This timeline comes from the older Scuba Guides and represents community memory rather than a fully verified archive. Treat it as context for the techniques, names, and eras—not as a definitive record.
Scuba Guides disclaimer. Historical claims, player names, server references, and dates are preserved from the older source material. This page is not an official GunZ history and should not be used as proof of current facts.
