Has anyone else noticed people starting to slide shoot off a shotgun round and then melee all in one fluid motion?
*Note this is not a grief post just a question of curiosity

I got no problem with the shotgun damage but you shouldn't be able to hit both buttons at the same time. Seems like a glitch. It's not even a delay. I can press it at the same time and it will fire and melee in one action.

Join the club!

Myself and a friend were the ONLY ones doing this. Hadnt seen anyone else do it. Then two days later everyone was doing it. Legit 75% of people just run around with a shotgun now.
-
Yes. Its easy and effective.
-
Yea it's a good way to get in close and give a quick shotgun shell to the face and as soon your done you can melee really quick after allowing you to stand up.

I love the slide mechanic. Me and a buddy were playing rumble. He came around when I was charging my fusion riffle. He slides under my gun spraying, shotguns and melees me. I died, but I told him it was a sick kill.
-
yup.. mainly whore-locks...
-
Only way to use a shotty. I used to use one, but depending on the game I use a fusion rifle mostly
-
I do that except in a hunter esque manner. I'll use a fusion rifle, jump, then blink strike if I don't kill them.
-
It's actually a very good way to counter the titans shoulder charge ability if timed right.
-
They kind of promote it, the rare shotguns have an increased slide bonus I think
-
I've been doing that
-
Is this a moan thread? It's in the game and some even have a slide bonus it's a smart tactile move so why not employe it? Sure for those on the dying side it's annoying but adapt or die throw a grenade right in their path and the die before they even reach you it's a good way to deal with it.

Whiteboy 7thstrt did a video on it. He calls it the wambo combo. You shoot the shotgun an melee at the same time and it's extremely effective. It sucks when it's done to you though
-
I do that all the time.
-
Been doing it since beta it's really fun and changes stuff up some the guns have a quick draw and weapon switch it's hard to counter if someone has that setup.

That's me in a nutshell. #betalyfe
