ngmoco seems to have settled on a final name for their new shooter.
iPhone gaming powerhouse, ngmoco, has released a teaser site for their highly anticipated (right?) online FPS deathmatch game. There are two juicy videos, including a very informative infomercial on how their “power/credit” system will work. As it appears, you only have so much power for your suit per day. When you run out of power, you stop making credits for you kills, but can still play as “practice”. According to the video, you can then buy new power cells to re-charge your suit and start earning credits again. In-game purchases, anyone?
There aren’t any more details, so I don’t what “credits” do, but this certainly seems like a slick way to run a game like this. They get you hooked, and let you play without paying any sort of subscription fee, but force you to pay money if you want to play more than the allotted time. I’m assuming credits will allow you to buy upgrades and such in a in-game store. What do you guys think of this idea? Sounds to me like it could be entirely too addicting… meaning ngmoco are freaking geniuses.
