<div class="IPBDescription">Think... "Worms."</div> Download: <a href='http://www.planetgunbound.com/index.php?page=download' target='_blank'>http://www.planetgunbound.com/index.php?page=download</a>
This is a download site to get the game. The original game site is in Korean - this site provides english installers and extremely useful information.
The english installers forward you to the english gunbound servers, which are content-updated every while. This game is overflowing with people! (Most of which are very mannered).

It's almost like the popular game, "Worms".
But in this you start out with nothing - just a plain Avatar and a vehicle of your choice (you can change before games - it's really simple). Each vehicle, (or "Mobile"), has it's strengths and weaknessess, and it's own unique attacks. Each vehicle has three attacks, Primary, secondary and special.

Each attack has it's own attack power. But the more you use your more powerful attacks, the more you have to wait for your turn. "Delay", is what it's called. And the best part is it's free, and Multiplayer. The more enemies you defeat, the more gold you get. (You can also aquire gold by doing fancy shots, aswell).

With this gold you can upgrade your Avatar with over 300 diffrent clothing. Each clothing gives you special abillities, from Extra life, to shorter Delay.
All you have to do is download and sign up. And it's free!
It's a simplistic, yet suprisingly deep game.

Enjoy! <!--emo&:D--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/biggrin.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='biggrin.gif'><!--endemo-->

    I stopped playing gunbound once it started screwing my graphics up, and the only way to fix them was to reboot.

    Ah, I'm a double gold axe, with a full space themed set, and I still enjoy playing the game alot. Especially since there are 2 new zones to scope out (axes only, and the about to come out newbies only). Find me on IRC for a match, my name in GB is NessEarthboun.

    Bottom left has weapons. Press tab to switch. Weapon 1 is usually a bit weak, but it has a short delay. Weapon 2 is stronger and has a longer delay, weapon three is SS or special shot or super or whatever you wanna call it, it differs from mobile to mobile. Usually the strategy is that you want to use weapon 1 until you find your angle, then go to weapon 2. If your close just shoot weapon two right away. Also if youre close remember to aim for the mobile, NOT the avatar. Load up on items before the game in the readyroom. I usually go with two duals and a teleport. Duals make you shoot twice (press corresponding F1-F5 key to the upper right box before shot to use). Bunging refers to when you make someone fall through the map. Thor is the big thingy that hovers above the map and shoots lasers when he's active. Which brings me to next point. Theres a box of a bunch of little icons that slowly move after each turn. Each icon does something different (spawn a tornado, electricity, thor, each adds more damage, or locks your items so you cant use them) that affects everyone. Thats about all there is to playing.

    Don't forget that Avatar items increase different stats!

    Best way to start off is to do a bunch of Suicide Jewel games until you get promoted, wait a day, and then use your shiny new Space Marine stuff <!--emo&:)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/smile.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile.gif'><!--endemo-->

    I'm like @gent, I was playing only to find the cool looking equipment. I was going with Wing helm, Light Armor, Dragon Flag, Pet Robot.

  • SidSid Corwid of the Free Join Date: 2003-01-28 Member: 12903Members, Constellation
    I didn't realize there was any of those features! I thought there was only slice. XDDD

    Man - and tot hink i was using slice to snipe... Yikes.

    In other words, I have no clue. <!--emo&???--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/confused.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='confused.gif'><!--endemo-->

    Slice is the standard arc. Press spacebar to charge power.

    Sniper is less arc. It fires nearly straight for short distance.

    Dragshot you use your mouse to charge. Press mouse1 (i think) and drag your mouse in the direction your firing to set power. it's very accurate, if you know the power you need.

    I've played enough now to know that I'm pretty bad at it =P man, how long you must have to play to get cool lookin' gear... I'm lucky to come out of a match with 200 gold... =/

    I should read up about the different ridey things, see which one I like best... so far, I hate the boomerang one and the one with the proximity mines... and I was pretty cool with the butt bug, but when I did cool things (like shot homing bombs through land), I didn't exactly know how...

    I'll probably get addicted though. :-D thanks for the link! hehe

    Do suicide Jewels. You usually get about 500-700 for them (i think).

    TEam a drives off the edge. team b gets money. team b drives off edge, team a gets money.

    Cakebot refers to J.D., the cake looking mobile.

    PM me and i'll give you the stuff for my account, so you can gift my Wing Helm and Space Marine stuff to yourself.
