Ok, DawnTips wants to ask Jagex a few basic questions about Stellar Dawn. I was asked to get a list of questions started for them. I would like to hear from you guys, fellow fans of the upcoming game, and what you would like asked.

They will be trying to get an interview or a Q&A session setup as soon as they can.

List of Questions

• How many playable races will there be in Stellar Dawn?
  
• Are humans going to be a playable race?
  
• What made you decide to name the game Stellar Dawn?
  
• Would you be willing to give DawnTips some Stellar Dawn concept art that isn't on the Stellar Dawn site already?
  
• Will the world be as large as in RuneScape, or you will start with something smaller, and constantly upgrade it?

Here's a question:
-Please give us concept art, we want to see the races in the game

(OK, so not so much of a question)

Has this been confirmed for Stellar Dawn? We knew that they were scheduled for in MechScape but the races could have changed.

The guys at DawnTips will not accept anything that they have not seen posted on the Stellar Dawn site, or one of Jagex's social networking sites, to be true. So, I think that the number of races, and if one of them will be humans are good questions. It confirms things that we believe, but do not know.

As for your question Stanic, that is actually really good. I won't even reword it, I'll just copy and paste Great job! Keep them coming guys.

It has been reconfirmed a few days ago by a SD level designer, but things may change by the time the full game is released.

During the MechScape Project, the 'universe' was already as large as RuneScape. I believe at present Stellar Dawn may be around the size of RuneScape, but new updates will always make it larger.

[Schmidty102]

Yeah but according to Jagex MechScape was scrapped but they were going to use the engine. If they didn't like MechScape they would be redoing the world I would assume.

It would be nice if you found what Stellar Dawn forum that the race thing was confirmed in...

I sure hope that the Stellar Dawn world will start out at least the same size as RuneScape's is right now. It'd be pretty lame if it's smaller They're taking some of the areas they had wanted to put into MechScape and putting them into Stellar Dawn according to their FAQ. In there they say how the concept art is from MechScape, which is the art they're using to inspire their people to make areas in the SD universe.

The races were confirmed by a Jagex employee on Twitter, I believe the tweet has since been removed. It may have been out of place for him to reveal that information.

[Teady159]

The four species was posted by another fansite, but they don't have a source... Perhaps you can add the question if the races are legit...

[Schmidty102]

Will the beta have the full game, or just bits and pieces for testing?

How long will the beta period last?

[DarknessFalls]

Is there a tentative release date for the beta?

How about "Is the beta tentatively planned for 2010, or 2011? If 2011, what quarter are you currently shooting for?"

Mod MattyC recently said the beta should launch this Fall. I believe only part of the game will be playable during the beta as the full game is still not complete.

You're right, a better question now would be: "According to Jagex, please define fall."
