Don't talk of things about which you do not know.

You really should stop, as you really still have no idea what you are talking about. None of the quests that used to exist on old classic would work on iphone, they would have to be entirely rescripted. It is pretty funny watching you tell players who actually played classic back in the day that you know better than them.

Quest Dev is really, really, really hard if you are going to do it right. Take this from someone who has actually developed a new quest recently. The Trent quest remake (on Unholy Nation) took me roughly 6 months to finish, and I didn't have to deal with the limitation of iphones or worry about the playercount over 50. Expecting volunteer staff members to make a Zelda-type quest that would accommodate 100s of iphone players at once is absurd.

why are you still talking?

I dunno, every quest we've had on iClassic had it's own popularity and hype for a couple days, and then the whole craze kind of died down. Shovel quest, the multiple Deadwood quests, RPS hats...

We need longer quests, something either constantly updated or extremely complex that would take days, if not weeks to complete. But that would require very skilled (and I'm assuming paid) scripters, and I don't think Stefan is too interested in hiring paid scripters at the moment.

Quests die out because once you complete them theres little or no replay value. The only quest that remains popular is the Pyrate Bay cleanup daily event because it can be replayed. That's why quests don't make a server and focus should be on events/minigames (Archery Range) or activities/items to enhance gameplay (Towers or new weapons). Theres a reason single player games dont have as many hours of gameplay as a multiplayer game.

Edit: Also, whats wrong with hats? If the graphics team have free time and want to make them what is there to complain about?

You're absolutely wrong. Quests are quite a social experience. I remember redoing quests to help friends, or leading noobs to quests that they don't know about. This is essentially a different form of replay value and adds to the social experience of the game.

No one backed them up? I find that very hard to believe given all the Classic levels that survived to make iClassic.

You're wrong for one simple reason. iClassic is based off of PC Classic, which had been in existence since the late 90's. There are a ton of quests already developed that simply have to be uploaded.

The fact that you are staff and don't realize what's out there and already made is frightening. The fact that you are staff and responded to my suggestion, the sole purpose of which was to make this game better, with curse words and unprofessional language is frightening. You're clearly a part of the problem.

If you don't believe that all this stuff is developed already, then what do you make of this map from PC Classic?

Time and time again you have proven just how misinformed you are. Old quests are just that: old. They are mostly clientside in an old language. Not made for the sheer number of players iClassic has and certainly not made for the introduction of NPC-Server. Time would need to be taken to convert them. Levels would most likely need to be updated (considering the tileset has changed), graphics would have to be redone (some of the old graphics were good for the time but...bleh). Scripts would have to be converted and then re-updated to the new environment they are in. Things like the fact the view screen is a lot smaller so some quests may need to be altered to deal with this. Comes down to our old friend: time and resources!

On a side note, I'm not staff.

Default Graal graphics have never been 'good for the time'. You look at this screenshot, from 2001:

And then look at this one, from 2001, a game released the same year, Golden Sun:

But, still, I see your point.

Wow man, golden sun. That is like one of my favourite games of all time.

That looks REALLY reminiscent of Animal Crossing. I miss Animal Crossing </3  

Some people have argued that Graal Kingdoms looks like Golden Sun.

Golden Gate Quest(;......

The Golden Realm quest in 2004 was such a let down... Tyhm moved the Tear of Hera that you got from the quest to another location. That location being Bannon's house, and the "quest" was just navigating through a very short and easy warp maze (if you touched the sides of the path you were warped to the beginning) with swamp soldiers (they shoot arrows and then hide).

Oh wow, Animal Crossing... Another fantastic game...

Legendary. The most addicting game I have ever played, in my opinion.
