In Combat Arms, renting items will cost you GP (Gear Points), which you can get simply by joining and playing games. The items can be rented for either 1 day, 7 days, 30 days, or 90 days, with the rental price increasing the longer you rent for. However, the unit per-day price will be significantly lower if you buy things for a longer time. For example, renting an AK47 for just one day will cost you 800 GP, but renting it for seven days will only cost around 3500 GP, which is much less than if you had 1-day rented the AK47 every day for seven days. You can customize your character is by renting weapons and/or bodywear. | In Combat Arms, renting items will cost you GP (Gear Points), which you can get simply by joining and playing games.

==Weapons== | |||
Everybody has four weapon slots, accessed in-game by pressing 1, 2, 3, and 4. Each of these weapon slots can only carry a certain type of weapon. | |||
[[Image:CA_shop-s.jpg]] | |||
===Primary Weapon=== | |||
Your primary weapon is a powerful gun that you will very likely be using the most out of your four weapon slots. Types of primary weapons include [[Combat Arms/Assault Rifles|assault rifles]], [[Combat Arms/Submachine guns|submachine guns]], [[Combat Arms/Machine guns|machine guns]], shotguns and [[Combat Arms/Sniper rifles|sniper rifles]]. Assault Rifles are guns with a good balance of [[Combat Arms/Weapons|attributes]]. Submachine Guns sacrifice damage for rate of fire, machine guns sacrifice accuracy and portability for damage and huge ammo clips. Sniper rifles are powerful guns that are deadly from a range but very clumsy and useless at close range. Shotguns are best at close range, and have great damage, but have great recoil and force you to reload after every shot. | |||
The default primary weapon for everybody is the M16 Assault Rifle. It costs 0 GP to maintain and stays permanently in your storage. However, it is not a great | |||
gun compared to the other Primary Weapons that you can rent for GP. | |||
Currently, the MP5A4, SR-25, AK-47, and the M4A1 can be bought with NX to permenently replace the M16A3 at 30000-33000 NX. | |||
===Secondary Weapon=== | |||
{{details|Combat Arms/Secondary}} | |||
The secondary weapon is a weaker gun that you can use in the case that you run out of ammo for your primary weapon, or find yourself in a tight spot. Types of secondary weapons include Pistols and Shotguns. Pistols are small guns that are only slightly weaker than assault rifles but are not capable of automatic fire. The one exception to the weakness is the Anaconda Black Revolver, which is in every aspect except for name and looks is a non-spread shotgun. | |||
The default Secondary Weapon is the M92FS Pistol. Like the M16 Rifle, it costs nothing to maintain, but isn't very great either. | |||
===Melee Weapon=== | |||
{{details|Combat Arms/Melee and Support}} | |||
The melee weapon is something that you can use to kill enemies at a range such that you are pretty much right next to them. All melee weapons have two attacks, done with the left and right mouse buttons. Melee weapons have infinite "ammo". Since you have to get close to an enemy to use the melee weapon, it is not used much. People will often use the knife to kill and humiliate people who are not watching their back (often snipers looking through their scope). | |||
The default Melee Weapon is the M9 Knife. It isn't great, but since melee weapons are used very rarely anyways, most people do not bother to rent a better melee weapon with GP. | |||
===Support Weapon=== | |||
{{details|Combat Arms/Melee and Support}} | |||
The support weapon is anything else that might help you in combat. Support weapons include a variety of explosives, including grenades and mines. Other things like Heartbeat Sensors are also available for the Support Weapon slot. | |||
The default Support Weapon is the M67 Fragmentation Grenade. It is actually decently useful for killing enemies, and people that rent other support weapons usually place it in their Backpack (explained below) rather than replacing their M67 grenade with it. | |||

===Backpack=== | ===Backpack=== | ||
The backpack is a very important piece of bodywear. It will give you extra weapon slots which can accommodate any of the four types of weapons. For example, if your primary weapon is an AK47 but you also feel that you want a sniper rifle, you can buy an L96A1 and backpack it. People that want extra support weapons, maybe such as a flash grenade, will often backpack it instead of replacing their default grenade with it. | |||
Everybody has a default backpack that gives you one extra weapon slot. Renting the Advanced Backpack will give you two extra weapon slots, but it comes with a slight movement penalty. | |||
