Trade Tables
 

So guys what are your thoughts on the trading tables, do you think they are better or worse than the trading tables on Era? Do you think Graal Zone is becoming too much like Graal Era, otherwise known as Graal Zera. Honestly in my opinion i am really happy with the trade tables, i got a lot of good items from there, i also love the trade tables because we can trade guns. Is the rumor about trading hats true?

Hell yeah i got the Red Rifle, Grenade Launcher, Goonadeir, Lava Gun, Ap Rippers, Chaingun, and a Jetpack all from the Trade Tables. Although im pretty sad that i had to give away my Futuristic Bow, Rocket Punch, and Snow Rifle but i guess thats okay. Ily Hanson for giving me Ap Rippers and Chaingun. Wanna hear what i traded for the JEtpack, my Holly Jolly Axe haha.

RIP Zone.

You're not serious, are you? No way Zone would have something like that, RIGHT? You just made this thread to make me rage wih the fury of 1000 suns and then you'll say it's a joke, riht...? Please?

It's true....

No no really, it's okay. You can stop this sick joke now with no hard feelings <3

Shut the fudge up, the trading tables were added to Zone okay, no need to act stupid about it.

This is crazy. There is a reason Era does not let certain items be traded.

Calm those flaming **** man, I can act ignorant of something as ******ed as this edition if I want to be. Plus I kind of stopped touching Zone back in January, so yeah.

Anyways. Trade tables on Zone is the most ******ed thing that could have been done. Why would you take the last shred of what could have been considered Zone and throw it away? The only server that is /slightly/ resembling its superior PC server is Era and even saying that is pretty bad. Stefan continues to disappoint me further.

2 words, cash grab. Nuff said.

Now we have to wait for the whole god damn player base to start overpricing trash. Oh wait its already begun. Freaking guy would only give me a xmas axe for 80 ec. Wtf really?

I'm not laughing.

I seriously thought this was a troll thread.

Then there was that crushing wave of disappointment as I saw that Trade Tables sign at Start.

Wup.

I'm just about done with Graal now.

You can come roleplay actual market stalls on Valikorlia, my pokemon friend. :)

No sorry.

I mean it when I say "just about done with Graal."

*Puts coat and feathered hat in chest.*

RIP 5hift, who died cause of bad times.

#zera....
But they're ok I mean I got the bow, tree dagger, heart dagger, spd axe, heart launcher and tons of zc

Don't cry for me, don't shed no tear.

I'm off to a better place...

PS3, I'm coming for ya baby!

Do people not understand what Limited Edition means anymore?

If anyone can get one then it's value is violently stripped from it.

I thought ZC was supposed to be like EC...

You've gotta work hard for it now just barter crap off for it.

You're half-missing the point of why this is trash but also half-right. The problem with this is that it's just another thing that makes Zone like Era. As it stands, there's nothing really unique to Zone anymore aside from 360 shooting and a different skin with sounds. Everything else is the same:

******ed-ass pets that serve no function
Housing with similar systems and purposes
Trading done in the exact same manner (Now)
Buying money
****ING GOD DAMN HATS THAT PEOPLE GO BAT**** CRAZY OVER BECAUSE THEY GOT ACCUMULATED TIME

This is off the top of my head. What made Zone special was that you had to work to earn everything. You couldn't get things handed to you. You had to kill people; LOTS of people because they normally only had 1-20 bounty, so it took a while. With the revival of Zone in the name of iZone, it has lots of potential to set itself apart and be unique. Be Zone. Make us proud and all that jazz, but no. Instead Stefan had to make it an exact duplicate of Er with minor differences.

I wouldn't expect Zone to code and produce their own trading system and idea!

Don't worry I won't miss ya <3

Well you expected wrong now didn't ya?

Who're you?

Hydra/FOD

Don't act like you don't know :)

Are you Batman?

No wait that can't be...

We all know Blueh is Batman.

does this mean i'm satan because i did the sprite for the tables?

I don't care too much about this update. Imo it doesn't really change much, if anything, besides appease some of the players that wouldn't shut up about how much they needed trading in zone. I'd think that some sort of trade GUI different from Era's would be cooler, but I guess its more efficient if its more public.

And can someone explain why it is so damn awful that we used something that Era has? I mean come on, this has been asked for since the introduction of the in-game forums. People even specifically asked for "Trade Tables, like on era"... I mean really, please explain how it hurts the game that we have a building that has content from era in it. Seems like every update is somehow traced back to Era, even when not a lick of the idea has anything to do with Era.

