I'll be keeping my eyes open for this but we just need more information.
It certainly won't play like STO because as far as I know they only know of 12 planets (colonies) that support life? and no idea where the cylon home world is. They'll be no seeking out new life to speak of.
I bet it's entirely PvP based.. yeah that makes most sense with the short development time. That could actually be pretty awesome in a hardcore way. I mean surely they won't make us fight Cylons in PvE then go fight them in PvP too? It'd get so dull.
Hm, maybe this won't work. We need more information :p
