We are happy to announce the release of the first edition of Hailing Frequency since February 2010 and it does not disappoint.
In this one hour show, we talk about all of the latest Star Trek Online updates that have hit the game since its launch in February, including the Season 1 updates, the upcoming Season 2 updates and beyond.
Later on in the show, we sit down with Griffin Endurance, lead developer of the Freelance Mod for Star Trek Elite Force 1 - a very exciting upcoming mod that promises to add a forking storyline to the game, flight controls, and a full RPG system!
Most excitingly - this edition of Hailing Frequency sees the return of the highly popular and critically acclaimed segment - "Mod Weekly". Mod Weekly is a long-time Hailing Frequency segment that was with the podcast from its roots back in 2005, until late 2008 when the segment presenter, Croesus, retired to focus on his real life work.
Now, the segment has been revived by community member and modder - Max Loef. Max has produed mods for a range of Star Trek Games, including Legacy and Bridge Commander. He is also an experienced ship modeller, and is a perfect new host for Mod Weekly!.
Rounding out the show, K'suan'indra brings us the latest Star Trek Gaming News, and we have a fantastic edition of Fleet Radio!
If you like the show, please leave a comment letting us know!

Cryptic Studios and Atari are taking a two-fold approach to increasing the player base for their spacefaring MMO, Star Trek Online: First, potential subscribers can now download the game and play through the tutorial and first mission for free. Though they’ll have an unlimited amount of time to tool around in their Federation vessel, players will have to purchase the full game to gain access to STO’s other offerings.
In addition, former subscribers can play for free this weekend, and check out the new content that’s been added as part of the game’s first “Season” of updates. The “Welcome Back Weekend” ends Monday at 10 a.m. PST, so we suggest applicable parties should hop online ASAP, so as not to waste any potential Trekking time.

Leonard Nimoy, the actor who has famously portrayed "Star Trek's" original alien Spock for over 40 years, has announced he's officially hanging up the pointy Vulcan ears for good.
Nimoy, 79, plans to retire shortly from show business and the "Star Trek" convention circuit, according to the Canadian newspaper Toronto Sun.
The actor, director and photographer will be attending the Calgary Comic and Entertainment Expo this weekend, and told the paper that beyond this event he only has a few more public appearances scheduled.
Nimoy also currently guest stars on the television show "Fringe," produced by J.J, Abrams who directed last summer's re-launched "Star Trek" film franchise chronicling a younger original series cast on their first mission on the starship Enterprise.
The retirement announcement all but guarantees that an elder, "from-the-future" Spock (at least played by Nimoy) will not make an appearance in the next "Star Trek" movie.
"I want to get off the stage. Also, I don't think it would be fair to Zachary Quinto," Nimoy told the Toronto Sun, referring to the actor who portrays young Spock in the new film. "He's a terrific actor, he looks the part, and it's time to give him some space. And I'm very flattered the character will continue."
Live long and prosper, indeed.

I'm thinking most of us here got this message from Zach on Hailing Frequency if not then this may come as a surprise about the number of subscribers now on STO.
When Star Trek Online was launched back on February 2nd, Cryptic Studios touted that they had over 1 million pre-orders and subscribers across their Cryptic Network.
It has now been revealed by Jack Emmert in an interview with "The Big Freaking Podcast" that Star Trek Online now has just a hair over 100,000 subscribers, a drop of almost 90% compared to the launch day numbers.
It is no secret that Star Trek Online has not lived up to the expectations of many players - in fact, even I am not playing the game very much (I haven't logged on for over a month at this stage) - however, when you consider that Age of Conan or Warhammer Online have 300,000+ subscribers, Star Trek Online really is struggling!
That hasn't been stopping Cryptic from moving ahead at full steam with new content all over the place, so hopefully, in six months time, the game will be a very different beast compared to what it is now and maybe, just maybe, it will start creeping up in those subscriber ratings again.
