As a shotgunner I must say this game is not very enjoyable anymore. Heck, I can see why people AFK now, this game has gotten so boring now that I can't blame them for doing the minimum it takes to earn SP.
Until CCP fixes the aiming and hit detection in this game, I don't know how any infantry are having fun. Not being able to properly aim takes any fun out of any fight. This is the reason splash weapons have been getting ever so popular, because most of their shots will actually hit their targets, unlike aiming with any other non splash weapon, in which it's considered luck to hit something.
I miss using shotguns, and I can't wait until CCP fixes aiming five years from now. Yes I've heard aiming is supposed to be fixed in the upcoming patches soon, but knowing CCP what will go wrong in its place? Almost every patch that is introduced something else has gone wrong. Take the recent patch for example, Active Scanners now jam! That's right, they get stuck and only reset after you switch equipment.
Here's to the future *raises glass* (<-----I'm a Minmatar Logi) |

Here's to the future *raises glass* (<-----I'm a Minmatar Logi) considering how often i get ganked by a shotgun i have to wonder about this post. i also notice you've not mentioned how the 'hit detection' is off for you. this doesn't seem like much of a post to me. how about throw some information into your posts? my active scanner doesn't jam, so...
Are you kidding me? Active Scanners DO jam now, wait for more people to post in this thread, they'll confirm they jam. When that happens the only way to use it again is to switch to something else and reequip the Scanner again.
The two biggest problems for shotguns is;
1. The Acceleration- When you want your reticule to go from point A to point B, it doesn't happen right away like in other FPS. The Acceleration makes it take longer for you to properly aim, and for a shotgunner this gets you killed, we can't twitch aim with this garbage on.
2. Slow sensitivity- The aiming is too slow in this game, even at max sensitivity, it simply isn't enough. You will come across many enemies who will strafe faster than you can aim!
I've used shotguns for a very long time in FPShooters, so I do know what I'm talking about. Trust me when I say it's HARD to use shotguns in DUST right now, they're a joke. Almost no one takes them them seriously right now with all the problems they have. The 8 clip Mass Driver does a better job in close quarters than the shotgun right now, that should tell you something is seriously wrong. |

Gentlemen, please, let's keep it civil. There are many problems with the core mechanics in this game, so if someone AFK's, I can't blame them.
Personally I don't AFK, I'm a Medic, and I can't stand seeing my teammates die. Whether I have to pull out a Breach Forge to kill enemy Armour, or if I'm Reviving and Healing with my Logistics, it's all been for my team. I love this game, it has so much potential to be a great FPS, but there are some major issues that have been ignored by CCP for some time. My hope is that they fix these very soon.
FF14 and the PS4 are coming out soon, and I don't want this game to die because of something minor that can easily be fixed.
Come on CCP, we believe in you, please fix this game. |

Here's to the future *raises glass* (<-----I'm a Minmatar Logi) What is broke in aiming in detail, according to your opinion?
Not just my opinion, there are blatant issues that stand out in the current build of DUST.
1. The "acceleration" makes it harder to aim quickly and precise, instead of your reticule going from point A to point B instantly, the acceleration makes aiming take to long. You can't lead shots against moving targets because of this.
2. The Sensitivity is TOO slow, it simply isn't fast enough. 100% is still to slow, they need make the max Sensitivity atleast three times what it currently is at the moment.
3. Aim Assist does nothing for me, I've tried it on and off, but neither has helped me, the aiming is just **** poor this build.
I wish I could put the problems into better words, but I'm a terrible writer. |

But, on a more serious note, get better aiming and stop complaining.
No, the aiming system is poor this current build. "Get gud" isn't the answer to everything. If you can't tell something is wrong with the aiming then you're blind. The proof is in front of you. |

Thank you for the reply, I read what was written about acceleration and it doesn't look good. Looks like I'll have to switch to mouse and keyboard, I've never used this before, but I don't think DS3 will ever be good enough for close quarters in DUST.
Can't comment much until 1.4 releases, but if nothing is done about the acceleration, then I don't know things will get better for shotguns. |

If you can't tell something is wrong with the aiming then you're blind. The proof is in front of you. If you can OR can't tell something is wrong with YOUR aiming then YOU SIR are blind. I have no problem with aiming.
Then you're blind as well. Please use a shotgun in PC, or ambush and try to get a lot of kills, you will most likely die trying. I can guarantee you won't perform well consistently. If aiming was good, then why is CCP patching it? You are a fool. |
