The only real problem is special Ammo is everywhere at all times..
In a recent game I spawned literately next to a box of special ammo, ran for 4 seconds and there was another. Each box even gives you two magazines worth of ammo.
Not to mention they are on a 10 second timer themselves. Basically in the time it takes you to pick up the ammo, die, and respawn the boxes have already regenerated.
I've said it dozens of times now, but they either need to remove starting special ammo or increase the time it takes for the boxes to refill.
Either way it doesn't matter though, they look at the most used weapons and why and pretty much nerf them based on that and that is why shotguns have gotten two fall off damage nerfs since release.
