Shotguns are absolutely bullshit

Doesn't matter if you're 2ft away or 200ft away, a -blam!-ing shotgun will win every -blam!-ing battle against everything except SOME supers and heavies. this game will always be complete trash until you balance this bullshittery. sadly this game is the only thing I have that's slightly playable so naturally I have to bitch and moan about it.

  • 0 years on bnet! Hmmm I don’t use shotguns myself but in no way are they hard to combat! You need to stop crying and improve your game

      I have been having a different experience. With the exception of a skilled Chaperone user with the Roadborn perk active, I have been thoroughly entertained by the amount of babies running around with flashlights getting melted before they can close the distance. For me (as a Titan main), strafe jumping backwards and emptying a clip of sidearm into rushers makes hilariously short work of these idiots. I'll grant that there is almost nothing that can be done when point-blanked by rushing blind corners or melted by skilled blink shotty Warlocks, but a playstyle adjustment should mitigate some of the threat. The sliding / rushing / jumping idiots are incredibly entertaining to ruin once you are able to adjust. Perhaps try slowing things down a little for a while until you get a sense of how you lose these engagements and adjust accordingly. I promise they can almost all be countered (with the exception of highly skilled players).

    • Get your facts straight before you start spitting bullshlt, every battle? So why isn't a shotgun used for every raid boss? How come everyone isn't using shotguns if they can outplay snipers and scout rifles at an extended range? And for the 2 ft, obviously, thats how shotguns fcking work

      • Yeah....no. I gun down shotgunners on the regular with SMGs and hipfiring redrix or trust. Nope, play better.

        • I agree that shotguns are bullshit to fight, but you have to know how to counter. Fusion rifles are great for it, but they’d be better if their scavenger perks actually worked...

          • If you can’t kill a shotgunner running at you, then you just need to play better.

          • Nah shotguns are in a good place. I rather face shotguns then snipers anyday of the week. There easy to counter. Sidearms work wonders. Back up and shoot.

          • Every battle against everything? Yeah, not even close, I think you just can't play against a shotgun worth a damn. You have summoned me.

          • Wow. Such emotion. To bad it diminishes the actual factual basis of any kind. [quote]a -blam!-ing shotgun will win every -blam!-ing battle against everything[/quote] This is completely untrue. I melt shot-gunners with Sidearms and Fusions. If I'm accurate enough I can do it with my primary. If I get myself into a position to be shotgunned it's my own fault. I was hugely against the changes to special weapons exactly because I was afraid if it becoming a shotgun fest. I've come to find it's really not that bad. Just stop rushing up to people.

          • The problem is that they still act as the heavy weapons they were. They need to be special weapons in the special slot not heavy weapons in the special slot.

            • ... Yeah, shotguns are easy to beat, just don't try and ape with a scout rifle, just play your distance right and you will never lose, if you like to be in the thick of it, throw on a full auto sidearm, or just a side arm, or a fusion, or a smg, it's not that hard...

            • I been saying the same thing, however you are going to get the kids that don’t know how to aim and use shotguns tell you it’s a l2p issue. Shotguns shouldn’t 1 tap and the range needs to be reduced.
