How many APM in GunZ ?

Seriously... I think anyone who's played GunZ for more than a few weeks had an average APM well above any starcraft 2 APM monkey could ever dream of :D
By the clack smack cracking of my thumbs, something wicked this may comes.

Lmfao any 3rd party programs that count APM in any game? Id love to find out my apm... ive played that game from 15-20 years old, i bet its over 350.


Hopefully blizzard leaves in some glitches intentionally... glitches make every game a little bit better, and make practicing more broad... Gives a bit more of a learning curve... maybe then people will stop bitching so much as to how its so 'dumbed down' and 'simplistic', after they learn some forms of advanced play, and think themselves a higher tier.

Google "APM detector". I checked my APM today and it easily went to 400 - 450 with passive relaxed play (well I wasn't walking but you know what I mean). Spamming something RHS with DFS can get you well around 600.

haha, i used to spam locked flash-steps until the action started for gunfights

i doubt the apm goes above 300 average, considering how fast you have to select-box and hotkey switch in starcraft to get that actual number---also considering flash-step is basically (4 keyboard strokes and 1 mouse click) 5 actions a second,
but on peak it should be as high as any peaking player on BW

really any game, like street fighter at high level can get very intense with button presses-necessary or not

@Fizban As with any other game in CS you need to know the game perfectly to have a chance at it.. It's just one of the things CS needs in addition to a host of other things..

Valve obviously considered bunnyhopping a glitch. From 1.3 to 1.6, they removed bunnyhopping.

It's back in Source, but you need a lot less feeling to do it in Source. Duckrunning is not possible to ignore at a high level of play in 1.6. most players don't break from duckrunning at all nowadays in the modern, 2010 CS, when it comes down to a clutch situation.

Bunnyhopping is a glitch in Quake that made it an amazing game. Bunnyhopping is a glitch in CS.. that got removed.

Bunny hopping was fucking stupid to play against, as is the current duck jumping to fuck with models. What about the old style flashes? There's plenty of silly tricks that would improve the game if they were removed. I'm willing to bet anyone that thinks bunnyhopping was the best thing ever didn't actually play competitive CS when it was around. You just thought it was awesome to go long A on D2 in 5 seconds, but you didn't deal with the kind of retardedness that ensued in serious place.


Bunny hopping has enhanced every single FPS it's ever been fortunate enough to grace and CS without it is simply bad.

May I introduce you to the Quake III engine? Which till today I believe is the most competitive FPS engine around thanks to strafejumping. I believe I took well over 2 days of practice spread out over a month to master the basics of strafejumping. And even then in heated battle situations I still panic and my strafejumping goes awry. Quake III Arena for example requires more than just a godly aim, there are so many dimensions in a battle such as battle awareness, ammo conservation, weapon use, map control, etc.



I'm surprised this wasn't brought up because the fundamentals to the Q3 engine was the abuse and exploitation of the strafejump/bunnyhop glitch that literally pushed the skill ceiling so high. Not to mention other semi-competitive games also spawned from the engine, RtcW/Enemy Territory, Jedi Knights II are just a couple of examples.

Can I just point out that games like Halo have almost no bugs and have sold as many copies as BW, and are more well known as well as more widely played.

SC2 will be more well known, and more widely played. Whether it becomes an e-sports phenomenon is, as you said, up to the players. Blizzard is doing all they can to make this game appealing to everyone, even pro players.

I know this post is old, but there are now many things like this that have been discovered. The void ray shift-clicking trick is devastating and probably overpowered, but it still shows that there are still things to discover.

secret hint for shooter lovers who are looking for a hardcore game with many room for free movement.

yes, i agree with you too, in bw there are still a lot of "BUG"s like walking material, this is impossible in reality but it make the game more interesting!

Haha lol it's probably true. The current keyboard isn't able to keep up with the speed of my presses when I play Gunz right now.

Wrong

Halo: CE had around 5+ bugs that improved competive play(double beatdown, backpack reload etc)
Halo 2 just got crazy with the bugs. There were bugs were you could shoot faster with guns, beatdown faster, reload faster. Improved competitive play dramatically
Halo 3 has none really.

Great post. Unfortunately some companies have to learn from their mistakes. The 'exploits' definitely make the game more complex. It's a paradox to programmers.

Animation cancelling isn't a bug, it's a limitation of the gaming engine

Agreed. In gunz your apm will spike all over the place, but will never get that high on average, because you're not really doing anything in between.

This thread made me want to play gunz again
I have an ice-cold beer, everything is possible.

Hey, i know bumping old threads îs sometimes frowned upon but i was wondering if any TLers still play gunz? Any chatroom/server?

I just started playing it and it îs fun as hell.. Trying to learn some k-style now, but damn, îs it difficult..

Probably should just start/revive a thread in Sports & Games. This thread is more about SC2 than Gunz.

True, i actually thought this thread was in general or sports & games..

Plus, those threads are like 4 years old.. I thought reviving a hread that îs a few months was better..
