Yes, I'm David "Scepter" Read, Lead Community Manager at Stargate Worlds. Please call me Scepter

I've been a part of the team here since the beginning of this year, but have been a Stargate fan since the first episode of SG-1 entered syndication. I've been actively involved in what the team is bringing to life here, and am so very proud of them -- and so excited for the fans.

Please favor me with your questions!

Hello Scepter,

I am a BIG fan of Stargate sg1 and Stargate Atlantis, I will try to keep my questions to a minimum.  First i would like to know how the traveling will work.  Will we be able to move freely form planet to planet. or will we have to move at time in game?  Next i would like to know how the game play will work, as in most MMORPG's you have a quest/mission to complete, since clearly in the Show they jump right in and find what to do will the game play be similar or will we be get orders from some one?

Ill stop here for now

A BIG fan,

Fuznooker

Hello, Fuznooker!

In future, please do me the favor of starting new threads for your questions, so everyone can jump in.

I'm not sure they've totally figured it out yet, but I believe as you complete missions you will obtain more gate addresses, which will allow you access to more planets, which you can then return to whenever you like. As to gameplay, that's definitely out of my league.

Cheers!

Ok. I am really excited for SGW to come out. But i am wondering, what ways will people pay. Will there be pre-payed game cards at stores or will it be just paying from a credit card?

Joe Ybarra has talked long and hard about the importance for the game to be reached by as many people as possible. There will definitely be multiple ways for you to play our game. I'm not at liberty to disclose those details yet -- mainly because we're approximately a year from launching and many haven't been ironed out -- but rest assured you will have no problem playing.

That is a good thing to know  thanks for the info.

hey i have opened maby 2 topics now about the same thing and im still wondering is it a monthly fee on stargate worlds

There will be a monthly fee to play the game

ohh ok about how much?

You can expect the game to be a competitive price with other popular games available at the time, in both retail box price and monthly subscription.

well ok i will play it anyway  i  stargate :D

Just a friendly reminder -- our team is still interested in taking your questions here! We appreciate your interest in our game!

hi Scepter!

if you remind us that friendly ... :D

here's my question:

as mentioned by J. Ybarra SGW will be released in winter 2008/09. that's 6-8 month till launch.

when can we expect some ingame videos of SWG, showing the graphic engine in motion?

thx in advance for your answer!

   Hello mr Scepter,

                   I m not a fan of the show, I know MacGyver was on the show,  anyhow.
