I dunno, shotgun is pretty noob. Right up there with flay and MD noobies IMO. Just another point-and-click class.

Well you get some points for not being a KB/M douche, but you still use a crutch weapon. Deny all you want, the shotgun is a noob OP weapon, especially when used with the scout suit which is very fast, and is usually combined with dampened profile (so sneaky ninja noobery is possible).

Just as bad as a core locus sitting on a nanohive spamming into chokepoints.

I love how everyone gives him **** about using contact grenades. Especially after he only switched to them once he died from contact grenades/mass driver rounds and people around him were dying to the same + proto FLPs. Rofl, gtfo

Hows that pot and kettle saying go again?...

EDIT: Heres an AAR (After Action Review) for those wondering the numbers. The main areas of engagement were in the city, specifically the window building at B and bridge building near A. C saw some heavy fighting as well. When looking at these numbers remember this was mainly a cqc engagement making HMGs/Shotguns/Explosives more effective. I didn't count the shotty deaths, but I did see a lot of those kills scrolling in the kill log. Also this video is from one view point, so some of the assists will not be included.

The numbers were pretty even. However TPs had a significant amount of shotgun/mass driver kills. This was offset by HL having some shotgun kills and quite a few tank kills.

Team Players:

Kills through contact grenades: 21
Known assists through contact grenade damage: 3
Kills through explosive weapons (Locus/MDs/FLPs/Remote Explosives, trap and defensive): 54

Hellstorm Inc:

Kills through contact grenades: 20
Known assists through contact grenade damage: 4
Kills through explosive weapons (Locus/MDs/FLPs/Remote Explosives, trap and defensive): 41

Just pointing out what you completely missed. I grouped all explosives together because in a cqc area like that giving lots of area for explosions near the target you're shooting around. Saying MDs require skill in situations like that is pretty dumb.

Now if we're on level ground 20 meters away from eachother and you kill with an MD...strong work. But whenever you rush around a corner and shoot in the general direction of someone in a room or near a wall and 'manage' to hit them with a 6.6 meter explosion range, thats not skill; thats just pulling the trigger. Look at the places where most of the fighting was happening. Area around A, B, and C. And all of those little corridors, rooms, walkways etc are around the detonation range of the freedom mass driver...

They made an excellent choice in using mass drivers in that situation, as the kills show it was very effective.

Also I love how you completely zoned out when you got to the AAR. Well partially true, you did mention that MDs take skill, and I'd argue thats not true in a cqc city map. This is the kinda thing you'd hear from a standard issue, unimaginative forum warrior.

Jesus...trolling really has gone down hill in the last 5 years hasn't it? At least keep your timelines straight. You hoped on here complaining about Caldari logi suits and spam, then jumped on Kujo for saying shotguns are ez mode...in this city map the definitely are. Then jump on me for pointing out that people saying "omg he spaming contact nades" should also say it about the other team or themselves since there was someone that was playing on the other team...ya know the one that actually used them more often.

Now to answer the terrible attempt at trolling...we do fine in LOI, and if we were a liability I doubt we would have been added to the alliance. If you can't see how a shotty/MD/contact grenades/FLPs are strong, and insanly strong on city areas like the one where the match was, then maybe u should go back to FB games...because trolling and FPS aren't in the cards for ya.

Yes. Aim at the shoulder that is furthest ahead in their line of movement (if they are moving to your left, aim at their shoulder thats on your left) and pull the trigger...its not hard to do unless ur garbage at tracking. Now you need to be able to shoot from 1-5 meters out, which in city combat is easy to do. Camp corners, boxes, force them into positions with nades, etc. Have you ever played an FPS at all? Or do you just fight the forum wars all day?

Lol. Ignoring what makes a shotgun strong in cqc.

And what does my spec have to do with anything smalls?
