    I'm looking forward to this game. It will be in beta "soon".

    It's like naval battle in space. Big spaceships! Broadside attacks! Ramming!

    There is some good gameplay videos in the youtube:

    Neat. Hopefully its more than just arena deathmatch.

    I posted this a while back in the E3 2014 thread, it fell off my radar with Finals in progress. Nice to see some space combat, and they slowed down the ships a good bit it seems.

    I hope it's not a MOBA.

    wikipedia has it in the combat flight simulator genre.

    i heard someone mention moba. yeah.. its not really moba, but it is arena combat... which I personally don't enjoy really. still, it looks like a GREAT arena combat capital spaceship game. i definitely give them credit for making it on its own merits. probably just not for me though.

    MOBA just means Multi-player online battle arena. and as such this does meet that definition.. its not LoL or DOTA for sure... but it is a 5 on 5 battle arena with respawns and timer limited special abilities.

    does it look interesting?... yeah to a point. if its FTP then i can see me spending some occasional time in it.

    The pure semantic definition of MOBA, yes, but not the standard in use definition of what MOBA is. By that definition almost every FPS is a MOBA.

    Oh please, no. Free to play games always cost several times as much.
