    I can normally strafe away from any combo. I can move quickly then slowly to put them off track, I can strafe and jump when they combo; there's more than many ways to avoid them. Also, comboing puts aim at a serious drawback. It also takes more skill to combo than to just shoot a gun once and wait for the next shot to come. Combos actually add MORE skill to the game, because you need to know what ones are better. What ones should you use and when, and what ones are you good at? That's all strategy and skill, knowing that. What ones can go faster, what ones do you need to click as fast as you can when you switch? Again, strategy and skill. Combos make the game more skill-based, but people who don't combo are at a serious disadvantage because it's harder for them to get kills with only one gun at a time. So people need to learn about combos and get skill with them to become great players. WarZ is better with the combo, for all the reasons I stated above. Combos add more skill, rather than take it away, and sometimes it's not even hard at all to avoid them.

    Combos. A cheap tactic someone started using where you shoot all of your weapons in a short amount of time. This tactic requires LESS than using a singular gun because there is no need to aim. Combos let you shoot server bullets, several types of bullets, all in a few seconds. Players who do not combo require more skill because they need to aim their weapons, know when to reload, and know when to shoot. A player that does not use combos doesn't have to abuse glitches to make their gun shoot faster, unlike players that use combos that use weapons to make combos go faster. Combos take the fun out of WarZ. No player likes to gather loot for a long time then meet a player who will instantly kill them when they walk through the door. Combos lead to macros. Without combos there would be no macros at all. Players can use combos as an excuse for using macros. WarZ is better without the combo, for all the reasons I stated above. Not using combos adds more skill, rather than take it away, and players that don't use combos have much more skill.

    Now that I have said my opinion on combos, let's move on to your opinion. That's cool that you can strafe away from a noob that does a spas-barret combo. However, when you actually fight a good player than uses more guns in their combo, they don't need to aim. They just keep firing their weapons and one will hit you. As you even said, combos make it harder to aim, meaning that players literally just shoot all of their weapons at you without aiming until you die. You mention that combos add skill to that game, but you simply stated all the facts that apply to users that don't use combos. You need to know when to use a sniper in a situation and when to use an automatic or shotgun. You need to know what type of weapons and what guns you are good with using. Just because you add on combo to it doesn't mean it requires more skill. Combos make the gun more luck-based, not skill-based. You simply fire all of your weapons then hope that one of your ten shots will land on the target. To be a great player, you don't need to know how to combo. If you wish to be a cheap player, combo all you want.

    A: Not gonna reply to any word to this post.
    B: You're spamming me with disagrees.
    C: If you can stay far away enough from comboers, then they can't hit you.
    D.: People who combo actually have much MORE skull than people who do not. If your gonna call me a "cheap player" I would like to remind you that almost every well-known WarZ player uses combos to take out most enemies. I could list at least 10 layers everyone knows that use combos.
    E: How in the world are combos LUCK? It's about how fast you can click your mouse and how you organize your inventory, and how you use combos and when and lots of other things.
    F: You're starting a flame war. I will not continue it.
    Good day to you sir.

    This is the difference I love in mature players and immature players. You realized this was starting a flame war, or at least blamed me for it, yet still continued to get the last word. The mature player would have just said this is turning into a flame war and ended it. Instead you continue. As to xgen's comment, that was extremely inappropriate. I've noticed that you two are the only ones that are supporters of combos yet you tell me I am making up stuff and pulling it out of my ass? How about you stop being so self-opinionated and realize my standpoint.

    A macro is a specialized (gaming) mouse that lets you click extremely fast. When combined with the guns on War and WarZ, it's deadly. Basically, you could fire off a SPAS and Barrett shot with almost no delay. It was banned from Brawl for being too OP.

    How does one simply remove combos, unless there is only one weapon left which could be anything.

    Why are you trying to remove them @bob8is8cool? Is it because you can't combo? I don't see any other reason why you'd want to.

    I know what xgen42 means, like time after switching weapons which is more realistic. There should be an animation for switching guns.
