Stay indoors this weekend, because Zone is having a big weekend full of Events! The prizes for these events will be Red Pistoles, Double Shots and more. There will be a total of eight big events, four on each day, and while you wait there will be races and other fun events (I heard there will be big prizes randomly hosted).

See you there!

Are you in a guild looking to show your stuff? You'll sure be in luck this week! Graal's best will be gathering for Unholy Nation's first ever Guild Spar Tourney on Wednesday, March 10th at 6:30 PM EST. The winning guild will receive 25 EP and a statue in the Hall of Champions.

To enter, have a representative from your guild contact Allona either by PM or through Unholy Nation's new mail service (her account name is ohshutup55). Each guild team has only four players, so your guild can have a second team - but variety will make things more interesting!

So, do you think your guild can make it to the top? Sign up today if you've got what it takes.

Zone has released the flashpistol on Zone to trials and gold players. The flashpistol shoots Halloween bats and was created by Codein and we adjusted the power and freezetime slightly.
For those of you familiar with the gravitron, the weapon is quite similar to that in terms of the spread of bullets. Hallogrenades and greengrenades have been released, as well as the pumpkinrifle, and ghostrifle.

Halloween effects have been added to all dropships, and the effects were minimized on the spar dropship to avoid disrupting gameplay.

New heads and bodies have been added to the Zone outfit selectors. Along with the new heads and bodies, we are announcing an event for this coming weekend! Saturday, August 15th, there will be an event hosted by MagikMasterMind. More information about the event will be posted during the week in this thread.

As the image made by our GFX staff shows, Zone has had a large set of updates today.

- A new Iricia base selection system has been added which allows you to choose a base to spawn to. You can spawn to any base that your team currently controls.

- In addition to the base selection system, a focus system has been implemented on the sparring planet. The system makes it easier to focus on certain parts of the sparring planet.

- The last update (and the largest one) is the new squads system. The squads system allows players to create squards or join their friends' squads (much like guilds). Squads can also participate in certain events together.

All throughout this weekend, there will be events on Zone. A special event will be held on Saturday at 12:00 EST (17:15 server time) by Donark for a twinblade.

Thanks to the Zone staff for the 4th of July updates. Flags were added to the bases, cookies were temporarily enabled with a limit of two, and the jetpack flames were changed to be red, white, and blue. Thanks in particular to Minomato and Novice for their contributions to allow these updates to happen. More updates will come soon! Have a happy 4th of July!

Zone has been updated today to prevent against base laming and to make game play more interesting. On Iricia, if your base is under attack you now will spawn randomly on your team's side of the map. The change to make game play more interesting was to show how much health is taken when you attack an opponent and how much experience you gain when you kill someone.

In addition to new hairs and bodies added to the outfit terminals, new events team commands were added which allow for new types of events.

An example of one of the new types of events is when the first person to achieve 25 kills on Iricia wins a prize. Bigtime008 was the winner of the first of many of these events.

On top of all of that, a new part of the news system was created and added today! The news system now displays who has gotten the most kills within the last hour.
