Player

Will you play as a pilot in the EA or can you choose what race you fly as?
Also, will there be multiple paths through the game?

well, there's several campaigns planned.. most have you flying a Starfury or similar, though there are others that don't.. Narn Centauri campaign for example.
As for the second question, I believe that mostly the campaigns planned are linear, though I do not know that for certain.. IIRC it is certainly possible within Freespace 2 to create non-linear campaigns.

Non-liner is much tougher. And its harder to create that many missions and maintain quality. Sure WC1 had plenty of branching missions but they were all the same basic things....we've got alot more diversity and structure here

You bet Icefire! I once tried to make non-linear campaign, I made 3 missions and then I lost my mind (it can be seen even today), I think I could try to make non-linear camp., but I'm not promising anything!

Yes FSW . Depends on the mission designer. In theory you can fly for every race in non-linear campaigns ,

.... but someone has to MAKE these campaigns.....

The most likely option for non-linear campaigns are having mission "trees" with the same missions except for the odd one or two that are different depending on mission outcomes. That way you can have different campaign structures without having to design more than a couple of extra missions.

When were done you'll have these ships to fly:

Aurora
Badger
Thunderbolt
Aardvark (non-cannon)
Nial
Sentri
Frazi
Gorith (Narn strike fighter, AoG)
Rutarian (Centauri strike fighter, AoG)
Sky Serpent
BlueStar

You'll also be able to pilot versions of the Lintira and probably the Narn Freighter (the one with weapons). There may also be a Brakiri fighter and other ships added from AoG so the number of player flyable ships will increase. If we do Dilgar stuff, also a Dilgar fighter and probably a much earlier StarFury varient. Time permitting.

So there will be plenty of flexibility for people to create their own missions and campaigns for those ships.

Please explain what the Aardvark will be. Bomber? Super-heavy uber-fighter? Hellcat knock-off?

Ain't Aadvark is a successor of Thunderbolt? It at least look like modified T-bolt.
