Vote Rogue for ETA, all your dreams will come true. (4srys)



My Idea:

Give everyone a Mp5, Era would have 400+ players constantly pking each other nonstop.

Who could complain?

graal itself is dying, so it's unlikely that you'll see any significant player count increases any time soon, no matter what you do.

For the computer version maybe that applies, but i think P2P will hit iPhone Classic eventually, and those players will go through the same thing we all did, and eventually fork up the cash !

I doubt it, free MMOs already exist for the iphone/ipod touch. I just think the players will migrate to other games. Graal has been decaying for years, the players cant increase because there isn't anyone to play the server. Unless the PC version is free with an item store or some other way to generate revenue, while still not limiting the players experience to much the game will die. I honestly think this will be a good thing though because it will force Stefan and Unix into a different marketing strategy which could help the game. I am thinking something along the lines of what Turbine did for their MMO or what SOE did with their station games. Besides Graal isn't fun now, you cant play a server like Era with 30 people.

On another note can I still not mention other MMO's names without getting my post deleted and an infraction?

Well I don't see Servers doing much to up their playercount.

They're making threads like this in an attempt to make something happen that will up the playercount.

[Venom_Fish]

And old? wtf

[Eclipse]

its not to expensive for old players because old players spent 30$ and have lifetime classic
but now its like 6000$ for 6 months

[iRedemption]

look at it from a new players point of view

1) They go to graalonline.com off of an advertisement, see the *** pink homepage with foxes and pigs dancing & running around with swords...
2) Even with the horrible website, this new player decides to download the game, and log onto Era because it has the most people.
3) Not knowing anything but what the guide menu presents, they try to buy a gun and kill.
4) Next, they find out that a decent gun to kill some of the better players in these big gang fights is worth about 100 hours of hard work

Yet they're still expected to buy gold membership at sixty something USD in the middle of all this?

[Venom_Fish]

Of course they are, if they were that dumb to do the latter. Whats stopping them from being dumb enough to pay? It worked so far

[Reese]

They really just need to go back to charging just $30 for an account

8 months of Gold is $30 USD. If they go all out and get the 8000 gralat pack, they can get 2 years for $78 USD.
