Ybarra talked about the various locations that are being considered for the game. Of course planet travel will be available in the game via the Stargate so instancing will be a part of the game. However, each instance will likely be large and will even cover things like the surface of an airless moon or being near a black hole. Alien civilizations, extinct and current, will be a part of the game and both aliens from the TV show as well as new aliens and enemies will be a part of the game. Some locations that will place entirely in space craft (people familiar with the TV series know that some races have some massive ships) and there are plans for players to have their own space ships as well

Ybarra also talked about the player types, including squads for the Stargate teams, along with aliens like the Jaffa and other races. Scientists, pilots, alien engineers, and more are being considered for the character types.

While the game will have combat, Ybarra also said there will be a lot of non-combat activities, such as mining, contruction of devices like defenses and more. Crafting are also planned for Stargate Worlds along with trading between players and planets along with smuggling.

Combat will be based on the four player squad based that people familar with theStargate SG-1 TV show are used to. Ybarra said, "Combat will be quite brutal in this game," and said that stealth and cover will be a high priority in any combat, along with counter-measures and more.

Community tools for things like guilds are a major priority with things like a guild leveling system. There are even things like server competitions where players in each server will battle other servers in tasks
