For one thing, Ambrosia would have no way of keeping track of all the
plugins due to lack of a large workforce. Nova registrations anyone?=0D
Yes, it would be fun, but not very practical for a company like Ambrosia.=

up all hope. Ambrosia had said before that they wouldn't make any Windows
versions of their games but EV : Nova is being ported to Windows. Of cour=

it isn't by Ambrosia so they have thus far kept true to their word, but i=

is a step.=0D
If you really want something like a Massive Multiplayer Online EV, wait f=

and get Star Wars : Galaxies which looks really nice and since it is set =

the Sci-Fi world of Star Wars has some similarties as EV, such as the spa=

it shouldn't get to boring.=0D
Really, please, as has been mentioned before this topic has been talked t=
