True, but like this, I can use the Maxwell LX30 or whatever it's called, and it's also a sign of how much ass I've kicked in the past... well, week. I think I've been playing it for about a week...

The Maxwell rifle is insane. I'd call it overpowered, but then I realized it isn't thanks to the level limits.


[edit] Ooh, you're into advanced techniques, eh? Well, you're trying to be, at least... Lemme tell you, with a decent ping, those do NOTHING to me. You know the jump-dash-jump-dash thing? It's much easier to JUST dash, and it's faster as well. Yes, it's true! I was trying out some of that advanced stuff earlier. Some of it makes you... well... yeah... But most of them can easily be pwned by pure accuracy on my part. Besides, I think it's really poor game design that. Worst thing is, Maiet are acting like it's intentional.. apparently,  your level of skill is reflected off how many hours you've spent trying to fuse annoying key combinations into your muscle memory...

Is there some sort of etiquette with Gunz that a person should know about? Is there some sort of drastically overpowered attack or weapon that people frown upon being overused?

Hah, if there is, I'll use it.

I'm pretty shameless when it comes to online games.

I got banned from Counter-Strike permanently for hacking XD

Not really. TONS of techniques, though. Check GameFaQs or the threads on the official forum.

Most important thing one needs to know, is about "advanced techniques", which are virtually just random glitches, but that people have learned to string together to lethal combos, such as the Slashshot and the Butterfly. Even worse is... the game developers obviously find those glitches cool, and consider them not only valid game tactics, but pretty much necessary... which sucks... playing a game, other than rhythm-based ones, should NOT involve having your fingers cramping up from too much keypressing...

Yeah, they should remove cancels from fighting games too
and powersliding from racing games as well

and remove the better statistics teams from sports games, make them all equal
just make all games with directional pads and 3 buttons, no comboes.
