Sorry for the late reply, I didn't see any new posts in here (bad cookie). I am playing the beta and it is really cool.
It plays similar to fighting steel, but with some really cool changes. You steer in 3d view by selecting the path and right clicking to issue the order. You also right click to select target options. Right now it is nearest leader, free fire, or hold fire.
You also scroll around the view with your mouse, and can fly around the ships. Graphics were just updated to add some flying bits for shell hits. I like to see things fly off when I get a hit.
I am able to run it on my laptop with slightly degraded visuals. So it should play well on any desktop with a decent graphics card. Norm and crew are still fixing some bugs so the demo will not be out until it is ready.
