Needs Improvements - But Good

I like the new client, especially since the previous one barely ran on Windows Vista. I've not encountered any problems so far, aside from the annoyances with the player list, and the aesthetically unpleasant pink login screen (sort of fun, though).

Who else agrees?

I, for one, REALLY like the website. I don't know, it just seems to fit graal a lot better. The old website was too serious in my opinion, especially given the nature of Graal. This one is much more fun and organized.

However, I hate the playerlist as it is right now.

Also, I really dislike not being able to open windows overtop of my graal game.

What do you mean exactly?

He dislikes the stay-on-top feature.

Also, I just wanted to say - I love how it fades in after the server list and such. Very nice effect.

Yeah, I love that fade effect too. I also love the dockable playerlist, the video capture, and the start bar. It has it's glitches (particularly the fact then the options that come up when you right click a player in the playerlist closes about .5 seconds later), and video capture can be a bit laggy, but overall it's very nice. But I'm unsure that it really needed a completely new graal version, as most of the changes were based outside of the game itself.

I also love the new website though, even if most people don't. I am, however, very disappointed that it seems that the browser client runs off the executable, so it's basically a worthless addition.

But I'm pleased that it seems that you can still use the old playerworld renting system.

Yeah, I don't like how the playerlist stays over everything else. If I double click on a name to PM them, I often have to move the playerlist to get to my PM. Small, but annoying just the same.

Hm, I've never had that problem with PMs yet. =o
