What? How? The PC is superior in every aspect unless you want to be playing Graal while on the tram or hanging with friends.

PSP version would be neat.

There is getAcceleratorAxis(0 or 1 or 2), can be used like this:

PHP Code:


			
xaxis = -(getangle(getAcceleratorAxis(0), getAcceleratorAxis(1)) - pi);

yaxis = getAcceleratorAxis(2);

I wish

EDIT: Didn't see the second part of the question. We plan to make it more arcade-style, meaning that rather than mining for money, for example, you kill people. It will be based much more on a "pick it up and play" game style, meaning that you don't have to play it a lot to enjoy it. We'll have gangs (parties) that anybody can create, and bases that can be taken. We'll have things like leaderboards as well to promote PKing.

Sounds more like "make the rich richer and the poor poorer" to me.

There still has to be jobs, or else people that just started will make no money at all because the players who've been playing longer will have the money and strong weapons, as opposed to the weapon weapons the new players have.

There is no economy, so no. It's based more on personal achievement. The goal is to get every item. The competition will be based on gangs/parties, events, and on PKing leaderboards, not on the economy.

This doesn't seem to work.

12171217 · #11 12-31-2009, 05:04 PM

Well you just think of everything, don't you?

Now I want to experiment with it more :/

Writing something like verlet physics in GS2 and waving my iPhone like a madman would be a joy.

DustyPorViva · #12 12-31-2009, 08:36 PM

Should just have weapon drops scattered around, and make players pay for ammo.

12171217 · #14 12-31-2009, 11:02 PM

That sounds fine.

An unlockable system like the Modern Warfare series seems to be the desired approach, then?

To be honest, I find Era's economy to be the most entertaining part of the server. I don't PK that much, trading is quite simply fun, I'm sure other people feel the same.

WarLord2004 · #15 01-01-2010, 12:41 AM

Yea a psp version would be very cool.. Since it's more portable friendly then a iphone >.< I hate touch screen stuff while playing a game..

But then again am not sure if the terms would meet for sony gaming inc.

For one it would be an issue cause sony would want to sell the game for a high price. Unless they add it to a psn store.

But then again you can make a homebrew version of it

for custom firmware.. But the only issue is i have not yet seen any homebrew games that connects to wifi.

mabey i'll post up something on pspupdates and see if anyone can port iphone app to psp >.<

12171217 · #16 01-01-2010, 01:08 AM

Cobalt Runner uses wifi.

But a PSP version would never work; too litle RAM, weaker CPU.

SKJF91 · #17 01-01-2010, 03:41 PM

New Idea: Private sparring, maybe in the main sparring room the icon to join a spar would still exist and you'd get warped in with another player to an instance for sparring with one other player only with no viewers. The second the rooms hit about 8-10 players, I get lag bursts as sparring. Another good idea could be levels limited to 10 players maybe.

SKJF91 · #18 01-01-2010, 11:29 PM

Instance sparring rooms please

Loriel · #19 01-02-2010, 12:08 AM

Just make bullets travel all the way within a single frame and avoid the whole debate.

And it all goes back to a custom bullet handler.

I did that to my bullet handler, there was a very fast moving bullet tracer, but it was just for effect.

Vima · #21 01-04-2010, 07:03 PM

How much MB would Graal take if I play it for lets say 15 minutes on an Iphone?

Vima · #22 01-06-2010, 04:53 PM

I have another question will Graal in the future be available for Googles nexus?

unixmad · #23 01-06-2010, 06:59 PM

We have already a version of Graal working on Android so should be possible to port to Google nexus one.

You know, the majority of Graal players use a Windows OS. And Stefan keeps telling us that the Windows Version of v6 is not quite ready yet. Why don't you focus on that first? I don't think it's worth it to work on exotic ports like GBA (

) or Android.

The Linux graal client still monopolises the sound card, the installer never really worked at all and the Linux RC just tried to upload my entire home directory for some reason. Get in line

Darlene159 · #28 01-06-2010, 07:20 PM

I am gonna play the lottery, and hopefully win enough to buy an iphone and the internet on my phone....lol

I think this was a great idea for Graal.

Rufus · #29 01-06-2010, 08:37 PM

A guild pack looks like it would go down a treat. Expand the north and re-introduce MoD (guild) fort with that perhaps?

Most of my fond memories of Classic include MoD fort.
It kind of went downhill when they added the 5 other forts though.

Rufus · #31 01-10-2010, 05:38 PM

This is pretty tragic, why is MoD Fort near Master Li's now?

For better balancing the 3 planned forts so that they are not all in the west.

Can't until v6. iphone is running a special v6, which means things that work for them won't work for PC's(bombs and arrows, for example). It was very apparent when it was first opened, arrows were really buggy(about 20 arrows constantly flew around the levels with no one firing them).

The PC has such a significant advantage over the iPhone, it would ruin any kind of PvP experience for the iPhone. I.e: In a spar you can hit them and already be on the other side of them before they're finished getting knocked back.

I believe he plans to when v6 is released though, to try to get the two communities more involved(viral marketing sort of thing?).
