Easier said than done. That's not a reasonable suggestion, though I do agree that it could our 'economy' could be... optimised.

Please try and keep your feedback within the scope of the 'local' Graal Era staff. We do not have the authority to change pricing packages nor alter the economy to a large degree.

Sorry, I knew it was a long shot but I wasn't sure who took care of it or how it would be done. Maybe in small increments, by buffing jobs (which I think really need to be done).

Maybe you could design a place where players could play their own events without having to wait for them to be hosted by an administrator or if friends want to see who is better at what event. No event coins need to be given, just something else to do on the "casual aspect" of the game.

Make jobs less tedious, if you want high priced guns then increase the money given from jobs.

Hmm Lazerlatte said most of the good points. I wouldn't recommend EC for daily rewards every time but I do think a daily rewards system should be in here. Ya know have a daily task that you complete and you win gralats. The amount increased for each consective day of 7 days. Maybe the 7th day you get an EC??

Myst 12-12-2014 12:53 AM

If the tasks are hard enough ec or pieces should be rewarded. People are always saying how it should be earned, and through this method it could be earned. Not everyone (including myself) are good at events, and even if we are it's become a very hard feat to earn ec this way nowadays with the player count this high and the players attending events higher.

Hello everyone.

I'm aware that not everyone here is overjoyed with Era.
I want to make a comprehensive list of reasonable complaints about the server so we can analyse them and work on resolving any issues players have with the server.

When I say 'reasonable complaints' I mean well thought out & rational sentences that describe a problem you have with Graal Era. If you've been fired from Era or you just don't like modern servers here isn't the place to talk about it.

So please, tell me what you think the problems are with Graal Era :)

My major gripe is how useless explosives are. They do little damage, have little range, and don't really leave behind any after-effects. To give an example, I used a one of the aloha snackbar explosives, the PIV. On iEra the explosive range on it was just horrible and not only did it barely hit anyone near it, but it also did piss-poor damage with nothing left behind for after damage. Now look at Era's PIV and you'll see that it now only has an insanely huge explosive radius, but it deals around 60-80 damage (max is 100 for beginners and up to 150 for those with many kills) and when it explodes, it leaves behind a lot of flames for after-damage. Mines also have a much bigger explosive radius.

My other gripe is just how piss-poor the staff team is when it comes to decisions that affect that gameplay better, but yet revert it due to people complaining that their infinity +1 gun now takes 2 bullets to kill instead of 1. Management seriously needs to grow a god damn back bone and stick with decisions that fix ****.

Third, the lack of actual weapons that should be able to match higher tiers guns that cannot be bought with shekels acquired by Mommy's credit card. Yet again, take a look at Era. On Era, you can purchase weapons that are actually pretty amazing and handle greatly. The only way to purchase them directly is by winning events or getting lucky with the contents of a quest chest

Lastly, the fact that they more or less force you to buy gralats to get most of the higher tier stuff, unless you want to spend longer than a month working non-stop. I mean, I understand that it's a business and it needs those to make money, but when it's little things like that which are used to scrounge as much money out of a player as possible, then it's just in poor taste.


tl;dr iEra is utter trash that tries to wring out as much money out of its player base as possible and ignores balance fixes due to said fixation on Mah Shekels!

I do agree with Cookie on how useless explosives are.

Thank you, that's something we'll discuss after the Christmas development cycle.

Your vitriolic comments are not needed. You demean yourself.

To address your concerns, I will add the explosives issue to my list.

All of the issues with guns, gun pricing, and explosives are solely the domain of the Guns Admin team.

Edit: Pretty sure the job systems and gralat issues have to be approved by Unixmad. I can't promise that they'll be reviewed, but I'll add them to the list anyway. It's unlikely that there'll be any change though.

Funny, it seems like that's pretty far from the case considering your GA has tried to balance weapons and yet, due to people whining about their Infinity +1 losing a tiny bit of clip or power, it was reverted.

Seriously, ya'll need a damn backbone.

I assure you that this is the case. The only person who may have influence over guns issues would be Storm Myste.

Boy oh boy, where to begin?

Maybe first of all, the whole identify bull****. I had my yahoo hacked and my account was stolen. Even after I verify it's mine through yahoo and everything, I STILL don't have my account back (This account had a Souizen on it, was quite valuable to me), and yet just because you've "discontinued" email transfers/merges, I can't get my account I spent money on.

Explosives are USELESS. Guns suck on the game because 12 year olds cry and threaten to sue Eurocenter when they lose 1 round in their clip.

What else? Should I mention the incompetence of the development team? Come on guys, you have nearly three times the number of developers as Era PC and yet you guys lack so hardcore in terms of content. We made a brand new gmap that players are LOVING in about three months. You guys have been working on this new "countryside" for what, like a year now, with still no progress.

This is where I come in. I feel like someone with my skills in the level field would be welcome there, as I would not only make kick ass levels, but being a frustrated player, I would be able to relate to the players and create things players actually WANT, like quests and dungeons. But, even when I offer Snk a quest that works PERFECTLY, he doesn't want to take it because of the bad blood between myself and the staff team.

What else? Let's think. All the E-thugs that think they're HOT **** because they have a 32x32 pixel golden gas mask and a modified M4 carbine make me sick. I can't tell you how many times I've been approached by e-thugs like this and been told to series them, and them raging and calling me obscene words for hours?

This is where the PR team comes into play! If I do something as silly as accidentally letting a word like "*****" slip out, I'm jailed, nearly instantly, for HOURS on end, while people who walk around the spar complex calling me "white trash", "broke ass bitch", and more derogatory terms, nothing happens.

Finally, this brings me to the worst part. The focus of the game. Players take this game waaaay to ****ing seriously. They spend HOURS literally laming a BAR down the street so they can rack up kills for MORE pixelated weapons and do the exact same thing. Players on iEra need motivation to go out and PK - on Era we just do it for the fun of it, and to catch up with players.

So yes, this is what I see wrong with Era. I can probably spend an hour talking about it but I don't feel like writing a 5 paragraph essay.

tl;dr? My account was stolen. Can't get it back, ever. Quite bull****-y. Bad dev team. Bad PR team. Bad motive.
