for the love of God, please stop this F2P non-sense. It's ruining iOS gaming as a whole, and will bring back the days of PSP and DS! I moved away from those because the iPhone and iPad were better for mobile gaming.

Now it's being ruined!

Fishlabs is a well respected dev, so im not sure how im going to react after reading about this new game.
Yeah i'm in two minds about that. On one hand you can't build a community with a hefty price tag (or sometimes even with a price tag) so for an mmo it's quite problematic. But on the other hand when you think about IAP in a strategy game you can probably guess that you'll be able to bypass any timer or even buy some currencies and this will lead to a Pay to win game. I don't really see how but I hope they'll nail the freemium aspect.

Damn... I'm still hoping that they will port Deep: submarine odyssey to iOS. That was an epic game.

Regarding the F2P model. Before hating the game just because of the F2P model, I'll wait a bit and see. It's really hard to get a big community on a game that is not free these days. Let's just see how they'll implement the IAPs.
