I'd like to join in. I know I shouldn't judge people for how they choose to play, but Jesus Christ, fighting against shotguns isn't fun anymore! I'm tired of seeing Felwinter's Lie, Party Crasher +1, and Matador 64 every time I die. I'm not mad that people like to win, I'm mad that people are boring. Come on, be adventurous. Use a sidearm, or a fusion rifle, or take up sniping. I guarantee that with practice you can do well with any of these weapon types. I'm running Dreg's Promise and Queenbreaker's Bow (alternating) in the Crucible because it's fun to try out new playstyles and challenge my abilities. I actively avoid the "meta" weapon choices and builds because I want the game to be fun. I don't want easy mode, I want to feel like I'm honing my skills and improving.
Again, I know I'm an asshole for not liking how others play, but it affects me as well as everyone else, so I have just as much right to talk about it as everyone else. I am just excited for the Patch so we can see some diversity in the Crucible again.
Sorry for the rant

Personally I dont mind this one bit... there are plenty of weapons to counter this ... just keep distance ... they cant blink that far ... What is most frustrating are the player you shoot with a shotgun that dont die... they shoot you back with same shotgun .. same perks ... same distance and you die... That is what I face 50% of the games Im in ... so much fun... or shooting an entire clip in someone ... they appear to not be hurt... then they kill you... after you are dead (NO ONE AROUND) you see their health drop ... So the bullets I was shooting hit him 3 seconds later.... sure its a fair game like that... I have so many clips of this shit... toooooooooooooooo many ! Ill make a lagger compliation soon ... so many noobs bragging they are good on these platforms cuase they got a good KD ... On P2P networking where some players have pings 5 times lower then others... its not SKILL that makes the difference !!!!!!!!! its LAG !

Oh, believe me, I've learned how to counter shotguns. But, like you said, there are plenty of times where that isn't enough because it turns out some shotguns are effective at -blam!-ing long range. And I have experienced laggers only occasionally, but I love it when the whole team unloads into a guy who doesn't take damage. Again, I can't wait for Bungie to start fixing some of the major Crucible issues

Same here ... and the range on shotguns will indeed get fixed... Im hoping with you as well... but having played this game since launch a year ago... Ive seen to little change .. and lately the lagger problems are getting worse instead of better.. since more people learn how to cheat... and bungie is not reacting fast enough ...

Don't apologize. We're all mad here. Literally.
