Everyone unbunch your panties. The time it has taken you to have this argument, you could have worked for the Christmas Rifle by now. Arguing isn't going to change crap.

I can't unbunch my panties because I'm naked right now.  

LOL  

Jester whether or not you have to buy the item it doesn't change the fact that it is blatently OP. I don't HAVE to buy it but other people will and then use it. It's not as simple as ignoring the problem.  

It's a melee, if you allow someone to get close enough to use it effectively on you then you deserved to get owned. Play smart.

As for spar, I haven't checked it yet. Does losing the spar affect you negatively? Is there a reward for winning? If no, then again, it is a for fun activity, consider it a luxury.

Concerning the price, there is pretty much still nothing to buy at this point. You could get the sword in a day without packs. I see no problem with things being a little high in price because people are just stockpiling money anyways after having bought all the guns.

Also, Imprint, I do not know what it is you have against iZone, but it seems you have said nothing but negativity towards it. If there is something bugging you, feel free to message me.  

I've explained why I'm so critical of Zone to JWD it's not meant to be malicious.

I suggest make melee weapons faster.  

Well it does seem that way seeing as you continue to put aside the great things the staff team has done and only voice your opinion on some questionable or "wrong" by popular opinion things. Even a critic knows how to say well done every now and then.

Anyways, I feel I have addressed all the points here to the best of my ability. I still see nothing wrong with the spar or the melee item. If there is a point I did miss, please let me know.  

Jester my point is why is useless crap like a melee spar being released before key features? Alot of people are pissed off.

More melees will be added in the future, such as lightsaber. These may be faster, as I stated this is to satisfy a taste of the big picture we are working on. I am noticing some people are used to how other servers just put something out and leave it. Here at zone, most of our updates lead to things, we give you tastes of what is to come. If you are angry about this update, look at the possibilities as to what may be here in the future, not just what is there. Think outside the box, hopefully you guys can adapt to this way of thinking because we would love to keep providing updates at this pace for you all.

Again, it is released because that portion is finished. What JWD is working on for squad spar 1v1 2v2 3v3 gun spar is complex and will take some time and effort before it is done. The thing it, you KNOW it is coming, you just choose to ignore the future and fixate on the present.

Here are the options as I see it.

1) You get a large good update every week or so with nothing in between.
2) You get a large good update every week or so with small stuff in between.  

I also agree with Imprint's criticism.

LMAO!! Do you not see the irony in this?!

Over and over in era history, players have been told to expect new and exciting content; over and over it is eventually forgotten about or pushed back and replaced with some lesser update.

has been promised, and we are still waiting. I don't want to call the staff team lazy,...it has honestly been about 6-8 months since a great, well thought out update. Most of the stuff listed was supposed to be expected during Summer, but now it is Fall. So please, stop giving us these updates that entertain us for 30 minutes - 1 day, and fufil the promises made to us about the updates that YOU announced and got us excited for.
We are waiting.

Finally realize what it is like to be on the receiving end of "Update Complaint" right?  

No one said you had to play zone a spend all your money and participate in spars.

Yes, I am learning a lot during my time as staff. I had apologized to Snk a while back about that stuff however.  

Still don't see why the new melee cost more than the top gun atm lol.
