I talked to Skyld a couple of months back, and apparently Stefan is blind of what potential the Android market has and what $$$ it can bring him. I expect there won't even be a beta until next year.

Graal has so much potential yet its squandered by the two ****tards who run the show.
I wish a real publisher or dev owned Graal. Not some stinky Frenchman.

It's complicated. If you would put Android and Apple player on one Server it would cause a lot of lag. If you would put them on two Server it would cause that we need way more Staff which is also impossible because the Server-Manager can only focus on one server, the communitys (Graal Facebook, Forums etc would have two communitys... Because the Apple players doesn't know the Android players, they would have different themes etc. Just wouldn't work because the Android players would stay away from the Apple players and so Graal iClassic iPhone and Graal iClassic Android would become two different games in time and the forum would need 2 different main forums) and it would cause the Apple vs Android fight. It would ruin the community.

I heard it will be 2 different servers. Not sure at all tho. Otherwise the playercount will be multiplied by 2 or 3...

Every Server has a manager. And he can't focus on two servers. And if I was a manager of a server i have been working on for some years I wouldn't just tive the Server to a different person. Also Android players wouldn't have LATs, GFXs, SFXs, Ganis etc cuz the community would not know anything. So also no GMs

There is not a Problem to run more servers, just use you'r brain or play other online games.
They will use a copy of the server and the updates will be all the same, so there will be not a problem about the manager and developer team the only thing what they will need is GP/PR staffs for the other server.

You never know guys, the Android app can be a huge hit, spread by word of mouth and the Graal Android version could possibly surpass the amount that iClassic currently receives.

Then again, it could be a complete miss and only have generate a minimal amount of players.

I highly believe after it releases on Android it will be on the 500,000+ download section.. On Android the simple online "Beta" games get around that many downloads. So knowing the positive feedback Graal gets just imagine what it will receive for Android

Why would it cause a lot of lag?

For some players iClassic is already really laggy at 1.5k people online. You might not realize it on a staff account but on an device you get to feel the lag.

The lag is not caused by the cross platform mix though lol.

I wonder if a server became populous enough that it would be possible to open a second server, for that server..if that makes sense.
It would be accessible by all the platforms and exactly the same as the original, just to spread the load of players.

I hope you know.. the server doesn't cause the lag. The iDevices do cause they don't have good as specs as a lot of Android devices. Most people atm are using 4's 4S's and iPod touch 4's. Which the highest is running a dual core with less than 1GB of ram. When Android devices have up to 2GB of ram and quad core just like my devices.

Its already made. Just not released.

That's correct, and it is being worked on. Stefan stated recently that he's working on optimization. Currently an Android server can hold a max of 2031 players.
