true... that's what you get when you just rip off 2001 and make it Free... people get bored faster...

Besides you couldn't earn anything... the only way is to PK...

Evildred144 · #3 01-31-2002, 12:25 PM

yet another free server.... down the drain.. the only free server i even look forward to right now is ViVi's Final Star

I know, after I quit it just went downhill, same
with Andor ... Hopefully some work i've been
helping Lord Helmut will help it draw some more
people ...

Evildred144 · #5 01-31-2002, 12:29 PM

Babylon looked like a very promising server too

Evildred144 · #6 01-31-2002, 12:34 PM

YES!!!!! WE SHOULD MERGE DELTERIA AND ELVEN LANDS!!!!!

Slaktmaster · #7 01-31-2002, 02:01 PM

Delteria isn't dead...

Evildred144 · #12 02-01-2002, 12:38 AM

i know its not dead but it would still be the ultimate server

_0AfTeRsHoCk0_ · #13 02-01-2002, 01:40 AM

Delteria isn't dead at all, it's one of the bigger servers after N-Pulse and UN and has good quality.
You know it;s not really fair, though, how good quality servers like Babylon all go out and die.. it just doesn't make sense

heh i played on it for a bit i explored everything and left nothing really good there

Sir_Gareth · #15 02-01-2002, 02:05 AM

But the problem is is that when I went on babylon as a free account, there were 72 ghosts waiting to get online
Stefan should take a look at how many ghosts are acculy waiting to get on a server,

zrpgp2p · #16 02-01-2002, 03:10 AM

The worst feature of graal is the non-p2p ghost wait mode thing. I hate that :grrr:

LiquidIce00 · #17 02-01-2002, 03:11 AM

people think cuzt hey got awesome scripts and levels and all that, that their playerworld will be the best out.
There is more to playerworld then content

First off, I never liked Elven Lands.... Second off, Delteria is doing extremely well since I.P. is gone and we have redesigned the server completely... and finally we get more people than many other playersworlds by ourself, so I don't know why we would want to join up with a playerworld of lesser quality; Elven Lands would just be getting a free ride.

lordhelmut · #19 02-01-2002, 05:00 AM

Ok well first off Babylon is far from dead. We have many projects. Some cannot be talked about to the public but I will show some screenshots of some stuff were working on.

For one Hunting is almost done. Its much better than any I have seen (the animals actually move). It gets very in depth and you can earn meat, leather, points etc. With points you can get the Long Bow or the Crossbow.

Also, Godspeed came on and said that we need some games and such so...I am making a Mortal Kombat type game that uses axes. I have just started it but its comming along great. We havent had a great expansion on the overworld because I have been redoing ugly (old) levels.

Although the overworld is not expanding rapidly, we are making another quest. Its more of a puzzle quest rather than a slash the baddies and get lost quest. Its comming along good and isnt to far from being done. We also have a new small quest up just to get an easy item.

The playerhouse system is done so you can add and remove tenants (Only a certain tenant to each room so money cant be stolen)

We are adding a mountain along the upper ridge of the overworld which will have the options of wine making (for money) 2 towns, and the Dark Kingdom (For the RPing part)

Heres some sample screenshots.

This is one for showing the meatbar and crossbow and deer for hunting

lordhelmut · #20 02-01-2002, 05:03 AM

Here is one of the Axe im making for the upcomming game

lordhelmut · #21 02-01-2002, 05:04 AM

Here is one of the Kuro (babylon pet) using attack.

lordhelmut · #22 02-01-2002, 05:06 AM

Here is one of the command Stroll that you can use to take control of the Kuro. Then lay a bomb

lordhelmut · #23 02-01-2002, 05:07 AM

Woops the screenshot above is being attacked by one of the baddies. Here is the one using the Kuro Attack

sac · #24 02-01-2002, 05:43 AM

you shopuld have put more stuiff up before you released it bc after the players played on it and quit they won't come back or know that there's new stuff and the newbies probably is going to go to the places with alot of people and stuff

lordhelmut · #25 02-01-2002, 06:05 AM

people choose to bad mouth Babylon. I get on and see a ton worse places like Rudora and things. Yes, anyways, I would rather have a PlayerCount of 20 (4 being staff) and have the players be nice and mature

Dustey · #26 02-01-2002, 06:05 AM

sorry helmut right now there arent to many peeps online but if u work on itit will go up cus te server is new....

but if it is dead i would say becuase the map is soo small and many thing are ripped

....

Yet another idea from 2001 .... HUNTING it good just hope it will b better

lordhelmut · #27 02-01-2002, 06:37 AM

Are you illiterate? I didnt barely understand that (reread it 3 times) I will try and respond. By being ripped you mean the PH's and the Kuros, they arent. I made the houses in the image of a real house. Instead of a large room with a bed and blocks and so on blocking the way. Its an actual house where people can live and stuff.

The Kuros are just pets. Unfortunately Kuros made by players and submitted sometimes look like bomys. We try not to pass them but if they look very good we cant not pass them because they have a round shape.

So please explain what you mean by ripoffs

So because Hunting has it I cant have it? Because it ties in with the Babylon theme but now I shouldnt use it because 2001 has it?

Lets go scan the PlayerWorlds for anything that has the same thing as 2001. I think I saw mining on...3/4ths of the PWs up! LETS SAY THEY COPY 2001!

Anyways, 2001's hunting sucks balls

LiquidIce00 · #29 02-01-2002, 06:51 AM

I think ideas are better.
if u make a pet that is somewhat like a bomy thats basically copying the "idea"
but coming up w/ unused ideas are hard these days

lordhelmut · #30 02-01-2002, 07:40 AM

Yea, so those birds or whatever that follow u around on UN are copying to (just pointing out were not alone here)

lordhelmut · #31 02-01-2002, 10:35 AM

Why did you guys all of a sudden stop posting once I put up some screenshots?

Faheria_LAT2 · #32 02-01-2002, 07:02 PM

I think Babylon is going along great. It has a lot more creativity then most player worlds out there currently. LordHelmut, the hunting system looks great and I can't wait to see this "Mortal kombat" game of yours. Keep up the good work.

Tin Man · #33 02-01-2002, 08:09 PM

Cool, i finaly get to see the axe that i made in action. Also the only reason why people say that kuros a ripped bomys because they havent used them. Most of the people are mad because they cant have kuros and decide to put down them. Also i dont remember but Babylon was sapposed to be labeled as under construction for a longer period then we had so thats why we have so little players because were still working.

Yeah LH its funny all the people stopped posting once you put up screen shots.

Yea TinMan is the creator of the GFX for the axe. He did a kickass job on it.

Kuros are nothing like Bomys and in my opinion a lot better.

Thanks Cohn

I think upcoming servers such as my own Asteria, and Omikon, which i co own, and Dolphonia, im game master :-). All these servers have at least one Graal Classic LAT and many that are working on it, such as Shaun, Owner of Dolphonia. Hes done alot of work on Dolphonia... Its better then before, and even before, many players were on it.

I believe Events would bring players to this server. Its Levels are built tremendously. Its the best levels i've ever seen. But its in need of Events, Events draw players toward the servers.

so true
