I got the great idea to start playing GunBound again, so I did.
Acidus hopped on and we convinced Rabbit to come along too.
Maybe if you could all come along, it'd be pretty fun.
Aaah. Before I forget. I am poLyCHromeXx in-game.

I refuse to play any game where Brazilian aimbots outnumber actual players.

Pshaw, who said anything about pubs?
Anyway I seem to be in the part of the place where Asians dominate~

What game is this again.

Think Worms but online and somewhat less hilarious.

I was thinking about playing Gunbound again a few days ago.
I'm not feeling terribly motivated though since I know my skill with Boomer, Kalsiddon and Trico are going to be nonexistent now, and I've heard the game isn't as good as it used to be.
Hearing about aimbots doesn't help anything either.

i raged so hard while playing jewel mode with trance. i screamed in rage on skype, and now i've got a headache.
thanks a lot you butt >:<
@_@;; Hey, you beat me thrice in a row after that!
-
i am here to address that boomer is terrible and you shouldn't use it.
Also, Knight is cheap AND YET I STILL LOST HOW
-
sbr616 in case someone can send me a buddy request.. (I don't know for how long I'll be able to be in the novice server -- and the "all levels" server doesn't accept me, so far)
though I don't play the game much, so I'm not online most of the time. Pm me in #shrinemaiden ( irc.ppirc.net ), if you want to play with me, but be warned that playing 1vs1 isn't as fun, as 4vs4, for example, because I'm not good at this game :p
edit: I hate heavy projectiles ><
still the same edit: I also hate to use shot-types that rely on high angles :(

I am here to tell you that you obviously don't use Boomer much.
-
wow. I haven't played this in like forever.

Knight is like A.Sate+++++ though you can still lose if you let yourself get bunged... That's the thing about this game, Bigfoot pretty much owns your face in bunge maps like Adium Root because you will fall to your death from his Shot 1/SS. Especially if Dual is set (NOT Dual+, where Bigfoot's S2 is for clearing land to screw up angles, due to its shotgun nature).
Re: Boomer sucking
I am here to tell you that you obviously don't use Boomer much.
No, seriously? Dual Boomer Shot 2 is really freaking painful, not to mention if you can get it right, you can get a perfect Bunge hole or help a Grub plant Shot 2 bombs or an SS, and... it just sets up for fellow Mobiles really easily. Also, Boomer SS. Hurts. A. Lot.
still the same edit: I also hate to use shot-types that rely on high angles :(
So, uh, just Kalsiddon. Okay.
Right, right, kidding. Turtle and Whale need decently high angles to reach their maximum potential, too. Since they have moderately high delay, and they have the range to do it, especially Whale.

And to top it off, the myriad of angles you can toss the shots at mean as long as you don't get something stupid like 25 in the opposite direction against a faraway opponent, you can hit opponents from just about anywhere and look flashy doing it.
especially Whale.
wait what

wait what
Shot 1 doesn't need it but it's horribly useless and only good for preparing your Shot 2, that actually does need high angle for close targets. :3

By "wait what" I meant "that never existed when I played gunbound what the hell is going on".

i main dragon

How do you main something that comes up at random?
Assuming I start playing again, I'm InfelPhira and you'll usually find me using J. Frog. Kinda miss the time when it made hueg holes though.

New mobile. GunBound S2, remember? ^^;; I wasn't familiar with it either but I caught on quickly.

But you can main Random. Like me.

Never heard of it, must've been after my time.

Yeah. I hear they're working on Gunbound S3.
Also: Wolf is the new Bigfoot. Except with less bunge and more OMG THE PAIN

I quit a few months after Gunbound Revolution.
...how many new ones did they add?

Revo and S2/World Champion are different~
They have some new ones but are cash-only, not that all of them are THAT good, and you can get them thruogh Random:
Tiburon (looks like a shark, good for maps with ceiling)
Frank (Frankenstein, spits poison, has a lightning bomb for Shot2)
Maya (Native American, throws axes)
Phoenix (Red bird, main icon of GBWC, similar to Aduka but shoots forward)
Here's the new ones you can choose:
Whale (S2 is a whirlwind, multi-hit, very powerful when hitting weakness)
Wolf (Shot 1 causes ATK-02 per shot, Shot 2 is multi-hit, similar to Whale's Shot 2)
-
I'd play except there is no fucking 64-bit client. >_>

Suddenly, a roadblock.
This applies to me as well.

Well there may be since some people on the forums said they got it to work with W7.
-
Contrary to what Hime and Acidus say, my aim is entirely good.
Really!
-
when do you guys play? :V
-
I'm only online in GB (S2) when I'm called to play, or mostly always offline there, so, if you can access #shrinemaiden at irc.ppirc.net , pm me (I access that room regularly)

Perhaps I should've tried to play it at least once before break ended... oh well, I guess I'll hop on S3 if it's out over the summer.

Recent "what" moment:
1v1, J. Frog (me) vs. Nak on NirvanaB (lots of platforms in midair). I end up on the top level, the Nak two floors down. He misses, and I get a double turn in which I nick him both times after dropping down to a lower level. He gets a Dual shot 2 off, hitting me painfully. My previous shots got him close to a thin edge, so I pull off a SS that gets him to red. He drops me down to his level with another shot 2, so we're both at critical and on the same platform. I flub the next shot, and he pulls off a Dual shot 2. He dies first.

It is a well known fact that Nak Shot 2s are very painful when you hit yourself with it.

I tried to figure out drag. While I kinda understand how it works (I can see the advantages it has over slice), I'm not that proficient at the game to care about it too much. I played this a few years ago and got pretty good with Kalsiddon. Unfortunately I forgot the password to my old account so I had to make a new one.
I had a rather interesting "first day".
I go random mobile every game, because I really don't care what I get as long as it isn't Boomer. I get Bigfoot first game and lose because of a leaver. I get A.Sate and lose the second game without incident. Then I get Grub in the third game.
At all times, there's been this one guy on my team who seems easily amused, throws out "ns" comments every time someone shoots, regardless of result, and has been calling me a noob since the first game. Everyone starts thinking he's a pretty cool guy, and maybe he is. Then I proceed to TK him because I suck at drag. :V He starts bursting forth a torrent of "noob", "[myname], you suk", "LOL", "nsns". At this point I give up drag and start using slice. Needless to say I lost that game.
So he switches to the other team and explicitly states he's gonna get me. I get Aduka, they pile on and I die almost immediately. They begin steamrolling and go all 'kill the pig' on us. Our last dude got so fed up he "BANZAI!!!"ed outta there, which was infinitely better than dying to that guy. "ns, noob". I get Turtle, we get another leaver and lose again. So I'm still getting my bearings for this old game. He goes on about how everyone should go random and talks about Dragon, Knight, what have you, and that if he gets it he'll kill me with it.
Sixth game begins. I get Knight.
"omg" "omgomgomgomg" "OMG" "NOOB GOT KNIGHT"
"Damn. I must really hate you."
At this point, my old instincts kick in and I proceed to ruin his shit with "lucky shots". A direct shot 1, an indirect shot 2, a completely missed SS shot, then a direct double shot 2 and that was the end of him. Then the next game starts, I get Boomer and, through no fault of my own, suddenly lag everyone out of the game. Oops.
What a wonderful community. I think I'll stick with this game. Wish I remembered "BANZAI!!!"'s name, though.
