New Jumpgate: Evolution Trailer
Posted by Adam Barenblat at 10:30 AM on October 2, 2008
From our visit last week at Net Devil, I can tell you first hand Jumpgate: Evolution is a stunning looking game. Today we got a new trailer for you guys showing off some of the awesome space environments. Expect the game sometime next year for PC.

-Forgot where I read this, but the producers/developers have openly admitted having a thing for BSG style/feel/pacing. Not a bad thing imo.
@valero
-No. Eve that's less like MS Excel in space, more like Freelancer/Privateer/Elite. As it should be. Original Jumpgate predated Eve, and NetDevil and CCP are somewhat friendly anyway.

Wasn't this trailer already posted a while back? Either that or the dialog is almost exactly the same, but I'm pretty sure this trailer is the one that got me to sign up for the beta.

They should rename the game "What x3 should've been"

@sohpi: Yup. This is just another copy of the only actual trailer they've released, that's been around since, what, August?
Get your info straight, Barenblat.

@darthpepito: I think that's one of the reasons I'm excited about it. I start to worry when I think the "Red Team", whom I always make TEC, have a thing out to get me. The AI in Sins is good, but it can't be that good, can it?

@valero: No. EVE Online is you point-and-clicking to direct the ship's autopilot to orbit this thing at this distance and maybe fire this gun at it. Jumpgate is twitch-based combat with players actually piloting their ships.

All I could think of while watching the beginning of the trailer was: Protheans
But even that was a take off of many other Sci-fi stories - and it looks good and interesting.
I'll never play it though - cause it's not on a console.

@zdevex: For realz, I got serious Deja Vu from this trailer. It does seem slightly different from the old one though.

Homeworld 2 looks better, and released 5 years ago.

Looks like it won't be as boring as EVE... I'm sold!

@Raziel66: Have you seen the trailers for EVE? Some of them are far more compelling than this. You can't tell whether a game is going to be boring or not from a trailer.

alright... so the story is standard sci fi dribble... I'm still sold by the MMO space sim aspect. This game'll be one to watch for next year.

OK its a great trailer and it looks like a great game but please can we have some originality? Their last 3 trailers ahve been pretty much replicas of EvE-online trailers.

@valero: more like EVE but ya know... fun? EVE is fun if your day to day job is clawing at chalkboards while running on hot coals, while people throw spears at you, and even then its only mildly fun.
