First match of the day I go 35-0 while feeling like a total wreck and in a logi suit. Almost all of my kills were OHK with no damage mods, I say nerf it to 30 damage or increase spread just like in the old days.

Oh yeah, let's go ahead and nerf the <20 meter range so that when we get on those 1km long maps those shotguns will be more balanced.

FFS, it's a SHOTGUN - it's a High Damage, Low Range weapon. Just because this is the first time you've ever seem them truly utilized in an FPS (Call of Duty discouraging their use as SMGs could go into ADS faster) doesn't mean they're over-powered.

You ever fired a REAL shotgun? They have a LOT more range than these things.

AR's SMG's Pistols Forge Guns

Are all balanced or even underpowered compared to the rest of the weapons in the game, low level smgs are terrible, same goes for single shot AR's

Not to offend any shotgun users or anything, but shotgun kills aren't hard to get. Its all about getting in that good distance to hit the target really hard. I know some players who stay behind walls, waiting for people to pass and BAM! Shotgunn'd the **** down. Thats not hard at all compared to me keeping a dead aim on a long distance target who is geared the **** up AND taking his ass down.

I'm fine with the shotgun. Sure, it pisses me off when I get one shotted, but I can already tell how a shotgun looks and when I see or hear that ****, I'm distancing myself from that area and taking over.

Oh, and I'm running assault type ll still working on my shields so i hope I can take a shotgun blow better than now. It's all good, though.

Funny you bring real life into it...

Ever fire a minigun in real life? It has zero spool time, deadly accurate, no spread.

You people are a bunch of hypocrites. Like seriously. "OH NO! DON'T NERF THE SHOTGUN!" then on the other hand "NERF THE HMG!!!"

You realize both guns serve the SAME PURPOSE in DUST? Both are CQC.

As an HMG user I can admit to a slight range nerf, and a heat build up nerf, but you shotgun users can never admit to a nerf.

Don't worry, when the HMG gets nerfed, the next OP bandwagon gonna be the shotgun.

Tanks are way overpowered and that's been the case since the beginning of time.

What AR users have good kdrs that didnt play in closed beta, bet you can't name a single player with an AR thats putting up a high kid without a significant SP advantage...

I'm sure you've never used one, otherwise you'll KNOW they're not "fine". Ideally I can also say they're fine cuz I use them, but I know their range is ridiculous when skilled into it, plus the heat build up.

I've used shotguns before the last reset, and they are also ridiculous. People just don't want to admit their weapon of choice needs a tweak. If that's the case then STFU about other weapons needing a tweak.

Yeah AR's have no recoil, HMG's have too much range, shotguns have too much dmg over range, sniper rifles are too easy for the dmg they do, LR's heat build up is a joke also.

^ They're ALL my opinions, but at least I've used every one of them to have a valid opinion.

I can admit my weapon of choice needs a tweak, how many of you out there can admit that?

Hypocrites.

The fact that you said that shows you haven't played many corp matches against good teams / players.

And do you regularly kill people who've already spotted you? Or did you catch most of them off guard?

OMG nerf everything CCP then these OP threads will stop, make everyone run around in militia gear for a week or so and i bet these threads stop. You DEV's gotta be getting sick of these... LOL

Shot gun works as intended. Close range you die. Shoot them from afar they die.

(i dont have a scout) but do have an Alt with an HMG and if a scout gets me in close im fine with it. Mind u if i get them b4 they get me i dont wanna hear any crying.

Play the game get better and quit crying.

CCP do the militia idea. dont matter to me I did fine after every reset, at least its about skill/tactics/brains/B@lls for like a week after a reset, b4 all the no lifeing myself included. LOL
