The Team of Imperia Online is proud to announce our long developed project:
Global Wars!It is our new game, that has been into the making for some 12 months now (and some 6 months prior to that for game design) and it is very much near completion. It is a completely new concept, with completely new engine and everything. It will not be anything like Imperia Online or Galactic Imperia, Global Wars has been developed by a separate team and is based on a completely new technology along with from the ground up different design. Some things will be familiar of course - after all it is still a strategy game, but the similarities end there...
For now it is just the homepage up, with 3 units revealed and as the time goes we are going to keep uploading new ones (they, as most of the art for the game, are ready) ... Also parts of the manual will get posted in the forum in the next couple of weeks as we prepare for the start of the beta (sometime before the end of March). The beta will most likely have two phases - one very closed one just to test the economic model, which will continue for about 2 weeks or so and then the battles will be turned on, which will continue for another 6-8 weeks...
Basically we have stayed true to our tradition in design, making things as real as possible, while using all the knowledge and experience we have acquired awhile running Imperia Online and combined that with new fresh ideas, new setting and a completely new architecture and technology... quite a mix, I must say...
This is really the biggest thing we have done since the start of Imperia Online - it is a very ambitious project that we really hope players will like as much as IO - the economy model is great, the looks, well lets just say: "One must see it to believe it!", the battle simulator is just superb - it took forever to formulate, because modern warfare is much, much more complicated than ancient and it has been quite a challenge, but the result is worthy of seeing! (I think some national armies don't have as good simulators
)
