Out of curiosity, is there anyone on this forum who still plays this game? (or at least used to play it?)

If you don't know what GunZ: The Duel is, the best game I can compare it to is Super Smash Bros. Melee, if it was a third person shooter instead of a platform fighter. Or maybe Fortnite if it was made by a Korean developer in 2005.

The game was most infamous for its crazy movement that was a result of dozens of bugs and glitches with the game's engine. They called it K-style because Korean players discovered it first when the game was in beta, and named it after themselves. Most of it involved sword slashes and weapon switches to cancel other animations, allowing you to move really quickly -- do stuff like bounce off of walls and fly through the air. The creation of this game can only be described as catching lightning in a bottle. A complete accident that worked out in the end.

Here's one of my favorite GunZ montages:






Anyways, does anyone here still actively play GunZ? I know MAIET went out of business back in 2015, and it's only really available on private servers now. If you don't play it anymore, what are you up to nowadays? If you still play, what pservers are you on?

I'm sure there's bound to be some oldies around here who remember GunZ

FPS games seem to have explore such interesting concepts but also seem to die so quickly.

Why can't there be a big Gunz, tribes and quake scene god dammit -,-
The harder it becomes, the more you should focus on the basics.

What a nostalgia blast! I played a lot of this back in the mid 2000s. The mechanics of the game felt really nice but I unfortunately I wasn't mechanically gifted enough to really play the k-style. It was crazy how fast people moved in the air while controlling their weapons.

it's hard for high-skill-floor+high-skill-cap games are super hard to approach. all the people left playing those games are all pros or veterans -- you hop in as a new player and you just get shitstomped for months. it's a damn shame, but that's just how it is

Muscle memory can be trained, it's just a matter of dedication at the end of the day. I started playing about a year ago and i'm finally reaching a point where i can keep up with people who have been playing this game for the better half of a decade or more
