Are outside scripters and such hired to do certain projects in Graal?
 
Just something I'd like confirmed or not.

Outside scripters?

Wickodd 06-11-2016 04:32 AM

Like people who don't exactly work for Graal, but are brought in/hired to work on certain things.

(This is how it was described to me from someone making a claim, and it sounded a little sketchy so I wanted to make sure here)

Edit: A friend and someone I want to trust made the claim, which is why I'm even asking about it here.

Scripters don't go outside.

Shmegg 06-11-2016 05:11 AM

Zone hired an outsider to make a new tileset for them, if that counts for outsiders "and such".

Dusty 06-11-2016 05:36 AM

For scripters? Nah because GS2 is a proprietary language with poor documentation. Wouldn't be worth the time paying them to learn it.

Wickodd 06-11-2016 05:43 AM

Let me ask this then, how many scripters does Classic have at the moment? Do these names sound familiar? Skyler, Ty, Soroh, Palen, Kero.

graal has money, graal is poop, graal needs more money, graal has bread, graal hires actual studied people with degrees, graal become better, more money

... why? It's gameplay and artistic style are perfect for mobile

hiring a front end c++ guy to clean up the core would be nice, but 100-150$ per hour can get expensive

might aswell rewrite graal entirely

I can't tell if you're trolling, or being serious at this point

A new client would be really nice.

$100-$150 an hours expensive for graal? they are probably making around $500 each minute from graalat packs, plus people buying the game and the revenue from the trialpay, so they make around $800 every 5 min

Are you pulling these figures out of your ass? Or are you actually reading statistics from somewhere?

Wickodd 06-11-2016 11:32 PM

I guess the friend is just lying about scripting in Classic. Ah well...

Chelterrar 06-17-2016 01:31 AM

It does have scripters who aren't from Graal, I talked to at least 1 before. Not sure how many there are

Expanding the accessibility to other platforms is never a bad thing as long as cost isn't too much of a limiting factor.. Especially since a console would also probably be well suited to Graal style gameplay.

Like that's gonna happen; players/developers have been fighting for improvements/rewrites/etc for how many years? But yes. It would be nice.

You're not taking into account server costs, costs to pay people on payroll, costs to pay for any additional services required, costs for maintenance, etc. Not every penny that comes in is profit. Plus your estimates are terrible and based on literally nothing.

Pulling them out of his ass.

Distorted_P2P 06-22-2016 01:40 PM

Graal scripting mostly consists of sitting there with a notepad copying others script and editing/pasting it into new code lol but it's so poorly set up I'd rather work with Roblox's engine.

Statistically 90% of statistics are made up.
