[edit] SG1 On Hold

No where has it been announced that SG1 has been cancelled. The only thing that has been cancelled is the Sci Fi channel's orders for the show. MGM, have expressed great interest to continue the franchise. Until the show has been officially cancelled by MGM (its owners) can this be said.

According to Sci-Fi their contract with MGM forbids them from taking the show to anyone else so unless Sci-Fi has a change of heart the show is effectively canceled officially. -- Toksyuryel talk | contrib Image:Toksyuryel wikipedia sig img.jpg 22:39, 5 April 2007 (UTC)
That doesn't make sense seeing as how the show is syndicated.
On Hold = Canceled for all intents
Sadly, TV is a buyer's market, and not an owner's. Meaning, MGM can wish all they want. Without a buyer to provide the money to keep the show going, they're SOL.
The idea of the franchise being continued is a reality. There will be two direct-to-dvd Stargate movies. (Stargate:_The_Ark_of_Truth Stargate:_Continuum)--Astrodog93 00:16, 20 June 2007 (UTC)

[edit] No Unas

I'm not very good with editing Wiki, but in a QA, Worlds developers said that Unas would most likely NOT be in the game. http://www.stargateworlds.com/warehouse/download/381_original.mp3

[edit] inclusion of the pegasus galaxy

"The game will revolve at release around the Milky Way Galaxy, in the fictional storyline of the ongoing conflict between the Tau'ri and Goa'uld. Playable races as shown at this time will include Humans, Goa'uld, Jaffa, and Asgard. The major conflict in the game will between good and evil, the antagonists being the Ori and Goa'uld. Expansions to the game may include the fictional Pegasus Galaxy, suggested by the game's inclusion of the Ori.": the ori have nothing to do with the pegasus galaxy so unless im not getting what you mean i have no idea what your talking about!

[edit] Fate of Asgard Race

As of the last episode of the Stargate SG-1 Storyline, Unending, the Asgard have been shown to have committed universal suicide. As such it is highly unlikely that there will be an Asgard race in the game if it hopes to be place after the end of the show. Furthermore, the Pegasus Galaxy will involve the Wraith not the Ori. Ori galaxy has not been properly named, but speculation has drawn a comparison to the M31 Galaxy. Hope someone will clarify on the fate of the Asgard for the game. 208.17.32.27 20:47, 24 August 2007 (UTC)—Preceding unsigned comment added by 208.17.32.27 (talk) 20:37, August 24, 2007 (UTC)

It could be assumed that the game takes place before the series finale, or that it takes a different dimension where the Asgard are still active. Joiz A. Shmo 21:55, 24 August 2007 (UTC)
Does it seem likely that they would abandon continuity if they need to get as many users as possible? Especially with the release of Direct-to-DVD movies continuing the SG-1 Story, and absence of Asgard from Atlantis would lend itself to maintaining continuity? After all, we Stargate fans are a rabid bunch. :-) Jeeves5454 13:05, 27 August 2007 (UTC)
It been confirmed that the game is intended to take place between Seasons 3 and 9.-Baldr aka GWatson • TALK 10:02, 23 October 2007 (UTC)
New information puts the game starting BETWEEN Seasons 8 and 9. -Baldr aka GWatson • TALK 21:22, 29 February 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Tollana

This page points out that the game's website has concept art of non-destroyed Tollana. I was thinking of adding it as a clue to when the game will be set, but I guess they might have been studying the undestroyed version to base the destroyed version on it, or something. --DocumentN 23:26, 9 October 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Stargate usage

Won't the stargate alway be in use or is it that the stargate can be used by oone user and to another user the stargate is not in-use --Jay (talk) 22:12, 23 November 2007 (UTC)

Information on how the Stargate works exactly has not been released by the developers yet. -Baldr aka GWatson • TALK 18:35, 4 December 2007 (UTC)
Ow, OK Merry Christmas everyone! --ジェイターナー ✉／✐ 12:21, 22 December 2007 (UTC)
Any new info? --JayTur1 (Contribs) 21:18, 4 February 2008 (UTC)
I thought I heard or read somewhere that they plan on having the way the stargates operate differ from the differnt types of planets. For example: if the planet that you are on is a "home-base planent" that has a lot of traffic, they said something like the gate would just always be on and you would just choose where you wanna go and step through it without having to wait for it to shut down (as this could, obviously, prove to cause SERRIOUS problems for players). On much lesser planets, however, they said that the gate operation could possibly be reverted to the usual operation of a stargate where you have to wait for it to be out of use and dial it up manually. Now, I cannot actually source this, so don't quote me on it, but I'm pretty sure it's on the Stargate Worlds website somewhere... I'll see if I can find it again.

[edit] New Changes

I like the new changes and nicely cited, however, its missing information on the Op-Core (and the prison), and the information on the Factions(SGU and ???, the other faction has been publicly named yet). I know in the Developer Q&A podcasts on stargateworlds.com has all of that, I'll try to add it in if I have the time. Baldr aka GWatson • TALK 20:23, 4 January 2008 (UTC)

[edit] GNU/Linux support

Does anyone know if this game will run in Linux systems? I ask because it uses the Unreal Engine, which is closs-platform... —Preceding unsigned comment added by 81.39.127.183 (talk) 17:11, 5 January 2008 (UTC)

Yeah, what OSs will it be on? Mac, Windows XP, Linux, PS2, PS3, Xbox 360? --JayTur1 (Contribs) 21:21, 4 February 2008 (UTC)
It's been said by devs and in the forum FAQ thats its only being developed for Windows XP and Vista. -Baldr aka GWatson • TALK 21:19, 29 February 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Message from Stargate Worlds Wiki

Hi,

I'm Penguin, lead content editor on the Stargate Worlds wiki. I'm currently working on updating and improving the content on this page. In the meantime if anyone has any questions head on over to the wiki or check out the community forums. Bobpenguin (talk) 05:51, 6 January 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Tone

The tone seems a little too playful and casual, so I tagged this article. Examples- "Jaffa in the game are like Jaffa in the show: big and tough.", "When exploring new worlds this class is definitely handy to have on hand if when dealing with advanced alien technology.", and "The Asgard will be a faction specific class, so no evil Asgard." Ace ofspade (talk) 22:09, 6 January 2008 (UTC)

Duly noted on this, I'll be helping out the ones at SGWWiki to help get this article cleaned up over time. --bc (talk) 14:32, 2 February 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Training

Does anyone know if it will be like America's army, where you do basic training or will it be a learn as you go? —Preceding unsigned comment added by Joseph.spiewak (talk • contribs) 15:09, 11 February 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Spelling mistakes

The box thing on the left has spelt Mountain wrong. It currently lists "Cheyenne Moutain Entertainment" as the developer.

This seems to have been fixed after my minor edit to that box. --bc (talk) 16:59, 19 April 2008 (UTC)
