Shotgun sliding doesnt feel like it was nerfed that hard
Jesus i might as well be digging my own grave considering 98% of people inside PvP use a shotgun.
But bro everyone might as well get an exotic that puts wheels on ur butt cause thats pretty much how everyone looks. Got the new shotgun from this season and back up plans and i spent 10 games just driving over everyone.
AND why tf are they trying to act like there nerfing shotguns but then put an exotic in that PROMOTES shotgun aping and a new shotgun with the most infamous perk rolls on it....... just me wondering that oorrrr?
that is all *picks up shovel* time to start digging i guess.
Edit1) since people are literally aping the comments XD im not "Attacking" your precious playstyle, im questioning why Bungo is pretending to fix something but then double down on weapons and exotics that promote the playstyle. smh

2 RepliesEdited by Freak: 9/8/2021 6:06:58 PMThey literally said it “It looks worse on paper than it feels in game.” They didn’t want to completely neuter shotguns. Or the playstyle. Shotties have literally been Nerfed every which way Except into a coffin and you’re still here crying about them. NO WEAPON IN THIS FRANCHISES HISTORY HAS BEEN NERFED AS MANY TIMES AS SHOTGUNS yet here you are. Maybe you should look inward instead of blaming a weapon. Let them kill Shotties, you’ll just be right back in here crying about the next best thing. It’s gunna be a WormWood meta all over again. GL with that…

1 ReplyI feel the nerf. I feel it but it’s not oppressive. I can’t slide with a shotgun and get a guaranteed kill when I’m not basically inside the person I’m trying to kill. I don’t LOVE how it feels when I’m right in someone’s face and they don’t die because I slid, but I appreciate that I’m able to survive such attacks now in the like and can tolerate it in that vein. When not sliding, shotguns feel like they pack the same punch and consistently OHK. This change made me pull out my shotguns with full choke. Prior to now I never noticed much difference between full choke and rifled barrel performance, but now full choke seems to be THE BETTER option for consistency. Semi-unrelated: It also seems like the range stat is somewhat worthless on shotguns now. Not sure if that’s my perception or reality, but it feels like it.

3 RepliesYet again another crybaby that doesn’t know what back peddling is and shooting a primary is against someone who apes… Heaven forbid me saying shotguns need a buff cause they have been the most nerfed secondary in the game. If you still get killed by shotguns that’s your problem

5 RepliesMeanwhile, I got a Fractethyst that's BUILT for slide-shotgunning. Full Choke, Assault Mag, Slideways, or the other one forget which, it reloads a shot and boosts range, and opening shot. I'm disgusted that I got that roll, but it's too good to just delete out of hand.

1 ReplyI put down shotguns a while ago. Got sick of the ape or be aped play strat. Anymore I use a sidearm as a secondary, occasionally a fusion rifle. Got a decent PvP oriented Fractethyst to drop last night and figured I’d give it a try and see what this slide/shotgun nerf was about (cos it certainly didn’t seem different). Takeaway - it’s almost exactly the same as pre nerf. There were a few kills that had to be cleaned up with a melee, but mostly, sliding into the engagement with a shotgun pretty much guarantees you the kill. What I don’t get is how people think it’s fun or skillful. At least a fusion rifle has charge time that you have to adapt around. It’s so much more satisfying shutting down a rusher with Fools Remedy or Travelers Chosen and knowing I had to work to maintain the gap and actually track my target vs point, click, profit. Pea brained unga bunga caveman -blam!-.

That's because it wasn't. Similar to how everyone lost their minds over stability changes before Beyond Light only to find out it made no real difference.

Who would've guessed that fighting the symptoms would solve nothing? They need to go for the actual problems, which are the maps themselves and special ammo economy.

32 RepliesBecause shotguns take no skill that’s why everyone uses them. Same with HC. And for those who wanna debate me go ahead, try. Yu know yu can’t 🤣

Well yeah because backup plans are blatantly overpowered

Slide could have a 100% flinch nerf and people would still use the slide to shotgun. Sliding in destiny is a way of life at this point, its impossible to remove that habit after so many years. The only way bungie can truly nerf slide shotgun is to actually reduce the distance traveled by the slide itself and adding a 3 second cool down to slide again.

Needs to be nerfed more
-
Its because shotguns are still the simplest special to run. Some one skilled with a gl or sniper has a noticable gap vs some one who barely runs them. Fusions have some rng and some practice to get good. Shotguns are just point and shoot when close enough
-
1 ReplyIt's because sliding isn't the problem. Nobody is complaining about slide fusion, or slide snipes, or slide pulse rifle lol

9 RepliesI'm curious what infamous perks Are you talking about? No trolling just wanna know.
