Massive complaint. You took away one skill based tool, armor piercing rounds, providing a boost to less skilled tools to shotguns (who's nerf did little to the Feltwinter Iron Banner Shotgun). It was fun to predict where people where going to wander behind objects and even be fooled by them. LDR abuse? You can learn where not to stand. If you would take something from sniping, take away the final round perk that allows everyone to single body shot someone on a three shot magazine. You CAN'T appeal to EVERYONE in a game. YOU CAN"T make it so new players are completely on par with skilled players, without some form of skill ranking system, even a limited one. This was a fun element to the PvP game, not an overpowered option. [b]Shotguns[/b]: Statistically, you are never going to have an even population of weapons used. Auto Rifles were simply the easiest to understand for general use so new players had them equipped more often. Shotguns are similar when they can be coupled with sliding, blink, and melee's. Difference with shotguns is that they are a one shot kill, don't require much aim, and can effectively kill several players rather quickly if used effectively. If you'd like to increase the use of primary weapons, you lessen the effect of the lower skill, quick kill special weapons. This is why the removal of heavy ammo dropped from killed guardians makes sense. Cheers guys! No unnecessary harshness.
