As previously reported, the Star Trek Online demo has been released offering unlimited playtime for a limited amount of content with Cryptic's MMORPG set in the Star Trek universe.

Star Trek Online

You can play through the entire Star Trek Online Tutorial, as well as the Episode "Stranded in Space." Master your skills in space and on the ground, then rescue the S.S. Azura! The Demo is restricted to the Federation faction.

Additionally, players that have allowed his or her game subscription lapse are welcome to play for free this weekend as Cryptic attempts to draw players back to the game.

Various other reward and incentive programs have also begun which reward players with in-game items or currency for the amount of time played as well as for referring new players to the title.

[Note: The link to the demo installer was removed by request of the developer.]

There are that many "ex" players already that they have to point it out as some big incentive?

The installer seems to be a torrent, using TCP port 6881. It's doing just shitty, I'm gonna try forwarding that port on.

So for current players how much has the game changed? My only experience is from the beta but from what I read not much changed from that -> launch.

Is it worth the subscription? Or is it still a "Buy it, play the 30 days cause you'll see all the contnet by then, shelve it next to your Warhammer Online copy"?
