After looking at a lot of the TTK reveal gameplay in pvp
it's safe to say shotguns are taking a big nerf
maybe the current felwinter like shotguns will be decent in normal crucible
but for ToO and competitive playlists , I fear the new TTK shotguns at max level will be underpowered
the range looks pathetic
to the point you can hold their hands rather than kill them
I'm scared that the reaction to them being OP has made them utterly useless
which is exactly what happened with Autorifles
now this is coming from a shotgun whore
admittedly,
but I believe shotguns were only OP due to small map design and crazy movement mechanics like blink and slide
both made gap closing skill-less and too easy
they're my favourite weapon to use
in all FPS
I don't want to see them nerfed to oblivion
save the shotguns for us shit-blam!-s who don't know how to snipe for crap

They used to be crap. The buff made them good. I'm a PvE player. They need to balance guns on PvP side only. Leave PvE alone. The weapons are used in different ways on both sides. I never used a shotgun forever cause they were junk on this side.

Nothing more satisfying than mowing down dumb ass shotgun runners. After 2.0 they won't have a clue what to do.

14 RepliesThe only thing I hate about shotguns in this game is the range. A shotgun should kill in one blast, if ur about 1-3ft apart, not 23ft. Some of them are a joke.

This is good

Fusion rifles will become viable again.

You do know that shotgun stats themselves are not in any way being changed in PvP, just two perks
-
you havent saw the stats of those shotgun...they dont have good range as other right now.... get all info before complaining
-
Can't wait for shotguns with slug rounds in destiny oh wait....theres one coming....

Too bad.
-
Well atleast they're close range now
-
I agree, yes I use shotguns but I think there ok as they are may need a slight range adjustment not nothing to big. Theres always gonna be something complain about .

3 RepliesEdited by JigglinJellycube: 8/28/2015 7:39:49 PMI don't give a damn about the pvp aspect. I'm -blam!-ing mad because if you think that's bad, it'll be 4x as terrible in pve. It's -blam!-ing pathetic that they won't separate the two.

You ever watched Xcalizorz? He's toned down on the shooters lately, but a few years back he was THE COD channel, and he was renowned for both being an asshole and using shotguns in every FPS

Edited by Chad: 8/28/2015 8:11:29 PMNothing wrong with shotguns being turned into close range weapons like they should be. Should never have range perks on them to begin with. Really can't wait to see the blink scrubs though in the new patch

Full-auto, high fire rate shotguns... Seems cool!
-
Shotguns are supposed to be close-range. From what I saw of E3 gameplay the range looked normal. Also, shotguns are more for coming around a corner and tailing an enemy.
