Wtf snipers??

Anyone else having problems lately with snipers? And by that I mean Shotguns. It seems Im getting sniped a lot more recently, a bump in range maybe? Every shotgunner seems to have enough balls to run through my bullets knowing hes going to live.

  • If you backpedal while shooting them in the head, a shotgunner will never kill you like that. I know that from being on the receiving end of a Monte Carlo while charging at them.

    • That crutch is about to go bye bye. When kids with no thumbs know they can run at you and eat bullets but 1 shot you before they die you know the game isn't balanced. I'm looking forward to more primary gunfights and hope the update is really soon. I had a blast on Black Ops 3 today so it may be too late.

    • I have no issues with shotguns, the only way you can be killed by a shotgun is by simply being outplayed. Snipers on the other hand are screwed up, let's take a look.....shotguns are only leathel at 6 or 8 feet away, fusion rifles maybe double that...some a bit future but have a charge time...takes a bit of skill to time. All rifles are right were they need to be yet snipers work at any range, scopes are clear at any range, they are the only rifle that isn't evan close to what the real weapon is like.....snipers need to change to fit their role, not be nerfed.

    • This happens to everybody. Shotgun scrubs are allowed to dominate in pvp right now because everyone cries nerf when we have a primary weapon that kills them. TLW used to keep them in check, now a handful of pulse rifles do, but it takes a little more skill that TLW, but they to are getting a nerf. Just try to stay somewhere where they can't pop around a corner and gotta land those headshots bro.

      • You know what I'm sick of hearing. Yall 1000 yards of infinite head shot users bitching about how shotguns require no skill. Please tell me again on how easy it is to kill someone up close in this game? Not very yet Yall bitches sit in the back with that "true gun skill". The -blam!- outta here, if you miss with that guy and suck bad. I don't even snipe and I can pick up that thing and collect headshots for days

          • One time for the sake of the joke I went in trials (on bannerfall) and went to the sniping ledge with my good rolled y2 party crasher. I got a triple kill.

            • Tried to play with a fusion earlier today and was getting sniped by a conspiracy theory. Switched to a better sniper in my Matador and never got out ranged again. They need to lower fusion rifle charge time and reduce the cone shape more.

              • #1 way to stop a shotgun = throwing knife. But yeah. The weapons team screwed up when they allowed the conspiracy theory to have so much range... Most other shotguns fall into line where they are supposed to be, it's just that one or two with the perfect roll that spoil it for everything else.

                • Shotguns are fine right now. On a different note about a week ago in doubles my teammate left so i was just screwing around dancing right outside of the salvage zone and i saw the two of them coming down some stairs and i quickscoped one of them and then the other one jumped up and without zooming out of my scope sniped the other one. Not really that impressive but it felt so cool

                  some seem to have more range. got sniped with conspiracy theory today I just hate getting sprayed by invective, that drives me nuts, it's like a sniper double tapping, just annoying and no skill

                • How about you switch to a primary if you miss the first shot instead of trying to mlg no scope 420 blaze it?

                  • So, you try to kill someone with a shotgun at close range with a sniper. You must be very smart.
