Many thanks, makes a very interesting link. That looks about right.

Personally, on my wish list is a sanbox game within a game. No small restricted levels or missions, but vast Free space where to do ...stuff in. Player owned convoys. Player owned stations. Mining. You know, Eve Online within SWTOR!
.... I know it will never happen.
Something not unlike Rogue Squadron on GamCube seems within realm of possibility tho. I can easily imagine rly enjoying that as well.

Er..yeah? I'm pretty sure this much is obviuous to anyone who reads any words written about that link at all. It is a demo of free flight engine running on Hero though. It is very interesting in context we have here.

Actually, the devs have stated several times that the Hero Engine has been "extensively modified". What we have now cannot be called the Hero Engine anymore.

Which supports what you're saying. That example above is just about as worthless as LoTRO examples for TESO.
Allix Crowe - Vanguard Trooper -/- Ethavan Crowe - Smuggler Gunslinger -/- Malrath Crowe - Powertech Bounty Hunter -/- Boslo - Jedi Knight Sentinel -/- Jiao-gen Pall - Jedi Knight Guardian -/- Landen Tanarr - Jedi Consular Sage -/- Vaelyth Kinti-kaar- Sith Warrior Juggernaut -/- Oteln'erose'thu - Imperial Agent Sniper -/- Zandur Tuum - Cathar Knight

So they broke what the engine could do for space? Gotcha.

They talk about it at one of those traveling dev things and in one later video. I dont have the link though. Its sounds like its in an alpha stage or maybe pre alpha not sure. Other than that no one knows. Im not sure why its still under wraps though at least with no details. There really isnt any mmo that would take it at this point as most of their competitors are fantasy mmo's and the space oriented mmo's i can think of already have decent to good space combat
