Oh and if you just pay for a p2p account does that count as registering?

Im made because UN is going so great now...now it will go down hill and it will be AWEFUL.
Keep it how it is.
I dont like this Idea....

Everyone on these forums like it because they've already paid for Graal so nothing will happen to them. Thats why you hear all of these "Unixmad, this is a great idea!" and ****. Oh well, there goes the idea of the 'oldbies' comming back to Graal.

$15 a lifetime is not that much.
Thats just over the price of EQ a month so thas how cheap the game actually is.

SO, I have a p2p account with 80 some days left. I dont have to reregister until it runs out and when I do it will be $15 in US currency to reupgrade and I dont have to reupgrade till my account runs out. Now what about the playerworlds? Some playerworlds need their NPC Server to function correctly, will they loose that? And what about upcoming playerworlds, do they have a choice of NPC Server and monthly subscriptions like g2k1 and g2k2 will be? This is so confusing.

No no no.
I meant that the classic one will remain.
And I really doubt there will be a very dramatic decrease in players. Maybe there will be at first, but alot of players are like addicts, they will come back no matter what.

"Oldbies" who left Graal would never have came back anyway.

i think....

billing:
-15 dollars for upgrading to freeworld servers for lifetime (limited
time offer)
-upgrading to pay servers stays the same, montly rate.
playerworlds:
-un-upgreaded accs dont save your information (load-only accounts, like acc: 'guest' back in 1.2* days) [freeworlds]
-pay worlds still uses ghost mode for un-upgraded accs i beleive.
-freeworlds do not get an npc-server, but still players must pay to log on there and save their data.
-pay worlds get npc-server, and players pay to log on.

SaijinGohan 04-12-2002 03:42 AM

so if I upgrade now I am p2p forever?

No, If you are upgraded by June, you will stay upgraded for Playerworlds and classic forever.

No.
From my understanding when the new system is up upgraded accounts will be registered accounts meaning that theywon't have to pay the $15 to play the non p2p worlds (classic etc) but you will still have to pay the £39 (i think) to play 2k1, 2k2, andor etc.

SaijinGohan 04-12-2002 03:53 AM

k.. so confusing

SaijinGohan 04-12-2002 03:54 AM

omg its $1.77 us currency to upgrade your account but you can only create one!

Say goodbye to about 400 players that haven't upgraded.

Go shove your oldbies and freeloaders up your ass. Not only do p2p people think it’s a good idea but I have talked to others today that thought it was a good move, and they hate p2p. Go cry about graal (which you say you don’t play) somewhere else.

Bye Bye 400 freeloaders! Have a nice life, go find another free game to play.

vsignasv 04-12-2002 04:12 AM

Unixmad is my new god for the next 5 minutes. Thanks a ton.

albus777 04-12-2002 04:30 AM

when will this order over the phone thing be available?

G_yoshi 04-12-2002 04:31 AM

I think a some of you are getting confused...the lifetime access is for classic and playerworlds...you'll have to continue to pay a monthly rate for 2k1 and 2k2....For those that haven't upgraded since 2k1 came out or those that create new accounts can pay $15 for the lifetime access, or pay the monthly fee and get lifetime access plus access to 2k1 and 2k2.

As for playerworlds, unixmad said all restrictions will be removed which means even free servers will probably be allowed to use the p2p-only commands and possibly get an NPC server.

But all of this is my interpretation so take it with a grain of salt :)

Brad 04-12-2002 04:34 AM

Graal will not be graal anymore. New characters? Nomore old 2d graal. I dont want 3d graal, I can goto rag-na-rok for that. I play graal for what it is. I like the ideas of making everything p2p, but I hate the rest of this.

Lmao you think that cc fraud was a problem? Im gonna goto all my friends houses and make accts lol. j/p But that will happen

Correction 04-12-2002 04:44 AM

this will definately make kids think twice about getting their account banned now that they can't make as many classic accounts as they want

zell12 04-12-2002 05:00 AM

umm, like, how bout you get a better GFX Engine Unixmad? So were not lagging all the time x.x and don't make us all p2p, wtf are we going to do about re-doing everything to NPC Server scripting x.x

WHIPENIE4 04-12-2002 05:06 AM

(X-Mann)
So if I pay for 2002/2001, I will have a lifetime on Classic, or is that a no?

zell12 04-12-2002 05:06 AM

Well, he said if we already subscribed we are already registered for life... :D

no... only upgraded (p2p ones now) servers get npc-server, the classic servers (free ones now) get no npc-server.

zell12 04-12-2002 05:15 AM

But... Free Servers will be allowed to use gani's and everything that we wern't allowd to use though, right?

Brad 04-12-2002 05:21 AM

DO YOU NOT UNDERSTAND? IF YOU MAKE GRAAL A 3D GAME IT WILL SUCK. FREE SERVERS HAVING NPC SERVERS WILL SUCK. IT WILL ALL BE LIGHT EFX AND **** AND NOTHING WILL BE THE SAME. I HATE THIS IDEA.

zell12 04-12-2002 05:23 AM

I can't see Lights, and I bought a lamp, im a dumb ass...
ok, so anyway... :rolleyes:

Wow, a truely retarded post. This is a forum, you know, you are supposed to argue about stuff here. I said that thing about the oldbies because there trying to bring back this 'old graal' player world, in which they think all the oldbies would come flying back to Graal. I dont play Graal anymore, but, that doesnt mean I would never want to come back to it or vote for improvements I would like better etc. Stupid ***got.

HVOstroHS 04-12-2002 05:48 AM

This is great. It allows more people without the benefit of Credit Cards to register. Splendid job, but I'm still confused. Oh well, nothing new. Bai.

Admins 04-12-2002 05:51 AM

All playerworlds are part of 'Classic Graal', which means everyone
can play on them but your account will not be saved when not having registered or upgraded at least one time.
Playerworlds will not get an npcserver easily, probably only
when the playerworld has a lot of good scripters, not people that just want to try out some fancy npcserver script commands.

*does anime fist raise with jumpy thing*

Yeah! Delteria's a shoe-in! Jagen is a superb scripter, and our NAT's are top-notch! Don't get me started on the LAT's, either...

I can't imagine how much having a NPC server would help us! I can't wait!!!

_0AfTeRsHoCk0_ 04-12-2002 06:03 AM

Once again, this is fantastic. So right now from what I understand, people who have already subscribed to 2k1 will get to play Classic and the other PW's as a sort of "thank you" gift when their time ecxpires on the p2p playerworlds? That is sweet!

Also, please implement the voice chat system on 2k1 and 2k2, it would bring so many players back

Brad 04-12-2002 06:07 AM

I hate the voice system thing too. These ideas are ****.
