out on steam now....but to be honest i would say WAIT.At the moment i am finding it bordering on unplayable the frame rate is incredibly bad (my specs are phenom II x4 core 3.2ghz 6gb of ram and a 6950 amd graphics card) also many many many bugs
As far as what i have managed to play its early days so far but i am a bit disapointed as it seems like you will only control one ship directly though you can own other ships but you have to command them (in previous two games you can control any ship )
Looks like they have tried to reign in the scale as now it seems like its like its not as a big a galaxy as previous games its more like a solar system that you explore and there are highways to get to each area
There are first person sections where you can look around your ship or go around space stations and talk to people and loot crates etc but there not that good as finding people can be a pain and it just takes far to long (also the characters look terrible)
while i have no doubt in 6 months the game will be a lot better i just have this nagging feeling the core game is just not right
