Our current plan is to localize the game for the German market, hopefully using my fluency in the language!  The original game was localized and we had a lot of dedicated players from there, so we're really excited to bring Jumpgate Evolution to the market.

We have tentatively scheduled a second half 2008 release. Of course, we don't want to ship the game until it is ready, so all dates are subject to change.

Also a few other fun things, including new screenshots, thrown around in that article... FYI first 2 pages german... 2nd 2 pages english... i assume the same info... my german sucks.

I'm assuming that all the Euros will be forced to play on the European server and the Americans on the American server. Were people thinking differently?

Jump

Why would we think either way if no info was given either way?

My spell checker used to try and do that until I added it.

Player driven economies tend to be much more interesting so we want to try and give the players a much more meaningful role than in the original game. For me and many other people, loot is a big thing in games so we want to make loot play a much larger role as well. Many types of loot and many ways of getting it.

Player driven economy... misa like it

BTW, notice on page 4 says Solrain Fighter. Not sure what to get from the other 3, if anyone with german knowlege can chip in....

German would be easier to understand if it were English.

The Germans certainly managed the server better than the US, that's for sure.

Someone linked an earlier article talking about a separate European distributor.
