"When will X2/Online-Universe be released?"

hi, new here.

now before you hang my up by my testicles and throw moon rocks at me, i DID look at the FAQ stuff, but half the links are dead. Is X2 an online game, mmog style?

i Left EVE Online recently, got sick and tired of CCP's empty promises. Stuff like ... since beta they have promised "player owned stations in 1 to 3 months" and about 12 months into release they still havent turned up.

I was in pc whole salers and X2 rolling demo was running on a machine in the waiting room, got my salivating over the monitor and made a puddle on the keyboard watching it.

Or is the online side of things going to be like Freelancer.. individual servers + saved games. And what of online PVP?

Sorry for question bombardment :/

meh.. found a lot of answers out already, regards mmog part and guilds/corps. online fees, release etc.

the links on the "read this first" thread for the FAQ where broken, got to it another way instead.

I dont expect X2 Online fore a while... I think PC Zone speculated around Mid 2004... but I dont know the release nor have I heard any real information about it, other than it is X, and it is online....

"X2-The Threat", however is out in the UK on the 6th of Febuary

Hay 'Lutz' can I join your clan? 8)

Don't see why not.
You'll have to wait a bit though, first off we need to find out how many of the 16 are actually gonna like the game! :D
There will odds on be about 5 core members though, then the general clan populous.

Either way I'll be posting here for "conscripts." ;)

I loved Jumgate, but man did it piss me off. I played it on and off for nearly three years since release. I probably reopened my account about 9 times.

I was in the beta for Jumpgate and had good fun, but I dropped out near the end of it and never looked back. Some quite frankly odd balancing issues that were according to the developers intentional.
