got back into zone
I recently remembered how good the basing was
I like the missions and the way you need to make some stradegies to win(unless u have a op weapon)
I think all servers should make their bases like zone
Why are their 500 people as a playercount
is it because 60% of the map is empty or the ridiculous amount of blue tiles
or its not old enough

What do you think is fun about Zones basing and missions  

Actualy wars can be a lot of fun in izone. It just gets ruined by the cheesing uses of jetpacks, brooms, unlimited ammo spam, and medic bots.

Jetpacks and brooms shouldn't be enabled on the bases... So not sure why you are even mentioning those. Medic bots have been on the server since before I was even staff there. Some people like them and some don't. I have already seen in the other post a few not liking them and it will be on the poll.

jetpacks are enabled in conquest that ruins the map, brooms are in iricia and CTF, medic bots are just straight up broken as all hell with getting full health in a short time. Should be removed all together.

I like jetpacks and medic bots and unlimited amo i dont see the problem
you can't shoot while using a jetpack so theirs not much of an advantage besides getting to bases faster  

You can easily get med bots so you can fight with them. To kill them, use saber/dual alien. Fast melees can kill them.

med bots heal full health instantly in seconds
unlimited ammo promotes spam playing and thats why guns like chain guns, railgun, and GP are high tier because you can endlessly spam them and I can tell you i did not balance them for unlimited ammo. They were balanced for 250 rounds.
jetpacks makes the game more hit and run instead of fighting until the end and makes for really frustrating gameplay since its so hard to get a kill.

its not era easy to get a kill but its not that hard to kill
Not everyone can afford a jetpack , i plan on purchasing one in the future
Med bots are important during missions because if you are out of life you may need to heal yourself to take down a power generator or whatever

As for in bases well their are players which are able to kill your medic bot and
kill your squad medic bots take damage easily , thats y i dont use them often  

Obviously, you didn't mention the recharge and how the user of the med bot can die.  

Bots in general are just a horrible concept. It completely destroys the thought of strategy. Instead of appoint someone to be the healer, everyone can go medic and whip out an auto-heal. Healing should be a touch-action that has a 2 second cooldown and heals based on a %, as well as status effects. It should also take into account if you're in combat or not (Less health healed if damaged within X seconds)

lol you never have played zone if you are saying its easy to destroy medic bots. if you chuck 10 grenades into one of those things it will sit there goin u avin a giggle m8? Hell i even put a admin gun on 1000 damage once to see if there was even a slight possibility of killing one of these and one shot still it was sitting there spinning and mocking me. Medic bots are ******ed. Also wheres the fun in putting a medic bot in front of a power plant and being invincible? it takes the challenge out of the whole thing. Its one of the reasons why the rewards are ass, they are too easy.

Its also not easy to kill anymore since you can't ap ripper cheese in top level play. Also for jetpacks, get into a massive war at conquest, you will see what I'm talking about.
