Wow, a lot of work I'm impressed! :megaeek:

The new gui isn't all that though..

I like this. :D

How close is very close like in coming weeks?

Yeah, some very nice things there! Excellent stuff.

As am I. I am very excited about the new stuff! :D

Wow, removing all offline stuff huh? :(
Quite the opposite of GS2 support in the editor.

I love the GUIs!!

How many new colours/styles have been made?

The start button on the Valikorlia screenshot though...not liking that :x

P.s. http://www.graalonline.com/newslette...es_website.jpg <- 'Resource' is spelt wrong :( Also, 'More informations' should probably be, 'More information' as information doesn't have a plural.

About the developer guild thing...will it take over the current playerworld hosting scheme or will it co-incide...I like working alone for the most part :p.
If it does take over, will playerworlds remain as they are until they expire or will this new scheme take over straight away?

I KNEW there was a new website being made, I sensed it for some reason.

......

Too early for me to start complaining, but atleast Games World will be back...

Let's chill for a while, we'll see how it goes when it's released.

I like this already. The GUIs look MUCH sexier than they look currently.

Oh man, this will be huge for corruption/crime fighting if it actually happens.

Yay! I hope you will release it soon :D

Playerworlds Gold Subscription, as in, monthly fee for playerworlds now?

If true, RIP Graal.

Oh, P.S., that is the ugliest website I've ever seen. You took like 5 steps back, the current one is gorgeous. Just keep it updated.

Subscription scams? It is called a business. If a business does not make money, then said business will shut down. Cool it.

I like the way it looks. I hope they change the forums to match it. :)

Now now, don't degrade them they put alot of work into this. My opinion on this was that they spent too much time working on the website and things when it wasn't really needed. This new website doesn't really feel like regular Graal to me, it looks like some kiddy game. They should of just worked on the client more. Nethertheless good job.

When is the release date?

Dude, Shut up. They're updating as they go along. Got a problem? Get over it.

We have to pay to make the content for the game now? Words can not express.

Wait I don't get it. So Gold Accounts are seperate to each type of servers from Graal Kingdom Gold, Zone Gold, and Classic Gold. That means you have to pay three times the money just to play on all three of them?

What will happen to us VIP/Gold Accounts :X

Wait eum.. I am using v5 now and it's kinda.. not-working-proper -.-

Like having to pay to develop? Nice one.

It is replacing the playerworld renting, you had to pay for that before too :confused:

Well it's kind of vague, now it seems like we have to pay to get the dev tools? Or just to get the playerword? I'm not really following what we're paying for. If we're paying for dev tools, it's a lot different than having a server.

Exactly. If its replacing the pw renting, whats so wrong about that? But I want to know if there will still be lifetime accounts or atleast one playerworld thats free for everyone or which you can buy a lifetime subscription for. If not, I guess Graal wont live any longer :/

The prices for each aren't known. I'm not entirely sure that this is a good move since most people only play one server (especially only one gold server) and the price probably won't be $40 for each "type" of gold.

What do you mean by developer tools? We have to pay for level editor, RC, and graal shop?

The developer subscription goes hand in hand with the New playerworld hosting.

Exactly, having to pay for dev tools is a lot different than paying for a server. Anyone could go get the editor, graal shop and such and never dedicate themselves to a server, pay a dime, yet still contribute a lot. It's in a whole different league than paying to have your own server.

I think it's for people who don't work on a server, but want to develop skills in scripting and developing.

No new graal 3d movies :(

but I will still have to pay after it's expired. Oh and the developer tools being a cost. That will make most developers leave Graal :(. Stefan or Unix needs to give us deeper information on Accounts and such

That is for advertising the developer pack: you will get access to many tools. It is NOT for killing offline editing.

I just really wanna know, are people going to have to pay to make levels, make ganis and such if they don't work on a server?
If so, I feel that's kind of like having your employee pay you.
I mean, I can understand paying for a person to get a chunk of a server to script online stuff, but for stuff like gani's and making levels, that's a blow.

Several questions:
1. Zone and GK subscription. How much will they cost, and how long will they last?
2. Zone items for real munies? Mh...every damn items for real munies? Yes or no? (If so, I will quit Zone for sure.)
3. Can you reskin/remove that start bar? That one just wont fit with some server designs..

this bar with the start button looks totally ugly i hope we can turn it off :O looks like from a zylom childish game :O

They're Turning Graal In To Fairyland!! Run!!

Wait, from the looks of things people won't be able to buy their own servers anymore and instead will have to get a developer subscription and then find 4 other people with developer subscriptions. Yet Graal was making thousands of dollars from idiots buying servers that never went anywhere. Why are you making it harder for them to give their money to Graal?

Sometimes change is good for the future. I can't speak for others, but I am tired of looking at the same old stuff. It's boring.

Maybe they would like to see more quality servers...just my guess.

Something tells me he is a beta tester or something similiar.
