Here are the latest screens for Codemasters' space MMO Jumpgate Evolution.
Designed for "experienced and novice MMO players alike", the NetDevil developed PC title "will allow players to choose from one of three playable nations and engage in an intense action experience featuring ship-to-ship combat in a persistent online universe".

I love a good space opera and yet MMOs receive a lacklustre reception at best in my personal world. Meh. Would like to try this but not for the multiplayer aspects. Now if there were a single player mode I'd be much more interested but I don't expect that will be part of the parcel.
