Weapons and Armor
Another overview of weapons by Kyo003
Weapons, Stats, & You by inevibility
Rifles:
All purpose and usually the mission weapon, some come with grenade launchers. Rifles are good for ambushing people when they’re trying to capture a spot or run away since rifles have the second highest mobility in game. Rifles are also used in Co-op since they are good for killing weak zombies. At later rounds though, rifles are often switched out for the more powerful rocket launcher of sniper rifle.
[Insert pending link to a thread containing all known rifles that is to be made]
Sniper Rifles:
Long ranged weapons that can take down any character as long as you get a headshot. Sniper Rifles are good for people that excel in long ranged attacking. They have the second slowest reload time so if you miss a shot, you’re left wide open. Sniper Rifles are also mainly used in Co-op since they mostly does one hit kills on most maps when you land a headshot.
[Insert pending link to a thread containing all known sniper rifles that is to be made]
Rocket Launchers:
All-range weapons that can take down most artillery and any character when you hit. Rocket Launchers are good for people that hide behind obstacles or ambushing people as they’re trying to capture a respawn checkpoint. They have the slowest reload time so if you miss a shot, you’re left wide open. Rocket Launchers are also mainly used in Co-op since it mostly does one hit kills on most maps.
[Insert pending link to a thread containing all known rocket launchers that is to be made]
Shotguns:
Close ranged weapons that can take down most characters with one shot. Shotguns are good for most situations except for Co-op mode because it doesn’t kill as many zombies as a sniper rifle or rocket launcher. They have the middle range in reload time.
[Insert pending link to a thread containing all known shotguns that is to be made]
Handguns:
Most unused weapon due to low damage and range. Handguns are used to switch out weapons quickly as they can be switched to even while reloading a weapon with a long reload time such as the rocker launcher.
[Insert pending link to a thread containing all known handguns that is to be made]
Grenades:
Grenades are used for flushing out people or getting long ranged explosions without the long reload time. There are two types, Hand Grenades and Grenade Rounds. Hand Grenades are thrown when right clicking when wielding a rifle, shotgun, rocket launcher, or handgun. Grenade Rounds are shot from certain rifles that can be found or bought from the shop.
Subsection: Artillery
Guardian-175 aka Mortar:
Long ranged weapon that can OHKO almost anything. Long reload time and is eliminated with one rocket or grenade. Angle adjustable by right clicking when inside. The camera locks onto the shell until impact, so you wont know what’s happening around you even though you can still move around and shoot things once you’re out of the mortar.
HMK-29 aka Tank:
Exactly what the name is. Has three weapons which are bullets, missiles, and a heat seeking missile. The missiles are angle adjustable by right clicking when inside, but the heat seeker can only use high angles. Bullets cause you to remain stationary. Can crush enemies and is destroyed by about 4 rockets or grenades.
Tomahawk-743 aka Helicopter:
Has two weapons, missiles and bullets. To shoot from this the nose of the aircraft needs to be pointing down. Missiles cause the helicopter to remain stationary and are angle adjustable (I think o-o). Destroyed by one rocket. Pressing 0 will cause it to shift into hover mode where the weapon angles are adjustable, but has slower movement.
D-TX23 aka Mecha:
Can jump and jump high. Press W+Space to use the super jump. Shoots bullets and angle is changed by mouse position, although shooting angles is limited to slightly above and below the horizontal.
Armor
Armor is used for protection against most things in game and some sets even give bonuses.
Set Bonuses

Helmet: Defense, Anti-Explosive
Goggles: SP
Gloves: MP
Combat Outfit: Defense
Battle Shoes: Speed
Flak Jackets: Defense, Speed

Modes
There are three modes: PvP, Co-op, and Mission.
PvP mode is when you battle against other players. There are subcategories such as company battle, death match, team battle, and item battle. You can gain experience points, coins, and license points in this mode. There are two sections, beginner and normal. You lose access to the beginner section once you become a Sgt.
Co-op mode is when you team up with other players to defeat waves of enemies. There are different maps with different time limits and difficulties. You can gain experience points, coins, and license points in this mode. There is also a raffle at the end for 1-3 zombie boxes, depending on the amount of players, which will net you a random item if you complete the Co-op.
For general Co-op strategies, look here.
For information on the upgrades in Co-ops, look here.
Mission mode is the storyline. It usually has quests that correspond with the missions you do in order. You can play with other players and see how you match up with other high scores. If you get any supply cards, you’re sent to a page containing 56 boxes with random items. If you do not pick any boxes, the game automatically does it for you. You can gain experience points, quest items, upgrades, and equipment in this mode.

