Upcoming MMORPG "IMO" by com2us

[Nullroar]

Has anyone else had a chance to beta test this?
The game plays smoothly and intuitively and the bug-fixes have been surprisingly quick.

The auction system (especially the across-servers auctioning) is pretty comprehensive and there seems to be a strong place for pvp, as well.

Grouping, guilding, partying, chatting...it's all fluid and easy. Perhaps this is with the low-server strain of only a handful of players, and I can imagine general chat going crazy during peak hours, but so far it has the feel of a real, full-bodied MMORPG, a rare feat for the iphone.

I'm getting pumped!

I hadn't even heard of it prior to this thread. Is the game 1st person or isometric view? Is it fantasy or sci-fi? Any interesting details you can provide?

[Thunderclaw]

Yes, some more information would be nice.

Who are the developers?

The company is Com2us, here is the page that has a few attached screenshots of the game

From what I have played, the screenshots are entirely accurate.

Do not be fooled by the 5 or so move slots on the side, either - the talent/move tree in this game is the deepest of any I've seen on a portable device, and there are 4 different subsets of 5-move options, which only begin to cover the amount of moves available. PVP and battlefields are alive and well, the bosses are TOUGH - I mean TOUGH(!)...

It's a fantasy setting. At the moment there are three classes in beta - mage / warrior / ranger.
The mage class is the most fun, while the warrior is, surprisingly, the toughest by far. ATM, his stats are not yet "physical" enough to allow him to tank anything at low levels and survive, and he doesn't have the advantage of range like the mage and ranger do.

They are looking at price points and DLC. It feels just as vibrant as Graal, but with actual quests / abilities / customization / action. The amount of detail that goes into the weapons and equipment (they ofc change how your character looks) is pretty impressive, all things considered. This is a game to watch.

The enemies mob you a bit once you get out of the basic noob areas, but the connection to the server is fluid and and the use of the touch interface to select your enemies/quest responses is extremely accurate, while also relatively "intelligent."

[Thunderclaw]

Wow. This looks really good. I can't wait!

Any price estimation?

[Nullroar]

They are still gathering feedback with regard to price. It looks like it may be a priced release supported by DLC, rather than monthly fees, due to the large amount of optional DLC they seem to be preparing...but don't quote me on that.

You heard it here first folks! Nullroar has confirmed the pricing model!

[Nullroar]

I invited that, didn't I?

[Mr. Charley]

I invited that, didn't I?

Nah, I'm just playing.
You were just trying to be helpful and honest, and provide information at the same time. I'm assuming since your beta testing, you have a feel for what they plan on doing and I'm assuming they've asked for beta tester's feedback regarding pricing.

Actually, you know what, you did invite that, who am I kidding? LOL
