why do you come on the Zone forum and just post that Zone is crap and no one plays it

Weak is a pretty good word actually. Some people may enjoy the things you listed about Zone but clearly the content is not drawing in enough players. The staff should be focusing on making the server stand out from the other two. Right now it just plays like Era with some extra directional shooting and you have some of the item collecting that is the staple of Classic. There's really nothing that really sets Zone apart at the moment so it is definitelya weak server.

Obviously you haven't played Zone. Just about everything I listed makes Zone different from iEra. It's also more than just content that makes players not attracted to Zone. Which we are currently working on changing. (One of those things is out of my control and I don't agree with.) Another reason players don't go to Zone is because they have spent years on iEra and don't want to start over again. Which is very understandable, because I would do the same thing. There are only a couple things on Zone that are similar to iEra. That is some of the events and that it is a gun server. So unless you have played this server more than 5 minutes you should not be posting your non-sense when you don't know anything about it.

The only things you listed that are unique to Zone was the missions and bomb spar, nearly all the other content is available on Era. Of course people aren't going to leave Era for Zone if they've already been playing it for a while, that's why I said you should work on something that makes the game more unique rather than a re skin of Era.

Weak is actually a horrible term. The playercount is low but zone has many things to do. I could have months worth of achievements just off of a few things on iZone. Zone has missions, basing, events, mini-events, jobs, bomb-spar, normal spar, guild spar, and more... To say it is weak because you don't want to do those doesn't make the server weak. The only thing from iEra are some of the events and that's about it. To say we are just copying them is a very ignorant thing to say. I try to bring things the other servers don't have, but that is not always possible. Some things are even out of my control since I don't own the server Stefan does. Just because you don't like something doesn't mean the server is "weak". There are many things to do on Zone that I don't see on either of the other servers.

Weak fits iZone perfectly, just like how it did for Zone PC. All because you have content, which apparently isn't that unique, it doesn't mean the server is weak. I know how Stefan acts behind the scenes, this isn't something new. iZone is weak because it can't draw players because no one is being creative with their ideas, they're just rehashing **** with a twist.

Zone PC was weak because it had the same problem.

I'm a bored asswipe. That's why, but good attempt at twisting my words though. Don't worry though, I'll get bored of this and disappear for a few more months.

I started over and I didn't care LOL

Not true for everyone. One of the main reasons why World of Warcraft is still the biggest MMO out there right now is because players don't want to leave after they've spent years on it.

I was used to Classic. I was shaky on Zone, but then I got so good and relaxed with iZone! Great game, and controls.

Mejico Josh · 11-21-2013

Glazey is right. Zone does not have its own identity yet and it needs something unique. The two mains things that tashkin said where unique have probelms with new players (missions get old fast and there are better ways to earn money and bomb spar isnt good for new players due to the fact you have to pay for a robot)

Dont get me wrong tashkin i feel you have been a great asset for zone as you turned the server around but now you need to get content that is creative and fun (cant see this happening with stefan behind the scenes though)

Tashkin · 11-22-2013

We have the Alien Rambo and also the Alien Invasions. There are many things on Zone... I didn't list them all. Zone still has more to do than any of the other two servers and more is being worked on. You all act like development has stopped completely when it hasn't. x.x

I wouldn't say that, however.. Zone has its content.

I would... doesn't mean players like to do it all.

Zone has quite a bit of content. A substantial amount of that content is not used/played by players (see "dead"), which gives the impression that iZone is lacking in content and doesn't have much to do.

iZone's development team is hardworking, and the team is constantly working on something new, and juggling multiple projects at once.

Halloween was successful and fun to me on zone. I'm looking forward to more updates soon. More PK stuff, possibly spar. Hopefully the achievement system will be done soon so the PK/Spar hats can be added.

Halloween was fun, free hats and cheap furniture. Cool guns, and nice melees.
