View Full Version : What the heck happened?

I leave for a few months and I come back, here's what I find:

1) Bunch of hackers. Now, this was a problem in iGunZ too, one of the reasons I stopped playing. It's a shame, because I know a few, "friends" who look at Ijji GunZ and say, "I can't wait to start hacking GunZ again!" but when asked why they just shrug and say, "because it's fun." Now hacking is rampent through every game I played, and hackers even say, "Oh i'm just getting to level 50, once i'm 50 i'll stop". Then theres the people who START hacking because they get owned or another player is hacking. This wasn't an issue before I left.

2) Hackers are terrible at the game. When provoked, one challenged me saying they will stop hacking. When he tried to K-style I poked him once with my dagger and he fell off the side of Castle. It wasn't even a challenge. Then he starts doing the regular walking backwards spamming shotguns, but simply walking and moving left and right and he misses every shot completely. For fun i right click and lunge him, and it actually knocked him over. He could barely BF which made things even easier. This guy is saying he's going to get to level 50 and then 'play legit' but he can't even beat me, a rusty D-styler who is wallking around pokeing him with a dagger and winning?

3) Almost every player I see is a Sword/Double Shotgun user. I already knew this was coming, because of iGunZ. However, instead of the players that actually made me move, I have level 51s who can't even BF and I can literally dagger lock in the middle of a room, which makes them call me a 'dagger noob'. Whats worse, locking someone who K-styles with a sword and double shotguns, or being locked in the middle of a room by someone with a dagger when you had a sword and were trying to BF? This is nothing short of pathetic. I mean, I know not everyone is this bad; there was some awesome players a few months ago (If you count awesome being they could DBF/SS with spamming shotguns), and I have yet to jump into duel rooms because of the hackers, but there was harder people in a 16 Berserker Deathmatch on Castle then in Duel Rooms, and i'm literally breaking their BF with a single tap of the left mouse button.

I'm amazed to see how fast this game degraded in such a short amount of time. S4 League can't come soon enough.

1) This is what happens when you inadequately deal with hackers: they spread.

2) There's a reason they're hacking. It's not because they wtfpwn.

3) Same as 2. Shotguns deliver the highest damage unaimed shots in the game, with the least risk to yourself. Thus if you suck, you have the highest chance of amassing enough damage to kill someone while still maintaining k-style movement. It has a single style of play: get close and spray, hope they run into a lucky shot and die.

#3 is also why the noobs have so many complaints about premium meds: because it's hard work spraying shotguns in someone's general direction, and accumulating enough damage to kill them. It's also why I refuse to play vet+ town, etc. Because their lack of map powerups gives undue credit to shotgun sprayers; they'll eventually take you down, one pellet at a time. It might take them five deaths to do it, but it'll happen. And 5-1 is so much worse than 5-0.

yep hackers are everywhere, and just because a person can't butterfly doesn't mean they suck or they hack. There are other ways of playing you know.

I wish more people could see it this way, then this game would be perfect.

I'm a D-styler myself, but I was mainly talking about Sword/Double Shotgun people who try their best to BF but can't.

I don't have a problem with people that have double shotguns. But, I have a problem with double shotgun sprayers. Yes, I consider spamming two shotties spraying because it requires no skill to hold fire while pressing reload + switch weapon, just like it takes no skill to spray and pray with an automatic.

I don't really mind it anymore, I just stopped dueling. Doubel Shotguns is almost useless on Castle Berserker, and I haven't seen any l337 K-stylers that I can't Block-tap and shotgun. I'm starting to have fun again, but the hackers are annoying. They really do think they are l337, constantly saying, "LAWLZ NOOBS", "Cry some more, noobs" the list just goes on. I mean, the GunZ community was horrible before, now it's just full of crazy hackers who wish they were good.

I avoid duels like a plague now.
