Beta is not running yet, they are currently working through F&F atm which is still hush hush in the studio itself…. so I have very little faith believing Viiral has actually touched the game.

From everything Scott has been saying in his numerous interviews – the economy will be pvp based – as in having to kill your way through other players to get to the goods. I’m really looking forward to having a high competition aspect… Eve is just so boring. :]

They only have special dates for beta testing and there have been special tasks for every beta test i cant tell.

It’s still in Friends & Family beta, i guess i was very lucky to even get to try it.

Haven’t heard any news about a new beta event since Jul 22nd.

Really? I didn’t know beta was running already. How’s the economy compared to EVE’s?

I beta tested Jumpgate earlier this year :) It was pretty cool.

I’ve been wanting to play Jumpgate: Evolution for ages, and you’re right: the new version looks like it’ll play a lot like Freelancer. I’m not sure how happy I am about that, because I preferred the more old school type space sim gameplay of its prequel (Starlancer). But Jumpgate: Evo promises to have proper joystick support and hardcore flight mode, so I’m sure that it’ll be fine.

STO is hard to call. I’ve heard a lot of positive reactions to its gameplay from people who got hands-on time at shows. But the footage doesn’t seem overly exciting, and I’ve never particularly liked Cryptic’s previous MMOs.