Zone can be played on Facebook... It's just like Era!

People who said that obviously came from Era and have very little imagination. Hey, I wanted Trading. But using an exact replica of Era's trading system is just unoriginal. We are playing Zone for Zone, not for some knock off of Era.

I didn't know :0

I've said it before and I'll say it again. Zone needs scripters. We are lacking people in thepat department. I think we have just the managers, but I'm not sure.

Okay, Zone now has trading tables, which is good, a game is much better when there is trading involved. However, I can understand what players are saying on the other side of the fence as well, how this makes the game more similar to Era (trade tables, couldn't have coined a better more futuristic name for them? :/) So I really really hope now Zone strays away from responding to the 'Do this like Era has' etc comments and produce it's own content. I mean come on, it's in the future in space, the sky isn't even the limit, it's higher than that!

^^^

Guess you shouldn't have fired Gunderak then...

I've honestly just started playing Era now, so many things on Zone are just identical to Era. Why play a copy when you can play the real thing?

Zone's limits stop at the edge of the expanding universe.

When does an expanding universe stop expanding? :0

This is a legitimate suggestion, maybe whomever is a currently scripter can train/teach several 'students' until they become sufficient with scripting. Similar to Avant-Garde but smaller and more personal.

The only scripters are Tashkin and PD, pretty sure Tashkin is quite new to scripting and is still learning so I doubt would be able to teach.

you sure bout dat?

wow. i don't play zone. but wow.

they should've been a tad more original and name them "trade linkers" or something instead of trade tables.

The name is fine. Not everything needs to be futuristic, like seriously chill out

Zone, future themed! Of course everything has to be futuristic, if it doesn't feel like a new futuristic server then why not just leave and play era, because there would be nothing different from and and Zone

Nah...

Well, they keep complaining about have a lack of scripters but fired the only one they had.

There was no rush for a trading system. If they had no scripters, don't make something as large as a Trading System quite yet. But no, the solution is No Scripters? Hey Era is looking pretty good, maybe if we just used this...

It's pretty popular so I don't see the problem with it.

To me it's the fact that this isn't ****ing Zone. Zone didn't and should not have any trading involved. It should be full-on PKing with a few rest areas. None of this pet stuff or orgasms over hats because of guild time. Like I've stated (possibly multiple times) already, a lot of the updates I'm seeing are not even Zone related anymore. It's basically taking on Era in all aspects.

and before you ask or incase it isn't obvious; yes I mad. I very mad. Zone is the one server that got me hooked on Graal years ago and it's what took my time. Now seeing something with it's name and claims of being Zone are empty and vile. It's basically the same as iDelt. That's not Delteria, that's some other game entirely.

The problem is Zone has and continues to nit-pick ideas and content from Era. I think the only main thing they've made is the Forums System. I mean beforehand, I was just like "Oh that's from Era, but it's a good system." Yet now, it's constantly happening.

The culture among mobile servers is to develop content that accommodates as many players as possible. The original plan for Zone iPhone was to solely focus on PK related content but we all know what the player count looked like back then. Zone's just trying to accommodate as many players as possible.

I don't see how that's a problem.

You can't say that it was low entirely because of the focus on the actual idea then. It was also full of bugs the first time and the second time it had just started up without any time given. Now as it is, I have a choice between:

Classic; lots of "rate me pls" "i hav kik n snap chat" and "lol im 13 rate me pls i hav kik n snapchat n instagram boys only" with (I'll admit) incredible latency and the fact that it can handle loads of players in a single area without slowing down.

Era; lots of players with some of Era PC's ideals, however it has housing (which is a bit pointless, but it actually serves a slight purpose as storage). The player base is fairly annoying compared to PC and everything just seems so much more dreadful with little variety in guns and such

Or

Zone; less players than Era and it has a bit better player base; 360 degree shooting and jetpacks (Oh look, something actually original for once), but aside from that it has nothing else that seperates it from Era. Same dreadful weapon balancing and variety (due to low health), pointless housing just so people can waste money and buy more and now the introduction of the exact same trading method as Era! Oh boy! Everything else is pretty well the same. Bland and boring. The only other upside I can think of is that their event hosting system is decent to use now. I much prefer it over having to wait for people to crowd into a room, but aside from that it's just as bland as Era.

Lets be real. The low player count was because there was hardly any content, and the content that was there was of very poor quality.
