From Daniel:
First of want to say love the show been listenening since
your first week after hearing about you on BoE.
Just wanted to chime in and say that there was indeed a
Firefly mmo planned but for buget and other reasons has been put on perminent
hold at the pre production level.
I agree with you all that I would be an awsome game if done
right, but knowing TV series to game history I know that it would not live up
to the potential so sadly hope that it stays on hold.
Keep up the great work

WoW News:
- Patch 3.3.2 notes
- Frostwing Halls is now open.
- New strength-based melee DPS rings are now available from representatives of the Ashen Verdict.
- Tier-9 Sets: The Aspirant vendors at the Argent Tournament grounds have worked out a deal with merchants in Dalaran so that all item level 232 set pieces will now be available on armor vendors in the city. Set pieces which require trophies will still be available for purchase only from vendors at the Argent Tournament grounds.
- The party leader is now referred to as Guide in chat when a group is formed via the Dungeon Finder.
- A few talent changes to druids, shamans, Warlocks and Warriors
- Tweaks made to several instances
- Some words on talent tree changes in Cataclysm from ghostcrawler Via-MMOChampion.com
- We are not deepening the trees. This actually unlocks some interesting opportunities. For the first time, you can reach a 51 point talent and a 21 point talent in another tree.
- We want to see far more “cookie cutter” build guides that say “Spend the last 5-10 points where you want.”
- New Battlenet security Page

Games:
Nevik: STO Beta/Head start impressions
- Got home (early!) on Friday thinking my STO client was ready to go. Denied: 2.5 3 hr patch via Steam Steam felt it necessary to delete my STO client and redownload it. This is due to the STO client patching itself outside of the Steam client, causing Steam to think it is corrupted.
Best advice I’ve seen to remedy this issue is to run the STO directly (ie do not use the Steam shortcut) and disable the Steam client from updating the files. This is accomplished by going to your My Games tab in Steam, right click Star Trek Online, select Properties>Updates and set that to “Do not automatically update this game.”
