Graal 3D (Only for VIPs)

Ok this is on the GraalOnline.com site:

"Graal 3D is targeted towards high end PC users and uses a very advanced 3D engine. Graal 3D will be available in 1st Quarter 2003 as a Preview to VIP Members More details will be available to the public once as we prepare the game for beta-testing."

So us VIP members who upgraded so we could enjoy this miss out on everything and basically had our money stollen from us?

This is not stuck we just wanted to finish PlayerWorld renting and new scripting engine before working on Graal3d.

About VIP it's only 19$ for a year and it give lot options including forums, PlayerWorld renting, Guilds, Testing of New Graal version ...

About Graal3D it was never announced to be reserved to VIP but more to be made as a preview first for VIP.

Great, now we can see Graal3d after this

Is Graal GBA still being planned out/being worked on?

The one you're thinking of probably is the old, old release.

I dunno, he's probably talking about the screenshots based on the tribes 2 engine...I don't like them either.

The problem is those who had gold already had forums, nobody uses guilds (well cant). And the other two arent that appealing to some, thats their concerns.

LoL, the Graal Beta 3 (the 3D one with characters that look like stefan's signature) is/was fun. I, somehow, got my hands on it ages ago but lost it ;X

actually I think it's leaning mroe towards the "stolen". No one should have upgraded until this was all complete,and the 3D was actually on the list. Here are my reasons for thnking this.

1.I knew it would take forever to make the Graal3D.I doubt it will be finished anytime soon.
2.Playerworld renting doesnt require VIP to buy,or to use so what does it have to do with the purchase of a VIP membership?
3.Guilds...Still havent been able to be created,or updated. So there's another loss for upgrading to VIP.
4.Testing of new graal version...what exactly is so good about that? Only thing that was different was a minor lag fix,and a different header bar.

The only good thing is the Forum access,and that cool VIP tag . I think you should have put future things for VIP's rather than an unreliable time set for things to be released. You also need to allow players to speak. This would boost player motivation to help you out more. Hire some GM's. I bet some would work for a little or no money. I know I would. I know you can full through though unixmad,you have before.

Actually, you need a vip/gold account to buy a playerworld..since you need one to log into graal.net

He's just saying that if you have gold, then there's currently no reason to get VIP

I don't see why you have VIP and Gold. Why not just have one, instead of trying to leech as much money off of customers as you can?

Instead of trying to find ways of getting more money off of the customers you have, i'd find ways to keep your customers happy, and attract new customers (like not abandoning 2k1 or classic, not having both VIP AND Gold...)

GraalOnline staff didnt abandoned Classic,and 2k1...Poor management on both fo the servers led to the fall,which led to players liking other more active management servers.

I think the extra $5 to have VIP included in my gold subscription was well worth the cool tag and any other feature(s) included. :-D As for you guys who paid $20...E> Sorry, I know...it sucks. Bring back guilds and Bhala's management, and all of Graal is happy. Then people can go back to having all sorts of fun...making guilds like "Sexy Crew"...and all the others.

People who bought VIP and VIP honestly have no right to complain. Everything about VIP was clearly stated and you are getting what you paid for, and you can't expect it all to happen on the dot and right this minute.

Agreed, unless many of the features are not present by the time the membership runs out

Yes, I agree here. Only in this instance would I be inclined to change my statement.

They aren't unreasonable to expect what was promised to them, however.
