Gunbound - Boom-tastic!

Who remembers the game Gunbound? Man I haven't played/heard of anyone playing that game in like 6+ years.
I remember playing that game when there was only two servers, Avatar On and Avatar Off, and the highest rank was wand. I should try playing that game again, boomer was super awesome fun styles. However, Gunbound is a prime example of how Cash Shops ruin games (as stated in one of my previous blog entries). Especially on Avatar-On servers, if you don't have a specific setup, you most likely will lose very quickly. It's also annoying because playing on an Avatar-On server (which I don't by the way), everyone's gear looks the same. Perhaps its changed after this long. I also remember another reason I quit was because there was an upsurge in cheaters. I wonder how that's going.

While writing this, I was talking to my friend who I used to play Gunbound with, and he reminded me of these two items that were available through purchase only. They were like called "bots" or something, and there were two types, but they both gave really imba stats so it made it quite unfair for non-cash players. NOT ONLY THAT, but my friend told me they still worked on the avatar off server. Good Fucking Game.

Some people have way too much money... :(

After talking to my friend, maybe I shouldn't play that game again. GG definitely no re.

  1. I started playing again a few months ago, but the difference between the cash players and non-cash players is very unfair, so I stopped playing. But I still Play Wolf-Team with softnyx, which is a very cool FPS. I you start playing let me know so I can add you to my buddylist. =D

  4. Yeah cash shops kill games if they have imba items. Most cash shops only have stuff like exp and gold boosters, cosmetics and whatnot, not equips you can use.
    And i do remember this game. I quit when people started hacking on it. Pretty much every MMO i've ever liked has been ruined thanks to cheaters..

  9. The free games always have a catch - pay money and you get to be gods.
