We are investigating a bug where some Gold Members may not have received their additional character slot -- details here (Will be fixed ASAP!).
UPDATE! We are also investigating reports of slow patching and are working on a resolution. For a better patch experience, please restart your launcher. It will pick up where it left off and should be faster to complete.

Anyone care to suggest another science fiction mmo? I;m aware of eve and dcuo.
I like the idea of a plot line of some sort, female armour being designed around a bikini is not a high priority for me, and i can live with some grind.
Stay away from Battlestar Galactica Online. Its no story and nothing but PVP as well as pay to win. Not to mention you have to buy your ammo, and no ground play.
Does Phantasy Star Online 2 count? It isn't available in english yet, but I don't think that the japanese servers region block, and it was announced to be translated by 2013.
Also there is Global Agenda, but from what I heard about aimbotting and stuff you should probably avoid it.
You could probably argue that Cryptics other MMOs, COH/COV and Champions Online are Sci-Fi MMOs, and maybe, just maybe, if one could stretch the definition of what counts as science fiction, Shin Megami Tensei: Imagine counts as a sci fi mmo.

SOE developed a spy type MMO called The Agency, but it was canceled.

True. And it crashes a lot.
I only go back once every two weeks to fly the Mk. VII Viper (30 min-1hr), which handles amazingly. Even then, I find I still have trouble with the open pvp and the constant crashing.
I played it for a bit when it first arrived in the US. It's a fast paced space shooter MMO with open pvp, some nice visuals and a decent story.
BP is a walking corpse, it just hasn't notice yet that its dead. The developer company went kaput, the publisher does nothing except keeping the servers running for now. And the offspring Black Prophecy Tactics is most likely dead on arrival. Horrible outdated gfx, competently unbalances gameplay, ****ty game engine etc.
