They said something about it at or just after E3 I think, something along the lines of more details....... but it was still pretty vague, as everything about it had been so far.
Real Star Wars space combat please, not Star Wars Fox! Maybe some PvP and flight too?

I thought they would have revealed more on it at E3, tbh it would give people sometihng to look forwards to :\

You are so pesimistic it isn't even funny. Daniel Erickson already said it's completely changing the whole way space works when it comes out. So stop with knocking the game...again

They aren't giving us any information because they aren't ready to. Knowing BioWare they are working on something so jaw droppingly epic for space combat in this game with capital ships and stuff like that, that when everyone sees it they will be speechless because it will be so beautiful. The graphics in space already look amazing! Just wait for it, and when it comes it will be amazing!

Please don't base everything on that now

I'm assuming when you said "enging" you meant engine and it was just a simple typo? If so, the Hero engine is capable of some truly cool stuff, google some videos of it being used to render space stuff, it's definitely capable of handling space PVP (I mean fundamentally there is very no difference between 3d movement in space and on the ground, your toon is no more difficult to render than your ship, it's just a matter programming.)

Yep, one such example was already linked a few pages back.

Also, every time I see your name, I get Duran Duran songs stuck in my head.

EDIT - I think I just aged myself...

Hope so.
