Crono can vouch for me, my reaction to playing it whilst Stefan was on RC was immense

Can't wait to try it :P

You mean "Graal Era iPhone Facebook", because it isn't a facebook version of the original server but the iPhone server. :asleep:

The game runs quite nice on Facebook. I am very excited to see the possibilities of Graal on Facebook. I think it opens up a lot more opportunity to developers.

Complain to stefan and unixmad to get rid of PC's and graal#s and observer, and make it so people can actually name their "account name".
If we get enough people on board I bet it could work

Like what? I hardly think it's going to be groundbreaking, especially not after the PC client has gone so long itself without any exciting possibilities and numerous opportunities.

totally lost cause though :noob:

Is there any builds/clients of graal3d left?
Or videos?
I would love to see what it was. I can't find any footage of it unfortunately, only photos.

Uhh.....
Look at companies that own games like epic pet wars or any of those games, that are made on iphone, then made for web and facebook...
They start at a few thousand people active then go into the 50k+ people active when the web version is released.
All they have to do is advertise once the facebook version is released, using facebook ads, and soon they'll have more than 10 thousand new people in the first week, guaranteed.

The only one of those companies that's even worth mentioning is Zynga. And they are hardly well off in terms of legitimate game companies. Just because their products are called "games" doesn't mean that's the sort of model game designers should follow. The only type of people who would be interested in using their example is, well, the ones more interested in getting as much money with as little effort as possible.

So the amazing benefits Graal will reap from this is... something that it could've gotten years ago with a little advertisement?

Exactly.
They haven't advertised.
I've never seen a graal advertisement in the three years I've known about it.
Only thing that brought me to graal was the thread made in toucharcade back in november 2009 that appeared out of nowhere, saying the game was released for iphone. I instantly recognized it when I played it, down to the music. It felt extremely nostalgic.
Which then made me have a nostalgia attack, reminding me of 7 year old me playing it (classic server) at a friend's house in 2001.
The only thing I remember was trolling people with the hammer, finding it funny when it squished them.

+ if they use facebook's "facebook credits" for buying gralats, customization packs, house packs ect, they will make a truckload of cash from it, as facebook credits cards are as common in places as walgreens/CVS as a itunes card now.

And who's to say it will be advertised on Facebook anyway?

Exactly.

But the last questions I have about all of this new stuff are
1. Will I able to sync my facebook, graal account, and ipod in some way, so I can log onto any of them from anywhere
2. Will graal#'s be scrapped so it can be eaiser to link accounts, and just let everyone have a community name? Having 10,000+ pc:#'s/graal#'s running around would be annoying as hell if you were playing from a PC.
Edit:
3. oh and will GraalV6 be able to log onto era iphone and classic iphone?

Zeross 03-23-2011 03:24 AM

I can't wait to try facebook.