General Tips
Fatigue System
The fatigue system limits how many missions and co-ops you can do per day. It resets daily at 3:00 am PDT and is initially at 100/100.
Missions take off 1 fatigue per difficulty level, so rookie takes off 1, vet takes off 2, and so on.
General
Weapon license is like your level for your weapons. The higher your license the more weapons you can choose from. To access this press L. You can gain license from doing PvP.
Your rank is your characters level in this game. It is raised through experience points which can be gained through any of the modes available (missions,co-op,PvP). Your rank also determines the type of armor/clothing you can wear. The higher your rank, the more selection of armor you have to choose from.
Press [Backspace] to vote kick someone when in a PvP/Co-op
To cycle through the various chats press tab.
Right click to use the second function of a weapon. (Like sniper rifle)
Too find out specifically what map/mission your quest requires click on the more info button when viewing a quest, it will tell you the location and/or the mission title.
Hit return to type a chat message. Choose the channel from the drop-down next to the message box. The chat log will fade away on its own. Not very player friendly.
There is very little help for all of the UI dialogs or on how to do many of the things a town quest requires.
Many town quests require you to go to a mission place that is not in the list of available targets. They are actually a sub-area within one target. Ask on chat if you can not find one.
You can split item stacks by Ctrl+Left Click.
Missions
Blue supply cards can be picked up from defeated enemies or boxes. If you complete the mission you then are able to choose random supply boxes that give you random items.
Doing a mission over that doesn’t say “New” will net you zero coins, although you will still get EXP.
The ribbons that are dropped whenever you kill an enemy NPC increases the overall EXP you gain at the end of the mission.
Some doors/Barricades require you to destroy a box or run over a floor button. They look just like the floor alarms.
Press W to enter entrances facing you.
Honor points can be used to buy special items from the Honor Store. You gain honor after so many minutes of playing, getting critical shots and selling items.
To shoot from a ladder you must be trained in that skill.
Many jump obstacles (like barricades) can be destroyed with firepower.
Co-Op
The more damage/zombies you kill the more points you gain at the end of the round.
If you successfully complete a co-op there is a lottery type reward at the end, the three people who get the highest numbers will be rewarded a prize.
The more players in a Co-op room, the more exp you get.
PvP
When a player respawns he/she is invincible for a little while.
More players capturing a point, means less time capturing that point.
There are “missions” in PvP mode, the objective is listed at the top of the screen, if you complete the mission you will gain a 10% bonus for experience points.
After reaching over 1000 kills or Staff Sergeant, you are forced to play free PvP only.
If you are at the top of the charts and have a good Kill to Death ratio you may gain the Ace bonus which gives a bigger bonus than completing the mission.
When your fill your characters picture completely green/blue/red, you’ll get the option to bomb, or use a special skill.

-Unshamefully stolen from [GM]Cara’s Ticket Explanation thread-
——————————————-STATUS EXPLANATIONS——————————————-
STATUS: UNOPENED
A ticket status marked UNOPENED means that the ticket is waiting in line with other tickets. It has not yet been seen by a Game Master and nothing has yet been done to it. As soon as anything has been done to the ticket from either party (player or GM), the status will change to OPENED.
STATUS: OPENED
A ticket status marked OPENED means that some action has taken place with the actual ticket. This does not means that something has been done about your ISSUE. Essentially an OPENED status means that your ticket is in a specific Game Master’s “in-box” and will be handled by the Game Master.
STATUS: HOLD-AEIRA
A ticket status marked HOLD-AERIA means that a Game Master has reviewed your issue and determined that more research is needed and they cannot immediately resolve your issue.
STATUS: HOLD-CUSTOMER
A ticket status marked HOLD-CUSTOMER refers to the TICKET itself, not the issue within the ticket. Hold-Customer means that the GM team has responded from our end and “the ball” is now in your court. If the problem you had has been fully completed then no further action on your part is required. If you still need help or the Game Master requested more information then the ticket will stay Hold-Customer until you reply. Once you reply, the ticket status will change back to OPENED and be placed back into the GM’s “in-box”. Hold-Customer status DOES NOT mean that issue has been fixed, it is simply the term used in our internal tracking system.
STATUS: SPAM
Very very very few tickets receive a Spam status. Spam usually means that the GM team has taken every possible action to help the player but the player refuses to cooperate or our system has marked it has spam
