Excellent! Especially giving the player to choose his or her race

To my attention, as popular as Stargate is on the SCI.FI channel, especially the other

local stations that carry the show, this game will be truly successful if done right.

I like the fact it will have 3 major factions that are playable and there will be PvP as well.

Sounds like the folks at MGM are flexible and the folks at Cheyenne Mountain Entertainment

are on the right track!

On another note, MMORPG.COM, needs to give Startgate Worlds a post forum please

I love stargate and so far i love what i'm hearing from these guys.

Star Gate SG1 and Atlantis is and will always be my favorite show. And i have high hopes for this game.
From reading that article i must say im pretty confident that this "can" be one of the best,if not the best MMO out there :D
And for the PvP part it just sounds excelent. But time will tell thou.
The part whit 3 faction's includinng the chance of a symbiot that can change host's. Man bringing the "traitor" or word "spy" a new meaning. I can picture it in my head now. O'boy i cant wait to get some more info on this game as it developes.

Now please give us our own SG Forum to post in

In the mean time, you can use the forums here.

cant wait for this. Huge SG1 and SGA fan

WOW, I cant wait to try this game out, been an SG1 fan from the original movie, the series only added fuel to the fire, and now an mmo SWEET

Excellent Forum there as well!

Umm, this guy helped on Shadowbane and Matrix Online. This doesn't scare anymore but me?

Fantastic article. It's great to hear of any remotely concrete information on SG-W. I've been waiting to see how many races/factions that will be playable and Ybarra's comments give a strong indication of what's to come.

Now if only Stargate World can get it's own MMORPG section that'll be perfect :)

Oh boy!  Another "group to play" game.  I could be very, very excited about a Stargate game as I am an avid fan of the series, but having to actually have a "team" to play makes me yawn.

Here's hoping that the game and its missions allow for solo play with no penalties for not traveling in a group (like not being able to get the phat loot).

Come on, if you want to be anti-social, just do what everyone else does in mmo's, get yourself a couple extra accounts.  From the way it appears, at least for this one you will only need 4 accounts to fill out your "forced group."  Playing solo makes me yawn.

Seriously, the whole concept of SG1 is based on a 4 man team, could you honestly expect an MMO developer to ignore this?  If the missions even vaguely follow the events of the SG teams in the series, they pretty much have to require some team play.  How many times do you see Jack wondering off to an unexplored planet alone?  Sure there can be special "storyline" missions similar to when Jack was imprisoned by Ba'al that would need to be done solo.   The many times Teal'c has been captured by the different system lords, Samantha's encounters with Fifth (the human replicator), Mitchell's ordeal with the Warriors of Sodon all come to mind as solo adventures.

All that said, I hope that they make the game a levelless system with rewards that are geared toward the individual's gameplay.  Make the system based on aqcuiring skills through experience if they feel a need for "the treadmill."  Personally I would prefer skills be granted through exploration, combat, in game problem solving, questing, etc.  Let the individual skill sets be gainable through solo play and the group skills require group play.  For example, there needs to be a means to heal yourself and others, if you only solo play, you will only gain access to self healing techniques and skills.  Same for combat, if you only solo play, you only gain access to individual combat skills (no crew served weapon skills, multi pilot ship skills, etc). 

And with that last paragraph, I hope they make the game equipment open to all players.  Just because I play solo and do not have any crew served weapon skills, does not mean that if I am in a firefight I should not have the simple ability to walk over and pull the trigger on a crew served weapon.  But I should suffer a penalty to whatever modifiers they have in the game for combat (accuracy, reload, etc).

Needless to say I am pretty excited about this game and cannot wait to hear more.
