I love Dust, really, my favorite game. But is it at all possible to give me all my shotgun skill points back? I've skilled into shotgun almost all the way, wasted loads of Skill points only to find out it's useless. Range of maybe 5 ft. I couldn't even kill a scout with 4 breach shells that made contact every time. Had to kill him SMG style. Anyway, maybe you should just remove the shotgun altogether and give us our points back, but one thing I know, I can't keep playing 'till this is fixed or my KDR will drop WAY too fast. I am literally putting the game aside till this is fixed to save my KDR. |

I hate the reason that you are doing it, because KDR whoring is a vile, nasty practice, but 5 feet? With Breach? Which are supposed to have longer reach than standard? That's pitiful :l
IRL, people use shotguns for hunting flying birds all the time. I wish that, just once, a game designer went out and fired one. Or at least used Google. |

KDR whoring is vile. I base my KDR on skill. I don't spawn camp or anything else, I focus entirely on survivability and accuracy. I can survive 10+ minutes but it means nothing if I can't kill anyone. I used to be able to go 20+ kills and 10- deaths. Not bad for a scout with no hp. |

If shotgun has as much range as nova knife, then they should at least make it as quiet as a nova knife... and also change it's name to nova knife. This game has been loads of fun, and I absolutely love it, but with all the mistakes I made with this char, I have worked really hard to recover my KDR from those mistakes. Now, if not for the frozen KDR bug, it would have been all for nothing. CCP's been great, I'm giving them a little more credit than to just leave, just gonna wait till it's better.
Also tested with the same corp-mate. Standing still, BREACH sg, at 20 he didn't feel my shot. not until about 15 did he feel the shot. The Scout that took 4 breach shells and SMG before he dropped was about half that range from me. |

i know, right? i get why ar's range got nerfed, but my trusty shotgun? this is ridiculous. ccp please be reasonable, give me back an option to sharpshooter my beloved shotgun or give it more range by default. OR else i'll cry to death.  |

Pretty sure my Militia, Standard and CRG-3 Shotguns are fine. I'm hitting solidly as hard as expected at about 5m. Outside of that, I'm less solid.
Sounds like all the people complaining about the range are used to Breach Shotguns having more range. Also sounds like they literally have no better than the standard Shotgun range. If that's the case, yeah, there's a problem. If you're legitimately struggling beyong 15 feet (which is close enough to 5m), then Breach Shotguns need a range buff because otherwise you're not getting nearly what you pay for. |

Confirmed!! I switched to the CRG today, works as expected! Breach range has been nerfed (possibly mistakenly). At this point Breach is useless, same range as all shotguns, slower shot rate, slower reload, 2 shell capacity, less spread (harder for close range). Fail. |
