    I am hoping for what they are promising.  JGC with a better economy and less reliablitiy on Player driven conflict.

    JGC was fun but, it got tedious at times with all of the player driven drama.  At times you just could not tell WTF was going on.

    I loved the political side of the game . I dont know if you were on the euro or US server  but I certainly found on the euro server we had a great balance of player squad dynamics. Then again I was always up with the conflicts being a squad leader. I do understand your confusion at times though but I just found the whole thing exciting but thats just me.

    JGE will be different Im sure but I hope it will keep the spirit of JGC.

  • Well JGC used semi neutonian physics. If you used thrust to go forward you continued n that direction but slowed down gradually . This of course ment you could turn your ship to face backwards and fire while still travelling in the origional direction . Depending on the weight of your ship or cargo this affected the slow down and indeed the acceleration.

    The new game uses the same physics but has the option to use thrusters to give you a bit more control over your turns. You can turn them off but I didnt notice a lot of difference when i played the alpha.

  • If you dont PVP you can play on the PVE server where as I understand it the PVP is concentual. So you have no worries.

    I will be pushing for a PVE and PVE server while in beta for sure as I dont want pure PVE players on the server I am on as it causes too much agrivation . I believe you have a choise on how you play your games and I dont want to infringe on anyones game deliberatly or accidently.

  • I played eve for a bit after I finished JGC . I always said EVE model with JG flight physics would be the perfect game. After playing for a while i decided it wouldnt be hahaha.

    I hope for a strong economy and skill needed to actually fly well . PVP I hope will  need even more skill to defeat your oponant .

    I played the game at connect 08 and it was very polished for an alpha but far too easy . That said the devs explained the game had been toned down for a new player experience and the ships had also been increased in size to make it easy er.

    Im sure this will be tweaked a bit but all in all I was quite happy with what they have done so far. And yes I am a nasty veteran hostile JGC player.
