just a short notice that Codemasters is now advertising JGE as part of their 2008 lineup to games distributors and retailers in Europe. The release date they mention is Autumn 2008.

The Codemasters text implies that the game will focus on faction wars, dogfights and missions (!) and that its target group is experienced MMO veterans.

What what what?

Well it would be nice.. I am looking forward to this title, if its done well.

Oh how interesting, I haven't visited their website in a long time since it was always just a splash screen.. nice video there now and game info/etc.. time to read up

Thanks for the post man

There s also a mention for a Lotro expansion (which i have posted in the relevant section).

I am really looking forward to JGE. I did try JG once, and would really like to see a newer version of this game.

I don't think releasing the game this Autumn is a good idea...I get the feeling it won't be ready..

I heard late 2008 as a possible release. Obviously, provided the beta goes smoothly.

To quote the Developers current working on JGE.

It's done when its done.

Meaning that they will not release the game untill they feel that it is ready for the people waiting.

I am really hoping this will be kind of a cross between Eve and Earth and Beyond but not exactly. I am definitely passing up AoC and Warhammer and waiting for this game.

I am really hoping the dev do what they have been saying they are trying to accomplish with this.

Soon (TM)

Shortly (TM)

When it's done (TM)

Take your pick ^^

Meanwhile Codemasters can go hump a tree

When we least expect it!

they keep saying when it is done and done right , when you ask them. so there is no release date .

I just saw this...hopefully this is set in stone

To the devs: don't release it until it's done. As much as I hate waiting, I would prefer to play a MMO that is largely ready to play than one that feels like a beta.

AOC (Age Of Conan) and POTBS (Pirates of the Burning Sea) are both good examples of what happens when the game isn't ready for release and those two games felt like I was paying 15 bucks a month for a beta invite.

 Inside word is,  this game is much closer to release than we think.  The Devs have a clear vision and are all pros.  We will be playing this by the end of the year....
