Good effort, but no dice. Too many things can instagib a Scout.
Regen > brick tank. After 3 engage/disengage cycles my scout has tanked more damage than most heavies can take, and that's without counting all the DPS avoided by fast strafing + small hitbox.

That is all. Mate the shotgun in this game is a total joke. Have you ever used a shotgun in like any other FPS game ever? The lack of range with shotguns in this game is lol worthy. If you let a shotgunner get within 4 or 5 meters of you, you deserve to be shot down. Did you read the words I wrote? 1. IDGAF about other FPSes. Their shotguns don't shoot plasma. 2. Yes, the range is "lol worthy"- that's what balances the high alpha. The cloak has thrown this balance off by allowing scouts too much freedom to dictate range.
"Not giving a f**k" about other FPS`s is one of the major reasons this game keeps slipping up. Im not saying we blindly copy other games but other games are successful for a reason. Not only that they make for good gameplay.
As for the 14 meters, at that range the shotgun is doing how much % of its damage? It certainly will be hitting weak at that range.
I do agree that the cloak may well be giving easy opportunities for shotgunners to get in range, however some would argue that that is the whole point of the cloak and I would argue its because CCP never seems to get the balance right, (Or even close for that matter) |

Lmao what scouts are you registering over there all I see is HP stacked scouts, just like the HP stacked logis before. For the record screw high ttk arcade shooter crap.
No idea what you're talking about, but quite certain we have not met, Emperor1349.
Are you a Tourist? Or Convert? Spectator?
How have you enjoyed you stay?
I do hope to meet you in person. Soon. |

The exact same point could be used against all this cloak butthurt. LOL

I still can't find tanks on the market. All I see are those HAVs.

I never liked the idea of the shotgun being a main weapon. I'd rather it be a side arm, alt arm (in case of close encounters) and therefore, be reduced in damage as it would be really OP as a sidearm with the cloak.

That's the great thing about that point.
Anyway, I never suggested that anyone not use anything- there's no such thing as internet video game honor. I just said some things are easier than others.

The no, Shotgun isn't "ez mode".
Aim Assist is.

I know one thing for sure, as of right now even if you get the jump on a heavy its almost always still a 50/50 trying to kill him with a sg. Might get em might not, depends on the skill of the heavy tbqh, when I die as much as I kill while undetected and all but touching him with my shotty somethings up.
Op? Yea right, go ahead nerf it ccp, and just go ahead and say you dont want us killing your heavy's period. Thats about what will happen if the sg gets a nerf, we will have to deal with unkillable heavys. Just last night I shot a heavy 4 times and he killed me as my 5th shot was being emptied into him, thats a bit ridiculous if you ask me.
When your playing dust and your frustrated...if all else fails...turn off the ps3. Works every time.
