A few suggestions:

1. The music. I downloaded the app the other day and the music hurt my ears. It sounded like a song you would hear in the background at the end of a YouTube video or rave music or something. It's obnoxiously loud and I automatically mute when I hear it.

2. The map. The map is, as it is now, just bad. Sooo many styles clash. The candy canes do not at all match the tileset, neither do the Christmas trees or presents. Map layout is not great either. If you want to get somewhere, you basically follow one path to get there. The thing that makes exploration games fun is trying to find different ways to get somewhere. On zone, there's a specific path that takes you where you want go and basically does not encourage much exploration.

3. Delete anything that has nothing to do with a futuristic theme. Why are there oak trees in space? Why is there fishing? Why is there a casino?

Yeah the music is not that good I will get iMask to try and make some music for us right now, but we are also getting really talented SFX Artists so they will for surely make some good SFX for us

I really understand what you mean about the exploration thing, it is a good idea to make it more so the players can explore and find there way around stuff instead of just following paths, I'll put this note to the LAT's.

Good questions. I never really had intentions in the Casino or Fishing or Oak Trees, but I kind of like the oak trees in this futuristic kind of theme. It brings more nature to the theme. Have you ever walked around our map for more than 30 seconds? It's all blue, the grass and nice trees helps get rid of the blue. If you see futuristic games they have trees as well like the Institute in Fallout 4,

You can't tell me that doesn't make it look more attractive, right?

also instead of 'removing stuff like fishing because not really on theme how about adjusting/changing it to say like a magnetic tool that draws in rocks with different stuff stuck in them(just an idea of topofmyhead probably could be something better than that.)

I like that idea because I really dislike our fishing job, as it has nothing to do with our theme we live in the sky and there is no water lol. Your idea does sound pretty cool I'll talk to some of our staff about it and see what they think.


Well anyways, I know I stated this before but I just want to re-state it, we have a lot of projects in the works and they won't be done too soon but they will really make Zone different in a good way. I really can't wait for this specific project to be done because it will change Zone for all the better. And after that project is done it just goes from there With amazing things yet to come.

IMPORTANT: OH, and I almost forgot to state that I want to implement more jobs on iZone because as you may have noticed we don't have that many jobs and the ones we do have really don't help you players earn money which I want to change that because I don't play Zone that much I just work for it but when I do I always notice how hard it is to earn money. SO, if you have any ideas for jobs on iZone I really want to hear them. Hopefully it'll match our theme. Thanks again.

Have a nice day everyone Happy Holidays <3  

Happy Holidays on Zone.
Enjoy the stuff I made!

Maybe, but on Zone it doesn't seem to work, mostly because I think the styles of the tree and the tileset are both very different so it's kind of hard to say.

No server has the most potential all graal servers have great potential if managed properly I'm not trying to offend you or anyone but its true

Izone still has the most potential over anyserver since it doesn't go by the standered graal MMORPG formula. It goes by a classic multiplayer arcade style shooter. Everyother server except for izone when launched was the same exact formula as classic. Izone was not though, thats why I believe it has the most potential

Also alex dont waste time with more jobs, just buff the current jobs.  

hi

you get the concept

this is what one town (slums) could look like, there may be higher stages

(gmaps ontop of each other)


that may be higher in technology and brighter and more eco friendly

hi

Awesome but not graal fitting content that is wanted ALTHOUGH to be fair this gives decent ideas/creativity to others, love the spaceship bwt

graal fitting content that is wanted

elaborate?

(side note, its next to impossible to make it like this, and i would never do it even if it was possible, you guys know why)

elaborate

Like that what you done couldn't really go into game in anyway unless there was loads of levels like that or was a random level of its own(idont think you meant for it to go into game tho as the characters on it etc)[also with how shooting is would change the dynamic far too much if lots like this]  

i would completely tear the game apart and make it new with the original zone sprites from pc

if: the graalengine had the neccessary methods of doing such things (layers and tilesetsize mostly)

unixmad paid me well + zone revenue share

thats why its next to impossible, but he would have 10000 (if not more) people playing zone

Yeah I believe they was wanting that around the second time of zone release but apparently stefan made decision when he was here to use the other default bodys etc classic use for whatever reasons, unsure if alex would be intrigued to venture into doing that(But yeah it'd need literally tearing to scratch again cause of all the hats etc that go with classicdefault heads etc)

Omg this is exactly like one of the ideas I wanted to pitch to the administration, love it! (The top picture)

Also, is it alright if I use your spaceship design as a template for a new and cool one as an attempt to replace the ugly old one?  

yes  

In theory, how many gmaps are capable of being in the game? I don't know much about the actual technical side of graal btw.  

PlayerCount will go back to 500-700 when hanson quits
