V6??
 
Ok, so I just read like 3234236534 posts about the iphone and graal. It appears that v6 will include the ability for pc to play along with iphone users. That would be request #1.

#2, advertise SOMEWHERE, SOMEHOW for pc graal on the iphone, even if its a link to the graal website, and change the g-d website for one. ****, I will make a better looking website for graal if you want, and include stuff for the iphone and pc. Keep "Graal" as 1 community, even if it is on 2 different pieces of hardware (e.g. sharing the forums, downloading the iphone AND pc software from the site (or at least a link to the app store from the site for iphone).

#3, please, be smart about this. Graal on pc is so depressing sometimes its unreal. I just logged on to RC and it says iphone has 1106 users. SERIOUSLY? There's like 155 pc users total right now. Keep the people who have been buying those completely expensive classic accounts, then gold accounts, then servers happy to and try to bring in some new stuff. We've held up graal since it died in like 2005 and a small, close-knit community. Please do not leave us out in the dark. Anyways, ranted on, the smart thing would be if you want to continue to have a pc graal that doesnt slowly die away for good, advertise. Start with the iphone, go from there.

Also to ask; Stefan was taling about needing to release v6 soon in december 2009. Its May 2010 now, and I'm sure we've probably been in v5 for like 5 years so ... what's going on? When is it going to be released?

v6 is not yet ready for release, if you take a quick peek at the bug report threads you can plainly see this.

i would much rather wait for a refined release as opposed to a bug-ridden one. :)

Just did after my post. Feel dumb.

Any way to get in beta testing for it? Or was that selective?

Crono 05-02-2010 08:02 PM

Skyld selected people but I think he said he has enough beta testers. :)

sssssssssss 05-02-2010 08:03 PM

Oh damn. Well I still have #2 and #3 up there in my first post. :/

Fulg0reSama 05-02-2010 08:57 PM

I support #2 and #3 big time. More 3 than 2 but yeah.

Deas_Voice 05-02-2010 09:08 PM

i dont think i ever saw adds outside of graal...
so i support #2, but i dont think pc players should be able to go on iGraal from pc..

i'm wondering what's going on with v6, haven't had a new bug-fix update released for a while now... losing focus perhaps?

Last I checked there was already a link to graalonline.com in the app, and I've heard that anything more would violate Apple's ToA.

To be honest, I don't think advertising should take priority over fixing the problems that are making current customers leave.

Crono 05-02-2010 09:22 PM

pc graal doesnt need advertising, it needs to improve first to have something to actually advertise

sssssssssss 05-02-2010 09:47 PM

Graal does need advertising. Also it would probably be a good idea to make a "free" server. Graal is dying, period. Has been for a long time, current players, like all my recent friends and I, constantly keep quitting, with fewer coming back, still. So there IS a need for advertising.

Graal does have something to advertise, it could be used as a game engine

sssssssssss 05-02-2010 10:00 PM

All I can say is you can't expect an update, as good as I've heard it is so far, to bring back players. Most players leave b/c other players leave, or the cost. Hence, make a more complicated way to get to gold, and leave classic free, and drop the **** that is still in dev. Era is completely good enough to be gold imo. Make restrictions on how many bs servers there are. The game has to look after itself, so graal doesnt really need 2342388582 era copies in dev. Just an idea.

As for advertising. Holy crap, upload some pos trailers about graal on youtube. Go back to mmo generic sites that talk about mmo's, and talk about v6, whats coming up, ect. Post about it on the graal page, make a news page. Some of us, and especially new people, would probably like that I would imagine to be kept up to date. Things like that. Its all free for the most part besides a little bit of time.

If they're going to go the game engine route, then they need to drop the Zelda fan-boy look. As it is now, I consider Graal a game first, engine second.

Perhaps the Iphone Graal is still a game, the PC Graal isn't anymore.

Holy crap, I'd do it myself even if i was a freakin pwa...

people are missing the point completely.
