I just think it is messed up that CodeMasters actually does that on their forums. Why would you separate people in a forum by region? I can see language specific forums, but forums are a great way to build hype and share info on a game.

The delays with JGE are simply what we're prepared to tolerate. I still have a great deal of hope for it. I'd prefer a finished article rather than a messy attempt. I still hope that Black Prophecy kicks off first though as it may provide a touch of incentive to NetDevil.
It might make NetDevil think a lot of things over. Because people have to remember if BP is free and offering certain features and then JGE does the same thing and has a cost... you could see JGE go down fast. JGE will now have to make itself relevant and a must have title to make people pick it over BP. With F2P MMO's starting to grab hold and pull a lot of gamers from P2P games, the MMO's have to be real a must have title.

Agree with you 100% Darkone, JGE needs to stand out from the crowd and warrant it's monthly sub.I must admit to being happy that BP is first out of the blocks but for all the wrong reasons. I'm hoping that all the Blizzard fan boys and the general 'Hangers on' will all troop over to BP and either get hooked or give up on Space games all together, leaving JGE for those that want to re-live the thrill that JGC still gives but in a much prettier way.For me JGC is massivly under subscribed and underrated, it is for me the best Mulitplayer Space Combat Sim that's available on the net, even though subscriber numbers and interest are low. You tell me where else you can flip 180 degrees to the direction you're traveling in and shoot whatever's behind you ? When all is said and done, I've waited two years for JGE so another 6-12 months isn't going to kill me, I just need something from Net Devil/CodeMasters to show my faith will be rewarded.
