(I have changed the intro format, adding more detail and giving a more in-depth scheme for players who have no idea what the game modifier is.)
(I added a "Notable Clans & Invividuals" section, which references some of the notable pros in WF/WSW that have heavily influenced Instagib gameplay. There will be more clans&stuff added in the future- however so far I listed major ones to start off with!)

Instagib, which is widely considered as one of its own gametypes, changes the whole style and gameplay of WarFork. Primarily dominated by maps such as "bipbeta2 (aka. cwL4)" and "aow-fragland_b7-1", this server modifier does not use Normal Weapons at all. Instead those weapons are replaced by the Instagun which has infinite ammunition. The new weapon is powerful with one shot one kill. This game modifier is strongly based around precise aim and fast movement, knowing many ways to use the Instagun to your advantage. Instagib may be enabled to any match unless disabled by the server host by typing g_instagib 1 into the console, or it is under the "Play" section in the main menu to the right of normal weapons and to the left of race.


Basic Rules

  • While Instagib is enabled using g_instagib 1 into the console, all weapons are replaced by the Instagun which has infinite ammo. To disable Instagib, you may use g_instagib 0 into the console.
  • Each shot received results in instant death, leaving -999 health displayed.
  • Health and Armor aren't important in Instagib due to the one shot one kill mechanics, however instashield can be used as a form of armor/temporary immunity with g_instashield 1 active in the console.
  • All gametype rules are identical to when 'g_instagib' is set to 0 in the console, however there are added features such as Instajump and Instashield.
  • Players always begin each round with 100 HP and 0 AP.

Instashield

Instashield is a special shield that is unique to the Instagib mode either by callvoting or by typing g_instashield 1 into the console.

  • If Instashield is fully charged, a player can crouch to activate it. Instashield makes a player invulnerable for 2 seconds, after which the Instashield has to recharge before a player may reuse the ability.
  • Instashield can only be used if it's fully charged, and takes 5 seconds to recharge.
Using Instajump to gain insane amount of speed on bipbeta2, a community-made map. The mechanic in this video is known as tubejumping, and is an important gateway to achieving fast speeds on many maps.

Instajump

Instajump lets players jump by shooting under themselves. It won't hurt the player because Instagun doesn't deal splash damage when allow_selfdamage is set to 0 by either callvoting or using the allow_selfdamage 0 command into console.
It can be enabled either by voting or by typing g_instajump 1 into the console.

  • Players primarily use Instajump to gain speed quickly, whether it is through using special jump ramps on some community-made maps, tubes (as mentioned in the video caption displayed on the right), or building speed off of a wall by shooting it at the right time.

Tips and Notes

  • In Instagib it is important to stay moving at a comfortable pace at all times, as stationary players (also known commonly as "campers") are fairly easy to kill due to the one shot one kill mechanics.
  • The Instagun's logo in the bottom right (Default HUD) shows the charge level of the Instagun: Instagun 0.png Instagun 1.png Instagun 2.png Instagun.png.
