No need to worry about long downloads or sneaking it past work's/college's download firewall, simply take your Jumpgate install with you wherever you go on USB.

Re: Will Jumpgate Evolution run on a removable flash drive?

I don't think that Jumpgate Evolution will be as small as Jumpgate :/

I think you'll need an extra-large memory stick
When i see the ammount of Gigs used in actual games, i take the bet that Jumpgate Evolution will use at least 5 Go.

But i don't really know the actual capacity of a flash drive


edit: Recent games (mmo too) can run with external hard drive, or after a system format without reinstall them (DAOC, WoW, Vanguard...) I think Jumpgate Evolution could be too

Seems to me that because of the minimum specs requirements this might be possible. My guess is the eventual size might be something like 2GB which will fit on a USB.

Re: Will Jumpgate Evolution run on a removable flash drive?

10+gig USB ram drives are available now. Whether a game will run off of these things realy depends on how often info is read and written to them. These ram drives are significantly slower than the slowest hard drive.

But you can copy it from your flash drive to the hard drive and play, then delete it before you go.
