Being f2p in most cases is actually a bad thing for the most players - such games attract a lot of schoolkids who ruin the game for everyone else. But I agree with the fact that Black Prophecy does have more features and looks better than JGE.
This game looks really boring. Think about the combat. . . all the guy demonstrated was tracking a moving object on the screen and shooting slightly ahead of it again and again and again. It had all the excitement of a simple flash game only with better graphics. You guys need to really THINK about it instead of getting super excited and overlooking the obvious.
Freelancer used to kick ass back in the day and it had fun PvP. I didn't like eve because it didn't have the combat-oriented style of Freelancer. I hope this game comes out, looks nice.
Also Freelancer had this epic atmosphere like when you enter Omicron 42 and it says "RADIATION WARNING". All the different space systems looked awesome and it was fun adventuring them.
No way i am gone buy this unless you make it as deep as eve with a lot of RPG stuff and lvling and just keep the manual ship control but remove manual targeting also.
I mean if they got spaceships they should got turrets that track things and not use guns that only shoot where my ships looks come on this is for kids.....
They are taking so long realeasing this the fanfare has died down considerably also the very very limited info being released loses interest even more as we watch all of these videos even teh website says "Don't think anything you see is permanent as we are constantly changing everything" The game looks great, awesome concept but if they take another year to realease it they well have a scant folowing at first.
Everyone stop talking until you know what you're talking about please. If you've played freelancer, you know how much EVE sucks, and why. This game looks like freelance 2 should have been and for the reason that it plays like freelancer. Gaming is supposed to be about fun, in your face immersive environments, realtime action, beautiful scenery, realistic physics, with a fantasy or futuristic or real life edge to it. but nowadays people keep making copies of WoW. I'm glad this hatched, for sure!
I've been waiting something like this for 5 years. I can't understand EVE. What's the point in space simulation if you can't even fly your own ship :S
i like the artistic touch to this. I play EVE, but to be honest its pretty static, there is only a dozen different looks to the universe.
this looks like a nice game to play, Something to blow some steam off with and not get to serious about. But what is lame is you can't fly Capitol ships.
Capital ships are just objects that when blown-up, mark the end of pvp round. Flying one would just be like sitting inside a battle outpost until it was blown-up. I can't think of any way to make flying capital ships exiting.
I hope you get to tailor not only the equipment and setup of the ships, but how they appear. Different paint-jobs, things strapped to the ship just for the aesthetics (Think the reavers from serenity).
I LOVE EvE, except I do not enjoy the pvp aspect of it. But I fully understand that the game "EvE" is not for "carebears". I just wish there was an "eve lite" for 'carebears' like myself. I'm hoping someday that ccp opens up a pvE cluster. EvE rocks. I'm hoping this game will be similar with less forced pvp.
Check out Black Prophecy. Its like Jumpgate, but in the EVE kind of way. Where Jumpgate is going to be more arcady through looks and gameplay, Black Prophecy is not.
Both are focused on massive PVP, but Black Prophecy has an instacing system like WoW. You could call it instanced dead space.
Though I'll admit that i like the idea of guild space stations, if not private stations. It would be cool to help decorate with space junk that we loot (including rares, vet rewards etc), and to have crafting stations and item storage. Maybe even a mechanics bay for being able to to custom paint jobs on our hull, do upgrades, etc.
iam i the only one that find the overly shiny and colourfull graphic horrible to look at?. also the ships shown so far looks awfully poor designed. this should be a nice change of pace for a week, then back to playing something else cant see myself playing it for long.
I like the colors but I can see why some wouldn't. Besides personal preference, the extra detail and colors would give our comp more to worry about. I think they should make those effects scalable; so we can turn off the pretty stuff if we either don't prefer it, or to improve frame-rates.
they better have privately owned stations and cool mining vessels and safespots and awesome strategies if ure creative, and free-roaming without bumping into a dead end when u've floated around for a while...
sCOuld you imagine how many thousands of stations there would need to be for everyone to have one? Besides, what would you be able to do there that you couldn't at a station everyone docks at to change ships, ect.? ANd of course there are dead end... no game universe is infinite.
true.but private stations wouldn't need a place in the same universe.Everyone could have their own unique "coordinates", and if someone wants to visit your private station,the game could show a warp-effect load screen and then just give the illusion that it took them somewhere in real space.That would consume space in the data storage but not in the game universe.
i think this can hardly fail. The concept is very original and the fact that its based on aiming skills rather than that eve stuff or nything else makes it'' a must take look''
What you don't realize is that EVE didn't have big ass ships from the starts, they were added in as the game went on, what's saying this won't be the same :)?
actually there are different ships for different jobs. Fighter vessels will be smaller, mining vessels larger and slower but more heavily armored, things like that.
Maybe with a patch or expansion? If enough people want it, they are bound to include it. Maybe big ships are so expensive that nobody could afford them for a while!
.... Well gl with that. Cuz it wont happen :) They asked that on the forums and the devs said '' we do not plan to have major player ships in the game after the release becouse we want the players to get... bla bla bla ''
I dont remember. Something about fighting style like in some other games (which I dont remember the names of) To get aadrenalin rush or something like that. And they said tthat the controls and what they have ingame right now would not work with large ships.
