Honorable Mention:
*) Island of the Dolls "Isla de las Munecas"
http://cakeheadlovesevil.wordpress.c...-of-the-dolls/
Rejected: Real place, creepy as all ****.
Adding to this wonderful list:
The Orange Archipelago:
Would have made master minds way too powerful, possibly even given them the power to overthrow Arachnos. Also, reports indicate that any squad of Arachnos operatives sent in lost all competence to fulfill their mission. Jokingly referred to as "The Idiot Ball Islands" by some operatives.

There! Shameless self-promotion of ideas! D:
The Islands of Langerhans. They decided not to release them when the "Gland" AT proved too hard to balance.

This was going to be in the in-game rationale and origin for the clown-summoning MM powerset.

They all laughed at me when I said I wanted to be a comedian.
But I showed them, and nobody's laughing at me now!

I would have said Isla Nublar:

But we kind of have that...
What?? No 'Mokey Island?' Goodness, man, I am appalled.

LOL, glad I checked to see if anyone posted that first.

I had a hard time thinking of what zone you were talking about until I remembered Redside Hami-raids are possible. I've never participated in one, though. But I guess that counts as a new zone. How much traffic does it see, other than a raid or two per week?|

Since CoV was published, the only other "new" non-coop zone would be the Revamped Faultline. Granted, there was already a zone named Faultline before, in the same location, but it certainly wasn't the same as the new Faultline, nor was it nearly as popular. Old Faultline was like Boomtown for popularity. I remember one hunt mission from a Security Chief, a few explore badges, the occasional Babbage and maybe a brief fly-through on a TF. Am I missing any other content that took place in there?
Gilligan's Island.

Rejected: No one felt like writing what would be a three hour TF, with a minimum team size of seven after all the whining about Positron and Quaterfield.

And Grandville, which is villain only. And Ouroboros, which has a version for each side.

What about that Pacific island with all the snakes?
We have enough snakes as is.

Also, all story arcs on this island just railroad players straight to the end.

Total Drama Island
The reasoning given for this one was "That's what Pocket D is for"
As we know, redside has fewer zones than blueside.
Here is a list of the top seven rejected zones to add to the Etoille Isles chain.
7) Island of the Blue Dolphins

Rejected: Sounds too much like a strip club.
6) Bikini Atoll
http://library.umkc.edu/spec-col/ww2...ges/96-655.gif
Rejected: Irradiated. Also, do villianesses need more excuse to dress skimpy?
5) Isle of Conquest.

Rejected: No one wanted to listen to broadcast there.

1) Fantasy Island

Rejected: Montague Castanella is already busy somewhere else ingame.
