Graal Forums - Payerworld First Impressions

Note: Worlds which do not allow login at all not listed. These are not flames, these are constructive critiques.

Alvadore: Lots of unfinished levels which are very...square. I've said it before and I will say it again, if you aren't going to put a link, don't put an open door.

Archaic: I always like to see a good UC screen. It shows that the staff understand that unfinished good levels are still bad levels. It also makes me want to check back later. On the oither hand, those light effects look very familiar; I think they must be public domain or something.

Area 51: This applies to all servers, but this one I saw it first. Do not use the provided onlinestartlocal, yuck. And that login sign shows on playerenters, not actionplayeronline.

Arid Haven: I know that this isn't a payerworld, but I really like this UC screen, and I wanted to mention that I have the top score on it muahahaha.

Asgard: Ok UC level, but not great. And what is that weird lighteffect on the water?

Athania: I like to see a few toys to play with when going on a UC area, it means you understand there is more to gameplay than pk. However, what is up with the invisible walls?

Aura: Ouch. Don't tell us to say /staff then not have it work. Secondly, woah, where did the house go when I went outside?

Beyond Force: Again unlinked doors=bad. Also, keep in mind many people disable html in their PMs. Also, no NPCs of which to speak. In other words, nothing to do but PK

Celestia Reborn: Boring UC levels with nothing to do but PK. I don't like how those two guards have overlapping chat text.

Chaos Faction: It seems ominous to me that the very first NPCw I encountered was the same old 2k1 style mining. On the up side, I like that the UC area has a map.

Colosso: Tile errors and unlinked open doors. No NPCs of any sort.

Cryptic Dunes: What the? Why am I getting a message intended for "Zal." Come on, at least throw on a #a check guys. And there is another unlinked open door.

Dark Diamond: Empty news npc, and oh, look an empty green gmap...

DreamScape: YES! New sign/q menu graphics. A good sign. Although there is that unlinked staircase in the start house and some odd usage of tiles.

Elven Lands: This is a personal opinion but I have always preferred chat color setting to those boxes. All the tiling is the basic stuff nothing new. There is that cathedral without back.

Enigma Graal: *sigh* Still the same old server from the looks of it. I got bored of it back in the days of the DemonLords. Although, I do like that you have some new mobs.

Faldur: Stationary waterfalls, yuck, This an old Graalian problem, but the word is Tailor. Ehm, need a head on that mirror. On the bright side, I like that GUI. Oh, and, it looks very unprofessional to warp players past an arch when you could put a dontblock and drawoverplayer image.

Feudal Nations: I am intrigued by that wavy GUI bar. Very unique, but it looks like the background is getting stuck. Again Unlinked open door.

Futura: I like the tileset, but the NPCw's need a little work. The showimgs are flickering.

Galeon: Yay! Another Deutsche server. I'd like to see more servers in languages besides English. Also, I am liking the mouse driven menu system. To call upon my limited German vocabulary, I would say this server has the potential to be ausgezeichnet.

Gate of Chaos: One word, "Graalinians?" The levels are VERY square, but I like those little fireflies.

Gileada: I like the creation system, but the player should be hidden until you get to body design. Also, I really don't like the way they make you use arrow keys to put in your name. keycode is your friend. Nice GUI. Yay, mouse driven menu.

Graal 3000: I seem to be not allowed to leave this little pen...

Hartland: Eh, kinda bland UC screen, and the serverwarp seems like overkill.

Laysuf: Ouch, make your current weapon shower hide -weapons. Levels are interesting.

Medieval Graal: Fear the headbobbing, lol. (Soulblade: Is it me or do those look like your forest lights?)

Nolavario: It's ok, but nothing great, and lots of unlinked open doors.

Rastic: Ok everything, nothing unique.

Renewal: Ugh! default onlinestartlocal and just a serverwarp.

Sanstrata: Doesn't look anything like the original sanstra, which is ok, I guess, but why keep the name? Again close those unlinked doors.

Shifter: I am guessing the tileset is not done.

Soaketh: Yuck, single level with a ton of unlinked open doors.

Tribulation: Sure, I am biased, but I really think a spiffy UC screen is the way to go.

Twisted Empires: Isn't it possible to get Stefan or someone to upload your tileset if it is too big? I like the tents.

Waves: Um, those chairs need perspective work.

Zeliactic: Again, spiff up the UC screen, and yhou don't really need a server warp.

Zemi: Nice! I love those mouse driven menus, especially when you can move it around. Nice news system.

Zenkou: Again, the word is tailor. Also, there are those same light swirls I saw on Archaic. Public domain? Really empty overworld better to just have a small UC area.

Zion: There are those funky forest lights again. Not much to do here.
