September V.I.P
 

I think the adimans are running out of ideas. An apple morph is this months vip.

I think you mean September VIP

I think the adimans have stated that multiple times already.

The mounts/morphs are getting pretty lame srry

It looks absolutely adorable, I don't see whats wrong with it.

yeah because we see apple morphs everywhere, right?

I don't mind these morphs... I do however feel V.I.P has underwhelming benefits

how dare they create cute original content that is on time and consistent

Yes but an apple is probably one of the most boring thing you could make as a morph.

I think thats a matter of perspective.

Apples with limbs and faces are pretty exciting for a change if you wanna ask me... however its not really easy to come up with super exciting ideas every single month. But you could join the Graphics team and make a morph thats more for your liking, if youre not satisfied how the current Staff team is working, pal.

VIP was fun when you had access to the FB server, extra outfit colours, and the item (if it was a morph) gave you access to the frogs only, pets only, onnet general store vip, etc shops. There was a lot to it which made buying vip fun. Other than access to the oasis, it's kinda lame how the only hype about VIP is seeing what morph or horse youre going to get and hardly even use

Sheesh dude it fits the fall September theme

idk it's pretty cute for me

i think the apple morph is one of the top 5 vip items ever released (which isn't hard)

You still get access to VIP colors, all VIP morphs give access to frogs-only, you now get double furniture capacity as well as the VIP item.

If you have suggestions for VIP bonuses then I'm all for hearing them.

Dusty don't roast me but what about a little VIP sign that you can hold up and show off. You only have it when you buy the vip

A free pack of 7500 gralats each month, amazing idea if I may say so myself

I think the problem is you can buy V.I.P for one month and basically get everything you want out of it...Oasis doesn't really serve a purpose except seeing hats for the first time and selling special loot to the baby NPC. Looting seems okay-ish there but destiny still seems better for some reason (maybe spawn rates are diff? Could be wrong about this). As far as bug catching it also seems dead there considering barely any spawn (Unless this has changed within the past week or two)...

It just seems the only reason to buy it is the access to colors, and the morph or item pending if the person likes it that month.. I'm not good at thinking of idea's but Oasis is definitely a start

Some benefit that could be added might be that if you are a VIP, you could buy unique emoticons that only can be accessed on Oasis. Another I could suggest would be that VIP members get very small discounts (maybe 5-10%) on newly released items for a short period of time.

Say what you will about oasis island (ahem) I think the apple is cute, I'm glad it swims, and I will probably get vip for it... after months of not getting vip because I didn't really like the 'free gift.'

I agree with others here - give VIP a bit of a boost in coolness. The 'double furniture storage' is laughable (more than 1500 objects in my inventory) and the colors are kind of insignificant if you have customs? Mainly, though, I feel that oasis island needs a draw. It's like a ghost town.

- VIP only admin events (cuts down on the whining about not getting in to events at the same time as encouraging purchase of VIP)

- VIP only seasonal store (easy to implement - put it in one of those empty shacks on oasis island, make a few objects for it once every 3-4 months)

- VIP only emoji set (usable only while VIP subscribed, or maybe just reskins current set while subscribed)

- VIP only head/body pack (like custom pack, but activates only while VIP active, with another 5-10 pages of options)

- VIP only ganis (like /sit /run :asleep whatever... but special ones that can only be used while vip subscribed)

And, as backwards as it seems a player suggesting, make the Vip items previously given out only usable while subscribed. There would be riots, but it would encourage a feeling of exclusivity about the purchase.

The dangers of updating VIP benefits to the extreme would be that we could create the equivalent of "pay to win" but for Graal. Having special access or privileges while rewarding, it would also upset a lot of people and could backfire.

most likely the fact that once again its purely cosmetic.

I dont know if by extreme, you were referring to everything that was said here, or anything that could happen or be said still. Classic wouldnt become pay to win though. When it comes to pvp, everyone has an equal opportunity to do well. Hence why different bombs and arrows are only customized to look different, and not have different effects (yeah, i know the blast is different from the normal bomb to any other, but at this point, i feel the majority of people have special bombs).

