Ideaz

Thought this maybe a good idea to get a playercount on zone

I was thinking like some sort of reward where you play, like play for an hour get $100 (game money of course..)

or something like that, i don't really know but a reward where you get for actually playing on zone,

like played on iricia gmap for an hour 25Grenades or something, like and it'd be totally random! you'd have to decide. And it'd have to be on the gmaps so people can't just idle on dropships .

Even if people did idle and this was to idle zone would still have a playercount so other people would actually log on and not think oh no 3 people bla bla bla and just log off.

Anyway anyone got ideas on dis?

Im all for this~

It would be nice to see zone having a playercount, even if idle.

Have players achieve a present every hour or so to aquire something from a list, with common things like grenades or medkits or some money, to rare things like 1 month with a cheap (lesser) gelet weapon.

I sort of agree. I like the reward system for playing, and i see this as a good way to release guns, which would (hopefully) in-turn bring playercount.

I am with this. I agree an achievement system could help Zone. Small prizes for Zone can help people and make them more eager to get certain things. There should be like, tournaments in Zone...for money like 5k a tournament, when the playercount is sustained, of course. Also, just think about what made Zone so great back then. Maybe just try putting those kind of things back, possibly enhancing them? Keep the gelat shop, it was a lame idea to begin with, but money is money. Tbh, rolling kind of makes up for all those lame weapons, you know? Remove the bunker planet...no one uses it.

Okay, to start with, I like your idea Tenchry, since it may enhance the playercount a bit more every day. (people start playing and loging on seeing there is a playercount, start playing and gets addicted really fast, ya'know...)

In addition, a bigger playercount could help Zone advance since we can have more suggestions, thoughts and everything. It's always appreciated to know what players would like to see next or what improvement can be done.

Althought, it is not the first time I see scooter's idea about removing Bunker. The reason is always the same "nobody plays it". Ya, why would you play it when the playercount does not even reach 5. If thats a good argument to close a planet forever, you might want to close alpha, koth, capture the flag and guild wars too.

Anyways, this is pretty much my opinion about Zone nowadays, changes need to be done and we need to try something new, so, good idea Tenchry.

Hmm i got this idea from another game, but it gave them tokens to buy items from the shop with like, you could only get tokens that way and only get the shop items from the tokens, could work on zone :o but like for example you could have a token photon?

it'd have smaller clip maybe and do like 2 less dmg? or you could just get gelat or it could be new weapons altogether :O

Something like this would be cool, but not just for idling in the map.

Okay, the reason I want Bunker removed is because no one plays it. Even when Zone released it with a decent playercount still barely anyone played it. It was a poor idea to begin with. They should keep Deathmatch, Spar, Ircia and Guild Wars and Events Planet (For Newbies) only. Instead of making a new planet maybe just enhance Ircia?

yeah but bunker is a good planet if you're pissing about just remove the helicopters and remake the gmap of it lmao, it's a good idea, zone needs the variation you may wanna do iricia 24/7 but not everyone else does, redo CTF map too srsly..
