I dont get it. You can't KILL your own team members, but the other teams medics can HEAL the opposite team?

yes they can. they can heal anyone at their choice but the other team can kill them if they are stupid enough to do it.

That's just ****ed up.

Yeah good point but its easier to limit who can be healed. What if they are healing a group of people who are good. Your screwed.

You used to be able to kill your own teammates with any "exploding" weapons, but that was taken away for obvious reasons. Now you can shoot boxes to kill your teammates, which is fun, just more difficult.

@TC: No, I like annoying people and seeing who will shoot me randomly. Note that it's also fun to heal people and then syringe them until they die.

You would be screwed anyways if they got cookies and medkits. Human medics are not even fast enough. If I am at low health and I am fighting, I just have to push Q-S-S-Q and I'm healed. Much faster! ;o

u see, the real problem is, that your own team mate is giving an advantage to the enemy team by constantly healing them, no matter how much u shoot. the enemy will just run, your own medic runs with him, since u cant shoot the medic, and he will heal him somewhere else.

Sounds to me that zone players are losing the focus of the game. This happens to all games eventually when their is not much to accomplish or do. That is why xbox 360 came out with gamer points. Zone needs a storyline or something to make players want to play. I mean what is the point of playing zone? Besides your rank which does not really matter... I use to be the highest ranked member on zone as a marshall back in the day. Then i quit because i got so bored of just KILL, KILL, DIE, KILL. it gets boring after a while.

Except you're wrong. Counter Strike is the same thing over and over and it's still one of the biggest games. On xfire, it's the third highest in terms of hours played (CS Source of course, the original is still 8th which is awesome too).

I never played CS, but i assume it takes skill and strategy, zone takes neither

How does Zone -NOT- take skill?

Stategy, just a bit.

Zone is probably the most skill-needed game

are you on drugs?
zone is nothing compared to a real shooter game, simply because with games like counter strike u are able to shoot in all directions...in all ways. on zone u can only shoot one direction or to the sides. nothing more. plus zone has only 1 real world that is popular and thats the snowy planet, iricia if i remember, the other ones are bullS... only for events they are nice to be used.
just delete every other planet and make graal a free zone.
Iricia that is.

I don't think you have seen Zone in a while, maybe when you played everyone was still holding S to kill each other... And, just beacuse Zone isn't First Person Shooter doesn't mean it takes no skill, let any random kid play Zone and if this kid can beat every player, then you have a point about skill. Also before you beat down on Zone, you are saying Era takes no skill as well, as Era is the same just a bit more challenging since you can only shoot in 4 Directions, instead of 8.

Also, Spar Planet is very commonly fought at, so is Deathmatch with or without an Event.

P.S.
When did you play? I mean that, Marshall the highest rank...

Sincerely,
Desear

So you are saying in counter strike that when you press the fire button bullets come out from EVERY direction of your gun? In Zone you can shoot up, down, left and right, along with diagonal directions. Iricia is most common because the games last for a long time. Deathmatch, spar and even Alpha are very popular, with or without events. If you ran Zone it would most certainly plummet in playercount more than the amount that V5 caused.
