• • Noobie question : Is JE an expansion/upgrade or a new game?

  • i imagine JG will be decomitioned and JGE will be the only game,as it stands JGE is really only making JG look better bigger ect with massive GFX upgrades and larger universe.

• • JUMPGATE HAS BEEN OPEN SINCE 2001

  • The topics in this forum are alittle silly from where i sit, there is a perfectly GOOD game in JUMPGATE that is available to play right now,

    that is the game that the JGE is enhancing,if you want to know anything abou the JGE flight system combat economy mining or exploreing go spend a month at jumpgate and get a first hand look.

    for the most part all that they are changeing in the new JGE is the size of the universe better AI in the NPCs better gfx and looks,sounds ect the majority of the game is allready done and has been for 7 years.the changes or the JGE project was started because they had taken the old 2001 engine to about as good as it could get.

    which back in 2001 wasnt the best now with all the new technology ect its much easyer for them to take the core design and revamp the old looks and so on and wrap them around a solid allready tested game that is JUMPGATE.

    so get off your bums and go check out jumpgate after the inital shock of the bad gfx you soon forget about what things look like when you have been playing alittle while the game play grabs you by the throat and keeps you well interested beyond the eye candy there is an actual work of art.

• • i have a question about this game

  • jumpgate was out B4 eve or freelancer,agood while too and the flight is nothing like the poxy controls in freelancer thank god.

    if you want to see what JGE is going to be like combat/trading/mining/exploreing wise just go play jumpgate.

    its cheap enough  and even has an offline simulator you can play around in to learnt he flight basics b4 you play online.

• • PLEASE, PLEASE adopt the WOW approch to PVP

  • reading all these posts i have to wonder how many of you ppl out there have actually played jump gate,JGE is an UPGRADE to the original game that is a blast for new and vet players alike.

    jumpgate has the play style and game mechanics down pat for the most part, only thing it was missing was a big enough universe and a player base.

    The PvE and PvP in the game are well setup within the boundries of the game and jumpgate is nothing like any other space MMO b4 or now.EVE is boreing having played it for 8-12 months i have not met one vet that wasnt bored to tears nearly half of the time they were playing,goofing off and getting drunk and basicly just to wrapped up in the investment they had put into and the social firends they had made to leave in search of something better.

    JGE is for the most part (i hope) just a gfx/sound  and larger universe with some more content,and for the most part keeping the real space physics flight mechanics and economy ect as it is in the original game right now,that i am playing again and i suggest all you ppl out there that are yapping for changes and useing other games as an exsample of how to change things to shut up and go play jumpgate.

    WOW is not a benchmark for anything,it is not the best MMO on the market just because of sub numbers,75-80% of WOWs subs have NEVER tryed anything else and they have no opinion worth hearing on subjects they have 0 experience with.

    if i remember rightly WOW was so back logged at launch because they only had 1-2 PvP servers because all their research showed none hardly likes to PvP,yet it was these PvP servers that were over flowing with ppl trying to get in and all or most of the other server types were quite low volume and easyer to get in even as they added alot more PvP servers in the following days/weeks trying to login to a PvP server any time in the first mosnth or 2 yeiled waiting times of 4+ hours.i dont actually pay to wait in ques i guess their research department wasnt as smart as they thought they were.

    there where many threads on the main forums yelling for more PvP servers B4 end of betta but obviously WOW knows best. NOT.

    so leave other games out of the mix when it comes to JGE untill you have played the original and have seen first hand how well it is setup and how it all fits so nicly together.
