ELP
It did happen, its just there wasnt so many asshats in the online gaming scene then. No tags would be a disaster for those not wanting to do PvP. Great for PvPers though.

people didn't do those things in beta because the community was able to police itself.

LOL great selective memory. And contradictory of what most rational people have said (and yes I include Grimgriz).

There were MORE asshats back in beta.

Then they should probably consider something other than a space combat sim, I guess.

Combat sim does not have to mean player vs player and its been called a space combat sim, space simulator with combat. The combat bit does not mean it has to be player vs player all the time. Couldnt it just as easily mean players combating the space enviroment simulator ?.

Re: Would you play if Jumpgate had no Registry Tags?

Sweet, let's advertise Jumpgate as an MMOG combat sim, and inform players when they arrive that the only meaningful combat is against the AI. That won't be a marketing disaster at all.

When I read your posts dailatron, I keep thinking you must not have played much of early release. It was very special, and because it was unlike any other game out there, we played it for years longer than any other game out there. It was not the Slaughterhouse of Innocents you seem to think it was.

Jumpgate is a Massively Multiplayer Online Flight Simulator - set in space.
It's not an MMORPG - it's an MMO space flight and combat game.

"Massively Multiplayer" means Jumpgate was originally written to handle thousands of players trading and fighting in the same virtual universe.
Ok so now I’m confused and lets remember that Jumpgate is how old?

Its now 2007 and Jumpgate Evolution will be with us in 2008/9, people need to stop living in nostalgia of a by gone age and accept that this is now and peoples game play expectations have moved on and they want more from their gaming time than they did back at the end of the 90’s.

Maybe its just me but it all seems like people cant see beyond their won versions of what Jumpgate should be like or was back in the first days of beta, when we are discussing a new and evolved Jumpgate..

I’m so bored of reading the same reply’s to the same questions in numerous posts,, going around and around and not bringing anything new to the table.

Re: Would you play if Jumpgate had no Registry Tags?

Well it was on late 2007 when the Jumpgate Evolution game producer (Drakker) referred to Jumpgate Evolution about 10 times during an interview as a "space combat sim." So it's not my nostalgia, it's my current information. That does not mean ND will not also be doing other things it said -- making the game more accessible and protecting n00bs . . . but it also seems to suggest they they continue to make the game true to its origin.

You need to start keeping up on the facts.
