[spoiler]This poll is only here to give a general idea of what the community thinks. The important part is the discussion. (Feel free to change your answer at any time.)
Edit: Someone pointed out that the last option says make twice. Just try to ignore that.[/spoiler]
The point of this discussion is for us to share our opinions about this shotgun and possibly work out a solution for how Bungie, or the community, should deal with it.
Rules:
1) Please respect everyone's opinion (you can disagree, but be mature about it)
2) Please don't insult or place any blame on anyone (it will just lead to fights that won't get us anywhere)
Edit: Here is a list of ideas everyone has suggested.
Decrease the range
Remove/adjust perks that increase range
Use fusion rifles instead of Felwinter's
Buff auto rifles/fusion rifles so there is a good counter
Add bigger maps
Use other shotguns with range perks to counter
Make all of its stats worse than other shotguns
Avoid close quarters
Add custom/private games with modifications like no shotguns
Swap the range of high impact shotguns with the low impact shotguns
Just leave it alone
[spoiler]Some ideas may seem better than others. I am just listing them all.[/spoiler]
Edit: I made a poll for people to vote for the best solution. Thanks for all of your input.

4 RepliesIt's a stat padder right now. I saw a guy running it yesterday who had a career KD under 1 but with FW he was getting above 4.0 in the match. It is frustrating but shouldn't be nerfed. Sure it's got ridiculous range, but it's the custom rerolled perks that stretch the playstyle of the shotguns. The only solution I see for it is to buff the weapons meant to counter shotguns. ARs no longer have the stopping power to drop the Rush playstyle. Buff autos and you'll see them being countered better. If they nerf hand cannons right now, there'll be no escape.
