What's wrong with iZone?
 

First of all, I am Vatec, many of you probably don't know me but I am currently working at iZone as a Developer.

I am here to ask you all, why don't you play iZone? Classic/Era were much more successful. I'm not sure if many of you know but iZone's player count has been on a steady fall and only increases when something big happens such as the free version being released.
(You can view the player count graph here, make sure to select month to get a bigger view: http://statistics.graal.us/server/show/1770)

iZone is actually very fun, it has all the things such as PK places, spar arena, hat shops and even new stuff such as robots which can be programmed to follow you. iZone also has missions, something which I haven't really seen on Classic (apart from the few quests) and I'm not sure about iEra but this is something I really enjoyed when I played. You can team up with random people or take part as a squad (guild/gang), there are a good variety of missions everything from a hostage rescue to destroying bases.

Not only missions but there is also an event called showdown, which is a free for all battle where the last player surviving wins, I don't know what the reward is (I've never won lol) but I think there is one. Also a few different things such as planets, and a 2d side scrolling gravity battle map.

So what don't you people like about iZone? What does Era/Classic have which Zone lacks? And most importantly, why don't you people play Zone?

TLDR; y u no leik izone

And if you haven't played iZone yet, why not give it a shot :)

I went online and didn't really get further than looking at the start base, it's not appealing to me. Looks boring. I didnt even give it a chance tbh :(

What was the problem, the tileset or the level design?

p2w

People have their friends, items, clothes and skill on the other Servers.
You need more stuff so it's worth it leaving iEra/iClassic.
The first impression counts a lot but when you released there was only PVP (which is also there on iClassic/iEra)
and missions... But people won't leave for missions only. So you need to keep on developing and from time to time you will grow and earn players.

The staff are not very good and it is pay2win

Hi, vatec.
Also, p2w. Plus not many of my close staff friends play anymore. Plus I don't have time for graal at all.

I rarely use my ipod anymore, I use FB graal.

From the PC zone , it looks boring.

How's it pay to win?

It's not like PC Zone, it's more of a Shangrila Era hybrid.

What is a Shangrila Era Hybrid??

Pay2win, don't bother saying "How's it pay to win?" I'm not going to reply.

Nothing is wrong with zone to be honest. I love the spar xD *spam spam* I don't enjoy the planet taking too much though, tends to booorreee me way too fast. The missions are cool to do with friends :-) Showdown is wicked, whoever suggested that idea deserves credit. I don't play anymore because sadly I'm too busy. I hardly even spar iEra anymore.
