With all of the OP weapons getting nerfed, the shotgun is going to be more viable in 1.8. Combining that with the cloaks and buff to the scout suits I think we shotgun scouts are going to have fun!
I fear that if hit detection was fixed the shotgun might seem too powerful and people are going to complain that it's OP, which currently it isn't because of it's limited range and hit detection, but when those OP weapons are brought down a notch, the shotgun is going to glow a little more and shine in the eyes of our enemies.
Viability also increase with the increase in TTK, which is going to make scouts even more viable since we'll be able to take that one extra bullet and evade the rest.
I'm not saying we shouldn't fix the shotgun, that hit detection is bad, but when 1.8 comes out, the shotgun is going to look better than now, without having anything about it changed. If we do get a shotgun buff, it should really just focus on hit detection and a little bit of range, because anything more than that will warrant complaints from many players and I wouldn't like to see the shotgun nerfed....

Lol fixing the hit detection would be a buff ...

That's the idea! You could almost do it just as well with the shotgun.

and Hit detection....currently.
