GUNZ is a Korean shooter game, which is currently of June 08, 2005 in beta.
It's a shooter game with rpg elements such as experience points and items.
Very Matrix like stuns and moves can be done in GUNZ. The game system is
similar to Gunbound that you can create a game or join other people's game.
GUNZ can be downloaded at http://www.gunzonline.com/

3. General Information
==============================================================================
3.1 Starting GUNZ
==================
When you have logged in into the servers, you will first need to create a
character. Pick a name and customize your character's looks. After, choose one
of the five classes.
None of the choices effect your character at all besides the equipment they
start with. It's highly recommended that you pick the Travia Gun Fighter
because they have dual SMGs which are the best for starting off.
There's no difference at all between the classes except for the weapons you
start with. You can always buy other weapons if you don't like the ones you
start with, but the general agreement is that the guy with the two SMGs is
the best choice to begin with. So pick him, as he gets the best weapons for
starting off.
After creating your character, you will be at the main screen of GUNZ. From
here you can create a game, join a game, or go to another channel. By
winning matches you earn experience points which increase your level
and bounty which is money used in the shop to buy better equipment. You can
equip your bought items at the equip screen.
There are 5 types of gameplay modes in Gunz.
==============================================================================
Deathmatch- A deathmatch game, free for all
Team Deathmatch- A Team based deathmatch with two different teams. When a
person is killed; they stay dead until the next round similar to
Counter-Strike.
Gladiator- A deathmatch game, free for all. However, only melee weapons
are allowed.
Team Gladiator- A Team based deathmatch with two different teams. However,
only melee weapons are allowed. Similar to Team Deathmatch.
Assassin- Team based game where you kill a specific member of the other team.
They will glow purple and have a purple bar behind their name at the
scoreboard.
==============================================================================
Health Icons, which look like a red cross, recover either 100% of your health
or 30%.
Armor Icons, which looks like a green shield, recover either 100% of your
armor or 30%.
Ammo Icons, which look like a yellow bullet, gives all your guns more ammo.
==============================================================================
3.2 The Weapons of "GUNZ"
==============================================================================
Swords and daggers have two kinds of attacks. The primary attack of both is a
slash. Pressing it rapidly will allow you to chain a combo. Holding primary
attack will charge up your weapon making it glow. If you connect a attack
while it's glowing, that person will take extra damage and is stunned for
a second.
The secondary attack of the sword is a uppercut which is slow,
however if it connects, your opponent will fly up and land on the ground
stunned for a while.
Swords can be used to block bullets by pressing shift. Your character will
hold their sword up and all bullets aim at you will be blocked. You will
stay in this stance for around three seconds where you must refresh it.
Bullets aim at your leg region cannot be blocked.
Daggers' secondary attack is a bit different from the swords'. The daggers'
secondary attack is a fast charging thrust. This attack is slow but the
distance covered and if its sheer fast starting speed makes it worth it.
However, if you miss, the recovery is huge, enough for someone to fill
your body up with lead.
To recover from the Melee secondary attack, hit space right as you been hit
by them. If your timing is good, your character will do a flip and land back
on their feet.
Gunz is not a realistic shooter, jumping, running and other such actions do
not impair how accurate you shoot. You should do many stunts and dodge to
make it harder for your opponent to hit you.
Pistols
-------
Tend to be fairly accurate and do decent damage, however they have a slow
rate of fire and hold a small clip size.
Revolvers
--------
Revolvers do more damage than pistols, but their clip size is about halved.
Around 1 bullet of a revolver do 3 times the damage of a pistol bullet. Very
slow to shoot and reload.
Shotguns
--------
Have massive damage up to 120 damage per shot, even more if all the
bullets hit. They have a slow rate of fire and holds a tiny amount of
bullets per clip. They are very non-accurate if not used within short range.
SMGs
----
They're good if you use them at short or middle range. They do excellent
damage, but they are very inaccurate at long range. Fast rate of fire.
Rifles
------
Is the most accurate gun in the game. King of long range. The bullets always
go where the dot is. It's the bad gun to use at close range because of its
slower rate of fire, and that it cannot be sprayed because the bullets
always go straight where you aim them at.
Rockets Launchers
-----------------
Are slow at everything. You run slower, they shoot slow, and have a small
clip size. The splash and the damage of it is, however very high.
Machine Guns
------------
Have the largest clip size and do slightly slower damage than
most smgs and rifles. You move slower when wielding this gun. Best used at
medium range.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Side Items
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Frag grenades
-------------
Are cheap, powerful and they don't weight a lot. The damage is
high if a person takes a direct hit. The blast radius seems to be very
small however. I highly recommend to equip this if you have any leftover
weight.
Smoke grenades
--------------
Blinds the spot throw at with smoke. I don't see any use for this since
it requires over three grenades just to fully cover an area.
Flashbang grenades
------------------
Anyone near the range of it fully blinds the person looking at it. They
can't see anything or hear anything for over 3 seconds. Pretty good, but
anyone that got flash would just dodge all over. Nice for throwing this into
a crowd and gunning down everyone.
Medical Kits
------------
They start to hold two med kits and up to four in the advance kits. They heal
about 15% health for each one. They do weight a lot and you can't refill
them in any other way than die.
Repair Kits
-----------
Same thing as the medical kit, but they recover armor not health.
==============================================================================
3.3 Controls, and stunts
==============================================================================
WASD are the buttons to move your character. The mouse is used to look around,
and to do your primary and secondary attacks. The shift key is used while
welding a sword to block bullets, and space is to jump.
To do a dodge, hit either W, S, D, A twice. Your character will do a dodge
move in that direction.
However, if you have a sword or dagger out, you will dash, not roll in that
direction.
Stunts are very important to get to unreachable places and makes it harder for
people to shoot at you. Stunts are very important in Gunz to surive. Master
using them at all times.
WALL RUN:
--------
Run into a wall at a 40 degrees angle, and press, and than hold jump. You will
walk across the walk until it ends or if you press jump ending it.
WALL JUMP:
---------
Be near a wall and press jump. You will do a flip off the wall.
UP WALL RUN:
-----------
Run directly into a wall and press, hold jump. You will run up across, the
wall useful for reaching high places.
WALL CLIMB:
----------
Hold secondary attack while having a melee weapon out in midair when you're
near a wall. Your character will thrust their melee weapon into the wall
hanging in their. By holding move forward and pressing jump and doing
another wall climb, you can climp to higher places. Can also be used to
prevent yourself from falling into a hole.
CANCELS:
-------
Canceling is doing a primary attack with a melee weapon. They allows you to
do another move. Do a wall jump and cancel; dash back to the wall and do
another wall jump. Another one is jumping off a high place and dash, cancel,
dash ect. Cancel is a advance move and is vital to dodging bullets and
getting to places swiftly.
Once you mastered canceling, you could start with a wall run, cancel it and
dash to another wall where you wall run there. Mastering cancels is a
important move in advance Gunz playing.

