While I am happy for you shotgunners (sort of cause I still hate you guys and gals

) the shotty is becoming pretty standard. I seem to die to more of those than anything else these days, but at least I'll still sometimes get the best of you all with my submachine gunning minmatar assault fit.

That's because the only shotgun scouts still around are the crusty, mean bastards that stuck it out through hitbox expansion, useless ewar, tissue-sized hp, shotgun bugs, etc, etc, etc and STILL found a way to be successful!

And now we're a crazy combination of pissed off, patient and calculating having spent these months of uprising honing our skills while we lose one brother after another to the AR-toting, mouth-breathing, entitlement-minded masses until THIS glorious day:

Tacnet invisibility...check.
Shotgun functionality...check.

Prepare for our arrival.

The rampant AR users / FOTM crowd don't usually move to different playstyles. So while I think we'll see an increase in shotgun usage, I don't think it will be anything like what happened with flaylock and mass drivers. So yah, I agree with ^ (pseudosnipre)

CommanderBolt A.N.O.N.Y.M.O.U.S. 258	Posted - 2013.09.05 20:53:00 - [35] - Quote Further feedback. The shotgun isnt working at 100% but its a hell of a lot better than I can recently remember. So again thanks for the quick fix there CCP. I think the main niggle I have with the SG now is that in higer lag / higer ping battles it does have some delay when firing. I would say 7 - 8 / 10 matches it works really nice though, that's a huge improvement.

And you know the Shotgun was on at least one of CCP's lists of weapons that don't get AA, right? LOL.

Those are not the bitter, crusty, mean bastard scouts that he is referring to. THOSE people, those SCOUTS, have suffered through craptacular shotgun performance for what seems like ages.... they have adapted to use lower damage weapons that leave them exposed in their flimsy armor for a lot longer to far deadlier targets. Their kill counts and ISK spent have suffered. Now those scouts have become even easier to kill with aim assist and hit detection improvements in 1.4. The players he is referring to are the fast, stealthy, aware, fragile and extremely pissed off players in actual scout suits that love turning mercs into a fine red mist with extreme prejudice. There is a special place in hell reserved for medium suit shotgun weenies, and those that control that place are shotgun scouts.
