How to get the game 2. About the game/How to play 3. Controls 4. Frequently Asked questions, Q and A's. 5. Copyright, Credits, How to contact me. ------------------------ ------------------------ 1. How to get the game: To get the game you are going to need to go to www.gunzonline.com, then select American (International) version, click "JOIN" at the top right corner and register, go to downloads and install the game, probaly would be smartest to download on your desktop...) so there is a shortcut. Then click on the newly downloaded shortcut on your desktop titled "GunzInternational" and install the game. Once you install that, click on the shortcut to bring up the updater, click "Play" and you now have the game saved on your computer, which you can acess whenever you log on, it will be reconized by a silver square with a big black "Z" in the middle of it. People with slower computers have been complaining about installing the game and it not working, being able to play that is. You need a fast computer, and it probaly wont work on a lot of laptops. If you have windows XP and a fairly new computer, you shouldn't have too much of a problem, the worst that will happen is sometimes when you lag you will fall out of the game. Note: You cannot store buy this game. ------------------------------------- ------------------------------------- 2. About the game/How to play: In "Gunz: The Duel", you create your own character, from 4 hair styles, and face styles, and from various types of guns you will start off with.(Note: You cannot change what your characters facial features look like later on in the game, so choose wisely...) Gunz is a free online game, which you do not have to buy, and there is no monthly fee. It is a MMO, which is why I will be updating this FAQ a lot, because MMO's are known to change frequently, there is 6 servers you can choose from, Once you choose from one, you can change as much as you want whenever you log in, and once you have made a character on one server, it CAN be used throughout all of the other servers, the character is permenatly on your account, unless you delete him, to do so, instead of clicking "Select character" Select "Delete" which is right next to it, it will be represented by a grave. Aswell as servers there are also channels. Now, select your character you just made and select a channel, first off it will automatically put you in a random channel, put you can select "Channel" from the top of the screen to change that. To join a game, double click it, or click it once and join the big "JOIN". If the game hasn't started yet select "READY" so the host can start the game. If it is already in action, select "INTRUSION". If you don't see any games you find interesting, you can create your own, by going back to your channel's lobby, and selecting "CREATE GAME". You can name the game, give it a password people need to know to join (This is usefull really only if you just want to play with a friend.) Change the game mode, and the number of players, from 4 to 16. Depending on your class/type of guns, you will have different moves to select from, use your sword/knife, guns, or grenades, med packs, ext. Run around and kill people that's names are red when you put your cursor over them, if their names are blue, it is a member of your team, do not shoot! Friendly fire may be on and you can cause damage to your teammate. -Note:- when throwing grenades beware! They can do extreme damage to your character. When attacking someone, if they have a big red sign over their head, this means they are baddly lagging or their computer is frozen and they cannot move. If you shoot them this will do no damage to them. If they have a dialouge box above their head this means that they're currently typing, if you shoot them while they are, they may complain and call you a "Type Killing n00b" or something stupid like that, so it's best to avoid type killing unless you really need the experience points/ bounty that comes with it. A good strategy when going head to head with someone, is to dive forward if you're using a gun, and aim for their head. You do more damage if you kill them with a head shot. If you want to get around fast, there is something refered to as "Flying", take out your sword and jump up in the air and dash forward again and again. Also you will see people running up walls and along them with swords, and even jabbing their swords into the wall sticking onto it. To do this, hold "W" and jump up agaisnt the wall, you will start running agaisnt it. This is usefull when there is a big gap in the floor, refered to as a "Passage to hell" you will need to run along the wall to avoid falling in. If you fall in, you will lose experience points. To jab your sword into the wall, do what you did before ,and hold the right click, once you release it your character will let go. To get a extra boost when jumping, use your sword and swing it in the air or agaisnt the wall. Once you kill enough people, you will get experience points towards leveling up, and bounty. Bounty is currency used for killing characters to buy new things. To buy new things while in the lobby, at the top click "STORE" select something you have enough bounty for, you can buy daggers, swords, duel swords, guns, shoes, shirts, and trousers. Some items you need to be a certain level to equip. To equip go back to the lobby and select "EQUIP" next to the store, drag the items over to select them. Some things that you buy, require you to be a certain level though, you will see this at the right side of the screen. How to make a clan? To make a clan you must be level 10. A lot of people always ask how to add someone to your friends list, to do this you must right click their name in the game lobby, and click add friend. That's all you really need to know about the game, if you know all this you probaly wont have any questions when playing, now all you need to do is get the controls down and practice until you are one of the best. ------------------------------------------------------ ------------------------------------------------------ 3.
