There's a lot more to Shattered Galaxy than what we've covered in this preview. There are multiple planets (which only experienced players can transfer to), a political system that allows players to vote on the direction of the faction, four to five unique chassis per unit class, a trading/bartering system; the list goes on. Check out the official Shattered Galaxy manual for more info.
The best part about Shattered Galaxy is that you can play it right now, for free. Nexon is running an open beta test. There are a few features that aren't implemented yet, but new features are added every few weeks. The game doesn't crash that often for a beta, and we haven't had any connection problems (although we get to play on a T1). Nexon doesn't have a publisher for Shattered Galaxy yet, so there is no pricing info available. Shattered Galaxy is fun, and leveling up your units and hero is addicting. What are you waiting for?
Big thanks to Planet Shattered Galaxy for helping us fix our SG client last week when the patch was released!
