Ovidion
Hello,
This is my first time posting, although I've been lurking through these forums for the past few months as part of market research for an MMO project I'm currently working on (this forum in particular has given me some GREAT information).
Ovidion is a project that I have been developing for about 6 months, after 3 months of research and design. The goal of this project is to create the next generation of MMO, something a step beyond anything that's been done before. I'm attempting to incorporate a variety of different elements into the game - FPS, TPS, RPG, and RTS; as well as new concepts such as an infinite sized gaming world and "classless" character profession system.
This is actually my second title in the online gaming genre - I developed a fairly successful graphical MUD over 10 years ago, one of the very first of its kind actually. Ovidion draws from a wealth of experience and knowledge I earned during those years, from successes and mistakes alike.
As far as genre goes, Ovidion leans most strongly towards sci-fi, although the premise is based on the fact that the game setting occurs between 500,000 - 2,000,000 years from present day.
I'd love to get some activity going on the website, since as of now maybe 6 people in the entire world even know about it (and I'm beginning to feel like a schizophrenic talking to myself on the forums). I'm hoping to start building up a community to draw suggestions and input from, as this will be invaluable during the development phase of the game. And with Alpha 4-6 months away I'm going to need candidates for testing.
Take a look, and feel free to join the forums if you'd like to post your suggestions and input. This a great opportunity for anyone that's interested in contributing ideas to a game that's currently under development.
Thanks for reading and for all of the great information these forums have provided!

Seems like a great project your working on. You should keep up the good work. Try to make some advertising about your game that will help. There are many ways for you to advertise, I'm sure you're smart enough to find out a way to advertise yourself. Keep up the good work and I hope to hear from you pretty soon.
PS: you could also post this message in the Pub at MMORPG.com imo
I appreciate the advice. I'm not necessarily looking to advertise at the moment, since the game hasn't yet reached its Alpha release milestone. I'm just looking to let people know it's out there for now (since almost no-one knew of its existence before this post). I really appreciate the feedback and those of you who have offered input!
