So annoying how players didn't atleast ask or take some time to figure out how the shooting system was, but I kinda agree. There should have been a mention of this "shooting system" in the tutorial when you first start playing. It took me about three days to figure out you can shoot 360 degrees.

But seriously, don't complain about the shooting system when you didn't take the time to try and figure it out.

Actually when you first start there's a little explanation that pops up that explains the controls of Zone and mentions the 360 shooting system, but most players skip through it if they've played Graal Before.

Isn't he cute?

The 360 shoot system isn't such a reason to play, I like the combat/PK focused theme (if there would be more but only showdown).

Yea when they said 360 degree shooting I was expecting it to be kinda like a joystick that can shoot 360 degrees. Instead it shoots at a weird angle that randomly changes lol.

That style of shooting where the gun shoots where you want to isn't "era style" its kinda "common sense" style. I mean the 360 degree shooting sounded rlly nice on paper but did not expect what I saw.

The reason I bring this up is to find out if zone is working on their shooting system because iFreeze is bored pwning era and wants to move its operations elsewhere. Plus we have ppl in gang tht are admins on zone so they are rlly pushing this as well.

I guess people like the shooting style from the replies of this forum so I'm assuming its not gonna change

Well I thought Common sense was bullets shoot in direction u press on d-pad.

So you deleted a app based on the fact that you can't shoot straight? o.O

Yes....I wanted to play another game where I can shoot people so 99% reason I wanted to play was the shooting  

After 2k spar wins have never had any problem with this O_o
Really unsure of what the problem is.  

I honestly think the reason why there aren't too many players is because of multiple reasons. For one thing, the game practically revolves... No, completely revolves around squads. That's a bit of a turn-off for me and I'm sure many other people who would rather dive in solo. Then, there's the fact that even if you are in a squad, there's barely anything to do. And finally, zone just doesn't have a sort of appeal that I honestly don't know how to describe, or even really make out for that matter... Maybe it's just because of the lack of content that can't be compared to the quantities of content in era or even classic.

It's practically joystick. It just looks like a button, but it works the exact same way.

No, it doesn't shoot in random directions. It shoots right where your finger is on the "joystick"

there's barely anything to do.

It's the last iGraal game yet, so don't expect it to have as much content comparable to the others. It also did have a rough start, and from what I've heard, a Manager that did barely anything, and was later replaced (by a much better Manager).

There are huge updates always being worked on. If you wait a while, Zone will be comparable to Era.  

I understand it doesn't have much to do because its a young server, but it's just that what is available to do as of now just isn't as... Well, I honestly don't know how to put it. Era probably had just as little content when it was young, but it made up for it with player killing. Classic sorta did the same thing, but instead of PK, socialization filled the empty void of solid content. Zone.... Zone doesn't have much... Think, how is zone different from the other iServers? It takes place on different planets, and much of the sort of open ended action happens in missions, and it still gets a bit monotonous. That's what there needs to be! Zone needs something you can do out in the wide... Wait... The world of zone ain't very wide 0.0. Okay, so first there needs to be a big, open planet sorta like skyworld, only it's not just a big mall. Then, there needs to be something on that planet everyone can just go off on their own and do that never really gets old! So there, that's what iZone lacks that other servers with big playercounts have, something to do that never gets old, like PK or socialization.... Maybe somehow make open PvE that doesn't feel like your grinding on stuff that's dumber than a noob?  

There is nothing wrong with the shooting system, it is even in fact better than era's. put your finger in the direction you want it to go. Want it to go up and to the left, press on the upper left side of the button.  

One thing that has probably repulsed them is trying to earn money, now it's much easier. But new players are having a hard time figuring it out  

So if I move my finger in a circle my player will shoot in a circle?
I believe I tried that and it did not happen. Maybe something changed since the last time I played the game so i'll give it a shot again see what I did there

Yea I think you have a point everyone is separated. The planets and everything else are separated. I think its fine that it is team oriented but the fat that you cant be on a planet and do something else other then protect those bases is boring  

You wasted 1.99 on a game because u were too lazy to do anything but press a button :/  

It's not Zone's fault it has a low player count. Most players had already been active members of Classic or Era when Zone released. They don't wanna throw away their game on a server to go to another (I did, lol). And if that's not the case, Era is already a gun dominated game, and I'm sure most chose gangster over future.

lol no I got it free. Although this game is nothing but pressing buttons O.o so they are important.

It is Zones fault it has a low player count lol. No one else to blame, most people were looking for something new to do and zone had a lot of hype before it began that it could not live up to. I bet more people would have stayed if the shooting was not weird..... a lot more.

Not entirely true, for starters, because of the hype iZone was receiving, Stefan decided to release it early despite the possibility of a lot more content being added pre - release. This is the mistake he won't be making with Delt.

The shooting is not wierd, you just need to adapt to it. It might be a bit biased but users on this thread have pointed out the shooting is fine and I think some have said it is better then iEra's.

So no it's not entirely Zone's fault, if it was up too me though I'd probably temporarily close the server, revamp it, then re release.
