It’s my favorite game… And I’m not the only one:

IBDW, S2J, TheRealThing, TSM_Daequan, TSM Dyrus, myself, and many more people play GunZ. I saw Bab Activated log on, and I heard Mang0 thinks GunZ is cool. We have a clan called SSBM (ran by iBDW). The game is free, come play with the boys :)

Some pointers on common problems you may be having:

Any move: I can’t switch my weapons fast enough
DONT USE Q/E. Ok well you can, but just know that they have a long cooldown… something like 800ms, so you can only use them every now and then.

Butterfly / slash shot: block / gun isn’t coming out
You may be slashing before the dash instead of after. If the dash is silent, then that is the issue.

Wall climb: my character is flipping
All you have to do to stop the flip is slash. If you’re doing the move right though, you’ll never see the flip. Don’t mash these inputs, get yourself airborne by jumping, then do the inputs quickly: dash slash jump… wait… dash slash jump… wait… etc

Gear tap: my character is rolling
You either didn’t slash on the way up, or you’re inputting the dash too late.

Reload shot: my shots are slower
You’re either not getting the reload cancel correct, or you’re just not doing the inputs fast enough. Try just shoot - sword. Then, try shoot - reload - sword. The second one should be faster as there’s no delay switching to your sword. When doing reload shot, shoot+reload+switch are pressed nearly at the same time, 1 frame apart

Static double butterfly: slash not coming out
You are either mashing the inputs, or you are pressing block before slash. There’s a lot of leniency on the timing for DBF, so take it slow and add some more gaps between the moves. DBF does not need to be anywhere near frame perfect.

Reload half step: I can’t do it or I can only do it in certain directions
Are you on default controls? I demonstrate this with default controls because that’s how I learned it, but it’s significantly harder on default controls than if you bind things to your mouse. Many people put reload, sword, and even guns on their mouse so that their left hand isn’t so overworked. I would recommend rebinding controls to make this easier, especially given you’ll have to eventually anyways to learn late dash.

Forbidden step: I can’t get the slash after the dash
You’re doing everything too slow. There can be a few different causes of this, such as missing the reload cancel, but take a look at the above comment on RHS, because maybe it’s your controls that are holding you back.
