Players don't want their beloved gruff 'n tough warrior race to become a second-tier faction.<br />
<br />
My time with the Klingon side of <a href="http://massively.joystiq.com/category/Star-Trek-Online/"><em>Star Trek Online</em></a> has given me a pretty good sense for what Cryptic is trying to do with the game. It's not exactly what you may be thinking. It's most certainly not anything like <a href="http://www.lotro.com"><em>Lord of the Rings Online's</em></a> PvMP, as the Klingons have a substantial chunk of the galaxy map to themselves.<div class="postgallery"><p><strong>Gallery: <a href="http://massively.joystiq.com/photos/star-trek-online-klingons/">Star Trek Online Klingons</a></strong></p><a href="http://massively.joystiq.com/photos/star-trek-online-klingons/#2562178"><img src="http://www.blogcdn.com/www.massively.com/media/2009/12/sto_klingons_01_thumbnail.jpg" alt="" title="" /></a><a href="http://massively.joystiq.com/photos/star-trek-online-klingons/#2562179"><img src="http://www.blogcdn.com/www.massively.com/media/2009/12/sto_klingons_02_thumbnail.jpg" alt="" title="" /></a><a href="http://massively.joystiq.com/photos/star-trek-online-klingons/#2562180"><img src="http://www.blogcdn.com/www.massively.com/media/2009/12/sto_klingons_03_thumbnail.jpg" alt="" title="" /></a><a href="http://massively.joystiq.com/photos/star-trek-online-klingons/#2562181"><img src="http://www.blogcdn.com/www.massively.com/media/2009/12/sto_klingons_04_thumbnail.jpg" alt="" title="" /></a><a href="http://massively.joystiq.com/photos/star-trek-online-klingons/#2562182"><img src="http://www.blogcdn.com/www.massively.com/media/2009/12/sto_klingons_05_thumbnail.jpg" alt="" title="" /></a></div><p><a href="http://massively.joystiq.com/2009/12/28/hands-on-with-klingons-and-pvp-in-star-trek-online/" rel="bookmark">Continue reading <em>Hands-on with Klingons and PvP in Star Trek Online</em></a></p><p style="padding:5px;background:#ffffcc;border:1px solid #ffff99;clear:both;"><a href="http://massively.joystiq.com"><img src="http://massively.joystiq.com/media/feedlogo.gif" alt="Massively" style="float:left;padding:0 5px 5px 0;" /></a><a href="http://massively.joystiq.com/2009/12/28/hands-on-with-klingons-and-pvp-in-star-trek-online/">Hands-on with Klingons and PvP in Star Trek Online</a> originally appeared on <a href="http://massively.joystiq.com">Massively</a> on Mon, 28 Dec 2009 09:00:00 EST.
