Zone died because it became too financially geared at such an early stage.
Graal was nowhere near big enough to start charging players in that way.
Here's what zone used to be: Pay a subscription and enjoy the server to the fullest, weapons you earn last forever, including event weapons.
Here's what zone is now: Pay a subscription and be a sub-standard member until you PAY MORE for exclusive, more powerful than the average, guns. Weapons you earn last for a month & so do event prizes (unless it's a very rare perma weapon event).
You cannot be successful if you have a system where paying members are still sub-standard until they pay more.
The only way these premium paying systems can work is if they included items which don't give any edge over the other players. For example, instead of having all these exclusive, clearly better, guns in the scam shop you could have them all in the regular cash shop and replace the gelat shop with better looking clothes, better gfxed versions of already cash/class avaliable weapons.
But you know what, Stefan, Unix and supernubby won't even listen to this because you're thinking about cash. Too bad you don't know how to actually make money...