Oh, well I enjoyed Freelancer so maybe I'll give it a try anyway, at least if I get a new computer by then because I highly doubt an older system can handle this.
Games like this benefit from p2p. Assuming the dev team uses your money to further expand the game, as opposed to buying expensive antique vases and paintings for their offices like some do, you'll notice a huge difference in quality, bug fixes and new content.
I play EVE, and never played the original Jumpgate, but this game seems to be Baby's First MMO. However, it still looks fun. I love me some dog fighting.
It would be balanced if more people would control one capship. They say that 50 fighters will be taking out 1 Battlesip? That just doesn't sound right to me. I like the idea of a couple of small fighters hitting the soft spot, like in Star Wars.
they should have some elite areas where u can get the big ships but most likey everyone else has one too.. but i'd settle for being able to land on the ship and take on a gun turret..and fire away at the enemy if u dont want to use your ship
Dude. Don't whine of a game you can't handle, eve have and is the most advanced Market-trading games so far. Also Eve have great epic war-combat but I guess you just reached the tutorial pirates.
Overall I think Jumpgate will become a great game for all the Freelancers lovers!
Because targetting someone and pressing "fire" while your ship flies around without you really needing to control it is really advanced and takes tons of brain power and skill.
true, I want to be able to make money in a game, whats the market/trade like in this game? can I get extremely weatlhy like in EVE? if I die do I lose everything? is there player owned towers like EVE? these are some of the questions I have if anyone can answer. I like the unfofgiving nature of EVE and it's coplexity/learning curve. This doesn't seem as complex, but someone fill me in.
I totaly aggre with you CaptainHep, the crule world of EVE is super, if you die you lose everything you had on that ship ect and I think the world TODAY need more advance and Challanging games. =)
i think it's supposed to be a more "casual" type of game but i could be wrong. not that casual games are bad or anything infact this game looks awesome if you ask me. but yeah, personally i really hate EVE. i've played it and just couldn't get into it.
Yeah well EVE has a HUGE learning curve, that's why alot of people try it and quit. I done that ages ago then came back and actually duked it out. But yeah it's alot more of a harsh challenging game, not that I wouldn't play both. You really need that casual fun game when you play EVE.
i heard you can do mining quests.. or deliveries to stations that need certain minirals..for people that love to mine.. hopefully they make quests where you help defend npcs from mining.. or lets say your in the area .. you hear an SOS and they will pay you if u help him defend against a player that is attacking them.. but so far i just heard of those mining quests and above basic items .. players will be controlling the economy past that point.. i just hope they have weapons drops ..
Uh, you certainly don't know EVE Online then. I'm a vet 2003 player and it's pretty hardcore in PVP, however if you stick in Jita all day and stare at space wondering what to do, then maybe this game will be better for you. ;) For the record I played Freelancer when it came out alongside EVE, and yes it is true at times Freelancer feels more immersive in combat due to the nature of play style and ship controls, it does not mean EVE is not intensive in combat, just very different.
For me, EVE Online required way too much collaboration and dedication for my part. I'm only able to to play once every so often, so keeping up with a corp or being active was pretty difficult, so I just ended up ratting and reading about how "last nite's op was so awesome".
this looks to much like arcade, the graphics are pretty bad just flat textures, eve is more syphisticated and has better graphics, plus this its like aim and shoot......crap.
Not to burst your bubble there Dream... but "sins of a solar empire" sucks ass .. so anything that DOESN'T look or feel like that piece of crap game is a plus to me.
Albeit, this said, I'm not impressed one bit by what I just watched, like not one bit, if that's the game, then there is a lot more work needed before it's ready for the mass market.
i thought this was going 2 be a game like sins of a solar empire. This shit sucks ass no one will buy it.
If it was like sins i would totally buy it cause its designed for multiplayer unlike sins. Sins multiplayer sucks ass i have 2 play on hamachi and that stopped working. And this has way better graphics than sins.
I'm not sure how you've come to that conclusion. Just because it's different from EVE it's a kiddie game? Have you ever played a traditional 3D space shooter?
The free flight is all it has on EvE. But, Free Flight is all I ever wanted. However, now it leaves the game open for Aimbot hacks and what not. So it's good that it's fairly easy to aim at a target.
The only set-back this game really has is Codemasters failure to learn why you never start an MMO with 3 teams. Even EvE knew better long ago. They have 4 teams. The 3 Team system is what destroyed RF-Online, 2 teams always combine to kill the other.
i kind have ot go with Yoruyonaka down there :P i alway give it a try all MMO [ not Free to play one ;p i do but less than P2P ] i will give this game a try when it out :) and i kind sick of hot key 1-9 sitting on your but and watching your char fighting *sigh* boring i want more MMo with real time combat
Its an MMO so I cannot imagine there would not be a monthly fee. If you're smart you can generally easily pay your monthly fee off with just side stuff in an MMO, however, with our friend Ebay. Assuming it's big enough and this one looks like it will be.
Looks awesome - i always hated turn based combat, ruined it for me as an mmo, so if this thing has good twitch combat, I'll probably get a new comp to play it (well, along w/ several other promising games that are comin' up).
And character development in WOW, LMAO, its just a numbers game under the hood !!
This is based on an existing MMO that has a steady audience, and there is a load of die-hard space combat fans from the freespace 2 and tie fighter days willing to play this.
With PVP combat, varied and dynamic mission objectives and boss style raids against capital ships, not to mention elite style ttrading, crafting and an economy (phew)... it should not get boring.
I totally just remembered this game out of nowhere. I miss it ;_;

