Playing: The Saga of Ryzom since march 2004
Well there is also Fallen Earth, should be here around Christmas or Q1 2007 and .... well that's about it as far as real MMORPGs goes.
Huxley will be an MMOFPS, Tabula Rasa a sci-fi version of Guild Wars (with subscription ofcourse).
Star Trek Online, Star Gate Worlds and newly announced Divergence - all these games have a really big chance of newer being released or being terrible (think Dark and Light).
For now there are only 3 choices: EVE Online, Star Wars Galaxies and Saga of Ryzon
You can go on to the games list on this site and sort it by genre if you need any more ideas.
I have a hard time categorizing Saga of Ryzom as sci-fi.
Maybe it's not purely Sci-Fi, still it does have enough elements of it to be different than pure fantasy games.
The backstory, the world and creatures are all completely alien, so they should appeal to those who like Sci-Fi and are fed up with fantasy games.
Too bad the game has so little content (almost no quests), unless something drastic happened in the last few months.
the only one that is kinda of sci-fi and i'd play is CoH, which has to be awesome :>
You all may want to have a look at Force of Arms. It's a Sci-Fi MMO being made that has mechs and things.

There is absolutely no way, a 0% chance that Fallen Earth will go gold this year or next. They don't even have forums on the (extremely static) official site. They aren't in beta and the developers have repeatedly stated that they are in no rush to release the game.
Not sure of its chances of being released. Info is scarce. Sign up for the newsletter. That's about it.
Yeah I was probably a "little" too optimistic about the Christmas, Q1 part (those ware old rumors...very old)
Tho I think it has very good chances of being released and actually being a decent game. Judging from the screens and movies from alpha (? or was it internal beta), the engine looks solid, the small part fo the world they are showing looks nicely done, they have decent lore, the animation looks nice (when the character is fighting that sand worm with a nailed club).
There is the question if they can find a decent publisher, good servers, and add a lot of interesting content, good quests and fun and challenging PvP, and if they will have all those extra features (like player housing, player towns, vehicles, ...).
But what I really want is a ground based MMORPG set in a little more distant future or/and even on another planet. A modern Anarchy Online or Star Wars Galaxies 2. Not being in some destroyed world or locked in a space ship (thou that should be an option, every next gen MMO should have different kinds of vehicles/mounts).
Divergence looks promesing, but for now it's just an idea. And lets hope the devs have some more skill in developing the game that building web sites (FE site is pretty ugly and static, but at least they didn't just use some phpBB template).
