I have been dying to get this game as I am a huge fan. When(how) will I be able to get my hands on a copy?

[/indent]Since we are self-publishing this one (like with did with BCM back in 2001), we're still working with the production and the retailers etc. Once it hits the streets, I'll post about it here.
Currently, since this is the last in the series, there are no plans to make it a digital distribution release. Of course if this changes, you'll know about it.

I'm totally excited about this product, especially in boxed format.
This version will renew my love for the series. It's been about a year since I have played BC/UC.
Congratulations for getting a new product out the door.

Derek,
I am about to ask a stupid question so please bear with me. I was reading the info pdf and it says that there are graphics enhancements. Are they new enhancements past the UC:SE that i just bought?
I already own most of those games and am wondering if the graphics and engine enhancements are noticable enough and worth getting over the game i jsut got.
Thank you for your patience.

Are the new FPS models and asset enhancements in UC:CE only?

Those enhancements were carried over from UCSE. You wouldn't notice them in UCCE.
If you have UCSE, unless you want ALL the games in the series and for nostalgia's sake, I can't think of any reason for you to buy UCCE.
Besides, its the last time you'll ever seen space games of this scope again. So that might be an incentive. Dunno. YMMV.

Thank you SC for all your years of production!

I'm taking that BCNG is only a whisper now? I know you said it wouldn't be before 2012, but was that the final axe in its skull? Or should we expect something different for BCNG? (Different is good.)

BCNG will probably come about some day. But as I said before, not before 2012 at the earliest.

Would it be possible to allow UCSE & UCCE to play together on MP?

Yes, thats how it works. The server will see UCCE as UCSE and vice versa; as long as the version numbers are the same (which they are in the mp client).

No, because UCCE has scenarios that UCSE does not.

The local Fry's carries Battlecruiser 3000 gold but that is about it. I'm guessing they'll carry UCCE.
