So zones not making a comeback i see =(
 
Title is the subject comment your thoughts on how to revive Zone!
Also my opinion is make it back like 08 when u could have perm Photons,jetpack, red rifle and all that.

Crono 12-18-2012 07:38 AM

You'd be better off trying to make a time machine to go back to when Zone was actually alive.

dude2020 12-18-2012 09:37 PM

The Zone we knew is never coming back.

The iPhone version of it is just iEra with Zone maps with 360 degree shooting.

Einstine suggest's time travel is possible. Well his formula's do. I want to see the iPhone zone on pc, how well it would do..

Doing some thinking we should have new teired playerworlds.. Mobile, Desktop, and hosted... Maybe call them Gold and Playerworlds.. like the tabs are now.. Gold servers could just be the iPhone servers (your paying more, and your getting alot higher playercount)... should be simple since we already have a classic version on facebook.

We will be working on PC Zone in the new year.

Yah I heard the iPhone server was POSSIBLY gonna be accessible to pc,, and was built to be.. looking forward to see what the new year brings.

dude2020 12-20-2012 11:40 PM



Only video I've found on it.

This version, has been said by Stefan, will eventually be on all three platforms as one entity. I really wish they stuck with PC Zone, had a nice community. Nothing really needed fixing except
management.


Edit: Aaaaaand double confirmation on that. Stefan and Codein plan on replacing Zone with iZone.

Admins 12-21-2012 03:49 AM

Nice video :)
Yes we will eventually have all the content from PC Zone and more, players seem to enjoy it so far.

Phorcys 12-21-2012 02:28 PM

I'm disseapointed of iZone :( i feel like it has been rushed and it gets boring quickly.

scriptless 12-21-2012 03:19 PM

My only thing about iZone is that I spent 5 minutes asking people where to get new gun's and no one was moving, talking, or even active.. they were literally just idle on the screen.. why in the world would an iphone player idle like that? what did they do walk away from there mobile device? or is this some sort of bug? anyways I did find out where to get gun's at.. but by stupid luck.. then I noticed it was on the map the whole time.. had to scroll the map since iPhone screen isnt big enough LOL.. played it a little.. REALLY enjoyed it.. but I just cannot stand using an iPhone's small screen to play it on..

Stefan is there any expected goal for when PC will have access to this new wonderful server?

Phorcys, your telling me that iEra is any less boring????? Or iClassic even? Well iClassic has stuff to do from what I heard.. Really wish iphone classic was the same as the jaw dropping awesomeness of the pc version.. a merge for the 2 would be impressive and surely draw over 2000+ players.. lol

Donark 12-22-2012 03:08 PM

I hate how all the shooting graal servers on iphones have click to aim shooting.. make it like the original servers where you need to actually turn to shoot

iZone will never compare to what Zone PC used to be.

Feonix 12-23-2012 01:37 AM

izone sucks, just the idea of making it apart of era is retarded

that game looks better than zone, but has none of the qualities that made zone unique and fun in its beginning.

Such as?

Crono 12-28-2012 02:35 AM

that is some awful dubstep

Draenin 12-28-2012 02:39 AM

I don't entirely understand what made Zone get royally screwed up to begin with.

papajchris 12-28-2012 02:51 AM

it use to be fun, but i think that was mainly the new facto

yet to find another game with the same fighting style as zone, using mouse to aim and shoot is completely different from the original fighting method on zone.

at the beginning, there was no way to gain an unfair advantage over another player, skill would always prevail, but balance went down the drain and became an unimportant afterthought.

it also felt like a little village, everyone knew eachother, there was a sort of hierarchy of skill in zone within itself where anyone and everyone could be challenged for their place.

This new game they call zone might have some of these aspect, thats yet to be seen, but me, and i suspect most of the players who used to play and enjoy zone in its peak probably wont see this as zones big revival, because it dosent look anything like zone.

That's essentiall what a Guild would accomplish a small group of people whom know each other.. except now you will have more players so never a dull moment.. o.O

iZone still has a small community averaging about 50-90 players during non-peak hours and about 120-150 ish around peak.. Showing a downward trend in playercount over the last week or so. And the only thing that does not look like zone.. is the drop ship, and the use of classic bodies over human2 bodies... not sure about the maps themselves maybe they changed. I really only played zone for pc the first few weeks it was released. but the tileset is still zone tileset for the maps.. yeah the GUI may look different on iZone but it has been yet to be stated if they have a divide in scripts used for pc and those for iphone for all we know when iZone hits pc it could look more like pc zone then the current iZone.. we just don't know yet no information has been released..

The benefits to iZone becomming a p server is that currently the 2 gold servers zone and gk have dropped from 60-80+ players each to about 20 players total.. so ofcourse now that there is no extra revune created by gold subscribers the obvious answer is to tax everyone for gold.. but with iZone being a pc server.. its already gold and gives you high incentive to actually purchase gold to play a server with alot of players on it (potentially).. this may act in our favors and may ease the need to restrict players from the player world tabs from harsh restrictions.. i can't say for sure but it makes alot more sense then some of the other theories others have come up with about eurocenter hating graal... lets just sit back and see what happens before we bash it so hard?

It was never a dull moment in that small community.

Tighter restrictions on trials is what made those servers become what they are. If they would actually lift the restrictions (which Zone already did, it just needs someone to balance the ****) then go on iZone and go "Yo, if you like Zone. You should try out our PC Counter part!". iZone would ease the restrictions for other servers, but at a price for those who like Zone PC.

iClassic isn't saving Classic PC tho.. o.O and Classic PC is the best built pc server in terms of actual quality.. not in terms of frequencies of updates..

and zone might have had crappy managment.. right now it pretty much has none.. it has no players.. players who log on can do what ever they want and yet no one plays..

dude2020 12-28-2012 07:25 PM

I already said someone has to go in and balance weapons and such, then promote it because right now people still think there's restrictions.

Information has been released and it's going to be iZone with re done controls pretty much.

Elaborate how they are "unballanced" then? Because I can't find any complaint threads even as far back as 2009 where people complained the weapons are unballanced..

Yeah, I know it's gonna be iZone.

The community died a long time ago, that didn't stop management from adding 500 overpowered weapons and changing weapon stats on weapons that were already balanced (You can thank Pez for that one)

So your basically saying, the community died.. but not because of OP weapons.. then since it died they added them.. because that makes logical sense.. lol don't blame OP weapons that no one has *****ed about but you for the fall of the server.

dude2020 12-28-2012 10:10 PM

The community Zone had died a long time ago, before the server died but between those two periods it didn't stop management from adding more weapons causing further imbalance along with changing the stats on older weapons.

The fall of server was because of tighter restrictions that were put in place, those were lifted not even a year ago. Damage was irreversible, especially if you add in all the new overpowered weapons with stats being changed on older weapons. So go ahead, talk like you know something. *****.

You say all of that because you think I am new to graal. I have been playing since 2002.. and yes I did play zone.. not nearly as much as my brother for example.. i know what goes on on most the servers.. dont treat me like an idiot. when you grow up we can continue this conversation but untill then you might want to get your mommies premission to play graal since you dont seem mature enough

You obviously have no idea what you're talking about because I've just had to explain my point twice to get it through to you.

mewtoo18 12-29-2012 01:14 AM

I'm actually excited about the new zone. Can't wait to see how it turns out for PC.
