I'm sure every meatshot scrub is going to come in and say 'durr, hurr, git gud! (I'm so witty! No one has EVER said 'git gud' before! I'm an insult MASTER! I'll use it on the playground at school tomorrow!)'
But seriously. Shotguns:
Require no aim (They can do all their damage from hip-fire)
Which means you can sprint and slide and double-jump nonstop because you never need to ADS
Thereby screwing up the aim of, you know, weapons that take skill to land a shot
And thus reward you for being a spaz with a oneshot to the body.
Snipers at least have to aim for the head; a small target, to get a oneshot.
Shotguns? Act like you froze, crushed, and snorted red bull, and be rewarded with free kills to the torso without aiming. So long as you can SEE the enemy, they die.
-blam!-ing no skill meatshot scrubguns should not be in PvP without a major rehaul.
What is the point of using ANY gun that requires aim and timing and -blam!-ing SKILL when you can zip around like a 12 year old on crack, poke people in the torso ONCE, and win?
Oh right; Bungie does not give a -blam!-. They have our money, they have their shitty little Everpurse. Who cares if PvP is a broken, hacker-filled, unbalanced joke?

It’s like whatever , if gay dudes wanna use shotguns than go ahead. Those idiots look stupid crouching walls and other cheap shit. They should nerf range and damage fall off but most likely they will.

Or you could learn to not whine and just kill the no skill weapon. I shut down shotguns with primaries all the time.

1 ReplyRemember in year 1 when the game was more balanced but people kept asking for special weapons back? This is what yall asked for so this is what you get.

Real talk. If I'm not good at using a shotgun in crucible, am I [i]no skill[/i] or [i]skill god?[/i]

You start with 2 rounds and if you miss you die. Maybe go play COD if you can't stand the heat.

3 Repliessays weapon takes no skill, yet is crying due to lack of skill at avoiding a "no skill" attack. someone has a real disconnect as to where the lack of skill lies.

2 RepliesEdited by SnakePayne86: 1/3/2019 6:21:09 AMIt’s Bungie a fault, they’ve basically made the easiest, least skilled weapon meta. I mean these are weapons that are rarely used in combat in real life and they run destiny. we are like 700 years into the future and the best weapon is a gun that’s used to kill pheasants. It’s ridiculous . Git gud Bungie.

What are you saying? Are they OP or garbage?
-
8 RepliesYeah, they are terrible op guns, honestly the only people I see use them are people who suck at the game, so there is that knowledge that by not using them, you are better at the game then the sucker who has to slide shotgun you or they'd never get any kills. Pity the people who use shotguns, its better to pity them.

Run in a straight line at me and kill me, I dare you, you won’t. It’s pretty easy to miss with a shotgun when you’re moving faster than the speed of light (something I like to do) and running in a straight line like everyone says you can do is bogus. You need good special awareness, and good mobility. If you can’t control your movement and dodge shots, you’re going to die. Signed, a former sniper main that conformed to the meta

16 Repliessays it all.

Think what you want, reality often isn’t so kind

They’re not Op at all. It’s just these maps, they’re so small that it actually helps shotties flourish. Remember these maps were originally for 4v4. So it’s a cluster-blam!-

8 RepliesShots may not take too much skill but they have a high skill gap
-
Well if they're garbage, and you get killed by them, what's that say about you? I don't get why people use garbage as an insult when someone kills them, you call yourself worse then garbage by doing so.

Don't play quickplay , let quickplay die from lack of player base , play anything but .. I don't have issues with any other PVP mode , that has more 1v1 gun battles , less players on a map , leads to shot gun guys not able to close the gap on unsuspecting players who are either engaged in a fight or are damaged and weakened .. That's where these guys feast , running the edges of the maps , sliding and killing unsuspecting players during a choatic match

1 ReplyNo, shotguns can take a backseat when it comes to higher levels of comp, which is an entirely different demon. Telesto and wavesplitter , coupled with one eyed mask and hunters left and right, comp can go -blam!- itself. You either die at the hands of telesto or play long enough to wield one. Not complaining, more annoyed there is zero diversity.

Can’t get killed by a shot gun if you don’t play the game 👉🏾😏

Shotguns have stupid range. I hate getting spammed twice with full auto at stupid ranges. Full auto shotgun should have much less range.

1 ReplyOof, look at all these comments that claim shotguns take skill. This is hilarious

Please cry more, it does the toxic community wonders the more you cry about a game type that’s name clearly says it all. Competitive! Durrr git Gudd. Guud at reading you damned potatoe. People will try to do anything by any means to win in Comp. If you rather try hard with whatever weapons you “think” you are good with continue to do so with the same results. So idk nutt up or shut up? What in Reading from all these crying babies is “bungie I’m so Terrible , please please give me Luna’s howl” you don’t deserve the gun. So you do not have the gun. End of f-n story broodie.
