    I've been able to find basic information about the game on the web, but does anyone know where to find more detailed info about it?  It definitely looks sweet.

    The main site used to have a gamefaq up and running with some features etc. all it has now is screenies and a movie, which was released not so long ago. Reakktors mothercompany 10tacle has filed for insolvency, so no clue on production time yet, or even if BP will see the light of day. Should do ok though, since reakktor is independent (creatively).

    Supposedly it was going to be twitchbased, but i'm not 100% sure of that. Judging from the trailer though where we can see dogfighting and collisions, it did look up to par as a twitchbased piloting MMORPG instead of PaC like EvE.

    Anyhow, all bets are off until 10tacle releases more info on their financial situation.

    yah, it's on the 10tacle site, but only in the German language version, not in the english language version yet. !0tacle's stock has already gone through the floor, so once info surfaces on it's projects we'll see what happens.

    Well that's certainly unfortunate.  Financial difficulties are usually the end of the line for most MMOs.

    The game is now being published by gamigo games, worldwide. They showed this new Trailer of ingame footage at E3 2010. Afaik it's going to be released by the end of 2010 in Europe and the US. I'm currently playing closed beta and it's really awesome! Feels like a mix of X-Wing and Wing Commander with some Eve elements.. though not as deep as Eve.. what I've seen so far was quite casual. Than again, it's early beta... so who knows what they'll have in the final release. That being said, the shooting feels very satisfying :-)
