Hello chaps,
Is anyone else playing this game? It went open beta a few days ago and it's pretty good fun, you can choose to be human or cylon and it's free play and browser based! You only need to install a tiny program and then you're ready to go, you can be registered and playing in about 2 minutes.
It is similar to Eve in some respects, skills train in a similar way but you do actually have a character that can walk around outposts and Galactica to pick up missions and buy/upgrade weapons etc, though you won't see any other players when you are docked, only when you're flying around do you see others. Mining is a core part of the game also, upgrading/buying things often requires tylum and large amounts of it.
Graphics are surprisingly good as is the music and sound effects, i've only been playing a couple of days but get the feeling that it's designed to be a slow progressing game.
PvP is a big part of the game as the universe consists of an array of sectors which can be attacked and taken under control by either faction, so there are constant battles raging to maintain control.
There are three eu servers and two american, i did try one of the eu but found it was full of frenchies, so moved over to a us one with a friend.
If you like eve and battlestar galactica then you'll love it - http://us1.battlestar-galactica.bigpoint.com/
I'm on Scorpio server, a human and my name is Moustachio, give me a shout if i'm on and i may be able to answer some questions. Though there is much that i don't know myself.
