I wanted to do a follow-up on my last post about the game. More information has come out and it has answered some of my questions. So I hope this will answer some of the questions you have about the game as well.
What kind of servers will there be?
The game will have both PvE and PvP servers. There will be nothing special about the PvE servers. From the way it sounds the PvP servers will have PvP enabled zones but outside of those zones there is no PvP. Kris Klug says, that as of launch the PvP world(s) will be setup this way. After launch there will be an episode released that bring full scale PvP, contested cities/zones and battlegrounds to the worlds.
Transportation
There are various modes of transportation in the game. Everything from dialing a Stargate (“chappa’ai”) to travelling on a ship. The ‘gates will be active for the 38 minute cycle just like in the show. However, each person or group will be able to travel to the location they wish regardless of which address activated the gate. Also, ‘gate address will be aquired through missions and completeing story arcs. You won’t be able to teach other people the new address but you will be able to dial it for them.
That is all I am going to say for right now, so stay turned as I find out more information.

Here is to hoping that they get it right. MMO’s need a good sci-fi game to fill the void. At least until 40k MMO is launched.
Bummer about not going the RvR route though. It would have had great potential there.

Yeah, I would have liked to see them bring RvR style play to a Sci-Fi MMO. Maybe, when they say that after the launch they will have contested areas that is what they mean. I imagine it would only be on PvP servers or maybe they will do RvR servers too.
