THE CURRENT 2.0 VERSION IS A TEST!
Please keep this in mind when playing! Everything in it will be subject to change, some things might be gone when I actually release the full 2.0 version, and some things might not work as fully intended!
Press RELOAD to use your knife!
Gameplay
Spoiler:
What is this?
A Metal Slug mod.
WEAPON LIST
Spoiler:
- Knife: Your trusty combat knife, will always save you in a pinch and help conserve ammo! Please do not attempt to stab anti-personnel vehicles. Press RELOAD to use it at any time!!
- Pistol: Nothing better than ye' olde pistol. Infinite ammo, fires 1 stronger bullet every 3 bullets, completely accurate, everything a pistol has always had!
- Shotgun: The dear old shotgun the UAC so fondly keeps giving to everyone they're involved with! Even those that will eventuall end up trying to kill them.
- Handcannon: A short barreled hand cannon. Devastating up close, but its range leaves a lot to be desired.
- Machinegun: A reliable upgrade to the dear old handgun, it deals more damage than your normal pistol bullet for the prize of having to actually use ammo.
- Missile Gatling Gun: Fires small, homing missiles in quick succession. Missiles tend to deviate a lot in trajectory when they don't have a target, so make sure to
have your enemy in sigh.- Makeshift Thunder Gun: One impatient person decided to make his own cell powered electric gun. He then sold the makeshift toolkits for these to everyone else. Only one casualty has been recorded from firing these, and it was when the creator tried to upgrade his own gun, causing it to explode.
- Laser Cannon: The biggest baddest gun there is. This bad boy can fire constant ripping railgun lasers like nothing else! And it also eats ammo like nothing else.
- Hand Grenades: These explosive pineapples can be randomly dropped by soldiers on death. Extremelly powerful, and quite devastating when spammed!

the dropped flag is there to determine if it shows the weapon pickup or the
weapon box.
-replaced the punch with the knife. switches faster than all weapons, so
you can quickly switch to it and switch back to another wep if needed!

for balance sake in maps like e2m2 or map03 of going down, where melee

them to free 'em! they are packed with SMGs and will teleport to the

those are bound so they cant use them for much.
