me and kal are looking for people to play with, etc.. Its a free online game unless your in singapore. For some reason they are charging sinaporians soon.

www.gunbound.net

download it, 91mb, kick ass.

How it works:

The game ISNT sexist... Games that say "No Chicks" means no Newbies because the newbie avatar thing is a little baby chicken..

~~~~~~INTRO~~~~~~
Playing Gunbound
What are zones

When you start up Gunbound you will come to the world lobby. From here you can choose which zone you want to play in. The zones are where the games are played, where you can chat with other players and buy items for your avatar.
At the moment there are only two zones on the English server. Zone 1 is a regular zone, all item stats work, and zone 2 is a non stat server, bonus attributes you gain from your items will not work in this zone.
Just double click which ever takes your fancy.

Once you join a zone you arrive in the main lobby
In the top left is the list of games that are currently being played or waiting for people to join, click the waiting button underneath this to show list of all games that are waiting for people to join. Above this is your information, it tells you how much gold you have and your GP
The bottom left is the chat window, there are 8 chat channels and you can change channels by clicking on the 1-8 numbered icons above the chat window.
Bottom right shows a list of players in the chat room and in the top right is your buddylist, this isn't working at the moment but I'll explain about it later.
And at the very bottom are some buttons. Buddylist turns the buddylist window on or off, avatar takes you to the avatar screen where you can buy or sell items or give gifts, the create button lets you create a game and the join button lets you join a game



Joining a game

Choose a game and double click on it and you will be taken to the game screen.
On the left and right sides of the screen are the teams, you can switch which team you are on by clicking the change button at the bottom. Between the two teams in the centre of the screen are the game options, these are set by the host.
Top row
Chosen map to play on. You can specify a certain map or let the game choose a random map. There are x to choose from
Second row
Game styles.

Solo
The aim is to destroy your opponents. If members of your team are still alive when you die you get to play jackpot, when the items in the jackpot window match up you can drop these on your enemies or team mates
Tag
In tag you get a second mobile as a tag partner, this only has half energy though. Switch between mobiles as many times as you like by pressing F7 but remember if one of your mobiles is destroyed then you are out.
Jewel
Little jewels fall from the sky, each has a number over its head, you have to destroy them. You cannot damage your opponents in this game but you can hinder them by shooting them and if they fall off the screen they do not come back. The first team to reach one hundred points win
Score
In this mode your team is given a certain number of lives depending on how many are playing. When someone dies the team loses a life and the dead player can pick a point on the map to respawn, be careful as your mobile is affected by wind when it respawns so you may get blown off course or off the screen.
When all a teams lives are used up then the game ends
Sudden Death


After a certain amount of time sudden death kicks in, you cannot use any items you have during sudden death and one of the following will apply

Double
You shoot twice
Bigbomb death
Shot does more damage
SSdeath
You can use your SS weapon which will also recharge faster
Disabled
Nothing happens
Third row
Jackpot settings. These can be set to all, offence items only or disabled.

In the bottom left of the screen are the mobiles, just click on the one you would like to use, and in the bottom right are the items. These are free but you only have six slots available for items. Choose which ones you want to use, a more detailed description is given when you put your mouse cursor over them.
When you are done click on the ready button so the host can start the game.

In the bottom left of the screen are the mobiles, just click the one you would like to use, if you choose random you have a slight change of being able to use on of the bonus mobiles, Dragon and Knight. The greyed out mobile has not been implemented yet, we hear that is will be similar to the NakMachine but ise lightning based attacks.

In the bottom right of the screen are the items, all of these are free, the numbers represent the delay that item will incur when used. You have six slots set aside for items, the items take up either one of two slots each.


------------------------------CONTROLS!
The left and right arrow keys control your movement, as you move your tank the movement bar decreases and once this is used up you will no longer be able to move during your turn.
Up and down arrows change your angle of fire.
Space bar fires your weapon. Hold down and release to fire, watch the bar at the bottom of the screen to gauge the power of your shots.
Tab changes weapon. You have 3 weapons, 1, 2 and special shot.
F1-F6 are for any items you have chosen to use, you can also activate these by clicking them with the mouse.
F7 switches mobiles during a tag match
F8 Skips your turn
F9 toggles chat modes
F10 opens your buddy list
F11 takes a screenshot
Esc opens the ingame menu
You can move the screen around by holding down the right mouse button and moving the mouse
------------------------------DELAY!
Delay is the time it will take until your next turn, the higher the delay you incur the longer you will have to wait. Every action you take during your turn incurs a certain amount of delay and if you can learn how to use delay to your advantage then you have a better chance of beating your opponent.

Move as little as possible, take your turn as fast as you can and don't use your more powerful weapons and items unless you are sure of hitting your opponent directly, killing them or bunging them and you will have more turns than your opponent

~_~_~_~_~_~_~HINTS
Don't buy ANY weak items such as soccer headbands.. Your space marine suit has you covered for awhile.
High Angle shots are harder to land but give better rewards
DON't shoot ur team!
Winnins doesnt matter, gold and GP do
Gold=Cash GP=Game Points. Gold you can buy avatar items with GP you get better rankings with, such as axes.
Jewlicides are lame, only do them if you are close to getting an item, or you'll end up being a low level forever!!
Items dont matter much until totally maxed out. Don't whine about having all chicklettes against gold axes.
