I’m liking the game so far. Will one of the exclusive islands be an OM island where u get arks from HI to transfer them? That would be the best.

Same here Vespur. It’s a shame, but they have to make money somehow. The best thing you can do is wait for that free period they’re considering.

Some people can’t get it because their parents disallow it. I’m one of them. It’s a miracle I got Hunter Island without that gift card. : P

I was lucky when I got the game with a gift card, but my parents hate allowing me

to buy apps now a days, so I hope when the free period does role in they can give us a heads up

since I would love to try it out. I can always wait at this game though for a while. ^^

</div>

Well,the HI starters are diff from DIB,so id say probably.I have some questions too.

1.Will there be any monsters as rare as the dragons from DIB or HI?Im sure many people hate grinding for 10 hours for 1 dragon.

2.Will there be grades?Like S,A,B,C,D,E?It doesn’t take long to find a Frostjack,but an S one is incredibly annoying.

3.Will the monsters have different hp and stats for each?This would add variety,so when you got a monster,you didnt just have it,you’d always need a better one.Like,let’s say you want to catch monster A.You catch one with 34 hp at lvl 1.But you can catch monster A with an hp from 28-40.A 40 hp Monster A would be a lot rarer then a 29 hp one,obviously,and it’d be a good idea.Though,all egg monsters should have less then a wild one,and all OM monsters would have the same hp.

4.Will the new game be fun?(more a joke then anything,4 is just my lucky number 😛 )

As did I but apparently there was a higher demand for the cutesy rather than the heavy art. I think Cosmic Island will be a return to it though

1. Probably

2. They will be most likely scrapped according to ryan

3. Honestly, that would be almost as bad as the Bonus Actions. A lot of players might get mad because the variety would make the online unfair, because i bet if that were to happen the OM’s would always have the max stats. But it is a good idea in other ways.

4. Its the people who made HI and DIB of course itll be fun 🙂

@kab-kab, yes the starters will be different. We plan to have the transfer center in the beginning, but too early to tell. We are also planning to add an evolution to most rare monsters that you might want to take from HI. I plan to take this guy 🙂

![30B930AF30EA30FC30F330B730E730C330C82014](https://cdck-file-uploads-us1.s3.dualstack.us-west-2.amazonaws.com/flex015/uploads/neomonstersforum/original/2X/d/de2e2afc8b595d77eca0af4477b56d13de7a86bd.jpeg)&nbsp;&nbsp;

@Mozzy, &nbsp;

1. the general idea we have is to have conditions for them to appear instead of having to grind for a long time. Not 100% sure yet, its a bit too early.&nbsp;

2. No grades, people didn’t like bonus actions, so they are going away.&nbsp;

3. If we do something like this, it would have to happen for all monsters. Basically a range for HP, Attack, Defense etc for each monster, assigned randomly.&nbsp;

4. We will try our best to make it fun. We are incorporating a lot of ideas we got from you guys, so in theory it should be good, but you just don’t know until you develop and play through it. If we think it’s boring during alpha, we will scrap it.

@Chalna, as deadpool said, cosmic island will have the heavy art. but i don’t want to get into that here…too much on the plate right now. i will say that we are working on more evolution, so final stages will have a cooler look than the starting cutesy look. Below is one such example (the actual animation is more crisp, not sure why its blurred, youtube issue? )&nbsp;

Where’s Gondracorn? Here’s his 3D! AND IT’S SO GOOD. Already looks quite crisp! And smooth!

Kudos to you devs! It’s amazing! The third evo of cyroling looks awesome as well. Totally hyped for this game.
