Agreed, shooting is changed.. Minor update IMO

wrong, the entire style of play was based around zones shooting style, when mouse click was released, old faces hated it because changed the way people fought against eachother, mouse to shoot is fine in itself, but zones way of shooting was different, more skill based and appealed to the few of us.

So your saying PC Zone killed PC Zone?

sort of, PC zone was dying long ago, changes implemented in it ruined the feel of zone, newer weapons tipped the balance and where accessible through cash shops making it feel like pay to win, trials where restricted far too much eventually too.

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?

like i said, izone itself looks fine, it just isnt zone and will not be likely to attract any of the old zone players back. But if it makes money and new players i dont see why anyone should care, most of us gave up on zone long ago. |
