MO Facebook spam wrongly claims it's Free to Play (It's subscription based!)

I'm now playing Mortal Online!



Mortal Online

www.facebook.com Mortal Online is FREE to play! Join now and play with your friends.

 

Yet another misleading statement from these guys.  By friending them you allow them to write on your wall.  This is what they posted.  The game is NOT Free to play.  You have to buy the game AND pay a subscription.   This is utterly misleading!

 

So either they jumped the gun and are making it a F2P game or they are outright lying in order to drum up interest.

    Hmm, thats weird, sure its the offical MO channel and not just a fanboy or something messing around?

    If its the official channel i bet they either jumped the gun on it going F2P or they meant "Its FREE too play for 14 days"  and just misswrote abit, i doubt they would be straight out lying right in peoples faces (tough they have before, hehe)

     If it were the first time.. sure.. I would believe it was a simple accident.  As your last line says though, they have been caught before...

    The official response from Black Opal:

    While technically it is free to play, but only for a limited time, SV agrees with you and this is something that was planned to be reworded and will be changed probably on Monday. Requires some reworking from a third party though, hence the delay.

    Anyone can make a Mortal Online facebook page, and claim it is the offical thing.  Some like that happen to Rahm Emanuel before the Chicago major election this past year.

    If it's that complicated to change the wording on a Facebook page...

     Are you claiming that the Paratus guy is actually another account for Black Opal the Community Manager?

    It is not free to play.  A free trial is not the same as free to play.  Black Opal's response is ridiculous.

    What they meant is that you are free to play another game.

    They just worded it wrong, maybe it makes sense in chinese.
