It isn't even trying to be EVE. It's trying to replicate those epic dogfight space battles you see in
Star Wars and
Battlestar Galactica.
You don't even steer your ship in EVE, let alone push buttons to fire weapons.
EVE has a gameplay for people who want strategy, simulation, and depth. It has a steep learning curve, as it has tons of detail.
With JGE, you can jump right into it. It's going after those players who enjoyed
X-Wing vs. Tie Fighter and
Wing Commander, and who may want to have an engaging MMO experience fighting against dozens of others online in huge battles.
This is not an EVE clone. I don't know of a single MMO out there that's like this. Try and find me one; I'd like to play it. Otherwise, I'm waiting for this release.
Just because it's set in outer space, it doesn't mean it's trying to be EVE.
Here is how the battles work for each game. A huge difference by gameplay standards:
I admit this game might end up sucking. That's always the risk. What I'm also saying, however, is that there is no game out there like this as an MMO. (At least, not to my knowledge.) And so I'm simply waiting for a sci-fi MMO experience that I'd like to play. The sci-fi end of things is lacking, I find, and so it's just a matter of time before something comes along. There is a lot in production, so I'm just keeping abreast of things.