I dont know what to call it, but im referring to the "mana" bar that limits arrow spamming. I was going to suggest that VIP users use less "mana" per arrow shot, but i realized that it isnt such a good idea cause it gives an actual advantage over others in a game which has always been about being fair.

Thats the purpose of a morph.

By "Pay to Win", it would be like more like only VIP players can have a higher guaranteed access into events rather than higher damage or range on items. More like "Pay to Play"

I think it's nice that VIP is purely cosmetic and doesn't affect gameplay. It allows you to buy VIP whenever there's something you want, but doesn't require you to buy VIP every month in order to be on the same level as every other player. Although, because classic is so strong with their furniture, I think an interactive furniture piece each month would be something cool to add to Oasis. VIP would still get the 1 monthly item like the morph, but each month there would be a different furniture item you could buy at Oasis.

Pay to win.... hats? And mounts?
Basically people are paying for morphs/mounts at this point anyway, so by this logic it already is :P

The thing that excited me the most was access to the 2nd server. There was a lot of hype to it. Now, VIP allows you access to the oasis which was fun for a while and every now and then if you go back. I agree with brett that something needs to happen with the oasis. I dont have any ideas right now about it, but ill try and think of something

does anyone else remember when VIP got you the gummy bear heads?

Would be nice if there was some sort of actual advantage over people that aren't VIP, like a separate place to do a daily quest on VIP island so you don't have to do pyrats in that crowded room, or maybe a faster mount that you can only use whilst VIP. Or perhaps open an additional room in the houses/GH of people that are subscribed to VIP. Colors are the only reason I even buy it, since the morphs and mounts have no actual use due to the fact that I have a water mount.

Just spitballin but *shrug* seems like a waste to spend 7500 when most people already have superior mounts and morphs don't even have a real use.

don't see how anyone can complain over VIP, for 7500 you get a month of colors, access to Oasis, and a morph
7500 is about the price of a decent hat

VIP bow skins...

and bomb skins

ya but at least a hat is a wearable item, no one even uses morphs, and if you have any sort of special mount the mount is useless, compacted with the fact that Oasis has absolutely no point

How about some sort of special game you could play at oasis? You all know the ctf place that shutdown and the horse racing game at york right? Well, how about we get a special game on oasis and maybe have like an admin come by there and hosts games and maybe give out prizes like mounts or hats? Because the way vip is now, it's just *get mount/morph* and *uses exclusive colors*. We should try adding stuff to oasis itself that will get people to stay, not just something you buy then leave.

You could also add a quest at oasis. It could probably consist of the beach boy at oasis who lost his special shell given to his parents or the boy is leaving the beach soon and he's going to a place really cold. Maybe you could give him your scarf? I don't know, it's up to the admins but I just hope they do something to oasis. Like you paid 7500+ gralats to a exclusive island just for you! We should have something like the two things I just listed.

Also, this may seem like the usually ''oh we need something more than this blah blah blah'' But even the admin on the thread said if you have any ideas for V.I.P., share it! This is just my opinion but if you like it, tell me you agree or maybe even give me a rep? :D

I would really love if vip island had buildings with interactive npcs and furniture. Also, redo the tiles maybe?

A notification when the bazaar hat stock is refreshed
Some kind of banner or badge on your profile showing others you're a VIP
The ability to name character slots
Faster drasine

It just struck me that this might be an issue that requires players to stop buying it in order to get attention :P

I like seeing the old tileset used there. It's like Classic's last sense of nostalgia for me, and I dont constantly buy VIP, so the fact that I only go there once in a while makes seeing the old graphics when I actually do go so much better

I really hate to be that guy... but the old tileset is unattractive and doesnt match. If we want players to stay on the island it should be pretty. Nostalgia doesnt play a role in deciding things if only a small fraction of players feel that way.

You hate being "that guy"? Psh. I love being "that guy". The old tileset was a piece of crap. Like literally it was a gigantic eyesore. Good riddance to it.

I'm glad someone else agrees with me.

absolutely love the artstyle of iclassic

it could be more though, but i think there are some limitations that the higher ups have set in terms of design direction
