What do they both have in common? There both twitch based space combat where no point and click with a random number generator takes place in the combat system.. Unlike Eve(don't let those eye candy graphics fool you) and E&B. As for SWG jump to light speed, don't even go there, its not even a 100% space flight mompg.
I was a former beta tester for vendetta and I would like to say why I would choose vendetta online over jumpgate.
* 7680 sectors which is 60x larger than Jumpgate.
* pvp is more challanging than jumpgate. where engine and weapons consumes up the same energy plus you can't move while after burn.
* better graphics, especially when you take an object and put it into the sun, and it blurs. you can see the reflection when looking at an ice roid.
* OS friendly.. don't forget that! vendetta is availible for all 3 platforms. jumpgate is only availible for windows.
* better control system than jumpgate. where strafing your ship left and right comes to mind.
* the ability to control multi-manned ships. no more flying those miserable star fighters.
* cargo drops when ship is destroyed.. adds more aspect to the game.
* 2 flight modes(arcade, newton) to toggle to which make the game have an easier learning curve. no more trying to stop your ship slowly and point at the docking port.
I understand that vendetta is still under development but its often getting better in the future esecially in the release.