4.0 Gameplay tips and guide
==============================================================================
Your character can carry up to 100 weight of items. You cannot equip more
than 100 weight of items. Weight becomes a major issue when you reach lv 18+.
Careful balance of weapon, armor, and off items is vital to having a good
character.
Levels 1-10
-----------
Play a few games to get used to Gunz. The bounty you earn should first be
used to buy dual Renards if you didn't pick Travia Gun Fight for some reason.
Buy a secondary weapon, a pistol, rifle or even a shotgun. The rest of the
bounty you earn should be used to upgrade your armor. Buy the health plus
series armor since if your health is zero, you're dead. Any other bounty
earn should be saved up for the lv 10 tier armor.
Levels 10-20
------------
Continue to upgrade your armor to the next level at this point. At lv 12,
buy the Dual Walcom SS smgs. At lv 18, buy the Maxwell LX30 rifle. Both
of these guns are very good for a long time. You can equip both of these
guns if you don't equip rings and use a dagger. You shouldn't upgrade
your melee weapons if you don't play Gladiator mode a lot. The damage
upgrade and the less delay is not worth the cost of the bounty. Weight is
also increase as the sword level increases.
General Gameplay Tips
------------------------------------
*Look for group of people fighting and shoot them after they have weakend
each other.
*Never run straight at someone if they are shooting at you. You will take
massive damage if you do so.
*If you need to reach someone far away, if there's open space do a wall
run and cancel it right when you reach them/
*If a sword user is after you, aim at their legs as the defend move doesn't
block bullets shot at the legs.
*Dodge, dodge, dodge!
*Use your mouse to look over corners and ambush people
*You can recover from melee weapons secondary attacks by pressing space as
it hits you
*Learn to control your gun. If your crosshair is not even near someone,
don't keep on holding the fire button.
*Do not get involve in melee fights, chances are that you will not finish
a person before someone else comes your way.
*A massive strike with a melee weapon can easily be followed up by a shotgun
blast, or 5-10 smg//rifle shots. A massive strike has longer range than a
regular strike.

4.1 Advance Stunts and Gameplay Moves
==============================================================================
==============================================================================
5.5 Leg Armor
==============================================================================
"Whenever I see somebody during a game, they don’t move, shoot or attack, and
my attacks do no damage. I was wondering why. Thanks in advance!"
Lag, GUNZ isn't server based, it's not like games like CS, Half-Life, or
Battlefield. It's similar to Gunbound.
