    You know what would be a good idea (my opinion)?

    Make the online multiplayer free and the rest of the game an in-app purchase. That way it'll have a huge number of people playing online, yet loads of people would pay the in-app fee to play the story mode.

    This will also get rid of people pirating the app.

    Piracy will be a big problem for this game.

    I agree, but really wish every one could pay for games like this, i am very sure Gameloft could add more levels and maps if people are willing to pay more..

    but then they'd have to do some sort of in-app purchasing to support the online multiplayer, like Eliminate

    What about if In-App Purchases were More Campaign Chapters/Missions? That way, the Online Multiplayer would be fair for those who Cannot afford the In-App Purchases...

    Or make the In-App Purchases Superficial-Only, by that, I mean things like Armor Decals and Armor Carcasses, etc... but not things that may make the Gameplay of Payers VS Non-Payers Unbalanced, that'd end up just like Eliminate and be a total F*ck up...

    SlidetoPlay have two videos! Each longer than TouchArcade's!

    Couldn't Eli take longer than 2/3 minutes? Or was there some kind of limit for certain blogs/sites? :)

    The Gameloft press event was something else. I barely was able to snag what I did.

    I think people need to give Nova some credit. It's breaking off from the Halo formula with the powerups. :D
    I mean, that's awesome with the freezing people and the super speed upgrade. I'm way glad to hear about these! ;) It needs a upgrade where it slows down time though, which would be a combo of the freezing and super speed. :D

    Hey I don't know if this has been mentioned before, but this game will be released with both 4 player deathmatch (every man for himself)

    AND

    4 player Team Deathmatch. Which will presumably be 2 vs 2 (if Gameloft have got their math right.)

    According to Pocket Gamer's hands-on: http://www.pocketgamer.co.uk/r/iPhone/NOVA/news.asp?c=17016

    "N.O.V.A. will launch with deathmatch/team deathmatch modes playable online via wi-fi and peer-to-peer using Bluetooth."

    can we please stop asking the same question?
