Shotguns new meta
Bungie really needs to fix shotguns they wanna say they sandbox and field test this game but they dont see the problem with someone being able to run across the map and spray with a shotgun and wipe the team. All anyone uses is universal or secondary shotgun and camp or rush, try going into the crucible and not see a shotgun you cant because that's all anyone uses trials you want a guaranteed win just run universal and bam flawless there you go...you're kd or is low just put on a shotgun and there you go you are bow a God gg..fix your game bungie you supposedly always field test everything
Edit 1: everyone who says I'm bad makes me laugh my stats prove otherwise I play sweats in this game crucible is the only thing I do so when I make this post it's because of the way I see how crucible is going look mtashed planetdestiny crucible radio ms5000watts and all will agree how secondaries and right now shotguns being a problem
Edit 2: if you can't have decent and reasonable debate on the topic then save us all time and leave simple as that I've been since before dark below dropped so I've experienced all the changes with crucible so I do know what I'm saying

3 RepliesAll I usually see are snipers. A whole team of snipers that sit shoulder to shoulder and hard scope the whole game. Shotguns were nerfed more times than I can count. If you are still having a problem, consider changing games. The only time snipers were nerfed is when they gave shotguns THE SAME ammo nerf.... I don't understand you people. Somehow a sword is equal to a rocket launcher or heavy Mac gun, but shotguns should be melee only weapons?!

1 Replywere you here year 1? do you remember shot package+ range finder + rifled barrel..?. especially on a felwinter's lie?.. ^this still gives me nightmares.. right now i cant even kill / break a shield with a shotgun against a guardian 5 steps in front of me, i cant even kill them with a body shot or a headshot at close range it feels like RNG.. shotguns now is kinda meh. sidearms have too much recoil and fusion rifles are okay...kinda...

You think shotguns are bad right now? They've been nerfed into the ground, I'm sorry I don't use a sniper and sit in spawn but if you're bad enough for a shotgun to get point blank range, that's your fault
-
The thing is shots guns range has always been too long. Shot guns should do decent damage to you at like 5-15 feet away even if it's a head shot but it should never one shot you. There are about 6 shotguns out there that can one shot you with a body shot at like 13+ feet away which is totally unacceptable. At those ranges it should force you to scope and even then force a 2 shot kill. I hate it when I encounter these ninja ass holes with a shot gun that can somehow jump then resume in mid air and still target you from 15 feet away while in the air and one shot you. The range on shotguns is 100% inaccurate.

4 RepliesI hope shotguns become the meta [spoiler]at least I won't be shot from a sniper every time I run through a doorway[/spoiler]

The shot package nerf was already enough.

This forum is way to cringey for me.
-
You have one equipped on all 3 characters
-
Maybe they should make you melee after a sniper shot, just like you have to with a shotty from 1 foot to guarantee the kill

1 ReplyShotguns In real life have a kill distance of over 20 metres you complain about 3Feet omg Stop you are what's wrong with destiny.

Shotguns have been nerfed nine times, I'm sorry man, but they just can't get any worse... You are just going to have to accept that, while sniper rifles are overpowered as -blam!-, they aren't god mode and people will be able to close the gap and flank you. How much further can we go honestly? How many more nerfs before you figure out how to counter a rush?

Shotgun crucible is fun. You're going to die to special weapons sometimes, that's a fact of life... but at least against shotguns you can play smart/stay away from them pretty effectively if your want to. Sniper crucible sucks ass. Bitches strafing back and forth behind cover constantly, abusing little sniper crack sightlines, getting insta double body teamshot because the majority of the enemy team clumps up and scopes together and just all around passive play punishing anyone that actually TAKES A -blam!-ING RISK. I'll take shotgun meta anytime over sniper meta.
-
As bad as they've been nerfed, if you get killed by a shotty then it's something you did wrong.
-
More people are using it because it's a fun playstyle....doesn't mean it's OP. Snipers are still perfectly viable and there is 100 ways to counter a shotgunner.

Edited by duzton: 7/23/2016 3:17:54 AMThey've been nerfed over and over again. The range on them is decent now but the consistency is terrible. One time you can shoot someone from a little far off, other times you can't even kill them point blank. Reading the other comments you just sound salty because someone wrecked you with one. Edit: you say you play sweats with "highly skilled people" but you've barely won any of the games that you call sweats considering how long you've said you've been part of the community.

The games not made just for you bro. Dont like shotties? Dont play.

2 RepliesWell, it's official: We've made it to the point where people are calling for a nerf on UR. And it's not a joke, they're for real. Idk what happened but my best guess is that all the nerfing led to a nasty cycle that needs to stop. Sandbox caves in and nerfs shit, you complain more, they nerf more and on and on and on Sorry it's pissing you off and i'm glad you play "sweats", whatever the fuk those are, i'm sure you're very good.

4 Replies[quote]All anyone uses is universal or secondary shotgun and camp or rush[/quote] What other option is there besides camp or rush? You either wait for the enemy to come to you or go to them. Those are your options, regardless of what type of weapon you are using. I'm not really sure what you expect people to do that doesn't fall into one of those two categories... That being said, my experience in the crucible has been that players tend to use most of the secondaries fairly evenly overall. For every guy running around with a shotgun, I tend to see a guy rocking a sidearm or fusion the next game and usually doing pretty well with it. If anything, there is more of an abundance of snipers from game to game. Out of a team of six, I usually only see one or two shotties...

2 RepliesHoneslty, rushing shotgunners are the easiest to kill. Not only does it save time in the game but it gets your blood going good. I love when fgts complain about shotguns not taking skill, like please snipers in this game have so much aim assist.

1 ReplyJust use fusions.

1 ReplyMeet the new meta............ same as the old meta.

1 ReplyThey just need to Nerf the ammo capacity of universal remote. I can adjust to shot gunner's decently just be accurate on your primary, use choke points, sticky nades piss of shotgunners. Only problem is every time you spawn with universal u get like 17 rounds lol. It should be like every 3-4 times you spawn it'll refresh your ammo that way universal won't have all this ammo and if you run out of ammo you have to wait for your 3 or 4 the spawn for the refresh or actually go get a green crate of special
