If your main goal is to release GtA as an individual entity I'd consider reading the above posts again and just think how realistic it is. My opinion is that Graal won't ever see it as a separate server to Classic. I have based my opinion on the above posts and the several (not so much) differences above.
Sorry if you see it differently. By all means, if you enjoy it keep doing it. I wouldn't stop doing something I enjoy- hence why I'm still here 20 years later. |
What about the fact that we already reached an agreement? Do you think it's honourable to arbitrarily withdraw the agreement and stop communicating? They could have at least apologised no?
Especially when you consider that we put in hundreds of hours work preparing the server with new content and systems for the launch, do you not find it despicable that no-one had the decency to feedback to me? I've had to literally go on witchhunts to find out what I have. Not that it's all about me, last year we had 10 - 25 players playing events around the clock despite remaining as a hidden server, there's a lot of disappointed players old and new who deserve a real answer. |
It depends what was said exactly. What I do know is you haven't heard in 18 months... I wouldn't expect anything else from it. After not hearing back within a couple months I'd have stopped and not continued until I had a response.
I could be wrong, I'm just giving you my opinion on what was said in this thread. |

My gut feeling was always that we've been stabbed in the back, but I still expected an honest conversation to bring closure to the matter as opposed to the usual "let's just ignore the big elephant in the room and hope it goes away by itself". With all the negativity which is circulating around lately, you'd think they'd make an attempt to deal with this amicably, something that I have made every attempt to do before ever speaking a word about it publicly. |

I'm shocked you can't see the potential that comes from a superior client that is PC Graal. It seems you're just looking at things the quick and easy way, which is unfortunate. |
Sorry if I've offended you.
Over the past few years I have seen the PC Client as a Development / Staff platform- I guess that's because I'm only focused on the iOS platform. I just don't see the value of developing the PC client- hence why I suggested moving servers to the iOS platform. I just asked a few of the iEra staff why they don't play PC-
A few said they would play PC if-
A couple that do play said they play because-

Once that server was essentially "deleted" from the public, the entire Unholy community left with it. That's like 100-150+ players (if you consider North American, European playerbase etc.). Graals Administration team and their attitude towards the situation was "Good riddance", "who cares". Either way Graal's PC version is going in either two directions. 1. It's going to get cleaned up. The client version will receive updates, bugs THAT DO EXIST will be addressed and fixed, and Graals PC community has a chance to grow and recover, and PWA's will actually do something for the greater good of the Player Worlds, rather than use an eraser. 2. It's going to continue to rot until it's completely dissolved, and people like Unixmad are going to claim that it's not getting neglected? Meanwhile you're here basically saying that anyone around here working on a client version server is wasting their time. Obviously someone like you who is getting paid to develop for iOS might not care so much about the alternative, I guess you're a company guy now. Hell, you're not really apart of this community anymore, and one could say that MD/Carlitto isn't either. Yet you guys have an impact on this place, and thus far it's been nothing but negative. If a plug is going to be pulled, why is it taking so long? I've been on the client, and I'm reading about people attempting to "revive" servers, and they are trying to put in work while the "higher ups" are putting all of their work into iOS. My point is, this place is done. The ones who have or had the opportunity to say or do something about it chose not to. Nothing but false hope, negativity and neglect. |

These are my views based on what I've observed. I won't lie, I'd rather be direct, honest and realistic. I have no input on the PC servers. I never said it's going to stop- these are my opinions; please don't assume these are the actions Graal has decided on what I've said. I'd be more than happy to help a server move to the iOS platform providing it has a unique game play- such as Kingdoms or Zodiac. |
rly guys
you know the real solution is to actually complete the whole cross-platform **** by letting people log onto the iservers on the normal client instead of having to use a browser. boom, pc is saved and has more players than it has ever had. wew |

Facebook / Web is a resource that already exists and doesn't require an unrealistic amount of effort to port PC servers to. As has been proven with Delteria and the original Classic Facebook server it provides a level of exposure to the game far higher than what can currently be achieved with the client. Would it not be interesting to see how much better the client would work as a development platform if and when it is also thriving as a game? Would it also not be interesting to see how much better PC Graal could work as a development platform if some of the suggestions regarding the website were put in to action? I could go on further with these points. Quote:
At this point they really have nothing to lose in giving control of PC Graal & access to make changes to someone who is passionate about it, but they have plenty to gain from it. |
Lol they are developing Era 3D but won't release Graal the Adventure...lmao what a troll.
|
tbh I've noticed player count decrease after Tim_Rocks stopped logging in :(

Era iPhone, Classic iPhone as well as Zone and Ol' West should be accessible through the Graal Client.
I have recently brought two players from Era PC to iEra for an annual tournament we're hosting and they really enjoyed the server. However, the FB Client as well as era.graalonline.com both have performance issues and weren't made for competitive gameplay - in other words: they're very bad. I have a hard time understanding the thought process behind not releasing the iServers for the Graal Client. FB-Client is horrible, there are many issues with it. If you've ever played on it, you know what I mean. That being said, I would really love to see unixmad release the iServers for the Graal Client. |
