Zone gets better :D

Moozy · 05-20-2014

I always was iEra fan. I played Classic rarely, and iZone very rarely. I played iZone for week or two, and then back to iEra for some time. But when I log on iZone today, I saw achivments, Event Shop, PK prizes I was very happy! Its like iEra now!

I will play only iZone now, because iEra is little boring and Classic is ULTRA boring! Keep getting better Zone and you will have a lot of players soon ;D

Correction, it got worse.

Yeah I agree, I wouldn't say "It's like iEra now!" but the server as a whole is definitely improving. A few things about the new new updates do need to be improved though.

The amount of Zone Coins you get from staff events really isn't proportional to the time and effort that may be put into obtaining them. A mission gives up to 3 ZC could take ~2-5 mins depending on the amount of people, an events gives the same ZC but only one person actually gets it and for the time and rarity of the events there is little point in joining, if you're doing it for the prize anyway. This is the same with achievements, for spending 20,000 hours on the game you get 10 ZC. You could make that much in 20 minutes. I love the idea of achievements and ZC, they definitely add something new to the game - They just need balancing is all.

How does adding content to a game make it worse? Especially when it affects previous content in such a little way.

I wouldn't say it's EXACTLY like iEra, but a lot of it was similar when I left. I just feel like iZone is going to become an iEra clone in time with 360 degree shooting. This really isn't the fault of management either, it's because of Stefan. For some reason he wants it to be close to iEra in many ways.

Every way in the game isn't going to give the same amount as something else. The events I agree on and those can be raised. Achievements, however, are just bonuses and aren't suppose to give you 100 Zone Coins for completing them. These additions to the server give reason for doing actually using previous content in the game that had no purpose before. That is the main reason they were added in the first place. Missions for example there was no reason to do them at all beside to get to level 3 for ship repairs. Achievements give reason to try different things on the server to get a small bonus or prize. These aren't things that are suppose to be game changers they are just things to revive current content on the server while other things get worked on.

As for the "#Zera" I really don't care what you all think about that anymore. So complain all you want there is no point.
If you don't like what is added don't use it or don't play at all. There are other servers available to you and graal will take your money just the same. If adding things for you to do is a problem them you aren't worth trying to please.

Moozy · 05-20-2014

Well iEra is little boring after over 1khrs xD And iZone is little similiar too it, so i like it. In my opinion ZC are very good idea. Its much more easy to get them than EC in iEra...

Because I said so, the new content in the game is not anything special, still a boring game, I would compare it to Classic.

so what you're saying is you would rather have things given to you rather than earning them? Roger that

Era with lasers, less clutter. Nuffsed. Has it improved? Sure in some ways. Has it worsened? Definitely in other ways. In what ways has it worsened? Don't get me started...

No **** Sherlock, I would rather have something handed to me than work for it, especially working for something in a game.

You said it got worse. It's not going to drastically improve the game so it becomes the most popular server, that's pretty obvious. But it's definitely improved it, I understand you may still think it's a boring game, you're entitled to your opinion but I still don't see why you think it would make it worse.

Pretty sure it's just you, if I had everything given to me I would just quit because there would be nothing to do, there would be nothing to aim towards so you would just get bored. I've done it before on other games using something like GameGuardian to give myself money and stuff, It's fun for a few minutes but the game just gets boring and I just end up uninstalling the game.

Actually, I'd love you to get started, because every time I see someone claiming that Zone is getting worse recently its because their panties are in a bunch because they aren't as good as everyone else and aren't having things handed to them (ZC, Achievements, SST, 25k pk room). So I'd love to hear the opinion of someone who doesn't play the server (that I know of).

So you're the guy that uses cheat codes on his DS?

That's is pretty much how you get ZC you join a mission let other players do the work and get 3 ZC. I don't think missions should even give out ZC