You've made atleast 4 comments dissing the game.
We get it. You arent going to play it.
But please dont LIE about the game, its not out yet, beta has not even began.
Beta should be starting within the next month, with possibly an early September release. No one knows for sure.

hmm, nope only 2 comments and i was expressing my opinion, go get an education 2 year old.
tazerfire 2 years ago
You have four comments, on the first page alone. Anyone can look and see that.
As for 'expressing your opinion', someone asked a question, and you gave a definitive answer - which was false.
Please dont give false information, thats all. Peace.

i have a couple of questions about this game, do you need the previous version of this game to play it and does it have a monthly fee??
verticostate 2 years ago
Their is no previous Jumpgate Evolution, it's the first MMO, yes monthly fee is required.

Sins and this are/look awesome.
For different reasons.
Totally different games.
DispleasedEskimo 2 years ago
Not to burst your bubble there Dream... but "sins of a solar empire" sucks ass .. so anything that DOESN'T look or feel like that piece of crap game is a plus to me.
Albeit, this said, I'm not impressed one bit by what I just watched, like not one bit, if that's the game, then there is a lot more work needed before it's ready for the mass market.
TheDogThatMeows 2 years ago
the bullets move too fast so you dont have to lead your shots, requiring very little skill, which will suck, however, it still looks pretty awesome.
TheValiance 2 years ago
i thought this was going 2 be a game like sins of a solar empire. This shit sucks ass no one will buy it.
If it was like sins i would totally buy it cause its designed for multiplayer unlike sins. Sins multiplayer sucks ass i have 2 play on hamachi and that stopped working. And this has way better graphics than sins.

Sometimes people just want to play a fast-paced action game. Should I go to the extreme of calling EVE Online a game for old farts?

This is a kiddie game just looking at the gameplay. Oh well, back to EVE.
Classic0187 2 years ago
I'm not sure how you've come to that conclusion. Just because it's different from EVE it's a kiddie game? Have you ever played a traditional 3D space shooter?

The free flight is all it has on EvE. But, Free Flight is all I ever wanted. However, now it leaves the game open for Aimbot hacks and what not. So it's good that it's fairly easy to aim at a target.
The only set-back this game really has is Codemasters failure to learn why you never start an MMO with 3 teams. Even EvE knew better long ago. They have 4 teams. The 3 Team system is what destroyed RF-Online, 2 teams always combine to kill the other.
FinalFan0 2 years ago
Unless in PVP the objectives are simply to kill certain amounts of the other 2 teams. Ie: Kill 20 of nation B and 20 of nation C

Its an MMO so I cannot imagine there would not be a monthly fee. If you're smart you can generally easily pay your monthly fee off with just side stuff in an MMO, however, with our friend Ebay. Assuming it's big enough and this one looks like it will be.
Looks awesome - i always hated turn based combat, ruined it for me as an mmo, so if this thing has good twitch combat, I'll probably get a new comp to play it (well, along w/ several other promising games that are comin' up).
Yoruyonaka 2 years ago 2
Hope its not a monthly fee. I odntl ike the idea of that. 1 time pay is better.
SnoweyMan111 3 years ago 4
not likely. it's an mmo after all. expect industry standard monthly fees.

Your wallet is going to be sucked out, by monthly fees, faster than a 1000 dollar hooker that's giving you a blow job XD.

And character development in WOW, LMAO, its just a numbers game under the hood !!
This is based on an existing MMO that has a steady audience, and there is a load of die-hard space combat fans from the freespace 2 and tie fighter days willing to play this.
With PVP combat, varied and dynamic mission objectives and boss style raids against capital ships, not to mention elite style ttrading, crafting and an economy (phew)... it should not get boring.

Epic fail. So it's wing commander in space... no character development, no ship development, no variation. Lame.
Cut, print, done. Who sells these stupid concepts to executives anyway?
crankitup6969 3 years ago
Errm when was Wing commander not in space ?
This is an MMO, but not an MMORPG ala WOW. Check your facts first. Ship development and massive variation in zones are part of the game.
