Octavian. Blow stuff up good.

As said above, the main difference between JGE and EVE is that in JGE you will have direct control over your ship thereby reducing the strategic part a bit, but upping the action :-)

There is just as much strategy involved with maneuvering your ship as there is with stat-based gameplay. Ask any vet from JGC and they will confirm that someone with the skills to fly a small fighter can easily destroy a player with a heavy fighter loaded out with the best weapons. The strategy involved is managing to keep your target in sight while still maintaining velocity to avoid enemy fire.

Soon (TM)

Shortly (TM)

When it's done (TM)

Take your pick ^^

Meanwhile Codemasters can go hump a tree

The only similarities are that they are both set in space.

EVE is a stat-based RPG
JGE is a twitch-based space combat game

The flight mechanic is very different compared to Freelancer.

Other than that it is very similar. I can't wait to play in the beta

Much better than:

Find X NPC
Kill n amount of enemies
Return to X NPC
Receive reward.

Rinse n repeat

there is no spoon

I like the concept but good grief couldnt they have made better graphics ? And the crafting could have been made more familiar like star wars galaxies.

I would expect graphics to be superior to most MMO's considering there is no combat in this game. Instead it looks like something we'd see 10 yrs ago

Agreed. There needs to be a massive graphics overhaul.

Even though it's obvious that SGW would use FPS style, it wouldn't really suit the exploration side of things IMO.

There are plenty of new players around and if you join a guild then you'll be sweet. Plus the expansion will be coming shortly.

I got a free copy of this game a few months ago and it's been sitting on my shelf ever since. Maybe I should check this game out.

All I've received from the users is open, constructive criticism. If people can't handle that on the internet then they need a reality check.

And if someone gives you a bit of lip about something trivial, then you report them to mods and STFU

Judging by the many interviews and the recent Q and A IRC Chat, the NetDevil guys are pretty passionate about getting the fundamentals correct before they even enter beta.
